1968 Mustang Coupe

SHOW IT, DRIVE IT, ENJOY IT…AN AWESOME MUSTANG 

My name is John.  Please call me at 801-680-8447 with any questions

 

This is a beautifully restored example of 1968 Mustang Coupe in remarkable condition. It runs great, drives great, looks great, and the attention it gets is extreme!

No Disappointments: This Mustang is a great investment and a fun car to drive and enjoy. From the engine compartment to the trunk and everywhere in between, this is a clean car. 

The following will be a description of each area of the car, being as in-depth and accurate as possible. Please keep in mind that this is a classic car that is over 45 years old, and although I will describe everything as best I can, some small items may have been overlooked.

BODY:

As you can see from the photos, this Mustang has an absolute gorgeous body.  This year, the car was media blasted to bare metal and professionally painted in the deep dark red that you see now.   There is no paint bubbling anywhere on the outside body panels with the exception of the lower driver door.  This is very minor.  I could not get the picture to pick it up.  There are a few ripples and small dings. The underside is 99% all original sheet metal, with great frame rails, strong torque boxes and undercarriage.  The floor pans are original and very strong.  No Rust or ROT.  The trunk drop offs have been professionally replaced.  The panels on this car show great fit and are straight.  I would rate it a solid driver quality paint and body 8 out of 10.

INTERIOR:

·         The interior is professionally restored in 2013 with  new soft trim including:      

·         Upholstery

·         Dash Pad

··         Headliner

·         Carpeting

· ·    Antenna


All gauges work as they should.  The horn works.  All windows roll up and down properly and easily.  The front grill is new, from a 2005 GT Mustang.  New HALO lights in the grill.

ENGINE / MECHANICS:

The 5.0L EFI  engine was installed from a 1994 Mustang.   The car runs strong and fast.  There are no fluid leaks, or smoke.  New 17 inch Eleanor wheels and tires on all four corners.  the odometer state 02698.  There is 102.698 miles on the car and approx 50,000 miles on the engine.  This car has a new wire harness installed. 

This Coupe starts at the flick of the key and runs strong and smooth.  The car tracks straight and brakes straight, has good steering response and a nice ride. The C4 automatic transmission shifts very responsive and smooth. The engine compartment is clean, and detailed. Front drum brakes and rear drum brakes.  Suspension and is firm and responsive to the touch.  The car runs and drive like new.  Fly in and drive home this mechanically sound automobile.

 

TRUNK:

The trunk area is very clean, detailed, and looks great. There is not even a hint of rust.  No spare tire or jack.  No issues here, the pictures of the car speak for themselves.

OVERALL:

The car of course gets lots of looks, it's really what I'd call the perfect collector car: a super desirable 1968 Mustang Coupe that is a super nice driver with a 2013 restoration.  This car is mechanically sound and runs fantastic.  The title is free and clear in my hand.

Formula Drift kicks off 11th season on Streets of Long Beach

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The 2014 Formula Drift series kicked off last weekend in Long Beach, and saw Chris Forsberg, who you'll recall went mad and drifted around a warehouse in an Infiniti M, take the title behind the wheel of his Hankook Tire Nissan 370Z (shown above).
Forsberg really ran away with the first round of competition, outscoring his closest opponent, second-place finisher Kenneth Moen and his Bridges Racing Nissan 240SX, by 20 points. Third place was 2013 championship winner Michael Essa and his Yokohama BMW M3, 30.5 points behind Forsberg.
In the manufacturers' title, Nissan took an early lead with 122 points, which isn't a huge surprise considering five of the top ten drifters were piloting either a Z or a product of the brand's S platform. Ford, which had two drivers (Justin Pawlak and Vaughn Gittin, Jr.) in the top ten, took home second place, while BMW is currently third in the manufacturers' standings.

Ford EcoBoost successful because of Soviet laser weapons system expert?

Sun, 28 Jul 2013

Mike Kluzner is a man of many talents. Not only is he the software engineer responsible for fuel system diagnostics for Ford globally, he "got his start designing laser weapon systems capable of disabling the navigation systems of enemy satellites" for the former Soviet Union. Quite a résumé, wouldn't you say?
You may be asking yourself the same question that popped into our minds upon reading about Mr. Kluzner: What do laser weapon systems have to do with Ford and its EcoBoost engines? We'll let the man answer himself. "The same process for analyzing key physical relationships works for what we do today in engine combustion, catalyst chemistry and mechanics," says Kluzner. "These are all part of Ford's software engineering expertise." Who are we to argue?
Ford also employs an engineer who previously designed software to detect damage to the heat tiles on the International Space Station, as well as one who's past work involved particle physics, says the automaker in the press release below. David Bell (pictured above right), global boost system controls engineer for Ford, describes the software running EcoBoost as "the secret sauce" that makes the technology work as the driver intends and demands.

Ford confirms launch of new Tourneo vans and Ecosport in Europe for Geneva

Sun, 24 Feb 2013

We've already seen plenty of what the Geneva Motor Show will have in store for us in less than two weeks, but most of the confirmed debuts that were announced so far have generally been luxury or performance cars. Ford, on the other hand, will be showing off a couple of its new family-friendly models for European buyers to enjoy.
On the larger side of things, the full range of Tourneo vans (shown above) will be on display, including the introduction of the new Tourneo Courier model, but Ford will also be showing off the all-new EcoSport crossover, which is based on the automaker's Global B platform and will be positioned beneath the Kuga, better known here as the Escape. The subcompact EcoSport was originally unveiled at the Beijing Motor Show last April.
