This is a numbers matching, authentic Mach I. I am just the 3rd owner of this is a 56,000 original mile car. It was originally purchased locally, and cared for meticulously since day one. Extremely rare color combo, and in my humble opinion, the nicest. Wimbeldon white, with red leather. It has the 302, C6 automatic combo, and both of them perform FLAWLESSLY. I can't emphasize that enough. One pump, she fires right up on high idle. Another tap, and it idles down perfectly. When it's warm, one touch of the ignition, and it starts like it's fuel injected. Just had a complete tune-up. Plugs, points, wires, cap and rotor, oil change, etc. Belts and hoses all recent as well. Without any exaggeration, this car runs, shifts, and drives PERFECT. There is ZERO slop in the front end. Very tight, and tracks and stops perfectly straight, It has drums all around, and the shoes, wheel cylinders, and tires are all less than two years old. It is an absolute pleasure to drive, which makes it really hard to to sell. Only selling because I need cash to put down on a house, or I'd be keeping this car for sure. The car was painted about 5 years ago, and the paint looks FANTASTIC. It was a professional, bare metal, $8,000 job. No checking, scratches, or swill marks whatsoever. The pictures don't do it justice. There are a few little nicks here and there, and a few bubble spots, but otherwise perfect. I took pics of the flaws. A few really small ones on the corner of the hood, and a spot on the bottom rear panel, for which I have a new patch panel. It's only a small area in the black portion. The other side is mint. One other small one next to the deck lid. All the chrome and stainless trim is excellent. The chassis, frame and floors are GREAT, with the exception of the area around the driver's floor. A small portion of the driver's floor is soft, but I have a brand new floor pan. The most common issue with these uni-body Stangs is the frame in the same area, near the steering box. The previous owner was smart enough to recognize it, and had a piece of channel professionally welded under and over it, so that it would NEVER be a problem. I took a pic of this as well. This car is VERY structurally sound, and there are NO other soft spots. The floors, trunk, doors, and rockers are all rock solid. Inside, it's very nice. Seats look almost new, door panels are nice, and the dash is almost perfect. I say almost because there is one small spider-sized crack. Very easy repair. Everything works. Lights, gauges, radio, horn, heat, etc. Windows all go up and down smooth, and all the glass is perfect. No cracks, nicks, or clouding. Even the weather stripping is all nice. The headliner needs replacing, and I have a brand new one. I also have a brand new black carpet set, with factory Mustang inlays. The carpet in it now is ok, but I planned on installing the new floor pan, so new carpet seemed logical. I also have a complete new dual exhaust, and the correct rear valance with the dual cut-outs. Nothing wrong with the exhaust on it now, just wanted duals. All in all, this a VERY nice, VERY sharp Mach, that with just a little more TLC would be a stunning car. It only needs a few things, and a good detail. Don't let the fact that it's a small block fool you. It WILL lay down a patch of rubber, and set you back in your seat when it drops down into passing gear. Best of all, it gets nearly twice the gas mileage of a big block, which means more time cruising. This is a real auction, which means NO RESERVE. High bidder drives it home. I wouldn't hesitate to drive it ANYWHERE. If needed, I will help in any way I can with shipping. Only cash or certified checks, and paid in full within 5 days. If you aren't sure if you will have the money, DO NOT BID. I have zero tolerance for having my time wasted. That all said, bid with confidence. No dissapointments with this beauty, and my feedback speaks for itself. Any questions, feel free to call or text me anytime. My name is Jim, and my # is (585)261-6547.

I just want to add a few things. The body on this car is lazer-straight! All the body gaps are perfect, and the doors open and close perfectly. NO drop in them at all, as is common in these heavy doors. The interior is darker than the pics show. More of a blood red. I also have brand new door sill plates. In all, I have close to $1,000 on extra brand new parts going with the car. It has power steering, but not power brakes. Don't let the manual brakes discourage you. This car stops GREAT. This being a 302 car, the front end is lighter, and these cars are light to begin with. What the 302 loses in a few horses to the 351, it more than makes up for in handling, gas mileage, and reliablity. I've owned some 50 classic and muscle cars, most of them very nice, and this is the best driving one I've ever owned. It's really hard to find an old car that doesn't have some issue with the front end, brakes, steering, vibration, etc. This one has NONE. It literally drives like NEW.

Consumer Reports no longer recommends Honda Civic

Mon, Oct 24 2016

Consumer Reports annual Car Reliability Survey is out, and yes, there are some big surprises. First and foremost? The venerable publication no longer recommends the Honda Civic. In fact, aside from the walking-dead CR-Z and limited-release Clarity fuel-cell car, the Civic is the only Honda to miss out on CR's prestigious nod. At the opposite end there's a surprise as well – Toyota and Lexus remain the most reliable brands on the market, but Buick cracked the top three. That's up from seventh last year, and the first time for an American brand to stand on the Consumer Reports podium. Mazda's entire lineup earned Recommended checks as well. Consumer Reports dinged the Civic for its "infuriating" touch-screen radio, lack of driver lumbar adjustability, the limited selection of cars on dealer lots fitted with Honda's popular Sensing system, and the company's decision to offer LaneWatch instead of a full-tilt blind-spot monitoring system. Its score? A lowly 58. The Civic isn't the only surprise drop from CR's Recommended ranks. The Audi A3, Ford F-150, Subaru WRX/STI, and Volkswagen Jetta, GTI, and Passat all lost the Consumer Reports' checkmark. On the flipside, a number of popular vehicles graduated to the Recommended ranks, including the BMW X5, Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and Cruze, Hyundai Santa Fe, Porsche Macan, and Tesla Model S. Perhaps the biggest surprise is the hilariously recall-prone Ford Escape getting a Recommended check Â– considering the popularity of Ford's small crossover, this is likely a coup for the brand, as it puts the Escape on a level playing field with the Recommended Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Nissan Rogue. While Ford is probably happy to see CR promote the Escape, the list wasn't as kind for every brand. For example, of the entire Fiat Chrysler Automobiles catalog, the ancient Chrysler 300 was the only car to score a check Â– there wasn't a single Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Maserati, or Ram on the list. That hurts. FCA isn't alone at the low end, either. GMC, Jaguar Land Rover, Mini, and Mitsubishi don't have a vehicle on CR's list between them, while brands like Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Nissan, Lincoln, Infiniti, and Cadillac only have a few models each.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
