1972 - Ford Mustang on 2040-cars
Porterville, California, United States
1972 Ford Mustang Mach1. Original delivery shows it going to a southern, California dealership. To my knowledge, always a California car and in the same county. Features a 351 Cleveland motor with automatic transmission and a 4 barrel upgraded carburetor that was put in by the previous owner. Engine runs strong, I have never had an issue with it, and well-maintained for long road trips. Has approx. 113,500 original miles. I have had it for a few years and in that time I have replaced; brakes (pads, rear drum brakes, shoes, master cylinder, and more), new ignition switch, belts, hoses, Optima battery, battery cables, voltage regulator, and more. Interior dash was repainted same color (black) a few months ago. Has an aftermarket touchscreen radio that features AM/FM CD, DVD, Bluetooth, Pandora Radio, USB slot, and Auxiliary port. Also has a nice rear-view camera setup so that you can easily back up without worrying about seeing through the rear-window louvers. The backup camera also has a switch so that it can be turned on while in any gear (pretty cool!). Interior is in really nice condition other than the two panels in the rear area that are missing, as stated in the defects section. No windshield wiper setup and horn not setup. Please see photos and ask any questions. Exterior is also in very nice condition. I've tried to show every angle and be very thorough with my details, but at the same time the car is in really nice shape for being over forty years old. As mentioned, paint is about six years old (previous owner painted it) and does have a few spots that can be touched up. This is very similar to original color other than the gloss coat added, as I discovered while reviewing the paint code on the vehicle and Marti Report. Vehicle comes with the Marti Report, which shows a lot of specifics of the car and rarity (1 of only 307 built that year with these paint and trim codes). I can provide you with a copy of that prior to selling, upon request. Rear window louvers have been powder-coated to prolong the quality. Wheels and tires are in really good shape as well. The rims are original, NOT aftermarket. As stated, this car is in really great shape inside and out, and am looking for a good home for it to go to. I have done several car shows over the past several years, including winning a lot of awards.

Ford making Fusion production moves to challenge Camry on volume
Mon, 26 Aug 2013The Ford Fusion may already beat the Toyota Camry in terms of models offered, transaction price and sales increase so far this year, but if the Fusion wants to make a run at the title of best-selling car in the US, Bloomberg reminds us that volume is key. Opening a second production line at the Flat Rock, MI assembly plant will reportedly allow Ford to produce around 350,000 Fusions annually, which compares Toyota's ability to crank out 475,000 Camrys and Honda's capacity to build around 450,000 Accords.
For the Fusion, that's an extra 100,000 units compared to the car's current pace, and the article adds that the Fusion is "Ford's best shot" to regain the passenger car sales crown - a title it (or any other US automaker, for that matter) hasn't held since the mid-1990s. Despite hiccups with recalls and fuel economy numbers, the Ford Fusion is still red hot when it comes to sales. Fusion sales are up 13 percent so far this year (compared to a 0.6 percent decrease for Camry), and its average transaction price of $26,343 is about $2,300 more than its rival from Toyota.
The Fusion's popularity has helped Ford improve its sales in California; the Dearborn-based automaker has a market share of 18 percent in the state, which is just a fraction of a percentage behind Honda. And this popularity should continue as Ford ups Fusion production and expands the model lineup even further for 2014 with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine soon to become an option.
Ford-sponsored survey says a third of Brits have snapped a 'selfie' while driving [w/videos]
Fri, 08 Aug 2014Talking on the phone while driving isn't advisable, and texting while driving is downright dangerous. Considering those truths, the fact that we even need to point this out this is incredibly disturbing: taking "selfies" while behind the wheel is exceptionally stupid. But, it's a thing that a third of 18- to 24-year-old British drivers have copped to doing, according to a new study from Ford.
Ford, through its Driving Skills for Life program, surveyed 7,000 smartphone owners from across Europe, all aged between 18 and 24, and found that young British drivers were more likely to snap a selfie while behind the wheel than their counterparts in Germany, France, Romania, Italy, Spain and Belgium.
According to the study, the average selfie takes 14 seconds, which, while traveling at 60 miles per hour, is long enough to travel over the length of nearly four football fields (the Ford study uses soccer fields, but we translated it to football, because, you know, America). That's an extremely dangerous distance to not be focused on the road.
Ford recalling 850,000 cars and SUVs for airbag issues
Fri, 26 Sep 2014Ford has announced a major recall of 850,000 vehicles from model years 2013 and 2014 due to a problem with the "restraints control module."
According to Ford, a short circuit could develop in the module, causing the airbag warning light to illuminate. In more severe cases, dependent on where the short develops, the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioners may not work in the event of an accident. The problems can be more wide-ranging than that, too, as systems that rely on information from the control module, such as the stability control can be affected.
With 850,000 vehicles affected, it's no surprise that some of Ford's volume leaders are covered. That includes the Fusion and Lincoln MKZ sedans, as well as the incredibly recall-prone Escape and the C-Max MPV.
