1976 Ford Mustang II Cobra with a 302 V8 and Automatic Transmission

I am told the following was done before it was parked several years ago:

  • Engine block boiled with new freeze plugs & cam bearings.
  • Cam & New Lifters
  • Crankshaft Reconditioned
  • Overhaul Engine Kit - New pistons, rings, Connecting rods & Main bearings, Oil pump, Timing Chain, Gasket set.
  • New Radiator
  • Milidon Oil Pan
  • Rebuilt Carburetor
  • Rebuilt Automatic Transmission

I have never received any documentation to prove the work listed above and I have never started or driven the car.

Note: Included is the very rare Aluminum Rear Window Louvers and a brand new front spoiler (note: I was told the spoiler is for this model Mustang but cannot guaruntee it)

Please note that this car is being sold in non running condition and I am making no representations or warranties as to its condition.

VEHICLE IS BEING SOLD "AS IS, WHERE IS, and WITH ALL FAULTS"

I recommend and encourage any prospective buyers to thouroghly and personally inspect the car prior to placing any bids.

Unless you have made arrangements with me prior to bidding the car must be paid for in CASH upon in person pickup or if shipping must pay with cashiers check and allow 7 to 10 days for check to clear prior to pickup. ( absolutely NO PAYPAL, Personal CHECKS, MONEY ORDERS, etc.).

Vehicle must be picked up within 7 to 10 business days of auction end. After 10 days a storage fee of $25 per day will accrue and vehicle will not be released until storage fee is paid.

Note that paint appears better in pictures than it actually is - looks like it may have been partially repainted and sprayed with a clear coat - the clear is yellowed and chipping with numerous scratches and small dents - I would characterize rust as being minimal for this year car as they tended to be very rust prone. Interior is likewise rough with torn seats and missing carpet etc.

I added a picture of the Mustang II Cobra with Farrah Faucett on the hood for those of us who remember Charlie's Angels.

Several Mustang / Ford Brochures are also included ( see picture )

Please note that I poured a little gas into the carburetor and connected a battery and it did start and run momentarily and sounded pretty good.. Because it has been sitting for so many years I suspect the gas in the tank is bad - plus it smells aweful.

 

I tried the brakes and they seem to be working with decent pedal.

Watch how Ford torture-tested the 2015 F-150

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

The Ford F-150 has been the best-selling truck in the United States for the past 37 years, and the best-selling vehicle outright for the past 32. That's quite a legacy, and thus, it's no surprise that Ford worked super-duper-extra hard on creating the all-new, aluminum-bodied 2015 F-150 that debuted at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
During an event at the company's headquarters in Dearborn, MI this week, we were able to see all of the ways that Ford endurance tests, not just the new F-150, but all of its vehicles. From examining things like light exposure to interior materials and paint finishes, to making sure that corrosion absolutely does not happen when steel components come in contact with aluminum panels in the new truck. The goal: ensure that the new F-150 is nothing short of "Built Ford Tough."
But that's only a small part of the story. Of course, the new F-150 has to be able to withstand whatever a pickup buyer might throw at it - and truck buyers arguably demand the most from their vehicles. So in an effort to convey just what the new F-150 had to go through before being given the final go-ahead, Ford has released a series of videos, showing how its new halo truck was indeed torture tested.

2014 Ford Fusion to get 1.5L EcoBoost three-cylinder?

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Just one year after launching the all-new 2013 Fusion, Ford is reportedly set to alter the sedan's powertrain lineup with the addition of a new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. A member of Blue Oval Forums apparently got their hands on the ordering guide for the 2014 model year Fusion, and this 1.5-liter mill is set to be introduced with late availability.
This lines up with other news about the Chinese-market Mondeo being offered with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost - a derivative of the 1.0-liter triple that will come to North America under the hood of the Fiesta (note: the 1.0 is also offered in the current Euro-spec Mondeo). In the Chinese application, the larger three-pot engine produces 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, which is very close to the current 1.6-liter inline-four's output numbers of 178 hp and 184 lb-ft.
What's interesting, however, is that the 1.6-liter engine will reportedly still be offered in the Fusion, but only with the six-speed manual transmission. The smaller 1.5-liter EcoBoost will only be mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic, and will feature start/stop. This means that while the 1.5 is slightly down on power compared to the 1.6, it could easily improve fuel economy numbers, allowing the Fusion to regain the title of having the best mileage in the segment, likely besting the 38 miles per gallon of the Nissan Altima. Currently, the Fusion 1.6 is rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.
