1985 Mustang Gt, 5.0 Ho Convertible on 2040-cars
San Antonio, Texas, United States
This is my restored 1985 Mustang GT, 5.0 H.O. Convertible. For those of you out there looking to buy this car wholesale, you just as well stop reading right now. I'm not selling to give it away. I'm selling to make money off of my hard work and investment.I do not have to sell this car,so don't look here for a bargain. With that said, for those of you wanting a nice car, I purchased this car off an Ebay auction and have went through the entire car and invested over $10,000 and many hours along the way. I don't have to sell the car for anyone looking for a bargain.The engine and transmission were professionally overhauled locally.The original CFI set up was converted to an Edelbrock intake with a 600 cfm Edelbrock Carburetor. All new. This is a numbers matching engine and transmission. I have replaced the top with a glass rear window. Factory fog lights w/covers. It has a new tinted winshield. The struts and shocks on all four corners are all new as well as the front disc brake pads and rotors and the rear wheel drum brakes and new drums & all attaching springs, etc. The exhaust is new with headers and dual Flow Masters. There is no catalytic converters on this car. Not required at this age. The interior has the original seats which are white and are in very good condition. The dash hull was replaced as well as the console. The speedometer was changed over to a 140 mph replacement. The dash pad is also new along with the carpet. All new rubber moldings.everywhere. The stereo is a Pioneer single CD system with new speakers front & rear. The tires are new and are BF Goodrich with the correct size. The A/C works great! It has all new hoses and cores and is still operating with R12 and is cold. Everything works...even the windshield washer. There is no cruise control.....sorry. I did replace the steering wheel with one I thought looked better. I will add some more photos including the interior soon.The car handles like it did back in the 80's. It's not a cushy ride........It's a firm ride that connects you to the road. It does make "convertible" noises. It's not a quiet car. I am selling this car because I do not really drive it enough and it needs to be driven. It has only a 1,000 miles on the re-build. There are a few minor things that need to be done that will not cost any money but just a little time. The windows need some tweeking in the adjustment area. They go up and down fine, but I think they could do better. The motors are not new, but do have new cams. All of the adjustment is easy to access. The car needs to be driven to round out the tires. They do have a flat spots from sitting for periods of time. Just to let you know, I start and drive this car weekly if not several times a week. I just never drove it for any long distances. It always had fresh gas and never sat long enough for the battery to go down. It's a great car and would make anyone a great car to enjoy. The paint was done a couple of years ago and is very good job but not the greatest. The car was originally white. I chose the current color because I thought with the white top, it looked more impressive. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I have all of the receipts of all the work that has been done and all the parts that have been purchased. I also have a lot ofor extra parts, Ford shop manuals, and skematic plans that will go with the car. Remember, this is a classic and it's not perfect, but it will still get plenty of looks and runs great. Good luck and I hope it finds a new home. Thank you for looking, and by the way, the car is also for sale locally and I may the end the auction early if necessary. Car is sold as is. No warranty. If any requested work is to be done prior to turning over vehicle to new owner, such work with any costs, would be agreed upon by both parties.

Amelia Island 2013: 50 years of the Ferrari-slaying Ford GT40
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Originally developed with the sole purpose of being a Ferrari rival to compete at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Ford GT40 became a prominent racing machine in the 1960s in both Europe and the US. Not wanting to leave such an important car out of the fun, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance also took time out from its other celebrations to recognize the 50-year anniversary of the GT40.
Over its short lifespan, the GT40 was offered in a handful of configurations, but the classic short-tailed (Mk I and Mk II) bodystyles were well represented... especially in Gulf livery. James Glickenhaus (of Ferrari P4/5 fame) had his bright yellow Mk IV in the field, and there were several others in this bodystyle, including one that has seen plenty of time on the track judging by its chipped-up nose.
As a fitting statement for the car's lengthy racing history, GT40 Chassis Number 1075 won this year's Concours de Sport award. This car took home the checkered flag at Le Mans in 1968 and 1969, and racked up a total of six wins in just 11 races.
11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching
Fri, 26 Sep 2014This 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.
2015 Shelby GT350 Mustang sounds racy as it revs [UPDATE]
Thu, May 21 2015UPDATE: It seems as though the GT350 exhaust was just too hot for YouTube. The video has been removed, as you can see. We'll keep combing the Interwebs for a new version. If you're somehow still on the fence about the 2015 Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang, then this video should provide some healthy encouragement about the new coupe. There's no high-speed action here, but you get to experience the wonderful sound of the GT350's 5.2-liter V8 with a flat-plane crankshaft start up, idle and throw some revs. At a twist of the key, the engine barks to attention, and a wonderfully crisp shriek comes from the exhaust when the driver blips the throttle. The GT350 even has a growly baritone at idle. According to the YouTube description, this car was on hand at the Carroll Shelby Tribute and Car Show in Gardena, CA. Unfortunately, videos online might be the best chance for many people to hear the wail of the latest GT350 for now. Ford is only building a total of 137 of them for the 2015 model year, but the numbers should pick up when the 2016 model year begins in just a few months.
