For auction here is my 1987 Mustang LX with the rare T top option. The t top was discontinued in September of 1987 so not many Mustangs of this body style were optioned this way, especially the LX. I have owned the car since 2006 and have done a lot of work to it over the years. I have installed the complete drivetrain from a 1992 LX so the car has the mass air flow 8 spark plug 2.3 and the computer controlled automatic transmission. The engine runs well and has fresh plugs, wires, and crank sensor. The transmission works well in all gears and has a fresh filter, fluid, and front pump seal. The car is fully driveable. It has been restored in the original Oxford White and looks very nice, but does have some problem areas. There are a couple small bubbles in some areas and the lower part of the front bumper was damaged when the car was hauled home when the crank sensor had failed. It is registered as an antique in PA and the plate can be transferred if desired to a PA buyer. It is also listed as reconstructed, however I do not know why, and the title is in my name. The car is lowered with Intrax springs all around. The steering rack is a 15:1 unit and the car has V8 sway bars. The wheels are custom painted Turbo Coupe 16X7s and the tires are 205/55/16s in good condition. The front brakes are converted to 11" rotors with V8 spindles, and most of the hardlines on the car are replaced. The interior was originally Blue, and has been converted to Black using mostly original black parts. There are some interior items that still need finished such as the headliner, the door panels will need small filler panels, etc. The lower rear seat is the original one dyed, and I am including an original black one that will need the fastening modified since it is a 1992 seat. The heater core is new and the heat works well. The AC is not hooked up and is missing a few underhood items. The car has all 1992 wiring harnesses in it including the dash, so the mileage shown at 138K is from the donor car. This car has 140K but all mechanicals have 138K. The rearend is an 8.8 unit with 3.55 gears and a Traction Lok differential with additional clutches. The doors are from a 1987 LX that had manual windows and locks which is what I wanted. I will include the original doors if desired which are all power, but they are rusty. The t-tops leak, so I purchased new seals that I never installed, and those are included as well. The original key is included for the t-tops and all the keys for the doors and ignition work well. Please review all photos and ask any questions, and please only bid if you have good feedback and want to own the car. I wanted to add that the car has a BBK 155 LPH fuel pump, and the chassis has been painted with POR-15. The door hinges have all been rebuilt with new pins and bushings.

Ford adding second supplier for F-150 frames

Mon, Aug 10 2015

Metalsa, the company that builds steel frames for the aluminum-bodied Ford F-150, is still having trouble providing enough frames to supply the two factories that build the pickup. The snafu is preventing Ford from selling as many of the country's best-selling truck as it could, and eating into profits - even though the bottom line is still breaking company records. According to The Wall Street Journal, Ford has picked Michigan company Tower International as a second frame supplier and expects to have inventory up to a proper level at the beginning of Q4 of this year. Neither Ford nor Tower would confirm the development - Automotive News got comments from a source and pieced together bits of info from Tower's financial statements and local press reports. Tower currently builds body structures for several vehicles, including the F-series, and the Bellevue, Ohio factory that will build F-150 frames previously manufactured frames for the Ranger and Econoline. According to a story in the local Sandusky Register, Tower will add one production line at the end of next month to begin shipping frames in October, and another line in April 2016. Something like 138 full-time workers and 364 robots are expected to carry out the work. Tower's most recent financial statement said that capital investment will be necessary to get everything set up, but the contract will be worth $140 million in yearly revenue.

NHTSA investigating 500k Ford and Mercury cars for lighting failures

Mon, Apr 6 2015

The Ford Crown Victoria and Mercury Grand Marquis might be long gone as new models in showrooms, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration might check them out yet again for a potential problem. At the urging of North Carolina Consumers Council, the agency may open another investigation into the front lighting control module on vehicles from the 2003-2005 model years, and NHTSA estimates the issue could affect 517,945 vehicles. If the module stops working, it can cause a complete failure of all forward lighting, including the headlights. NHTSA previously investigated the issue in 2008 and 2009 but found no need for a recall, according to Bloomberg. Ford also extended the warranty on the part to 15 years or 250,000 miles. To prompt this new request, the North Carolina Consumers Council received a letter from a woman experiencing the module's failure. Upon further investigation, the council found 604 complaints of this problem on NHTSA's website, including seven crashes. Furthermore, the group has alleged that dealers told customers that the parts to perform the replacement weren't available, despite the extended warranty. According to the government agency, "A defect petition has been opened to evaluate the issue and make a grant or deny decision." Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker tells Autoblog via email, "We will cooperate with NHTSA, as we always do." You can read the council's complete letter to the Feds in PDF format, here. INVESTIGATION Subject : Loss of headlamp/exterior lighting Date Investigation Opened: APR 01, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: DP15002 Component(s): EXTERIOR LIGHTING All Products Associated with this Investigation Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) FORD CROWN VICTORIA 2003-2005 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS 2003-2005 Details Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company SUMMARY: The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received a petition from the North Carolina Consumers Council, Inc. requesting a defect investigation of an alleged defect condition resulting in headlight and/or exterior lighting failure on 2003-2005 Ford Crown Victoria and Mercury Grand Marquis vehicles. The petition letter is attached for review. The petitioner alleges a defect in the lighting control module that powers the headlights which can result in the loss of vehicle headlights and/or all exterior lighting while driving. ODI has previously investigated this issue under PE08-066 which was closed without a defect finding.
