Relisting due to someone thinking ebay is a fun place to bid on things you cant afford. He backed out when he found out that shipping is expensive. Please don't be a fool too.
Up for auction is my 1988 Mustang GT Convertible 5 Speed 5.0 v8 car.
This is a PROJECT VEHICLE. I just had it inspected and the engine started knocking last week. Will NEED WORK.
Clutch was also worn but drivable. I drove it over 1500 miles in the last 2 months leading upto the engine knocking.
5.0 V8, still has the originial emmisions equipment under the hood, rare to find one that hasnt been hacked all apart nowadays.
Showing 40k miles, I believe it to be 140k miles. **Please note the "title issue found" seen above the description is because of this. These cars only have 5 digit odometers, so when a title gets transffered it could have been recorded as 40k or 140k earlier in its life. Since its so old now they are exempt, but they still record the mileage. I believe the car to have 140k miles on it based on my experience of how it drives, how original alot of the parts look and experience with mustangs and the other 70+ cars ive owned.**
The top will need to be redone, as well as the top motor is bad. The top can be put up and down by hand but it does have a few holes and no rear window. I keep it in the garage so the top didnt matter to me.
The A/C didnt work, but again, i only drove it on nice days with the top down anyways.
The rear window motors are missing, the windows can be put up and down by hand. The front windows work.
Has brand new headlight set installed 2 months ago.
Car has original black paint and red interior, a great color combination to restore and is in pretty good shape for a 25 year old vehicle but is not perfect.
Will start and move onto trailer, but should not be driven far due to engine knock.
Clear Texas Title in my name and currently registered and inspected.
Car must be paid for within 7 days and picked up within 14.

BMW to follow Honda back into F1?
Mon, 14 Apr 2014The economic downturn wrought devastating effects on motor racing. Formula One alone lost half its engine suppliers when Honda left at the end of the 2008 season, and both BMW and Toyota followed at the end of 2009. But things are looking up again. Cosworth may have dropped out this season, reducing the engine suppliers to three: Ferrari, Renault and Mercedes, the latter of which admits that it may have left had the engine formula not changed. But Mercedes has stayed and is dominating the championship. Honda is coming back next season. And word around the paddock is it may not be the only one.
According to Giancarlo Minardi - founder of the team now known as Scuderia Toro Rosso - BMW engineers have been conspicuously spotted lately at F1 test sessions and grands prix, lending to speculation that the new engine regulations may entice the Bavarian automaker back into the series. According to Minardi, BMW's marketing division is pushing for the automaker's return to F1, with the board slated to make a decision in May. BMW would be more likely to consider an engine-supply deal rather than taking a team over like it had with Sauber, but with which team or teams it might collaborate remains a big question mark at this point.
As if that's not enough, Ford is said to be considering taking over Cosworth's aborted V6 turbo engine program to take both outfits back into the sport as well. Cosworth supplied F1 engines under the Ford banner for years, but returned under its own name for four seasons from 2010 through 2013 before shuttering its program to develop an engine to meet the new regulations adopted this season.
Rolling footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang hits YouTube [w/video]
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal. There are no burnouts, no donuts, no revving, and thankfully, no music. It's just two minutes and 26 seconds of the new pony car running free in the desert.
So in case you needed more visualizing help, the video below will help you start imagining how you'll look in your 2014 Christmas present to yourself...
US Ford Focus RS to be imported from Europe
Tue, 21 Oct 2014Rumors about the forthcoming Ford Focus RS are flourishing into what sounds like a very impressive new hot hatch. The latest scuttlebutt gives the first indication about when we might see a few of these fast Focuses on roads here in the US.
Unnamed insiders reportedly confirmed to The Truth About Cars that Ford plans to launch the Focus RS in the US in 2016. However, getting one might not be so easy - the boosted powertrain means the car would likely need to be imported from Europe. That's likely going to keep the total number available in the US rather low. The sources estimate a price tag that's a bit more expensive than the top Focus ST3, which starts around $28,500, plus $825 destination.
It seems that a pretty potent package comes for all of that cash, though. The Focus RS reportedly uses a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making between 325 and 350 horsepower, with a torque-vectoring all-wheel drive system to get that muscle to the road. The test mules also wear more aggressive front and rear fascias, dual exhaust tips, larger brakes and sticky tires. It sounds like a great formula on top of the already enjoyable Focus ST.
