Please message me with questions at: eldridge.dusatko@openmail.cc . This is your opportunity to own a much desired “Fox Body” Ford Mustang coupe / notchback. This is a rotisserie
restored 1989 Mustang LX coupe built as a “Pro Touring” car and has been featured in issue 5 of Fox Mustang
Magazine. This Mustang had less than 23,000 miles on it when the restoration began, so it started out as a near
perfect body with no rust. Only 300 break-in miles have been logged on this Mustang since the completion of the
restoration.
The paint is a dark metallic gray over a lighter silver, separated by a thin orange stripe. The mirror shine paint
job is flawless, and above the quality that you see on most cars at high end car shows. The metallic in the dark
gray really stands out in the sun and under bright lights.
The engine is a stout 347 stroker engine rated at 519HP with worked Trick Flow heads; Vortech S-Trim Supercharger
with 48-pound Trick Flow injectors fed by an Aeromotive fuel system; MSD ignition; Crane cam and a long list of
other goodies. The transmission is a Tremec T600.
The exhausts starts with a pair of short tube Doug’s headers, a 2.5 inch stainless X-pipe and Flowmaster 40
Series mufflers that gives it an aggressive but subdued exhaust note at idle hinting at the high performance
experience that goes with this vehicle. Suspension is adjustable coil-overs on all 4 corners.
Wheels are FR500 10-spokes with Nitto 235/45ZR17 tires up front and NT555 P275/40R17 Extreme Drag Radial rubber in
the rear. Once rolling the AeroSpace disc brakes on all 4 corners slow things down with the help of drilled and
slotted rotors.
The interior is all brand new as well; it has custom two tone leather seats to mimic the exterior colors of the
car. Water Temp, Boost Press and Air Fuel gauges are tastefully mounted to driver’s side windshield pillar. It
also has a custom fit role bar / cage painted the same dark metallic gray as the top of the outside of the car. A
high end stereo system made up of a Pioneer AM/FM/CD player and a Bazooka sub-woofer complete the total interior
package.
Driving this car is incredible. It is a contradiction of sensations with the mix of raw power that’s available
instantly at any RPM and in any gear, combined with the predictability of the suspension, the right tires,
lightweight wheels and spot-on aftermarket brakes.

Shelby boosts production of 575-hp Raptor on early demand

Mon, 08 Apr 2013

Shelby American unveiled its all-new Shelby Raptor at the New York Auto Show last month, saying that it would build just 100 examples of its off-road bad boy, a pickup priced at $17,995 over the cost of the donor Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. But the Las Vegas outfit apparently underestimated just how popular the supercharged 575-horsepower 4x4 would actually be.
Strong early demand reportedly has Shelby singing a whole new tune, as the company is now saying it will build upwards of 500 units annually. While the increased production will likely make for at least 400 more happy owners, those who were on the original short list - possibly speculating on future values - might not be grinning as much. Needless to say, the company has assured everyone that each and every one of the modified Raptors will still be listed in the official Shelby registry.
Keep in mind that Ford isn't sitting idle on its trophy-truck-for-the-street, either. The company will reveal its own 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition this month.

Need for Speed movie casts Mustang in hero car role

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

Dreamworks Studios, Electronic Arts and Ford Motor Company announced today that the Ford Mustang will play the lead hero car role in the upcoming Need for Speed movie, slated to hit theaters next February. Of course, the Mustang didn't audition for the role like we imagine the film's star, Aaron Paul of Breaking Bad fame, might have. Rather, Ford and Dreamworks struck a partnership deal that meant the Mustang could skip the casting couch. The deal will also see the film's universe populated with other Ford products (gratuitously so, we're guessing), and the automaker will also help the studio promote the video-game-turned-movie next year.
The hero car in question is a special one-off Mustang created by Ford that is making its debut at the E3 video game trade show as we speak. Powered by a supercharged V8 and apparently based on the Shelby GT500, the car's been modified with a widebody kit, 22-inch wheels, larger air intakes and twin hood nostrils. Ford also provided the film's production with an F-450 truck that will be called "The Beast" in the film's story, and a second Mustang to be used during filming as a camera car.
The Mustang's movie career is really taking off, with news of its Need For Speed casting closely following last week's release of the trailer for Getaway, a movie coming out in August that stars Ethan Hawke, Selena Gomez and another Shelby GT500. In addition to Aaron Paul and a modified Mustang, the Need For Speed movie also stars Michael Keaton (cop, we're guessing) and Dominic Cooper (villain, we're guessing), and is directed by Scott Waugh, who directed the Navy SEAL film Act of Valor in 2012.

Reborn Ford Escort could make its way to Europe

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

The Ford Escort concept just unveiled at the Shanghai Motor Show was created with the Chinese market in mind, but it's got people talking all over the world. Not purely fancy, the point of the Escort concept was to give Chinese buyers a preview of what they could expect to see in a Ford showroom in the near future. If Ford wasn't seriously considering the new Escort for other countries, a report in Auto Express indicates that the concept's reception has changed all that.
No less than the incoming chairman of Ford UK said "it could work in other places," bolstering the comments of "a senior Ford insider" who said the question of bringing the car to Europe to slot in underneath the Focus had been raised. That's a long way from anything of the kind happening, which would require Ford to figure out how to sell it for the right price and not torpedo the company reputation among Euro buyers. In any case, we'd be as intrigued as anyone if an Escort resurrection created the next 'who knew?' market segment of few-frills transportation offered by non-Asian carmakers.
