2007 Ford Mustang Shelby Gt Coupe 2-door 4.6l on 2040-cars
Westtown, New York, United States
NO RESERVE AUCTION!!!!
Up for sale is my 2007 Shelby Mustang GT. I am the sole owner of this car. I put 4.10 gears in the rear, custom hood, spoiler and rear window louvers. This car is truly an eye catcher. She is loud and fast. I am only selling it because I needed a truck for work and just cant afford to store it any longer. She gets good gas mileage for being a muscle car. I can average around 24 mpg. My dreams were to start building the car as a racer/drag car, but that was shortly lived due to lack of funds! I didnt have the time or money to build the car and she was my everyday driver. The car has around 340 horsepower as it stands. The vinyl stripes that came from shelby had defects, so the car was shipped out and stripes were painted on the car. I do have the ford factory stripes and hood scoop from shelby to keep the car original. The package will go to the buyer of the vehicle. the cons: The car was parked at my dads shop when a car was t-boned on the intersection, rolled up and went into the back of my car. The bumper was pushed in ever so slightly with paint chips. The woman who hit my car had her insurance company fix my bumper, so an accident report was filed. The rear spoiler has some fading. It didn't bother me, but it could be repainted. The stripes are a factory ford color. The rear end we put in has a slight whine to it only because we added an extra shim for added strength so the drive shaft wouldn't bust on a takeoff. i never did make it to the track as I couldn't risk damaging it and not having a ride to and from work. The car has small rock chips on front bumper and hood from every day NY driving. I babied this car. No one was allowed to eat, drink or smoke in it. Its time for someone else to enjoy the car like I did. She has always been garage kept. -Ryan |

Translogic drives wood-burning Mercury Beaver XR-7
Sun, 31 Jul 2011You read the title right, we're talking about the Mercury Beaver XR-7. No, Mercury never officially built a car called the beaver. This is the brainchild of upstate New Yorker Chip Beam, who owns and operates Beaver Energy, LLC. It runs on gases created by wood pellets fermented in a 2,400-degree furnace and fed to a supercharged Ford 4.6-liter V8.
By all accounts, it gets down the road just fine, and has pretty close to full power. The best part is, you can grow the fuel yourself and avoid patronizing big oil, if that's your thing. The only drawback that we can see to the Mercury Beaver XR-7 is the PVC pipe jungle occupying the space that would be the trunk under normal circumstances.
Still, if you're willing to smell like a mountain man and look like a bad Back to the Future knockoff, this ride is right up your alley. Click past the jump to see Translogic's take on this modified Merc.
Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes
Mon, 18 Jul 2011Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.
NHTSA upgrades Ford floor mat unintended acceleration probe
Mon, 17 Dec 2012According to a Bloomberg report, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has upgraded an investigation into complaints of unintended acceleration lodged against Ford vehicles. The investigation began in June of 2010 when just three complaints had been received and it only concerned the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan, but this was at a time when the phrase "unintended acceleration" made grown men go pale. With 49 additional complaints received since then, the investigation has been reclassified as an engineering analysis - the last phase before a recall - and it has been expanded to include the Lincoln MKZ, making for a total of "around 480,000" units affected between the three sedans from the 2008 to 2010 model years.
The ostensible cause is that floor mats are trapping the accelerator pedal, but according to a Ford statement at the time, the entrapment is due to owners placing the optional all-weather floor mats, or aftermarket floor mats, on top of the car's standard floor mats. NHTSA has backed up that assessment, pinning the blame on "unsecured or double stacked floor mats."
On the face of it, it would appear that NHTSA has upgraded the status not because of Ford's error, but owner error, and Ford has stated publicly that it is "disappointed" in NHTSA's move. On top of NHTSA still being skittish after that other unintended acceleration debacle, it could be seen to be taking its time investigating all of the variables: it's reported that Ford changed its accelerator pedal design in 2010, a "heel blocker" in the floorpan has been considered a potential culprit in how the floor mats could be trapping the pedal, some drivers have said the floor mats weren't anywhere near the pedal, and according to a report in the LA Times, in "a letter sent by Ford to NHTSA in August 2010, the automaker said it found three injuries and one fatality that 'may have resulted from the alleged defect.'"
