Engine: Factory 170 2.8 online 6 Recent holley 1904 carb New rubber fuel hose wrapped in DEI heat shield above the header to prevent vapor lock New air cleaner setup New 95 mustang 5.0 3G alternator New battery New accel ignition coil All new grounds and power supply wires are matching 4gauge New starter New starter solenoid New V-belt Recent oil change Coolant flush New brake fluid New 3-row radiator(hoses were checked and in good shape) Full exhaust replaced last year New header gaskets and exhaust bung for the wideband Interior: Working factory radio with Boston acoustic speakers and tweeters hidden under the dash. Hidden gauges in the glove box consist of: New innovate LM-1 Voltage Oil pressure Coolant temperature All are installed and functioning although its picking up the signal from the factory sending units. I have the aftermarket sending units included and could be installed easily in place of factory with fitting adapters at a hardware store.

Nice floor mats front and rear New white ostrich print door cards very cool and classy look. Original door cards will be provided. All lights work but sometimes the turn signals act up but that can be fixed before the sale because when I removed the front signals I believe a bulb was burnt out when I removed them so new bulbs should fix it.

Factory roof rack (rare) Hand pinstriping on the hood, front fenders, tail gate and dash all done by some famous artist honestly the PO told me and I forgot before I could write down his name. Very nice quality work. The rear window does work and is power either by key or interior button. All windows work as should buy the driver window could use new rollers they are like $1.99 each and 6 per window if I remember correctly. Functions as is when you roll the window down past about 4 inches to the bottom it drops the rest of the way. You can use 2 fingers to pick it back up if u pull it back to the 4 inch mark it'll roll up on its own. I know a lot about this car as I've spent countless hours researching and working on the car. I know it inside and out so any questions feel free to ask. Also have most receipts from stuff I purchased and the exhaust work I had done. These will be given to the buyer as most items carry a warranty. Serious inquiries only. |

8 automakers, 15 utilities collaborate on open smart-charging for EVs
Thu, Jul 31 2014We're going to lead with General Motors here. GM is one of eight automakers working with 15 utilities and the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) at developing a "smart" plug-in vehicle charging system. Why did we start with GM? Because it's the first automaker whose press release we read that mentioned the other seven automakers. Points for sharing. For the record, the collaboration also includes BMW, Toyota, Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Chrysler, Mitsubishi and Ford. The utilities include DTE Energy, Duke Energy, Southern California Edison and Pacific Gas & Electric. The idea is to develop a so-called "demand charging" system in which an integrated system lets the plug-ins and utilities communicate with each other so that vehicle charging is cut back at peak hours, when energy is most expensive, and ramped up when the rates drop. Such entities say there's a sense of urgency to develop such a system because the number of plug-in vehicles on US roads totals more than 225,000 today and is climbing steadily. There's a lot of technology involved, obviously, but the goal is to have an open platform that's compatible with virtually any automaker's plug-in vehicle. No timeframe was disclosed for when such a system could go live but you can find a press release from EPRI below. EPRI, Utilities, Auto Manufacturers to Create an Open Grid Integration Platform for Plug-in Electric Vehicles PALO ALTO, Calif. (July 29, 2014) – The Electric Power Research Institute, 8 automakers and 15 utilities are working to develop and demonstrate an open platform that would integrate plug-in electric vehicles (PEV) with smart grid technologies enabling utilities to support PEV charging regardless of location. The platform will allow manufacturers to offer a customer-friendly interface through which PEV drivers can more easily participate in utility PEV programs, such as rates for off-peak or nighttime charging. The portal for the system would be a utility's communications system and an electric vehicle's telematics system. As the electric grid evolves with smarter functionality, electric vehicles can serve as a distributed energy resource to support grid reliability, stability and efficiency. With more than 225,000 plug-in vehicles on U.S. roads -- and their numbers growing -- they are likely to play a significant role in electricity demand side management.
Ford says utility vehicles are key to global growth
Tue, 26 Nov 2013While most of us believe that small, fuel efficient cars are the key to global expansion for US automakers, Jim Farley, Ford's vice president of Global Marketing, thinks otherwise. Last week, we attended an exclusive sneak preview of the Ford Edge Concept in advance of the Los Angeles Auto Show, and Farley told us that it's actually utility vehicles that will help the Blue Oval gain market share overseas. "There is no other segment in our industry that is growing like utilities," he said. "We expect over the next five years this full family of [utility] vehicles to really drive our growth as a company."
And Farley has the numbers to back it up, too. Ford projects overall automotive sales to grow 23 percent from 2012 to 2017, but the company's utility vehicles are expected to boom by an impressive 41 percent during that same period. Much of that growth will be in China, where Ford estimates its utility sales will explode. "The biggest opportunity for us globally for utilities is in China," Farley said. "China utility growth is expected to more than double from where it is today to 2017, which isn't that far away." Most astounding is that Ford projects its own utility sales in China will eventually increase by more than 2,000 percent when smaller crossovers, such as the EcoSport and Kuga (sold as the Escape in North America), and the Edge and Explorer, are factored in.
Ford's VP also expects utilities to lead the way in the struggling European market. "With all the difficulties of the European market, there is one segment that has actually expanded in volume over the last several years even though the market is way down, and that's utilities," Farley told us. Ford estimates that their utility sales will grow 65 percent in Europe from 2012-2017. "The utility segment is projected to grow we think about thirty percent between now and 2017 in Europe, and we think we are going to grow twice that rate as a brand," Farley continued.
