1966 Mustang Coupe, 4-Speed Top Loader
This beautifully ground up restored Mustang was purchased in 1966 for the first owner's daughter as a highschool gift. It began as a C-4 automatic and the A/C system you see in the pics was dealer installed in 1966. A product of the San Jose factory, California car its entire life. It was sold to my buddy in 1976 where he fully intended to restore someday. Well, I purchased the vehicle from him after sitting for 37 years untouched, his wife drove the vehicle 1976 - 1980 and then they parked it in their backyard. They unfortunately left the windows cracked to make sure it would always be aired out which resulted in me having to replace the floor boards which was the only rust in the car. The trunk was perfect and the rest of the vehicle was nice as well.
We stripped the car which was in original faded Raven Black down to metal and were pleasantly surprised to find ZERO rust or bondo anywhere on the whole body and frame. This project turned out to be a Frame Up restoration, the bodywork and paint was performed by Rick Flanders an autobody veteran and his comments are that he has never seen a car so straight with no damage or rust at all.
The 289 original motor was pulled and disassembled, bottom end and top end were extremely tight and clean, we installed a new timing chain and total gasket kit, had all exterior motor parts powder coated, including timing cover, all a/c and alternator brackets and reassembled. The original valve covers were painted in mustang dark blue.

I will be purchasing a new steering wheel, (Choice of Grant GT black or wood wheel, Buyer can choose). Will install all the floor body plugs, I have them just haven't installed yet. You may notice an oil drip on the bottom of the bell housing, my oil sending unit was leaking prior to the pic's, I didn't notice it until I already shot the pic's. It has been fixed and there are no leaks.
The Paint Job is 4 weeks old, PPG Raven Black Base Coat (factory matching color)
PPG Clear Coat, Color sanded, buffed three stages and final polish blue pad to create a beautiful original Raven Black finish. As you can see from the pic's, this paint job turns heads. There was one booboo while the buffing was taking place, the buffer handle knicked the driver top fender so the painter had to touch it up, I didn't include a pic but I am addressing the only flaw I know of in the paint itself. Other than that, this was a $9,300.00 paint job and took them 6 working days to complete.
The total restoration includes in excess of 500 man hours with meticulous detail work throughout the project. Receipts alone for the total restoration exceed $18,000.00 not including the purchase of the Straight Factory Black on Black Mustang Coupe. My buddy I purchased the mustang from installed a three speed in 1976 which I quickly pulled, then purchased a factory Top Loader along with a factory Hurst shifter and upgraded to a four-speed. I pulled the cover off, all gears are perfect and in tact, Tranny shifts perfectly, tight, smooth. The shifter nob is a vintage nob with the correct shift pattern engraved on the top. The engine had a two barrel intake which I also removed, purchased an original 4v intake and installed along with the 4-Barrel 650cfm Edlebrock. I had the air cleaner powder coated and I do have the snorkel as well, just not installed but will go with the sale.
We test drove the Mustang and it runs purrrrr-fect, very strong and responsive, turns well, brakes well and overall is a blast to drive. A/C is installed but not operating, all parts are there if you need a/c in your area. Original radio, stations come in with tuner but buttons do not engage. This is one excellent 1966 Mustang 4-Speed and whoever wins this auction will be very pleased.....Enjoy the pics and if you require more pics, I took over 200 shots of the entire restoration but ebay only allows 24 pics when they host the auction. Send your email address if you'd like more pics, I have shots of the body when sanded down to bare metal, then shot in primer sealer, base coat, clear coat all the way through....

2014 Ford Fusion to get 1.5L EcoBoost three-cylinder?
Tue, 09 Apr 2013Just one year after launching the all-new 2013 Fusion, Ford is reportedly set to alter the sedan's powertrain lineup with the addition of a new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. A member of Blue Oval Forums apparently got their hands on the ordering guide for the 2014 model year Fusion, and this 1.5-liter mill is set to be introduced with late availability.
This lines up with other news about the Chinese-market Mondeo being offered with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost - a derivative of the 1.0-liter triple that will come to North America under the hood of the Fiesta (note: the 1.0 is also offered in the current Euro-spec Mondeo). In the Chinese application, the larger three-pot engine produces 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, which is very close to the current 1.6-liter inline-four's output numbers of 178 hp and 184 lb-ft.
What's interesting, however, is that the 1.6-liter engine will reportedly still be offered in the Fusion, but only with the six-speed manual transmission. The smaller 1.5-liter EcoBoost will only be mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic, and will feature start/stop. This means that while the 1.5 is slightly down on power compared to the 1.6, it could easily improve fuel economy numbers, allowing the Fusion to regain the title of having the best mileage in the segment, likely besting the 38 miles per gallon of the Nissan Altima. Currently, the Fusion 1.6 is rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.
Bonhams to auction Carroll Shelby's prototypes and personal cars
Fri, Apr 6 2018Fans of Carroll Shelby will want to make their way to Greenwich, Conn., this June, because Bonhams will be selling a great many cars from the man's personal collection. And many of them are the first of their kind, marking important milestones in Shelby's career. One of those important cars is a 1982 Dodge Charger prototype, which might not look as impressive as a Cobra, but it was important in that it was the first car on which Shelby collaborated with Chrysler. That car led to the first Shelby Charger, as well as other special small Chryslers including the GLH Omnis and Chargers (GLH standing for "Goes Like Hell"). In fact, the first Charger GLH-S (Goes Like Hell S'more) is also part of this collection. There are even some prototypes up for auction that never resulted in a production car, such as a Shelby modified Dodge Ram. That one is probably our favorite: the gold ram hood ornament, the huge pentastar in the grille, the double-barrel truck horn on the roof. It's wonderful nonsense. Of course it isn't just Chryslers going up for sale. There are a couple of GT500 and GT350 Mustangs in the mix from a variety of years. Perhaps most interesting is the very first Shelby Series I, Shelby's ill-fated roadster designed from the ground-up by the Texan's company. Unlike the other early Series I models, Shelby's had a supercharger, which led to a supercharger option being offered later. You can check out the full list of cars below, and pictures of each one in the gallery at the top. The auction will happen on June 3, and every vehicle offered has no reserve, so they'll all be sold for whatever price is shown at the drop of the gavel. 1927 Ford Model T 1931 Ford Model A 1935 Chrysler Airflow Sedan 1955 DeSoto Hard Top 1966 Shelby GT350 Convertible 1967 Lincoln Continental Convertible 1968 Shelby GT350 1969 Shelby GT 500 previously owned by Jackie Cooper Jr. 1969 Shelby GT 500 1982 Shelby Charger Prototype 1983 De Tomaso Pantera 1983 Dodge/Shelby Pickup Concept 1987 DeTomaso GT5-S 1987 Dodge CSX Serial #1 1987 Shelby Charger GLH-S Serial #1 1987 Dodge Shelby Lancer Serial #1 1988 Dodge Shelby Dakota Prototype 1989 Dodge CSX VNT Serial #1 1965 Shelby Cobra 427 Continuation 1999 Shelby Series 1 Serial #1 2008 Shelby GT 500 KR 2011 Shelby GT 500 Super Snake Aurora Race Car Related Video: Featured Gallery Shelby Collection View 72 Photos Image Credit: Bonhams Chrysler Dodge Ford Auctions Performance Classics shelby
