68 Mustang G.t. Coupe 390-2v Candyapple Red White C-stripe Original X-code on 2040-cars
Allentown, Pennsylvania, United States
|
X-code Mustang produced in 1968 which stands for a special engine size of 390-2V. Its a very rare Mustang, and is not known exactly how many were built. (We contacted Ford in Florida, who stated that it is probable that 528 were produced) The two-barrel big block 390 Cougar engine was put in the Mustang to test the performance of these special Mustangs. The heads and decompression ratio were the same S-code, as the 390V.
The X-code 390 is the only two barrel big block ever installed in the Mustang, and as such it holds an interesting place in history. Options.......................it has the original GT badgeing, automatic transmission, the Tach reaches up to 8000 rpm. It still has the original AM radio. Overhead woodgrain console with map lights. Woodgrain dash, and panels on both doors. It also has chrome GT wheels, original candy apple red paint color, turn signals are in the hood as well as in the front of the car. It also has fog lights, and GT suspension. Drum brakes. Recently installed a 'better cooling' aluminum radiator directly from FORD. We have had the car since 1983. Garage kept. Car is driven all thru-out the summer anywhere from 2 miles -400 miles. Car show ready. |

Ford shutters Genk assembly plant in Belgium
Tue, Dec 23 2014Ford has become the latest automaker to close one of its European assembly plants. The facility in question is located in the Belgian city of Genk and has been in operation since the early '60s when it started building the Taunus, Ford's first mass-produced, front-drive model. As part of the plan first announced over two years ago, the Genk Body & Assembly Plant is now closing its doors after half a century in the business and over fourteen million vehicles built. Although the plant itself employed some 5,000 workers, once you take into account the suppliers built up around the plant, the overall impact on employment in the area edges closer to 12,000. Genk Body & Assembly had until recently been tasked with producing the Mondeo sedan (which in its current iteration we know as the Fusion) as well as the S-Max and Galaxy minivans. Production of the Mondeo shifted in 2013 to the company's plant in Valencia, Spain, which also handles the Kuga crossover and Transit Connect cargo van, and will soon take over the minivans from Genk as well. The move follows a similar decision undertaken by General Motors to close the Opelwerk plant in Bochum, Germany. It also reflects a scaling down of automobile production in Belgium specifically: although Audi still manufacturers in Brussels and and Volvo in Ghent, Opel closed its plant in Antwerp in 2000 and Renault ceased production in Vilvoorde back in '97. However Ford still maintains its famous proving ground half an hour to the north in Lommel, Belgium.

This Or That: Fiat 500 Abarth vs. Ford Fiesta ST [w/poll]
Thu, 21 Aug 2014
They're pretty darn similar. And yet our views are oh so different.
If you guys could read the transcripts of our editors' chat room, you'd know that we're a pretty argumentative bunch. It's always good-spirited stuff (well, usually), but when we're not obsessively covering this or that, we're usually fighting about one car being better than another. We're all enthusiasts here, and our automotive tastes run the gamut from the weird and unusual to the decidedly mainstream - we all feel strongly about specific cars in a given segment. While it usually makes for good conversation, if we're passionate enough, it can turn into a tomato-throwing showdown.
