Condition: Used: A vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections. ...

Okay, this vehicle is probably not going to sell because of what the vehicle means to me but I figured I would list it just to see if somebody has a bigger interest than me.

First off, the car is going to need another clean car to build. The entire car is rust rust and more rust. The entire underneath is ruined including the torques. It's going to take a true surgeon to bring this car back to life. But where theres a will theres a way I guess. The fenders are shot, doors are shot, quarters shot, trunk shot, wheel wells shot. THE BODY IS TOAST this is not for the faint of heart.

On for the good on the car. How many chances are you going to get to buy a barn find 71 grabber blue cobra these days, matching numbers at that! Car has original engine, with every correct accessory, carb, heads, valve covers, distributor, shroud you name it they are the ones that came on the car new. Has the original transmission and nodular rear end also. Interior is nice, perfect package tray, like practicaly a NOS dashpad, nice door panels and a really really nice console. The car has a super nice grille with only one crack and no missing pieces WITH THE COBRA EMBLEM. The bezels arent pitted either. Most chrome on the car doesnt need rechromed in my opionion other than the bumpers. This car even has the correct air cleaner. Did you notice the little emblem on the hood that says ford? Most restored 71's dont have that its impossible to find and this car even has that.

So all the hard to find parts are here and its matching numbers in grabber blue with rear window louvers. VERY VERY ATTRACTIVE car. Not to mention the factory laser stripe the car was a looker. Open to cash offers!!!! 260-306-1375 Real offers as I know what the car could be parted for which I will not do so don't ask. As seen in pics car even has the jack...How rare is that? Car has engine id tag and buck tag. I have the original warranty card and a little other stuff. Clean title guys!!! LETS JUST REMEMBER THIS CAR IS AS ROUGH METAL WISE AS YOU CAN IMAGINE. So don't bid unless you know what your up for. Hood is rust free and decklid is very useable.

This is my dream car so its going to take the right buyer/offer to sell. Thanks.

This 2,000-hp Mustang is in serious need of wheelie bars

Tue, 25 Feb 2014

The Ford Mustang on the right is drag racing with the standard technique. The Mustang on the left, driven by David Measell, is using a new "rear bumper only" technique that evidently surprised everyone at the South Georgia Motorsports Park strip - including Measell.
Measell said his outfit just bought the car the week before the event, noting that it has more than 2,000 horsepower. Speaking of his "flying" run, Measell said, "We turned it up to dip on down," by which he meant they turned up the power in order to get his time down. Turns out all that power and all that traction sent the nose straight up into the air almost as soon as the race began.
He told an interviewer afterward that this was his first race in a "regular car" since he normally drives a pro-mod. "I like my wheelie bars," he concluded. You can see how he got there in the video below.

Ford to hack $4k off price of Focus EV amid slow sales

Wed, 10 Jul 2013

Between slow sales and a hefty price drop for its nearest rival, the Ford Focus Electric may be looking at a pretty substantial price cut. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will drop the price of the all-electric by about $4,000 to $35,200 to be more competitive with the Nissan Leaf, which received a big price cut for 2013 down to $28,800.
Ford has already admitted to having low expectations for the car's sales and massive rebates were reported earlier in the year, but there is still no official word from Ford on this matter. The company's consumer site still lists the 2014 model's starting price as $39,200. In addition to the Leaf, the Focus Electric will also have to deal with the lower prices of smaller EVs including the Honda Fit EV, Fiat 500e and the Chevrolet Spark EV.

Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company

Thu, 03 Oct 2013

That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.
