1965 Ford Mustang Fastback on 2040-cars
Gilman, Connecticut, United States
1965 Ford Mustang Fastback 289 V8 Fully restored. Show and Go!
Professionally restored in 2009. The car was rust free and only needed a cosmetic restoration which was done to a
very high standard.
This classic can be driven, enjoyed and has brought home its share of trophies at the local car shows.
Runs fantastic, handles great, and does not have any of the typical rattles of the older ponies.
The overall paint quality is excellent and the car has a great stance. Their is a small paint crack on the
passenger side below the rear glass where the roof begins to curve which is quite common. Other then perhaps a tiny
paint chip or two I believe you will find the body to be show ready.
The rear valance was changed to accommodate the GT style dual trumpet exhaust. Chrome trim, bumpers and glass all
look excellent and the windows roll up and down nicely.
The entire interior looks fantastic and everything works.
A custom Auto Sound Digital AM/FM with a satellite dock was installed in the original radio spot and speakers were
neatly placed into the front kick panels.
The car has the original C-code 289 V8 slightly dressed up with chrome valve covers and air cleaner.
Nicely upgraded to an Edelbrock Preformer 289 Intake and 4bbl carburetor. A nice set of headers was also added and
this car truly preforms like an A-Code 289 would. It pulls very strong and drives very smooth.
Front suspension was redone and although it is manual steering it is a breeze to steer and drives nice and
straight.
Radiator was replaced and it runs nice and cool.
The original door tag (will come with the car) was removed when the car was restored and replaced with a
reproduction door tag that shows the current color. The original vin # stamping is present on the drivers side
inner fender.
The inside of the trunk is nicely detailed and rock solid.
Floor pans and frame rails are in fantastic condition and were lightly undercoated at the time of the restoration.

2014 Ford Cobra Jet announced with new colors, parachute mount
Fri, 22 Mar 2013Ford's drag-strip-ready Mustang Cobra Jet is back for 2014, and it's sporting a few changes to make it even better - both in competition and while sitting still. Rolling off the assembly line ready for duty in the NHRA Stock or Super Stock classes, production of the 2014 Cobra Jet is limited to just 50 units.
Racing upgrades for 2014 include the addition of a new three-speed transmission and a parachute mount, and while these will make the car better in the quarter mile, the Cobra Jet's new colors will make it look better tearing down the track. Buyers can now get their racecars painted up in Gotta Have-It Green or a custom, Cobra Jet-exclusive matte black hue. Ford and Ford Racing have already teamed up to make this an incredible factory drag racer with a full rollcage, massive Hoosier slicks, a race-tuned suspension setup and a supercharged 5.0-liter V8. Now, if only wheelie bars came standard...
Unlike the confusing third-party ordering system announced for the COPO Camaro, all you need to snatch up a 2014 Cobra Jet is $97,990 and good timing (as the cars will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis). Ordering opens up next month with production commencing in July. Check out the press release below.
Ken Block and friends race light in silly-beautiful Castrol commercial
Wed, 28 May 2014How does one make fast, loud, drifting cars better? Well, you can add more fast, loud, drifting cars or you can add lasers. Either or, really. In this case, Castrol did the right thing and added both, creating a highly stylized commercial for its Edge Titanium motor oil starring South African racer Adrian Zaugg, BMW factory driver Augusto Farfus, Audi DTM and Le Mans staple Mike Rockenfeller and some bloke named Ken Block.
Their cars? No surprise, but Block is in his Ford Fiesta GRC, while Zaugg samples a Lamborghini Aventador and Farfus and Rockenfeller drive along party lines, with a BMW M4 and an Audi R8, respectively. And those cars look good, too, thanks to the creative light and laser work on display.
Take a look below for the video from Castrol.
Amazon can now deliver packages to some Ford and Lincoln vehicles
Tue, Apr 30 2019Nothing succeeds without complications popping up along the way. Sure, Amazon's Prime delivery services have made shopping more convenient than brushing your teeth, but leaving millions of packages on doorsteps comes with an inherent danger: Thieves might swipe them without anybody knowing. Amazon's solution is called Amazon Key, which allows delivery men and women to enter a customer's house or car to drop off a package. This week, Ford and Lincoln announced they would be partnering with Amazon to integrate the service into some of their vehicles. Ford is following in the footsteps of Volvo and General Motors, as both companies announced their participation about a year ago. That includes Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick, and GMC. Key will be made available for 2017-and-newer Fords equipped with FordPass Connect, and 2018-and-later Lincolns with Lincoln Connect. Key is not available everywhere, but it can be used in dozens of city throughout the U.S., and the network is expanding. To look for compatibility for your car and city, check on Amazon's dedicated Key website. Like every other tech invention these days, Key requires a smart device application, which requires a one-time setup. The service is available on the Key app or the FordPass and Lincoln Way apps. While ordering on Amazon, customers will then select in-car delivery during checkout. Input a public delivery address, and park the car within two blocks of that address. While the order is in transit, Amazon will provide status updates, another feature that takes away some of the anxiety of waiting for a package to be delivered. The package will be put into the car within a four-hour window, and users will get notifications that the exchange is complete, and the car is again securely locked. Should customers change their minds, they can always cancel the delivery method, and the car will remain locked. In that case, the delivery could go to the building where the car is parked, or be rescheduled. Ford imagines this as the beginning of numerous car-based services in the near future that can be scheduled while the owner is not there, such as car washes.
