I finally decided to sell my 1999 Mustang GT Convertible (35th Anniversary) instead of finishing it. I have two convertibles already and recently bought another project car so I need some space in my garage. Ford only made a little over 14,000 of these in this color and I'm sure most of them are already in the grave. Similar to all of the 1999 GT's, it has the anniversary badges on the fenders where the GT logo normally goes and it has the factory 17" wheels.
Here is a list of the cosmetic items:
- Leather interior is in good condition - no tears, rips, holes but Driver's seat does show some wear
- Interior is in good shape, carpet is reasonable but not perfect. Dash and console are in good shape, the interior door grab-handle inserts have the same issue everyone else has, they just come loose over the years because of the plastic clip design. No foul smells or anything, smells good and clean.
- Convertible top is in good shape, no rips or holes or anything - the glass in the back is clear and solid. The canvas edge-trimming is showing some small signs of wear from having the top down, but hardly noticeable. Top goes up and down without stalling or binding and fits nice and tight
- Paint & Clearcoat has a great shine, I've cut it and buffed it to help bring out some shine with a very mild polish so there is still a lot more gloss that could be buffed up. It looks like it was resprayed since the factory paint, it's too glossy to be original
- New headlights (old lights were just fogged beyond repair when I bought it)
- New Taillights (one of them was cracked when I bought it so I a bought new set)
- Tires have well over 70% left on them
Here is the list of mechanical items:
- Stock 4.6 SOHC engine
- Automatic transmission w/overdrive and traction control
- New valve seals and valve keepers (they were shot when I bought it)
- New valve springs
- New valve gaskets and timing cover gasket
- New IAC valve
- New K&N Cold Air intake kit
- Aftermarket exhaust with a nice deep rumble (H-pipe layout)
- New fuel injectors
- New Coil-On plug boots and factory-recommended plugs
- New timing chains and tensioners
- New battery
- Has the redesigned metal coolant cross-over on the intake manifold - Ford recalled a bunch of these when the original cheap plastic cross-overs kept breaking
- Unfortunately for me, cylinder #1 is just not holding good compression and has a misfire. I've spent enough already and I'm done, I'm in too deep on this one already to put any more money in it. I don't know what's wrong with it, might be a cheap fix or might be expensive - but I'm not spending any more time or money on it. The car books out around $7,500 so there should be plenty of room to buy it and fix it.
I would not personally consider the car road safe, with the low compression on cylinder #1 it has a terrible misfire. The buyer will need to trailer the car home or have it shipped and I can work with the buyer to make arrangements to get it shipped - it's not that expensive and well worth it.
Let me know if you have any questions, I try to answer messages in the evenings so give me a little time and I'll respond. If I see anyone bidding with a feedback of less than 5 I'll be cancelling your bid unless you contact me first. Also, if you don't pay when you win you're only ruining it for everyone else - so don't bid if you don't have the cash. Title is in-hand and clear, I'm ready to take a loss and move on so bid to win!

Ford reports 58% drop in Q2 profits on European losses
Wed, 25 Jul 2012
Ford Motor Company announced Wednesday that it has posted a $1 billion profit for the second quarter of 2012. That sounds like good news for the Blue Oval, until you take into account that Ford posted a $2.4 billion profit for Q2 a year ago. That is a substantial 58 percent loss.
Ford also posted $465 million in international losses, with $404 million of those losses coming directly from Europe. The automaker also increased its European loss projections to $1 billion for 2012, due in large part to the economic crisis overseas, which has resulted in increased unemployment and decreased consumer confidence.
Saab-powered Ford is the most unlikely drift car we've seen
Tue, Jan 19 2016Yes, you read that headline correctly. It's supposed to be a Saab-powered Ford, and not the other way around (although we fully support the notion of a Sonnet with a Flathead V8). Apparently, some lunatic in the UK took an ass-less 1953 Ford Anglia, paired it with a turbocharged Saab engine, and tuned the entire thing to go drifting. We like it. Called Urchfab, it's the subject of Carfection's (the blokes formerly known as XCar) latest video. Aside from looking like an extra from the British version of Mad Max, it has a problem with grip, in that there's just too much of it. This car is a fabber's dream, as we get to see its unnamed owner fashion new bits and bobs for the suspension before having an unfortunate encounter with a wall at Castle Combe. You can check out the full video up at the top of the page for a closer look at this monstrous Anglia. Related Video:
Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
