Detroit Lakes, Minnesota, United States

You are bidding on a very solid, original-unrestored 1967 Mustang convertible with some very desirable additional parts to create a unique Shelby or California Special tribute car!

This Mustang was last licensed and driven in 1978 and sat outdoors until 1982 at which time the carpet was removed and it went into dry-indoor storage, where it's been for the past 32 years. It is still in it's original factory finish, meaning it's not full of bondo. This car is not a rust-bucket, it is very solid for an original-unrestored car! The rust that is in the car is from carpet and dirt moisture. Here's where there is notable rust to address: The outer-most edge of the driver's floorboard where it meets the inner-rocker; One small spot in the right-rear floorboard near the base of the driveshaft hump (both from carpet moisture); The very bottom rear inner-quarter panel on the passenger side; The front inner-fender top rail where the shock tower overlaps the sheet metal (two quarter-sized spots on each inner-fender). Here's the really good news about rust: The unibody frame is completely solid from front to back, including the torque boxes; The hood is completely straight and solid inside and out; The front fenders are completely solid; The outer-rockers are completely solid; The outer quarters are straight and solid; As you can plainly see in the photos, the great majority of the floorboards are solid. As you can also see in the photos, the inside trunk area and inner-wheel wells are completely solid.

The front & side factory-original tinted glass is all completely flawless, as is all the stainless trim.

The Mustang comes with a clean Minnesota title. The car was originally a 6-cylinder automatic car as you can see by the VIN code. there is no motor included. The original transmission & torque converter are still in the car, along with the starter, alternator and the original tire jack & handle are in the trunk. I do have several other parts that will go with the car such as: a good 9" rear axle assembly, rear-shock mounts, attaching hardware, heavy front-sway bar, V8 motor mounts, a manual clutch/brake pedal assembly (all these parts came from a 1968 Cougar GT) and a flawless chrome radio outer-bezel with inner & outer control knobs. 

The fiberglass trunk lid, fiberglass rear quarter extensions, sequential taillight panel and quarter panel side-scoops are all originals from a 1968 California Special. They are factory Ford and are the same as used on an original Shelby. The trunk lid is excellent throughout with no cracks or flaws inside or out. The fiberglass LH rear-quarter extension has no flaws, the RH has a crack and a puncture near the bottom behind the bumper area. The LH quarter side-scoop has no flaws, the RH shows repaired damage on the inside. The fiberglass taillight panel has one very minor flaw, the top-right outermost attaching screw ear is missing the outer-corner (about half the diameter of a dime). There are no other flaws or issues and the taillight assemblies are complete and in very good condition. The chrome outer-bezels do have some light surface pitting. The light wire harness assemblies are both nice with no flaws and all six steel bulb access covers are nice with no flaws.  

Please, please, don't ask for a "buy it now"; I don't want cars, boats, girlfriends, or trades of any kind; Don't try and impress me with how much you know about Mustangs; I won't sell the Shelby/California Special items separately, it all goes as a package, you part it out if you need to; If you don't have the money to buy it, then don't bid! Sorry, just getting all that out of the way. Please do feel free to contact me with valid questions or concerns regarding the Mustang. I also have 40 additional picture I am willing send to serious buyers by request. Rest assured my reserve not out there in "neverland" and is very realistic for the quality of this package!

NOTE: Do see my other auction for the RARE Mustang high-performance gauge cluster with the 8000 RPM tachometer to compliment this great project car!

Thanks for looking and good luck!

Alan Mulally talks about why Ford's Falcon had to die

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

When Ford made the decision to end production of the Falcon sedan and Territory CUV in Australia, it wasn't a popular move Down Under. The large, four-door Falcon had been in production for 50 years, and while Ford has reaffirmed its commitment to the Australian market, it's understandable that some people still aren't all that crazy about the Blue Oval's decision.
Speaking to CEO Alan Mulally after Ford's Go Further event in Sydney, Australian site Go Auto reports that the decision was not one made lightly, and that the automaker is doing everything possible to respect the Falcon and Territory's "stakeholders." It's an interesting piece that shows a softer side of a corporation, while demonstrating that Ford is doing everything in its power to make the end of production as smooth as possible for all parties.
Head over to Go Auto for the full series of remarks from Mulally, and then let us know what you think of Ford's handling of the Falcon and Territory discontinuations, in Comments.

2014 Ford F-150 Tremor adds some sport to shake things up

Thu, 27 Jun 2013

Like most quakes, the 2014 Ford F-150 Tremor caught us by surprise. We weren't expecting Ford to offer up another version of its best-seller so soon before the truck's full redesign, but that's exactly what the company is doing.
While Ford calls the Tremor a "performance truck," the new pickup doesn't play on the same level as the SVT Raptor does on dirt, or even the long-gone SVT Lightning did on pavement. Think of it as a parts bin sport truck that probably does a better job looking the part than acting it. The Tremor utilizes the same twin-turbo, 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 available across the F-150 lineup, producing 365 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque, but matches it with a 4.10 rear axle - the shortest final drive ratio you can get in an F-150 - for the strongest possible acceleration.
The Tremor does do a decent job looking the part. Available only in short-wheelbase, regular cab configuration with your choice of two- or four-wheel drive, it struts around wearing the F-150's FX Appearance Package, flat black accents, 20-inch black wheels, HID headlights and a special exterior graphics package. The Tremor is the only regular cab F-150 with a flow-through center console, which means it also gets a floor-mounted shifter and bucket seats that are covered in black leather with red piping. Some brushed metal accents and steering wheel with red stitching round out the interior upgrades.

Ken Block is at it again in Gymkhana 6

Mon, 11 Nov 2013

If there's one thing we'll say about Ken Block and his latest installment in the Gymkhana family, it's that it's far more structured than previous videos, but that doesn't mean it skimps on the entertainment. Block is on a purpose-built course which was touted as "The... Ultimate... Gymkhana... Grid... Course" in last week's preview. Unlike Gymkhana 5, which took placed on closed streets in San Francisco, this course seems much more compact.
Block has an entire array of challenges to tackle in his 650-horsepower Ford Fiesta ST, and none of them look particularly easy. In fact, we'd argue that Gymkhana 6's grid course requires much more precise driving that previous titles. There are Segways, Lamborghinis and massive pieces of construction equipment that all must be dealt with.
We've got the entire 6:28 of Gymkhana madness for you down below. Scroll down for the video and then hit Comments and let us know how this installment compares to previous Block works.
