1968 Ford Mustang on 2040-cars
Leesburg, Virginia, United States
Beautiful 1968 FORD MUSTANG FASTBACK.
This is a “Turn Key” car that has been completely restored from top to bottom.
This is a Great car that can be driven to car shows and cruise-in's and really be enjoyed.
This car needs nothing but a New Owner and Driver!
Here are the details of the car:
1968 Fastback Mustang with Marti Report, Buck tag, and Door tag.
Body: Car was completely taken apart in 2011.
It was disassembled to a shell and all New Ford sheet metal was used. This includes, New Front Fenders, Inner
Fenders, Battery Box, Radiator Support, Rear Quarters, Front and Rear Valance Panels, New Hood, Headlight Door
Assembly, and Trim, Tail light Chrome, New Bumpers, Hood Hinges.
The old paint on the car was taken off using the razor blade technique to protect the metal instead of using a DA
to remove the paint so that it kept the body lines straight and did not give it the wave down the sides look you
sometimes get from a DA sander. The body prep and paint was done by a Professional Paint Shop and was done right.
The paint is Beautiful Bright Red Base/Clear that was color sanded and buffed to make it very slick with a great
shine. The White C Stripe really gives the car Great Eye Appeal and matches the beautiful Parchment interior.
It has all New Rubber Seals at the Doors, Windows and Trunk area.

eBay Find of the Day: 1987 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe is showroom fresh
Tue, 27 Aug 2013There's an ultra-rare Ford Thunderbird for sale on eBay, although it's not quite the T-Bird you're probably thinking. This is a 1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, complete with a five-speed manual transmission and just a shade over 13,000 miles on the clock. The condition is said to be mint, and judging by the interior and exterior pictures, we're inclined to believe the seller. The paint is glossy and the interior looks showroom new, while the underbody is stunningly clean for a 36-year-old car.
Underhood sits a 2.3-liter, intercooled and turbocharged four-cylinder (also found in the Mustang SVO) that was producing 190 horsepower when it left the factory. Inside, the five-speed manual transmission adds to the car's rarity. The vehicle's sole owner has been as immaculate with the paperwork as he has with the rest of the car - it's all there, including brochures and other product material.
The eBay auction ends tomorrow at midnight (9:00 PM if you're on America's west coast). Bidding has reached $10,200, and there's still plenty of time to get in on this future classic. The vehicle is located in Millstone Township, NJ.
Ford hybrids getting update to improve fuel economy
Tue, 16 Jul 2013Ford has announced that it is introducing "calibration updates designed to improve on-road fuel economy for owners of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid."
We can speculate that these changes are at least due in part to lawsuits over mileage claims of hybrid vehicles. The automaker is enhancing 2013 models starting in August by raising their electric cruising speed to 85 miles per hour from 62 mph, optimizing the use of active grille shutters and the climate control system, shortening the engine warm-up period by 50 percent and reducing electric fan speed to minimize the fan's energy consumption.
It bears mentioning that Ford is doing pretty well in the US electrified vehicle market this year. The company claims to have grown its share in the segment by 12 points to 16 percent while taking a high number of Toyota Prius trade-ins in the process. Conversely, Toyota has experienced a five-percent drop in new-Prius sales over the same period. Additionally, Ford states that it has increased its share of the US vehicle market by one percent this year, more than any full-line automaker.
V6 engines will outpace V8s for the 2015 Ford F-150
Wed, 23 Jul 2014How times have changed. Even five years ago, who would have thought the mighty V8 would be just another engine choice for buyers of the 2015 Ford F-150?
Ford is projecting about 28 percent of the next-generation trucks will have the 5.0-liter V8. That's nothing to sneeze at, but consider this: Ford figures its two EcoBoost truck engines - the new 2.7-liter V6 and the existing 3.5-liter V6 - will also each account for about 28 percent of the F-150's sales (56 percent total). That leaves only 15 percent of the pie for the 3.5-liter (non-EcoBoost) V6. The new F-150 goes on sale late this year.
