1968 Mustang Coupe
This car was in my family since 1968. i will try to make it short. Dad took it off the road in 1984 to begin restoration. He had it sandblasted in new rear quarters leaded in ( he is a tinsmith by trade). well he got too old and she sat in a barn for the next 22 years. I got it from him in 07 and picked up where he left off. I put all new everything on it. from suspension to brakes. i will add what i did when time permits but just know it was a labor of love. well my interests have changed Im 50 now and 11 grandchildren and camping/fishing is on my list of prioritys. so im going to let her go to someone to finish up and enjoy.
I did have it Pennsylvania state inspected and licensed and insured for about 2 years. i let it run out and she just sits in my garage now.
On Feb-28-13 at 12:55:06 PST, seller added the following information:
Ok i will attempt to itemize things ive done over the years as follows.
Underneath i coated by brush entirely with POR15. (what a mess)
I installed new gas tank and fuel lines, all new brake lines front to back (kit from Laurel Mustang), all new wheel cylinders, brake drums rear, and new brake lining and hardware. new wheel bearings and seals, Rear end pulled and painted with new pinion seal, axle seals, synthetic gear oil.
New 5 leaf rear suspension, New 750 lb front coil springs, new shocks(4). new upper and lower A-arms with grease fittings. all new steering components including pitman arm and idler arm. Original manual steering gearbox (repacked).
Interior new light blue moon crater headliner, new insulation on roof and sail panel area. new dome light and door switches. Dad did repair the floor pans previously. they are solid as well. original material is still under blue seat covers (original is torn and ratty). New dash pad, new instrument bezel and dash (camera case). am-fm philco radio. all glass is original except windshield original was cracked , I used a donor and it is Carlite.
Engine is a late model 5.0 gt roller cam engine. with B303 cam and 68 J-code 4 bbl cast iron intake, with Holley 600 cfm show carburetor w/electric choke. Pertronix dizzy with flame thrower coil. new water pump. 50 .0z harmonic balance wheel (performance products). New radiator, hoses, etc.... Exhaust is true duals with flowmasters and long tube headers.
transmission is original #s matching c-4. I do have a TCI street fighter stall converter to go along (400.00 value right there).
I do have the original #s matching 289 engine to go along too.
Like i said this is running and driving mustang I had it inspected and tagged. but never took it out hardly. (i put 40 miles on the car on the last inspection).
The wheels are Keystone Classics with running horse centers.
this car can sit a month and i hit the pedal once and it fires right up. it will not require any tinkering. it will however need finish sanding and painted. I just ran out of steam..Any additional questions please feel free to ask. Yes you can drive this car home ( i dont know if i would go from Pennsylvania to California but you get my drift). I was always planning on the original Presidential Blue paint but that would be your call. Good luck bidding thanks for looking and God Bless

Ford jumps back in the water with marinized 6.2L V8
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Nameplates like the Mercury Mariner and Lincoln Navigator aside, Ford hasn't offered a marine engine in over two decades. But through a new partnership with one of the biggest names in the business, the Dearborn-based automaker is dipping its proverbial toes back in the water.
Announced yesterday at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the new partnership between Ford Component Sales and Indmar Marine Engines will see the 6.2-liter V8 from the F-150 SVT Raptor and F-Series Super Duty marinized for use in boats.
The largest privately owned inboard gasoline marine engine manufacturer in the world, Indmar has been in the business for 43 years, and figures the Ford V8 will be just what watersport enthusiasts are looking for to tow waterskiers and wakeboarders to their hearts' content.
Ford Ka Concept shown in Brazil, could enter production by 2014
Wed, 13 Nov 2013The Ford Ka (pronounce it like a Bostonian saying "car") is the Blue Oval's sub-Fiesta offering in a number of markets that aren't North America. It's been a staple in Europe since it launched in 1996 and in South America since 1997, where it's enjoyed quite a bit of popularity as an affordable, efficient city car.
The European and South American models grew apart over the years, until Europe ended up with a Fiesta-inspired car and Brazil retained a more evolved version of the original Ka's styling. With this Ka Concept, which is really a concept in name only, Ford is previewing a Ka not just for the European market, but as the brand's new, global small car. With city car sales expected to grow dramatically in coming years and the ever increasing price of fuel, Ford's move to get a new, competitive car into the market on a global level isn't surprising.
Wearing Ford's new, familial grille, the Ka Concept features the same crisp, sculpted sheetmetal that's adorned the Fusion and Fiesta. Developed in-house by Ford Brazil, a production version could launch by 2014, according to Ford's press release. It's unclear what engines will sit under this car's hood, although we'd bet the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Fiesta will be available at some point.
