This is a frame up restored original Mach 1 mustang purchased from the original owner before restoration. The mileage is showing 37,000 but is believed to be 137,000. The mileage since restoration is 2,800. The original drive train has been overhauled by a 30+ year experienced Ford Technician. All mechanicals have been redone including : Brakes, exhaust, engine, transmission, and A/C. All gauges, switches, tachometer, lights, and hinges work perfectly. This car was never dented and the gaps and body lines are perfect. No expense was spared when the original Gold Glow paint was put on the car. The paint work is flawless. The interior is likewise done to perfection and the Luxury Vinyl Ginger was totally redone to factory specification. The correct ford flat black paint was used on the hood unlike most mustangs I have seen redone through the years. The Q-code 351 Cleveland has minor internal upgrades and was built for pump gas. An edelbrock aluminum intake was added along with tube headers. The original intake and exhaust manifolds are available if wanted. The car has two small corrections that need to be made: 1) The a/c compressor is new and needs to be converted to r-134 and has a line leak. The new line is included. 2) The o-ring in the transmission fill line has a drip. I am listing this car for a friend and will give you his telephone number if you want to talk to him personally. Send me a message through ebay messaging if you want to contact the owner. The car is titled in Virginia.

Ford using robot drivers to test durability [w/video]
Sun, 16 Jun 2013In testing the durability of its upcoming fullsize Transit vans, Ford has begun using autonomous robotic technology to pilot vehicles through the punishing courses of its Michigan Proving Grounds test facility. The autonomous tech allows Ford to run more durability tests in a single day than it could with human drivers, as well as create even more challenging tests that wouldn't be safe to run with a human behind the wheel.
The technology being used was developed by Utah-based Autonomous Solutions, and isn't quite like the totally autonomous vehicles being developed by companies like Google and Audi for use out in the real world. Rather, Ford's autonomous test vehicles follow a pre-programmed course and their position is tracked via GPS and cameras that are being monitored from a central control room. Though the route is predetermined, the robotic control module operates the steering, acceleration and braking to keep the vehicle on course as it drives over broken concrete, cobblestones, metal grates, rough gravel, mud pits and oversize speed bumps.
Scroll down to watch the robotic drivers in action, though be warned that you're headed for disappointment if you expect to see a Centurion behind the wheel (nerd alert!). The setup looks more like a Mythbusters experiment than a scene from Battlestar Galactica.
GM also sheds parts from its pickups to boost payload ratings
Thu, 31 Jul 2014The row between Ford and Ram over who boasts the best-in-class tow rating for heavy duty pickups has revealed a number of things. Chief among them is a report that Ford removes items like the spare tire, jack, radio and center console from its vehicles in a bid to lower its base curb weight and therefore keep the truck's gross vehicle weight rating down.
For those that need a refresher, GVWR is the vehicle's curb weight plus its maximum payload. A lower GVWR allows Ford to station its F-450 among the so-called Class III pickups, despite the fact that internally, it has the makings of a more brutish Class IV truck.
Ford explains away these deletions, saying a customer could order their vehicle in such a manner. It has also come to light that Ford is not the only automaker to engage in such practices.
Ford hiring 800 more salaried workers than originally expected
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Ford is on a roll this year, with excellent quarterly earnings and better-than-expected vehicle sales leading to 800 more job opportunities with the Blue Oval. In January, Ford announced that it wanted to hire 2,200 salaried employees, but, since then, that figure has been revised to 3,000, representing a 36-percent increase over original projections. About 1,500 of those jobs remain, 80 percent of which are technical professional positions.
"Engineers and technical professionals are in as much demand as our cars, trucks and SUVs," says Felicia Fields, Ford Group Vice President for Human Resources. Helping to spur this job growth are increasing market share on both the West and East Coast and robust demand for the Ford Escape and F-150.
To find job candidates, Ford is reaching out to them via Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, in addition to the company's corporate career site. The Blue Oval is also ramping up its presence on college campuses.
