This car was originally a V6 car and my father put a 302 in it before he passed away.  My family kept the car sitting since 1994 or 1995 and I recently obtained it.  It did not run at the time and the fuel tank was trashed, the lines were plugged, the carb needed rebuilt.  We went through the car and replaced the fuel lines, put in a stainless steel fuel cell, electric fuel pump, new double row aluminum racing radiator, external transmission cooler, new transmission lines, new starter, new rag joint in the steering column, etc.  This car already had custom Hooker Headers on it with 3" collectors so we ran 2 1/4" duel exhaust into glass packs.  The car sounds amazing.  The interior is in great shape for how long she sat.  She just needs someone who can finish her, someone who can take on the project. Throughout the motor there are misc aftermarket parts, arp studs here and there.  The story goes that the motor was pulled out of a Bronco and was built for high performance, and then after my dad passed away some of the stock parts were put back on the car.  This car does run and drive.  The car is extremely fast and could be much faster.  This car currently has the stock 2 barrel carb and is still fast, imagine it with a 4 barell. Sadly, the tires are dry rotted, the engine does have a few oil leak as well as the tranny, both from sitting, the electric fans are wired into the key switch, it needs the trunk floor to be finished to accommodate the fuel cell.  However the car does have the original keys, a clean title, and does drive very nice, the lights all work, and best of all the inside does not have that funky smell from sitting most cars get.  The body itself does not have damage other than faded paint.  To put it simple it's a nice light Mustang 2 body with a nice big V8 in it. This car starts and runs and moves under its own power but is not drivable this car is sold as is.

2016 Ford Taurus to ride atop reworked Fusion platform

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

Generally, cars get bigger and heavier as they get older. That's why it looks so ridiculous when you park a classic Mini next to a modern version. The same can be said of the Corvette, the BMW 3 Series, Porsche 911 and, of course, the Ford Taurus. In the Taurus' case, though, that size has become a liability, particularly because the big brute isn't nearly as sizable on the inside as it is on the out.
For 2016, Ford is aiming to rectify that. According to Edmunds, the 2016 Taurus will ride on a stretched and widened Ford Fusion platform. Ford is expecting this move to go a long way in trimming the Taurus' ample body fat.
"The problem with today's Taurus is that it is overweight and even the high performance SHO is not really competitive," said a source that spoke to Edmunds on condition of anonymity. The 365-horsepower SHO variant, "actually weighs about as much as the stretched Audi A8 L. Of course, Audi uses an extensive amount of aluminum, but it is a much bigger car."

First retail 2015 Ford Mustang headed to Barrett-Jackson

Fri, 20 Dec 2013

Want to be the very first person to own a 2015 Ford Mustang GT? Here's what you'll need to do: be in Scottsdale, AZ on January 18 for the Barrett-Jackson auction and bring a very big checkbook. Having a passion for charity isn't a bad idea either.
Yes, the first 2015 Mustang to be sold to the public will be crossing the block at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, with proceeds from the auction going to JDRF, the charity formerly known as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
"Ford Mustangs have always been among the most popular collector cars at Barrett-Jackson Collector Car events," said the president of Barrett-Jackson, Steve Davis. "While every collector wishes they had snapped up the first Mustang sold in 1964, this is an opportunity to realize that dream in a different way."

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.
