This car is being re-listed due to a listing error on my part. Everything has been corrected and now I'm re-listing. 

All photos were taken 01/30/13 with exception of the main photo which was taken a month ago.

This car has been garage kept and un-driven since 2003!

You are looking at a very nice 1989 Mustang 5.0 hatch. I've pulled most of the dents(I think), replaced the clutch and fuel filter. Did a full tune up, completely gutted the interior. Power washed everything, sanded and primed all rust spots.

 In reference to rust, there is some, but none that couldn't be repaired very easily. There is only one small quarter sized spot on the hatch the has rusted through. Every other spot was just very minor surface rust. The underside of the car is in great condition. The shorty headers I installed in the 90s and the rest is catted 2.5" with flowmasters which are newer. Aside from some misc. bolt ons the car is 100% stock.

Everything else I'm going to list also took place in 1998. BBK progressive rate springs / alignment. Front struts and rear shocks, passenger side pinion arm. Weiand high flow water pump with a three core radiator. Under drive pulleys and a k&n filter(recently cleaned and oiled). The transmission was rebuilt in 1998 as well, but has a syncro issue that was present from the day it came back from the shop. 

It is only noticeable with a down shift to first. If you shift to second then first you never notice it. The clutch and fly wheel are new with zero miles. 

It runs perfectly, but needs headlight bulbs and a battery. I have a battery that we can start the car with, but it is not included. It will also need a new speedo cable as I broke the old one replacing the clutch. The tires are old, but have 3/4 tread and the brakes are the same. I drive the car around the neighborhood to keep it fresh. 

I would not hesitate to drive this car 50 miles, but further than that you should have a plan. The car HAS been sitting in a garage for the last 10 years.

I have a clear NC title in hand. 




Extra side marker lights and an electric fan will also be included.

Ford pits Cobra Jet versus GRC Fiesta ST, worlds collide

Thu, 31 Oct 2013

Racing takes on many forms in the automotive world. There are sanctioned events that are as varied and diverse as NASCAR, Formula One, Global Rallycross and drag racing, and to be good enough to win competitively in one discipline, you need to have a specialized vehicle. Or do you?
Ford decided to find out what would happen when its Global Rallycross Fiesta ST, driven by Tanner Foust, lined up against its Mustang Cobra Jet drag racer, driven by Roy Hill. In one lane, Tanner has just 2.0 liters of displacement to work with, while Roy has more than double that, at 5.0 liters. Evening the playing field a bit, Tanner has a massive turbocharger and all-wheel drive; Roy has to filter all his supercharged power through the rear wheels only.
So, who wins? We suggest you see for yourself in the press release and video below. And we're holding out hope that Tanner's challenge at the end results in another video from Ford Racing...

Ford bringing 10 custom Transit Connects to SEMA

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

With 57 vehicles planned for its SEMA display, it comes as little surprise that Ford has plenty of teasers for its show cars. After showing us what it has in store for the Mustang, Fiesta and Focus ST, now we're getting a look at some of the custom creations based on the redesigned 2014 Transit Connect van.
These nine Transit Connects are decked out to various degrees of customization, but our favorite might be the chopped and lowered Transit Connect from Mob Steel (shown above), which has a similar slammed stance that we see on some custom VW Buses. On the opposite extreme, LGE & CTS Motorsports has jacked up a Transit Connect to make a Cross Country cruiser that we wouldn't mind taking on a road trip.
There are seven other teasers from various companies, and you can check them all out in the gallery above or in the press release below. Ford is also promising a tenth Transit Connect for SEMA, so stay tuned for that as well.

Ford vandalizes the SEMA Show floor with 2014 Transit Connect

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

The Ford booth here at SEMA is practically a 1970s throwback with all these customized vans sitting front and center. And we're completely fine with that. Take the black and yellow (black and yellow, black and yellow) 2014 Transit Connect from Mobsteel above. It's got a great stance, sits on steel wheels and has a pretty cool paint job and graphics package to boot.
Of course, that's not the only van you can see at the Ford booth. In fact, there are 10 Transit Connect vans on display from Ford here at SEMA, and you can see them all in our live gallery of high-res images above. Then, if you want to know more about each specific model, feel free to scroll down to read all about these vans in the official press release from Ford.
