2005 Ford Mustang on 2040-cars
Alba, Texas, United States
Just email me at: blythebccramblit@ukfamilies.com .
2005 Mustang Saleen S281SC. This is 1 of just 31 Mineral Grey Saleens every built on
the S197 platform and 2005 was the last year that color was produced. It was originally supercharged with 400hp to
the crank and backed with a manual transmission. I have owned the car for 10 years and at one time used it as my
daily but here more recently have only driven maybe 300 miles in the past 3 years. It's time to let someone else
own it that will be able to enjoy it! It has been heavily modified, well know, been on vendor websites and can be
seen on youtube. It stickered at 59K new and came optioned with HID Headlights, Front Big Brake Upgrade with cross
drilled rotors, supercharger, Saleen exterior package, interior package, extractor hood and wing. I have around 25K
- 30K invested in modificaitons on top of the vehicle cost. I did not buy 2nd hand parts, all were purchased
direct from the vendors with no expense spared.

Countless hours on the dyno between Dallas Mustang and HPP Racing
NT05 tires all on all 4 corners.
The car has made over 700 rear wheel horsepower on pump gas, 18lbs of boost with Bosch 80lb injectors, and 76mm
precision turbo. The car had little low end power and significant turbo lag.
In the last 200 miles I have had some additional work done.
Morgan and Sons installed custom forged pistons and rings with slightly higher compression to bring it up from
8.2:1 to 9.0:1 to be more in line with the 2013 GT500 compression ratio. They also did a valve job
$3,200
When I got it back I used new Cometic gaskets and ARP studs again for another $750
I also replaced the Precision Journal Bearing turbo with a Precision 67mm Ball Bearing and the difference in how
fast the boost spools is significantly better.
$2,200

Ford family keeps special voting rights
Fri, 10 May 2013Ford Motor Company has a dual-class stock structure of Class A and Class B shares. The roughly three billion Class A shares are for the general public like you and me, while the roughly 71 million Class B shares are all owned by the Ford family. Each Class A share gets the shareholder one vote, each Class B share is worth 16 votes, the result being that Common Stock holders control about 60 percent of the company while the Ford family controls 40 percent even though it holds far fewer shares. The only way that could ever change would be if the Fords sell their Class B shares, but even so, Class B shares revert to Class A when sold outside the family, so they'd have to sell a whole bunch of them.
A contingent of Class A shareholders think the dual-class system is unfair, and for the past few years a vote's been held during the annual shareholders meeting to end it. It has failed every time, as it just did again during the meeting held this week. A smidge over 33 percent voted to end the dual system, outvoted by the 67 percent who are happy with the way Ford is going - unsurprising in view of a corporate turnaround that will be part of business-class curricula for years to come.
On the sidelines, Ford elected Ellen R. Marram to the post of independent director, the first woman to hold the job. The former Tropicana CEO and 20-year Ford board member replaces retiring board member Irvine Hockaday who helped bring Alan Mulally to the CEO position.
Ford will build Hackmobile out of Transit Connect Wagon
Fri, 27 Dec 2013What you see in the above image is a rendering of the Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon. What is that? It's a "mobile fabrication and hacking unit" that includes tools for metal- and woodworking, 3D and electronics fabrication, a three-axis CNC machine called "The Fabber," a video projector and screen, an air compressor, an 84x48-inch work surface that folds out like a Murphy bed and oh so much more. When not in use, all of the implements fold neatly into the back of Ford's award-winning van.
But perhaps the more important question is why is that? Because Make Magazine held an Ultimate Maker Vehicle Challenge in conjunction with Ford in which ten teams created were charged with creating "the ultimate Ford Transit Connect Wagon for the do-it-yourself enthusiast." Team Twin Cities Maker won the competition with the Hackmobile, and in addition to winning $10,000, Ford has declared it's actually going to build the thing - which is great, because if they can actually engineer a road-legal Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon as envisioned, the inevitable A-Team movie reboot might need to think about including it.
Check out the video below for a cheeky walk-through of the Hackmobile, and get all the particulars in the press release below that.
Auto industry insider previews tell-all book, What Did Jesus Drive?
Tue, 11 Nov 2014
"It's about some of the biggest crises in history. It's about who did it right and who did it wrong." - Jason Vines
Jason Vines, the former head of public relations at Chrysler, Ford and Nissan, has seen a lot during his more than 30-year career, and now he's offering a behind-the-scenes look at the auto industry in his tell-all book What Did Jesus Drive? that went on sale this month.
