It does need work mostly cosmetics and paint. Do not expect to get in this and drive it home.It is an easy restoration needing paint and is in very solid condition."

 This is a factory "A" Code 4 Speed GT car in Poppy Red. VIN # 5F07A692233 is clearly on the drivers side shock tower (see picture). The VIN plate is missing on the dash and drivers side door. It has a clear Delaware title under the previous owners name which I will be getting put in to my name sometime this week. The car was last tagged in 02 and has sat since then. We drained the gas tank,had the Holley single pump professionally rebuilt locally by Stinger Engines,new Autolite plugs installed,changed the oil and filter and put a new fuel filter in(canister type). It runs a little rough before it warms up but idles smoothly once warm.I never adjusted the points or put a dwell meter on it,just set the timing.It does not knock or smoke. The engine is stock with the exception it has a Holley 600 CFM Single pumper Carburetor with a low rise old school aluminum intake. There is also a Lakewood blow proof bell housing with stock cast iron exhaust manifolds and dual exhaust with the trumpets coming out the back.As far as I know the engine has never been apart and it still has the 65 style canister type fuel filter.The exhaust is quiet and there are no tapping lifters .The clutch has some travel before releasing but it is not slipping or chattering.It has the factory T Handle shifter and will drive down the road. It stops and steers and has the factory Kelsey Hayes 4 piston brakes up front. The car is very solid along with the frame rails and floors,shock towers,quarter panels both inside and out and the trunk floor. If you have restored one you know this is where the problem areas are. The right front fender is bubbled on the lower end (see picture) and should be replaced.There is also some surface rust under the rear window molding (see picture). The car looks great from 20 feet away, although it does need waxed and could use a paint job. There is a big scrape on the drivers side top fender and hood and part of the cowl panel where something must of fell on it (not dented). The wheels are rusty from sitting,I had to repair one flat tire and amazingly it had a original center cap not a repo. There is an extra styled steel wheel with tire in excellent condition in the trunk. Missing jack and hold down. The tires do hold air but have some cracking from age and should be replaced along with the wheels. The odometer reads 91,509 which I believe to be original since the title I had when last registered on 6/8/02 had 87,283 on it.The interior will need the carpet replaced since it is faded and torn. Also the drivers seat needs recovered.It has the deluxe wood grain 140 MPH speedometer and wood grain glove box. Standard seats and door panels with deluxe door handles.Aftermarket steering wheel (I have the original black wheel with horn ring included) and power steering.It has aftermarket seat belts and the back deck panel just below the rear window is cut and has aftermarket 6X9 speakers in it. There is a aftermarket Mustang cassette radio in it with some wires hanging from under the dash from the radio. I also have the original AM Radio included. Has the original Fog light switch under the dash (pictured). Will need some wiring work turn signals not working as well as some other things. This would be a very easy restoration on a very desireable solid car which is hard to find. Would make a great father son project. Once again this is a car that needs restored and needs mostly cosmetics such as outside door handles, gas cap, back up lamps that have pitting and are a easy fix. The bumpers are decent driver quality as well as the fog lamps that say fog on them and are not cracked. I put new tail light doors on with Ford part #s and one of the lenses is a little faded.E-Mail me with any questions before bidding or you can reach me on my cell at (302)222-5881.Please ask your wife ,husband partner or whoever before bidding and only bid if you have the money.We take our auctions seriosely and have a 100% feedback.A $500 pay-pal deposit is due 5 days after auction end with the balance being wired to our account within 10 days of auction end.We will provide you with a routing number and account number after auction ends.

Woman trades 1914 Model T in for 2013 Corvette

Wed, 17 Apr 2013

We're sure that dealers must see all sorts of interesting trade ins, but this one may take the cake. Red River Chevrolet in Bossier City, Louisiana, recently had a customer come in with an odd request. Tina Boyter wanted to trade in three vehicles on a brand-new 2013 Chevy Corvette. Among the hardware was 1980 Corvette, a 1978 Cadillac Eldorado and a 1914 Ford Model T. While the '80 Corvette had been her personal car for years, the '78 Eldorado had belonged to Boyter's mother before she traded up to a Lincoln. The big Caddy had just 10,290 miles on the clock when it was traded in.
And the Model T? Boyter says the car was built as a racer by Ford, and that it had been a show winner for years when it belonged to her father. But, after spending the last 16 years in a museum with its fluids drained, Boyter decided it was time to shed some of the past. She walked into the dealer, laid eyes on a white 2LT Corvette with a red interior and offered to trade all three of the vehicles in on the sports car.
Why not wait for the C7? "I fell in love with that one when I walked in the door," She said. We can't fault her there.

Barrett-Jackson 2014: First production 2015 Ford Mustang earns $300k for JDRF [w/video]

Sat, 18 Jan 2014

We've almost become immune to the huge dollar amounts that collectible cars earn for charity at Barrett-Jackson. To wit, $300,000 for the first production 2015 Ford Mustang initially didn't seem like very much money. In reality, though, it's probably about 10 times the actual asking price for the car, and we're pleased to report that 100 percent of the proceeds will go to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
According to Ford, the car's winning bidder will get to "choose a fastback with manual or automatic transmission, and any interior, exterior and stripe color combination offered by Ford on the all-new Mustang." Power will come from a slightly revised version of the well-known 5.0-liter V8 engine that will produce "more than 420hp and 396 pound-feet of torque."
We snapped live images of the 2015 Mustang prototype that Ford had on display here at Barrett-Jackson, and you can check them out above. The official auction description, along with a video of the auction as it happened live, is below.

Detroit automakers gain market share simultaneously for first time in 20 years

Wed, 01 May 2013

While monthly sales figures might be an easy way of tracking the progression of the auto industry and individual automakers, looking at market share might be more indicative of how each company is actually standing up against its competitors. For the Detroit Three automakers, they have collectively lost almost 30 percent of the market over the last 20 years, but now, for the first time since 1993, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler have each posted market share gains at the same time.
According to Automotive News, Ford's share increased the most by 0.7 percent, GM was up 0.5 percent and Chrysler rose marginally by 0.2 percent, giving the Detroit automakers a total market share of 45.6 percent. As for the Japan's Big Three, the article reports that Toyota is up by 0.7 percent, Nissan is down the same amount and Honda has seen "little change."
