This mustang has been built right. 100% show quality, looks better than new. No expense spared. Exterior, all trim, engine, trans, rearend, EVERYTHING.  It was a west coast car with zero rust when I got it.  75k miles.  The car was in great condition aside from the paint sun baked.  I had this car stripped down…the RIGHT way.  Doors, hatch, fenders, hood, bumpers, trim, glass all taken out.  Car was sanded, primed and painted better than factory.  Extra charcoal in the black mix, extra clear coat, wet sanded and buffed.  No swirls, mirror finish, darker and shinier than a brand new black car. No tape lines.  Even the door jambs and inside the hatch etc were all prepped and sprayed while it was apart.  Just the paint alone cost $4,500.00.  I easily have 25k wrapped up in this car…and it shows.  You have to see it in person to appreciate it.  Beautiful, rare, black on black 25th anniversary mustang.  Not a scratch, dent, swirl, or chip on it.  Everything is like a new car or better.  I have added a couple pics from before so you can see it was not a basket case.  It looked good already, never seen snow or salt.  There is not even surface rust anywhere underneath the car on any panels or frame rails(uni body).  I wanted it show perfect, not just cruise by perfect.  I am just extremely particular and I have to have my vehicles perfect cosmetically and mechanically.  IT IS LASER STRAIGHT.  No waves in any panels.   (the pics from before resto, it has 4 lug draglites and stock headlights).

While the car was apart, I added a Cervinis 4" Cowl hood(painted under as well), new windshield AND both brand new NOS quarter glasses($500 each, couldn't stand weathered surrounds), ALL new trim around windows and doors(rubber and plastic), ALL new weatherstripping, new doorhandles, new pins and bushings everywhere(doors shut like a cadillac), and new smoked headlights and taillights.

In some pics the car has centerline split spoke wheels, others it has my weld RT/S wheels, and some it has pro stars.  Car will come with the like new pro stars, unless otherwise talked about with me.  I also own a 78 Fairmont I am finishing, and thats the only reason I am considering selling this.  Please do not insult me.  Everything I have is paid for and I don't HAVE to sell this.  I just don't have the time and space.  I have a ton of money and work wrapped up in this car.  Its a very fast, reliable, well built, and show quality street/strip car that fires right up and cruises at highway speed comfortably in 5th or 6th gear.  No expense spared.  No details have been overlooked.  
 
I am more than happy to take pics anywhere on this car, inside and out, in any area you would like.  It has no issues.  If you are concerned with any problem areas, let me know and I can take photos to assure you.  I am sure I am forgetting things.  Just write me and I will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Project Ugly Horse alive and kicking at Road & Track

Thu, 29 Aug 2013

The hallways of the Autoblog campus are much quieter now that Zach Bowman has taken his prose, along with his welders, wrenches and hammers, over to the digital pages of Road & Track, but that doesn't mean our favorite project Mustang is gone forever. Project Ugly Horse is still coming along, and Zach has gifted us another update on his unfoxy Fox Body.
Last we saw of the Ugly Horse, Zach was strengthening up the '89 Mustang's chassis as he prepares to stuff the turbocharged, direct-injected EcoBoost engine of a Ford Focus ST under the hood. First things first, the old mill must go. Head on over to Road & Track to catch the latest chapter of Project Ugly Horse.

1947 Chevy rat rod pickup leaves rubber and smoke in its wake

Thu, 08 May 2014

Cool comes in multiple flavors. One one hand, we have the sophisticated attraction of svelte design and the efficient use of power. Of course, on the other hand there is the allure of being the bad boy and going against the grain. That is part of the appeal of rat rods. Ideally, they are built without rules to an owner's specific tastes, and this widened and heavily modified 1947 Chevrolet pickup rod is a perfect example of that spirit.
Coming down the highway with a bent grille, rusted body and pouring smoke, it looks like the pickup from hell. It backs up the looks with some very impressive mechanicals too. Owner Troy Gubser says that the truck packs a Ford Power Stroke diesel with to 42 pounds of boost that runs out of 8-inch exhaust stacks at the back. He claims it managed 505 horsepower and 885 pound-feet of torque on the dyno. To harness all that power, this hot rod has a ZF five-speed manual gearbox with a ceramic clutch and short-throw shifter. Plus, it has cool little features like a doorbell on the tailgate that operates an air horn.
You might not expect a truck like this to actually be useful, but it has a fifth wheel coupling to haul an RV around drag races and car shows. The air suspension also probably keeps the ride fairly comfy when Gubser wants it to be. Scroll down to check out this beastly rat rod pickup and watch it engage in some diesel drag racing. Warning, there is some NSFW language.

2014 Ford Fiesta Titanium

Mon, 28 Oct 2013

You might not be interested in owning a subcompact (B-segment) hatchback for $20,000. Let's be clear from the get go here: there are any number of reasonable arguments for staying away from the highest-content versions of these small cars. Ford's player in the B-segment arena is the newly updated 2014 Fiesta, and the Titanium trim represents the most luxurious instantiation of the model. We recently were loaned a Fiesta Titanium for a week, whose final sticker price hit $20,390, with navigation being the only standalone option added to the bottom line. By way of comparison, the most basic version of the all new, one-segment-up Mazda3 hatchback costs $19,740 with delivery and destination accounted for, and no options added on.
Hold on to that thought for a moment, we'll get back to it.
