A true survivor of time is being auctioned here on ebay with a nominal reserve price. Anyone even remotely interested in antique and classic automobiles should go heads up on this one!
Okay, some pieces of this gem are missing, the original 292 CID V-8 has gone by the wayside as well as the original Cruise-A-Matic transmission, however, if you may have ideas of a
460 V-8 and a C-6 automatic, the drivetrain from a 1976 Lincoln Mark III is available for sale. It will be sold with a "clear" Texas Title.There is very little rust in this vehicle, I have not torn out the original rubber floor mat but from just a quick observation it appears to be minimal at most. Please pay attention to the pictures for the good and the bad features The dent on the right rear quarter panel is just that,, a dent, not rusted through!.Front windshield and rear window are in good shape,, passenger door window is broken, all remaining windows are without cracks or chips. There is no rear seat! The front seat is there and recovering or replacement will be necessary. The front grille is in exceptional condition with NO dings or dents and no rust at all. I have no idea where the park lights/turn signal lights have gone, sorry! This vehicle was originally produced with a (pink) padded dash in Kansas City. A lot of you 50's fans are going to like that option! I have VIN coded the car to obtain some of this information, you are welcome to use this website to verify it's accuracy, http://www.vanpeltsales.com/FH_web/flathead_serialno_49-59VINdecode.htm. The chrome trim on the car is in great shape and can be shined to near perfect, the windsheild trim has a few dents near the driver's side door, and there is a small corner piece missing on the left rear as indicated in the pictures. Front and rear bumpers are in very good shape with no dents or dings. Take a look at the pictures! Let the bidding begin and good luck to all that are eligible.
I report non-paying auction winners to ebay and if you don't want to buy it or cannot afford it,,please do not bid. This vehicle is not driveable! It must be picked up in Amarillo,Texas or shipped to your location. All shipping costs and expenses are the responsibility of the buyer.Seller would assist in loading only.
Payment must be in cash or Certified Bank Note as well as Pay Pal within 7 days of the end of this auction unless other arrangements are agreed upon between the parties. The vehicle will not leave the seller's premises until any form of payment has "cleared".

Martini Mustang is a 'what if moment' gone right
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Feast your eyes on a masterpiece. This is Steve Strope's Ford Mustang in the classic fastback bodystyle, and as you'll notice, it sports the signature colors of Martini Racing, a livery that's as legendary as any Gulf Racing-styled car. But the red, white and blues of the Martini stripe down this Mustang's middle tell only a very small part of the story, in the latest video from Petrolicious.
What would you guess is under the hood? A 289-cubic-inch V8? Maybe a 302, or some absurd Ford crate engine? Maybe Strope went all Tokyo Drift - he's actually responsible for the "Hammer" Plymouth Satellite driven by Vin Diesel at the end of the movie - and found an RB26DETT to drop into the pony car? You'd be wrong on all counts.
This mad, mad man somehow finagled a Ford-Lotus engine from a 1966 Indianapolis 500 car into the Mustang's engine bay. Yes, a Mustang with an engine designed for a 160-mile-per-hour, open-wheel racecar. That's like someone in 40 years dropping McLaren's 2.4-liter V8 from the MP4-28 into a Scion FR-S. It'd just make a monster.
Ring Brothers shows 1965-66 Mustang fastback carbon fiber body
Thu, 07 Nov 2013We covered one of Ring Brothers' more extreme SEMA builds yesterday, the De Tomaso Pantera-based ADRNLN, but if that well-executed but over-the-top Italian-American exotic is too much for you, then perhaps this Ring Brothers 1965 Ford Mustang fastback with a carbon-fiber body suits your tastes better.
What the performance-parts manufacturer is showcasing with the Mustang is the carbon-fiber body itself, which is fashioned around the 1965-66 fastback. It can be bought from the company and bonded to the skin and unibody as a do-it-yourself project, or you can take your Mustang to Ring Brothers and have the body installed there. The fenders, doors and quarter panels are two-inches wider than stock, and Ring Brothers offers a custom widebody chassis to those who want the complete package.
The show car looks sharp in person lowered on HRE wheels, and we appreciate the bare front end so we can see the supercharged V8 and front coilover suspension, though the details on those performance upgrades are slim. Also note the custom independent rear suspension setup at the rear.
2015 Ford Mustang 50th Anniversary Edition says 'happy birthday' in New York
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Fifty years ago this week, Ford debuted the first-ever Mustang at the New York World's Fair. And to celebrate, the Blue Oval is offering up this special, 50th Anniversary Edition 2015 Mustang, which makes its debut at the New York Auto Show. It'll be a seriously limited affair, with only 1,964 examples of the special edition Mustang slated to be produced (the number chosen to coincide with the 'Stang's first year in production). But for those who raise their hands for the 50th Anniversary package, there's a pretty sweet package in store.
The 50th Anniversary Edition is based on the 2015 Mustang GT with the Performance Pack, and is only available in two colors: Kona Blue, or Wimbledon White (pictured). The car also comes fully loaded - the only option for buyers to choose is the transmission. Should you opt for the six-speed automatic, you'll get a limited-slip rear differential with a 3.55:1 final-drive ratio (the 50th Anniversary car is also the only way to get a slushbox-equipped 'Stang with the Performance Pack). Selecting the six-speed manual 'box will net you a Torsen differential with a 3.73:1 ratio. All 50th Anniversary cars will be powered by Ford's 5.0-liter, naturally aspirated V8, estimated to produce more than 420 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque in the 2015 Mustang.
Inside, there's a cashmere-stitched, leather-wrapped steering wheel, with a similar detail found on the instrument panel, shift boot, door inserts, seats, and center armrest. Two-tone leather/black upholstery is also part of the 50th Anniversary package, and of course, there's a special logo on the seats.
