For sale is my very original & clean black 1984 Mustang GT convertible. It is getting harder and harder to find an early foxbody Mustang that hasn't been abused over the years. This is not a show car and has its fair share of dings and small stratches. With that said, this is a nice example of an unmolested early production 84 GT convertible with the traction bar rear suspension design and without fog lights. The engine and drivetrain are original with the 5.0L HO and 5 speed transmission. It includes the "Manufactured for Motorcraft by Holly" carburetor, dual snorkle air cleaner and single exhaust with chrome dual tip. The only significant thing not original to the car is the aftermarket radio. Purists will note the 83 GT style hood (I do have the original 84 GT hood) that I added as I was in the process of converting this to a 1983 GT Convertible triple black clone. I do have a complete 1983 black convertible interior ( and 3.8L car) that I will let the buyer have if he/she wants to compete the project. This car has the TRX package but I have installed the later style 16" Pony 5 star wheels that will come on the car. However I do have a set of original TRX wheels (shown but NOT included) with very good tires OR a set of the optional factory correct 14" wheels (also shown) that have BRAND NEW BF Goodrich Radial TA tires that can be purchased separately. The car runs and drives well and I invite test drives. The car is equipped with AC and cruise control but neither is working at this time- I have not tried to figure out what is wrong. The black power convertible top with glass rear window is newer and in great condition- no rips, tears or split seams however it looks like someone cut the top to break into the car sometime in the past. It has been well repaired and doesn't leak but it is clearly visible when the top is up. Car is for sale locally so is subject to prior sale. I will help arrange shipping but shipping will be at buyers expense. Please contact me with any questions as I'm happy to provide more information.

Has the 2015 Ford Mustang gained hundreds of pounds?
Sun, 01 Jun 2014Automakers face competing interests when it comes to developing a new generation of vehicle. On the one hand, companies want to build their cars to be safer and better handling, with more equipment and maybe even larger dimensions over the model it's replacing. On the other hand, they strive to keep weight down to the benefit of both performance and fuel consumption. Usually something has to give, and in the case of the new 2015 Ford Mustang, those efforts may have resulted in a weight penalty of two or three hundred pounds.
This according to Blue Oval modifier Steeda Autosports, which states that "the 2015 Mustang ended up gaining 200-300 pounds in this remake". Despite the Mustang not being on the market yet, it would appear the leading Ford aftermarketer has been given early access to the 2015 model to help jumpstart its tuning efforts (a rather common development among trusted tuners). If Steeda's assertion is accurate, that would make the challenge of getting the new pony car up to speed for both Ford and aftermarket customizers like Steeda that much greater.
We're waiting for official word from Ford on the veracity of Steeda's claim, but if true, it's bound to be a bit of disappointing news for legions of Blue Oval performance enthusiasts. Watch this space for more.
George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]
Sun, 20 Jan 2013Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.
Crowdsource funding push on to save historic Ford buildings
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Detroit has no shortage of old, abandoned buildings, both within the city and in the surrounding communities. Few, though, have the historical significance of the old Ford Highland Park facility. Home to the very first moving assembly line, Highland Park was designed by the legendary Albert Kahn, and was one of the homes of the Model T.
Now, the Woodward Avenue Action Association is attempting to buy both the 40,000-square-foot admin building, which is located off the historic Woodward Avenue, and an 8,000-square-foot garage. The WAAA's goal is to convert the buildings into an automotive heritage center. The Detroit News spoke to the interim director of the WAAA, Deborah Schutt, who commented, "[Metro Detroit has] not been very good at telling our own story. So we've decided, let's pull everything together and tell our story."
The WAAA made an offer of $550,000 to buy the two buildings, and has $400,000 from the Michigan Department of Transportation and another $15,000 from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation. It's trying to raise a further $125,000 through crowd-sourcing, starting a campaign called "Five Dollars A Day," after old Hank Ford's $5-per-day wage for line workers.
