1966 Ford Mustang GT coupe with pony interior. I have owned this car for the last 15 years, I purchased it with the intentions of doing a ground up restoration but just never got around to it so I have decided to offer it for sale. This Mustang is a true GT from the light bar grill to the exhaust trumpets. This car has all of it's original metal from the ground up and has never been modified, wrecked, restored, or molested in any way. The only rust that I am aware of is in the driver door front in the wide white stripe and it could be covered with two quarters. This car was purchased new in California and remained there the first 22 years of it's life. In 1988 the original owner gave it to his son for a wedding present and it was driven back to Kansas where it sat in a garage for approximately 10 years. I purchased the Mustang in 1998 from the son and it has sat in a garage for the last 15 years. This is an amazing survivor, to be 47 years old, with 79,067 actual miles, still wearing it's original emberglow paint and emberglow and parchment pony interior. The paint is worn through in spots from washing and buffing, and the interior is starting to show wear. A few years back I purchased a complete set of new pony seat covers because I was concerned that this color would be discontinued. These covers were never installed and will go with the car. The body over all is very straight, the worst place is on the driver front fender and looks like something fell against it and left a crease. There are a few other minor scrapes, scratches and dings one would expect on a car that was on the road for 22 years. All of the glass is in excellent condition and appears to be factory tinted. On the interior, the headliner has a hole in it, the original dash pad does not have any cracks, the door panels do not have any cracks, the carpets still look very good, both bucket seats have seams that have opened up, and the back seat looks like it has never been sat in. The dash is complete with all the gauges still intact and the original AM radio still in place. As you can tell from the pictures this car has a full console and a Rally Pac (tachometer and clock). The pony wood grain steering wheel does not have any separation from setting in the sun. The car still has it's original styled steel factory wheels with trim rings and centers. As you can tell from the pictures, the underside of this car is in great condition including the frame rails, trunk drops, floor pans, shock towers, trunk floors, battery area, and the car has never been undercoated. This Mustang is still powered by it's original 289CI / 225HP 4 barrel engine and it's C-4 automatic transmission. The carburetor is still the 4100 Ford original. Through the years the engine has been started at least once a year. Due to long term storage the car is currently not road worthy. I can start it with a can of starting fluid and a jump box so potential buyers can hear it run, but it will not pull itself onto a trailer. The brakes are not working, and the tires are over 15 years old, and the mufflers are starting to show their age. This is an excellent example of an early GT equipped original Mustang with a very rare low production color combination that with very little effort can be returned to it's original legendary showroom condition. I have tried to describe this Mustang to the best of my ability but have probably missed something that you need to know, if so just ask. If you would like to inspect this car prior to the end of the auction, again, just ask and arrangements will be made. Please do not ask if I have a buy it now price, because I do not. Since I do not know how much this car is worth I am hoping Ebay will help determine that. This car has a good Missouri title. The winning bidder will not be disappointed. The buyer will be responsible for all transportation costs if required.

Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.
2014 Roush Stage 3 Mustang
Fri, 26 Jul 2013Up until now, it's been some years since I managed to get behind the wheel of the hot Mustangs tuned by the folks at Roush Performance. My memories of those vehicles are fond, as the Roush up-fits usually make for better-driving examples of the iconic Ford pony, with better-tuned suspensions, excellent short-shift kits and, of course, huge additions of power. The wake-your-neighbors aural characteristics of these cars have been nothing short of outstanding, too.
But in the years since my last experience with the Roush formula, Ford's own development team has churned out some pretty potent 'Stangs. We currently live in a world where the Blue Oval will sell you a Mustang with 662 horsepower from the factory, and the recently departed Boss 302 remains one of the best Mustangs - and best sports coupes - the Autoblog crew has ever driven.
So with great-driving and hugely powerful Mustangs coming straight off the line at Ford's Flat Rock Assembly Plant, does the Roush package still offer that extra special something to make it stand out? I spent a week with a Stage 3 coupe to find out.
European car sales up 8% in February
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.
