68 Mustang G.t. Coupe 390-2v Candyapple Red White C-stripe Original X-code on 2040-cars
Allentown, Pennsylvania, United States
X-code Mustang produced in 1968 which stands for a special engine size of 390-2V. Its a very rare Mustang, and is not known exactly how many were built. (We contacted Ford in Florida, who stated that it is probable that 528 were produced) The two-barrel big block 390 Cougar engine was put in the Mustang to test the performance of these special Mustangs. The heads and decompression ratio were the same S-code, as the 390V.
The X-code 390 is the only two barrel big block ever installed in the Mustang, and as such it holds an interesting place in history. Options.......................it has the original GT badgeing, automatic transmission, the Tach reaches up to 8000 rpm. It still has the original AM radio. Overhead woodgrain console with map lights. Woodgrain dash, and panels on both doors. It also has chrome GT wheels, original candy apple red paint color, turn signals are in the hood as well as in the front of the car. It also has fog lights, and GT suspension. Drum brakes. Recently installed a 'better cooling' aluminum radiator directly from FORD. We have had the car since 1983. Garage kept. Car is driven all thru-out the summer anywhere from 2 miles -400 miles. Car show ready. |

2013 Hennessey VelociRaptor 600 SUV
Thu, 13 Jun 2013Raptor, Excursion, Texas And Hennessey
Each of those words are synonyms for big and bold - combine all four and you've got one of the largest, most powerful and robust street-going sport utility vehicles in the world.
John Hennessey is a Texas-based tuner known for creating some of the fastest and most capable cars on the planet. Over the past two decades, machines like the Viper Venom 550, Ford GT 1000 Twin Turbo, HPE 700 LS9 Camaro and the almighty Venom GT have emerged from the Hennessey Performance garage. And those are just the celebrated flagships; the company has modified thousands of other street cars including those from Audi, Bentley, Cadillac, Ferrari, Ford, Porsche and Toyota, to name a few.
Next Ford Raptor spotted wearing aluminum skin
Wed, 07 May 2014Well, look at what we have here. Judging from these spy shots, Ford is indeed working on the next generation of its off-road-ready F-150 Raptor pickup truck. We've made no attempt to hide our appreciation for the Baja-style truck, which combines most of the usability of a fullsize truck with heavy-duty suspension components to make a kind of performance vehicle that is unique in the market.
What we haven't known, until now, is whether Ford would push forward with its Raptor program now that it has a completely new F-150 to serve as its base. And that's especially true since Ford made the bold move of switching the bodywork of its best-seller from tried-and-true steel to aluminum. As you can see above, the front and rear of this silver truck are clad in current-gen Raptor bodywork, while the center section that houses the occupants appears to come from the upcoming 2015 F-150.
Dissecting the views above, we note a few interesting tidbits. First, there looks to be a bulge in the truck's hood. Second, we see a new grille between the current Raptor's headlights, sporting a mesh finish and two horizontal bars. Lastly, our eyes can't help but lock in on those burly A-arm suspension pieces down below, not to mention all that ground clearance the specialty suspenders bring to the table.
Preserving automotive history costs big bucks
Wed, 29 Jan 2014
$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
