Ford Mustang 1966

Allmän beskrivning : Want some incredible Ford muscle? Want it in a package that doesn't require red ropes and a car bubble? Well, as the old saying goes: 'Car culture starts where the assembly line stops'. And now that more and more authentic, numbers-matching classics are being confined to private collections, enthusiasts are filling the void with creations like this killer Mustang resto-mod. The beneficiary of a ground-up, nut-and-bolt restoration, this neat notchback wraps a spry 302/5-speed drivetrain in bold, Bullitt-esque aesthetics that dramatically emphasize form. If you've always dreamed of owning a choice pony car, but don't want the inherent stress that comes with authenticity, here's the perfect solution!
ALL BLUE, ALL BUSINESS
The beneficiary of a three-year nut-and-bolt restoration that was completed by Gordon's Classic Restorations of Dallas, Georgia, this choice resto-mod is constructed of largely original sheetmetal that's been fully blasted, carefully prepped and highly polished. By fully blasted, we mean media-blasted bare. By carefully prepped, we mean straightened at the hands of professionals. And by fully polished, we mean coated in sophisticated Nightmist Blue two-stage that's both classy and unique. At the front of that pigment, a polished bumper splits traditional headlights, traditional parking lamps and a factory grille that's been shaved of its horse. Behind that grille, a stainless-trimmed hood props an aggressive scoop in front of muted wipers and a stainless-trimmed greenhouse. At the sides of that glass, polished drip rails shade a sculpted profile that's been shaved of everything but a factory mirror and factory handles. And at the back of that profile, a second polished bumper splits an ornate fuel filler, bright taillights and polished exhaust tips.
PERFECTING THE 302
Hoist the hood and you'll find 302 cubic inches of Ford Roller crate engine that was acutely tuned during the car's detailed restoration. At the top of that machined and seasoned mill, a billet-capped air cleaner funnels wind into a coated Holley 4-barrel that's wired to an electronic choke. The resulting air/fuel mixture makes its way from an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake to iron GT40 heads. Those heads prop stylish Edelbrock covers on stainless valves, hardened guides, screw in studs and Manley chromoly pushrods. The Jet Black block hides a balanced rotating assembly that's built with an Eagle crank, Eagle I-beam rods and high performance pistons. A custom-grind COMP hydraulic roller cam works well with a hot HEI distributor, a double-roller timing set and proven Taylor plug wires. Spent gases are jettisoned through coated long-tube headers. Cooling is provided by an aluminum Northern radiator. Oiling gets handled by a high quality Melling pump. Construction included a roster of first rate details, like ARP bolts, performance bearings and hand-filed performance rings. And overall, the car's smoothed and body-matched engine compartment is exceptionally well done, featuring ancillaries like a proven Optima battery, a contrasted Edelbrock breather and a chrome dipstick.
BUILT TO ENJOY!
At the bottom of this pony, a trusty Tremec TKO500 5-speed twists torque to an 8-inch Ford axle that turns fun, 3.55 gears. That pumpkin pushes a lowered independent front and solid axle rear suspension that's supplemented with Scott Drake springs and Bilstein shocks. Braking is class, with 4-piston Wilwood calipers leading rebuilt factory drums. Borgeson power steering dials in the turns. The aforementioned headers dump spent gases into aluminized pipes, which align an H-shaped crossover with buff Flowmaster mufflers. And everything rolls on American Racing Torq Thrust IIs, which spin smoked chrome reflections inside 225/45ZR17 BF Goodrich g-Force Sports and 235/45ZR17 BF Goodrich g-Force Sports.
CLASSIC DONE RIGHT
Pop this 'stang's doors and you'll find a crisp Parchment interior that's clean, contrasting and exceptionally cool. Stainless-trimmed buckets both look and feel great. In front of those thrones, a stylish dash frames bright AutoMeter telemetry that keeps precise tabs on the car's vitals, and modern JVC audio that jolts big Kicker DS speakers. At the floor, fade-free carpet frames a short Hurst shifter. Opposite that stick, stainless-trimmed door panels hang small armrests beneath polished handles. And the driver spins a thick, Mustang-themed steering wheel.
Fully sorted and ready to cruise, this impressive Ford is a timeless take on the traditional pony car premise. With great performance, a classic driving experience and killer looks, it's the kind of car that'll have you thanking yourself with every walk to the garage. Ready to own one of the hottest muscle cars on the planet? Your Mustang is waiting!

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.

Idag klassiska Fords är mycket populär bland entusiaster och ett stort urval av klassiska Fords finns till försäljning på www.ClassicDigest.com
