390 big block Mach 1 fire sale!

What a horrible fate for this classic Mustang! A garage fire engulfed this big block Mach 1 and left it in this state. It’s enough to make any motorhead cry!

1966 Mustang Convertible in the weeds

What a sad sight this is. This once great muscle car is just rusting away in someone’s yard. The weeds are about to take over this 1966 Mustang drop top, which restored would be a valuable car, not to mention fun to cruise around in . Continue reading →

Fastback forgotten in storage

This Mustang for sale recently on eBay started life with a 351 Cleveland 4 barrel (M code) mated to a 4 speed manual transmission. It had some nice factory options including power disc brakes, power steering, air conditioning, front and rear spoilers, shaker hood, center console, tach dash, 8-track radio and fold down rear seat. The engine and transmission are long gone unfortunately. Probably scavenged decades ago when this Mustang was first put in storage.

Red on red S code big block Mustang!

Here’s a fun, although rough, project Mustang for sale recently on eBay. The winning bidder paid $6,200 to bring home this big block Mustang fastback. The seller said it had been sitting for many years. I think that’s an understatement. Looks more like decades and not in out of the elements either. Mother nature has certainly taken her toll on this midwest Mustang. And the couple of accidents it’s obviously been in don’t help with the restoration effort. Continue reading →

After 30 yrs in a barn this Mustang has a new owner

This 1965 Mustang was recently dragged out of the barn where it’s been housed for almost 30 years! It’s not Shelby or big block car; just a C code 289-2v with a C-4 automatic. But it’s always fun to find a classic Mustang like this after so many years. And it’s not exactly pristine. Check out the modified tail light panel and interior and trailer hitch! Yikes!

Award winning Mustang goes up in flames

What used to be a rotisserie restored 1965 Mustang sold on eBay recently for $3751. It had been totally cooked in a garage fire several years ago and has been sitting ever since.  The GT fender badges are just for show. It’s only a C-code 289-2v with factory 4 speed manual transmission, but those are no longer with the car. Continue reading →

Fastback literally rusted in half!

This is what sitting in an Iowa field for 20 plus years will do to a Mustang. This 1968 Fastback has some serious potential since it started off life as a Wimbleton White 390 GT big block car. It’s a true S-code with the GT Equipment Group. Unfortunately it’s missing just about everything that makes this car worth something; the engine, transmission, GT parts, etc. Continue reading →

A Grabber Blue 6 cylinder Fastback

The body style and engine combo are a bit at odds on this 1970 Mustang for sale. The ’69-’70 fastback was one of the fastest looking of all the early Mustang styles, but the six cylinder under the hood doesn’t exactly fit that persona. Continue reading →

This neglected Stang gets a new home

The seller who put up this 1965 Mustang for sale describes it as the car he’s wanted his whole life… but never had a chance to restore it. So it sat for almost a decade in his side yard among the weeds and brambles. It’s a 1965 Mustang GT coupe with an A-code 289 cid 4 barrel engine and factory power steering. Clad in Rangoon Red with a black crinkle vinyl interior, it rolled off the assembly line on December 16, 1964. Continue reading →

Seriously Rusted out Mustang!

Now here’s a real rust bucket project Mustang for sale.  Bidding went up to $999, but apparently the owner thinks it’s worth quite a bit more than that because it didn’t hit his reserve. The ad generously describes the car as having “mostly surface rust” but as we all know there’s probably some serious body cancer hidden behind that patina. Continue reading →
