Strangely enough; Ferrari has introduced a manual gated shifter system fir its automatic, I think it may even have a third pedal and another company is offering a retro fit kit for the C8 to shift its automatic. Since I can afford neither I can only hope Ford continues the proper set up on the...
Interestingly GM has an issue with their V8s in their SUV and truck line. If you bring it in and have it inspected and it doesn't require replacement then they change the oil cap and recommendations...from 0W20 to 0W40!!!
Use what the cap says. If there is an issue, change brands. My 03 Mach 1 4.6 32V absolutely hates Mobil 1 but thrives on Castrol Edge. Ford does say that 5W30 is recommended for track use, for street use, 5W20. GT350s, Boss 302s, HioPos and Ford GT get a 5W50 recommendation, but have you seen...
Not only is the most popular Ford oil filter in short supply, the FL500, but so is the PF63 AC Delco, which for all purposes is the exact same filter. The NU2Z filter is a replacement for the 500, so there is an out but the new filter is longer. Also, good luck finding ULV transmission fluid...
I agree w/PP001 that the carry over cars are quite special, and carry a value over 'regular' '66s. There is a very good German Mustang website that has a section dedicated to not only the four convertibles but also the two never built from that batch as well as the continuation cars Shelby...
The difference on the 2015s compared to a 2016 and later will mirror the difference between a 1965 and a 1966. The 66s do bring strong money, while the 65s bring extreme money, and pile on even more for an R model in either generations. And none of those came with AC, except the unicorn level 66...
Nope. the film car(s) were just a Highland Green GT 390 4 speed car. Never built as or sold as a 'Bullitt' at the time. Scott Hoag, who did the '03/'04 Mach 1 did the 2000 Bullitt show car. If you read the book about him and the car development, no one though it would be the success it was, and...
It's absolutely possible, but in a vintage Shelby GT-350? Talk about collectable suicide. Since the host was such a car guy that he blew it on the 4bbl. comment, I tend to think he just flat blew it again.
In 69 all Boss 9s had the Mach 1 style interior, the 70s had semi deluxe or deluxe (Mach 1 style). The Boss 302s could have pretty much anything available interior wise.
