Dad knew a guy who knew a guy who ran one of those quasi-legal used car lots that specialized in deals-too-good-to-be-true, so, armed with the protection of the referral, he drove off to the wrong side of town to see what might replace the 1980 Ford Fiesta that was about to become my hand-me-down.

Report: 2014 Ford Mustang details leaked, bye-bye Boss 302 1352321940
It seems that Ford has let slip the official order guides for its 2014 Mustang lineup. The changes for the upcoming model year are fairly minimal, as the car was just recently refreshed for 2013, and is expected to get an entirely new model in 2015. Sadly, for us and anyone else that has had the pleasure of driving it, the biggest news here is that the ...

Featured: Project Ugly Horse: Part II 1352318280
Life To The Car, Death To The Slusher Miss Part I of Project Ugly Horse? Read it here. Daniel was not happy. The melting frost had turned the dirt/mold mixture on the Mustang's rear quarter panel into a sort of frog-sweat slime, and his right hand was now covered in the goo.

Imagine, for a moment, this scene taking place way back in the 1960s: "Ford has so much success with the Shelby racing program in the US, they had the new Indy motor that they wanted to get more development out of, they wanted to promote the Mustang more in Europe, and Martini Racing was just coming about. So the idea behind the car is that Ford ...

SEMA: Holman & Moody 50th Anniversary TdF Mustang is a blast from the past 1351806000
It's easy to forget it was Holman & Moody that helped first put a Ford Mustang on track in competition. Well before Carroll Shelby ever spun a wrench on one of the pony cars, H&M served up a set of race engines for Alan Mann Racing. That team took four specially prepared 1964 notchback Mustang models to the 4,000-mile Tour de France Automobile and ...
