For the many people who are into restoring Mustangs in the UK and Europe, parts availability has just been made easier. Essex Racing has announced that they have launched a website and mail order hotline to aid car restorers to find parts in restoring the classic Ford Mustang.

They stock everything there from panels, chrome parts, interior trim, lights, bumpersand even original badges and decals. All the regular service parts are available to ensure a classic Ford Mustang car is serviced exactly as Ford intended, although if originally isn’t essential there are also parts from recognised American tuners such as Edelbrock, Shelby and Fidanza there too.

Everything is priced in Pounds (GBP) and can be sent by mail order. Unlike American websites there won’t be a need to use Dollar conversions and work out import tax and international shipping and if a customer needs help, they won’t have to make transatlantic phone calls at odd hours.

The number of people who have taken up car restoration is growing and with a classic vehicle such as the Ford Mustang (1965-1973) posing as a hard to restore vehicle, the opening of this website should address that hindrance and allow them to fully restore this classic vehicle to how it really was when it first hit the streets!

Travel and road navigation is expected to get better as GPS Insight has announced that it is now capable of integrating with the Garmin Nuvi devices. With GPS Insight’s GPSI-4000, customers may now send destinations to several supported Garmin navigation devices, which then give drivers automatic, visual and audible turn-by-turn directions to their destination. Customers may also use this solution to send and receive messages, obtain driver login and status information, and wirelessly send a list of custom Points of Interest.

The new GPS Insight Navigation solution integrates tracking, navigation, and traditional MDT-like functionality. The GPSI-4000 and Garmin combination will increase overall driver and dispatch efficiency. Using simple choices on the web based GPS Insight dashboard, customers will now be able to wirelessly send one or more stops to a driver’s Garmin.

Clicking on a vehicle, landmark, or address will allow a user to dispatch a vehicle to several destinations each day. Dispatchers will see a list of vehicles that have been dispatched and their arrival status at a particular location. Messages, as well as automated speeding, idling, and odd-hours alerts may also be sent to a driver’s Garmin, which may help companies eliminate the need for cell phones.

GPS Insight will begin sales and support for this product beginning in mid-May 2009, and will continue to add functionality throughout 2009. GPS Insight’s Garmin Navigation Integration will first be demonstrated at NAFA’s I&E Expo in New Orleans, LA on April 26 and 27, 2009.
