69k Mile SURVIVOR!  
Here is a very nice 1966 Ford Thunderbird in great condition inside and out. This beautiful bird is an absolutely solid and very original car with what we believe to be 69,000 original miles as stated by the Arizona title. Another reason we believe this is a low mileage car is the mostly original interior condition as well as all chrome and mostly original paint aare both are in exceptionally good unmolested condition. The car is completely solid and I could not find a single spot of rust on this car. The region code on the build sheet will back up this claim since it shows DSO 61 as the original delivery region which is Dallas, TX and the car still has its Texas black plates and registration sticker on the front window. Bid now and don't miss out on your chance to own a solid, well documented Texas Thunderbird....Bid Now! The list of some of the equipment:
-345hp Q-Code 428ci V8 -Automatic 3spd Transmission -Power Steering -Power DISC Brakes -Power Windows and Vents -Power Door Locks -Sequential Turn Signals -Optional AM/FM Radio -Swing Away Steering Wheel -White Walls -Fender Skirts -Beautiful Original Hubcaps -ICE COLD Factory A/C
The exterior on the car is in great condition and is solid as a rock. The paint almost all original around the car with just a few small touch up blends and the lower front valance re-painted to touch up many years of rock chips. The Bird was just color sanded and buffed and brightened up to a nice shine and luster and gets looks good, and gets thumbs up from everybody as it goes down the road. The chrome is original and in awesome condition with no pitting or scratching and a zero dings. All glass and rubber seals are in good shape and the windshield is crack free. The car is riding on 15" period correct whitewalls with original Thunderbird caps.
The interior is in great shape all around. All gauges are in excellent condition as well as the steering wheel which is crack free. The radio works and is cosmetically in great shape. The headliner and visors are in exceptional original condition. Reproduction black rubber Thunderbird floor mats are also included. All seats are original vinyl with only the bottom cushion on drivers seat appearing to be redone. The dashboard does have two cracks and has a dash mat installed. The door panels are original and in excellent shape. All windows, switches, and gauges are working correctly. The window system was just completely overhauled with all new switches, new drivers window motor, and new window gears in all four windows. The Arizona heat is notorious for deteriorating the plastic in these components so they were all replaced for full reliability.
Mechanically, this Thunderbird runs great. The highlight of this car is what lurks under the hood. A 345hp beast in the shape of a Q code 428 Big Block. The motor provides ample power to move the car around comfortably. All correct accessories are in place and the motor has been completely detailed to original condition including use of correct Ford Blue paint and application of all correct decals and hood insulation. Many new parts were installed during the freshen up. The mechanical system as well as the suspension on this car is in perfect working condition and needs nothing.
The trunk still has all new paneling and mats and looks like new. All correct jacking tools are present as well as a good spare tire.
All in all, this is one very clean and very respectable '66 T-Bird Survivor. This car is a great example of a solid western car which has been well taken care of and is a car you can be proud to drive anywhere.

Ford looks to protect logo from Toronto mayor followers
Fri, 15 Nov 2013One is a member of the Detroit Three and the maker of the Mustang, Fusion, Explorer and F-150. The other is an admitted loudmouthed, drunk-driving, crack-smoking mayor in Canada. Unfortunately for one, it shares its name with the other. Yes, Ford Motor Company is going to great lengths to keep its iconic Blue Oval logo from being appropriated by supporters of besieged Toronto mayor Rob Ford.
At a United Way event earlier this week, some of Mayor Ford's fans showed up with shirts that featured the automaker's logo with the words "Ford Nation," on them. Naturally, Mayor Ford signed them. FoMoCo was quick to issue an unhappy statement:
"Ford did not grant permission for use of its logo. We view it as an unauthorized use of our trademark and have asked it to be stopped," spokesperson Jay Cooney said. There was also a statement from Ford of Canada's Twitter account after a user alerted the company:
2014 Ford Fiesta gets fuel economy bump to 41 mpg
Fri, 07 Jun 2013The 2014 Ford Fiesta is in showrooms now with refreshed styling and new performance ST model, but it's what isn't yet available that should help the Fiesta stand out from the growing crowd of subcompacts. Aside from the new 1.0-liter EcoBoost model coming later this year, Ford recently told us that a new Fiesta SFE trim level is on the way that should put the updated Fiesta at the top of its class for fuel economy.
The new Fiesta SFE will hit an estimated 41 miles per gallon on the highway when equipped with the six-speed automatic transmission. The current listing on fueleconomy.gov shows the 2014 Fiesta getting up to 29 mpg city and 39 highway, but the SFE will get minor aero tuning and a recalibrated engine controller to help bump the highway figure past rivals like the Chevrolet Sonic and Nissan Versa - both of which top out at 40-mpg highway. There's still no word as to when the small 1.0-liter EcoBoost will show in the US, but Ford has indicated that engine's fuel economy isn't expected to be released until October.
How Ford hid the 2015 Mustang from spy photographers
Fri, 20 Dec 2013Now that we've finally seen the 2015 Ford Mustang, it's fun to go back and look at the spy shots we spent months pouring over, trying to dissect what was under all the camouflage. For the most part, Ford did a good job of concealing the car from spy photographers, and it released a video showing how much work went into doing so.
As crude as the Mustang's camo looked, all of the hard plastic, foam, vinyl and ratchet straps were actually created and put in place by a specific design team. The whole idea was to hide the car's identity, but it certainly ended up acting as a magnet for attention, too. According to Ford's press release, it took less than an hour for spy shots to appear online after the car was taken on public roads for the very first time - this is likely in reference to our first official spy shots of the Mustang from June, shown in the gallery below.
Scroll down for a press release and video, which shows footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang testing with minimal camouflage. This is probably the same track session where we got our first look at the Mustang's face back in August.
