2002 Ford Thunderbird Blue Convertible Hard And Soft Tops W/rack, Dust Cover on 2040-cars
East Lansing, Michigan, United States
This award winner is a gorgeous Thunderbird Blue (same shade as the iconic Tiffany Blue) metallic finish, with sweet blue and black leather 2 tone interior. She has always been pampered, including indoor storage (usually heated), and maintained by the best professionals at or before all service intervals. She has chromed cast aluminum wheels and a removable hard top with historic, round, opera windows and racking system for hard top storage (pictured). The racking system can fold flat and travel in the trunk. Black cloth convertible top coordinates with sharp 2 tone blue and black leather interior and is in excellent supple condition. This car always gets multiple positive comments when I take her out. Additional items include boot cover and soft cloth dust cover (both pictured). Never smoked in. Great ride, as this car rests on a Lincoln chassis. Excellent condition. I've had it professionally detailed just for you, under the hood too! If you win this auction, the car will bring you many happy days.
This blue bird is almost perfect. However, there are a couple of minor flaws that I have pictured for you. On the steering wheel, there are a couple of nicks in the paint. On the metal trim panel on the inside of the drivers door, there are a few places where I have bumped it with either keys, my ring or the seat belt. And finally, on the middle of the top of the roof surface, for the hard top, I notice a scratch which must have happened during storage. The scratch is about 1" long. Because of the position of the scratch, it is difficult to notice it until you take the top off. This is pictured with the dime. |

Ford Explorer, Expedition next to go aluminum?
Sun, 13 Apr 2014Ford made some serious waves when it unveiled the latest F-150. Instead of making its bodywork out of steel, like just about every other truck on the market, Ford went with aluminum. And you can bet the F-150 won't be the last Ford model to go with the lightweight alloy construction, either.
Our compatriots at Edmunds report that Dearborn is considering replacing two of its most popular SUVs with aluminum versions. One candidate is the Expedition, which would make sense considering that the current model (like the two preceding generations and the fullsize Bronco before it) is based on the F-150's underpinnings. Another is the Explorer, which was traditionally based on the Ranger pickup but went with a car-like unibody chassis in its current iteration. If the Explorer does go the way of aluminum, don't expect it to be a part of its very next update, which is likely due too soon for such major changes.
It would stand to reason that, if the Expedition were to go aluminum, so would the next-generation Lincoln Navigator. Ditto the MKT together with the Explorer. But those aren't likely to be the only models in contention for aluminum construction. Like any other automaker, Ford is under pressure to steadily reduce its carbon emissions and improve its fuel economy figures, prompting it to look at a whole range of measures - including more efficient engines, lower rolling-resistance tires, active aerodynamics and lightweight construction. Expect aluminum to play a big part in that equation moving forward.
Project Ugly Horse: Part VI
Thu, 21 Mar 2013Solid axle? What solid axle?
I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation.
This should not have gone this easily. Having a long and checkered history of simple projects punctuated by much wailing and gnashing of knuckles, I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation when I finally decided to lay hands on the '89 Mustang with the goal of relieving the car of its stock rear axle. Instead, it took less than a full morning's worth of work to carve the old 7.5-inch solid axle from its moorings and mock up something, well, different.
BMW V8-powered Ford Model A is the definition of Hot Rod
Thu, 20 Jun 2013Today, hotrodding has a pretty staid definition. Take one classic American car, add one classic American V8, sprinkle with tire smoke and you pretty much have every hot rod to roll out of a shop in the last 40 years. Mike Borroughs knows it wasn't always this way. Once upon a time, getting your bucket to go faster meant grabbing whatever parts were lazing about the yard, bolting them together with a bit of ingenuity and laughing your way down the quarter mile. It's in that spirit that Burroughs built his 1928 Ford Model A.
Rather than turn to the tired flathead or the common Chevrolet small block, Burroughs plucked a 4.0-liter V8 from a 1995 BMW 7 Series. With 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, the engine has no trouble shuffling the old A around town. He had to build a custom chassis to get everything to cooperate, but the result is a 1,500-pound heathen that looks built to harass dry lake beds. You can check it out in the video below. Be warned, the soundtrack by Hanni el Khatib may not be safe for work - awesomeness of this caliber rarely is.
