Location:

Available for addition to your Classic Ford Collection is a super low mileage 1975 Thunderbird in a very attractive red with black interior combo. 1975 was the 20th anniversary for the Thunderbird ! This Bird was brought from a Thunderbird enthusiast that had it in proper storage. This car has only 13,xxx miles on the all original and powerful (? !) 460ci engine and automatic transmission. The body wears 80+% of it's original paint. The hood was, from the best we can tell, the only thing that has been repainted due to being "egged" when the car was new. The passenger door skin is dented but has no paint cracking (looks like someone heavy leaned on door to close it and bowed the panel) . You may be able to push it out if the inside door trim panel is removed. The hood has some age cracking and clouding in it that is visible only upon close inspection. The second area of mention is a small chip the size of a pencil eraser on the top of the rear quarter panel just behind the drivers door. The beautiful example of a 1975 Thunderbird has been examined by a quallified automative service technician and is ready to drive anywhere. The Technician did suggest a set of plug wires due to them being the OE 1975 factory wires (still numbered) but we hated to change anything that was not a must on such a low mileage example. All fluids have been changed and the carburetor has been rebuilt. A new set of tires were installed due to age. Power windows, Door Locks, Cruise, and all work as designed as well as all other accessories. The Air Cond. worked great when put in storage, but may need to be top'd off this spring. Bid now to own this Rare low mile example of old American iron. Please contact for additional information needed.

Ford forced to recall Escape over fire risk yet again

Tue, 26 Nov 2013

Recalls happen. Automakers hope they won't, but they do. And that's alright, for the most part, because cars are designed (and to a large degree still made) by humans, and humans make mistakes. So we forgive them, as long as the problem is resolved. Only in the case of the Ford Escape, the problem seems to keep coming back.
That's why Ford is calling in the Escape yet again due to fire concerns. The issue revolves around problematic fuel lines in 9,469 units manufactured between October 5, 2011, and July 11, 2012, all of which use the 1.6-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engine.
As you yourself may recall, the Escape was subject to a string of recalls last year that resulted in a $17 million fine. One of them was over this very same issue, which Ford apparently didn't rectify the first time around. Let's hope this time is the last time.

Rolling footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang hits YouTube [w/video]

Thu, 26 Dec 2013

Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal. There are no burnouts, no donuts, no revving, and thankfully, no music. It's just two minutes and 26 seconds of the new pony car running free in the desert.
So in case you needed more visualizing help, the video below will help you start imagining how you'll look in your 2014 Christmas present to yourself...

Watch this lead sled go rallying in Finland

Thu, 19 Jun 2014

Custom cars generally fit into neat little boxes in terms of how they are used. For example, you're unlikely to see a modded Corvette going rock crawling; it's just not what it's made for (though we bet it'd look awesome, for a minute). In the same way, chopped, channeled and customized '50s hot rods aren't really meant to go racing. They look great and go fast, but they are generally more cruisers than sports cars.
However, if this video is any indication, the people of Finland don't adhere in these stereotypes, because this rodder is happy to play in the dirt with his lead sled.
According to the video, the driver is a member of the Ford-Freak Club of Finland, and he clearly knows how to have some fun. Possibly inspired by his country's great rally drivers, he gets the tail way out going around this gently curving gravel track. The stunt is somewhat reminiscent of the stock cars races on the sand at Daytona Beach, and this is probably close to what it sounded like too. Scroll down to watch a very cool Finn getting his hot rod a little dirty.
