Super Rare 1957 Thunderbird "E-Bird"!! Less than 4% of all the Birds that were made in 1957 had the 270 Horsepower dual carb
option. These were built to go head to head with the Corvette fuelie in Nascar speed week trials!! In fact they won there class! Beating Corvette!! This car was built to run! as evidenced by its 3-speed manual gearbox with overdrive and a 3.56 final ratio rear end. The car was painted back in the 70's although presentable this car is worthy of new paint, it has typical weathering of an aged paint job. The chrome is still nice, as well as the interior , convertible top and back window. The floors, frame, and trunk pan are all super solid without issues. It appears this car has remained inside for most of its life. The original spare is still in the trunk as shown in the pictures. The car fires up and sounds great. The interior is clean and appears to be original, and yes we have the original dash pad that is in remarkable shape!! The Trim tag Decodes As follows: E= 312 Cubic Inch 2-4V Carb 270 Horsepower 7= 1957 F= Dearborn Michigan Plant H= 55-57 T-Bird Color=F= Starmist Blue Trim=Xl=Pleated Dresden Vinyl/pleated Starmist vinyl 23D=Build Date= April 23rd Trans=3=3-speed Manual with overdrive Axle =2= 3.56 to 1 Rear Gear There is some evidence that the car may have been upgraded back in the day with a factory Isky camshaft and ported heads!

If you don't have the funds, or need to sell your car to buy this one Please look elsewhere. We welcome inspections in person and will try to answer your questions as best as we can. Thanks!! |

NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors
Wed, 22 Oct 2014
Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.
Mustang driver proves wheels are overrated
Mon, 21 Apr 2014We don't need to tell you that there's something missing in the image above. What we do need to tell you is that this is not a picture of a parked car stranded on the highway. This is, rather, just one frame from video of that three-wheeled Mustang traveling down the highway at highway-appropriate speed.
We don't know where you'd have to be nor how badly you'd have to be there to go shooting down the freeway in a car with three wheels, but if the New Daily News is correct, that place is somewhere in Texas. The video's short, but you'll have plenty of time to shake your head at it by just scrolling down.
Ford and Chrysler reducing summer plant shutdowns
Wed, 22 May 2013Most domestic automaker assembly plants traditionally take a couple of weeks off during the summer. The shutdowns give each plant time for much needed repairs and maintenance, and in some cases, help better align production with demand. Not this year, though, as demand for many models is outstripping what Ford, Chrysler and General Motors plants can produce.
Ford has announced that it will shorten its annual summer shutdown for most North American plants from two weeks to one. The shorter shutdown will increase the carmaker's annual North American production by 40,000 units on top of the 200,000 extra units that it was already planning to produce this year versus last. Automotive News reports that Ford produced 2.8 million vehicles on this continent in 2012, and that output this year has already increased 13 percent through April.
Chrysler, meanwhile, is also operating at full tilt and plans to run some plants through the summer with no shutdown at all. Those not getting a break include Jefferson North where the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango are assembled, Toledo North that will assemble the new Cherokee, and Conner Avenue, home of SRT Viper production. Other assembly plants will be down for a single week, while all of Chrysler's engine and transmission plants except one in Indiana will continue operating with no shutdown this summer.
