1957 Ford Thunderbird (2 Tops)


 This is a very clean and presentable car that is very solid and  mechanically sound. The exterior is Starmist blue with white interior. It is a great color combination and shows well.This Bird has a 312 cid engine with a 4bbl carb, Automatic transmission, power steering, front disc brake upgrade with dual reservoir master cylinder for safety, engine dress up kit, heavy duty battery option, heater & defrost, wipers & washers, telescopic steering wheel, town & country radio that works, seat with embossed logo, seat belts, and back up lights. You can jump in and drive this Bird any where. It is ready to go, looks great, drives great, and has just been serviced.

This Bird has a white soft top in new condition with new weather stripping, the top frame looks to be freshly done as well. The top though new, has a tear on each side where some one didn't put it down properly and tore it. It is patched with white duct tape (see pic) and is still a good top. The hard top is white as well and has the port hole option. It has had a fresh engine bay detail and all of the belts, hoses, spark plugs & wires, distributor cap, coolant, oil & filter, fuel filter, power steering fluid, radiator hoses & clamps, heater hoses & clamps, brand new Interstate battery, new shocks, and air cleaner are all new. The trunk bay is very clean as well. It has the original jack assembly and has the  jacking instructions on the bottom side of the trunk lid. The car has 5 new Dayton wide white wall radial tires.The trunk pan is original to the car with no patch work. I pulled the trunk liner to inspect and photographed it. The floor pans, inner rockers, and body braces appear to be original and solid as well. The front and rear bumpers have been rechromed and look very nice, the rest of the bright work is nice as well. The hard top has the rear lower stainless moulding damaged a bit from sitting the top on it while storing it. All of the glass has the Ford logo etched in it as per original glass. The car runs and drives out wonderfully and will not need any thing for a long time. The money has already been spent on all the service and detail work. Spring time will be just around the corner and cruise nights and shows will be back in full swing again before you know it.

 Please come inspect it and take it for a test drive. I am in Wentzville, Mo. just 35 miles west of St. Louis on I-70. I also have a 1964 Thunderbird convertible with wire wheels and tonneau cover and a 1966 Thunderbird convertible with tonnaue cover. The 66 is listed now and the 64 will be listed this weekend. Please follow my auctions for upcoming cars. Also check out Vintage Autohaus and Imports inventory at vaitx.com as well.

Ford dominates most-stolen SUV list

Tue, 17 Jun 2014



The Ford Escape leads the NICB's list with 1,421 examples stolen.
If you drive a recent Ford SUV or crossover, you may want to keep a watchful eye out for thieves - especially if you live in the New York metro area or in Detroit. A new study from the National Insurance Crime Bureau has named three Ford models as the most likely vehicles in their genre to be stolen, with CUVs in general being especially attractive to bandits.

2018 Ford F-150 Powerstroke vs. 2018 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel: comparing the specs

Mon, Jan 8 2018

Now that Ford has finally released specifications for its diesel Ford F-150, we can finally see how it stacks up against its sole competition, the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel. Naturally, since we haven't driven the new diesel F-150, we can't tell you which is better on the road, but there are interesting things we can glean from the numbers. Compare these and other potential new vehicle purchases using our tool. For one thing, the two trucks are extremely similar from a powertrain perspective. Both trucks use a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 diesel, with the Ford using a 10-speed automatic, and the Ram using an 8-speed automatic. The Powerstroke engine is built in the U.K. but specifically tuned by Ford for American pickup truck duty. It is also is related to the diesel V6 used by Jaguar and Land Rover. The Ram 1500's engine is made by VM Motori. Only 10 horsepower and 20 pound-feet of torque separate the two, with the Ford getting the slight advantage. The Ford also produces its horsepower and torque slightly sooner than the Ram. Peak power in the Ford comes at 3,250 rpm compared to 3,600 rpm in the Ram, and peak torque arrives at 1,750 rpm in the Ford, and 2,000 rpm in the Ram. View 9 Photos More significant differences become apparent in the payload and towing area, both of which put the Ford at an advantage. The F-150 Powerstroke can carry 2,020 pounds of cargo, or tow 11,400 pounds. The Ram EcoDiesel, depending on configuration, can carry 1,100 to 1,600 pounds of cargo, and tow between 7,560 and 9,210 pounds. Fuel economy might go to the Ford if it hits the company's target of 30 mpg highway. That would beat the Ram's 27 mpg highway. We don't know what Ford's target city mpg is, but the Ram manages 20 in town with two-wheel drive. Four-wheel drive drops the city rating to 19 mpg. View 6 Photos The biggest decider between the trucks might be cost. Ford is only offering its diesel engine on higher end trims, which means that the cheapest diesel F-150 starts at $46,315. That's for a two-wheel drive Lariat extended cab with a 6.5-foot bed. Ram on the other hand, offers the diesel in everything from its ultra-bare-bones Tradesman pickup, allowing for a base price of just $28,585, up to the fancy Laramie Longhorn and Limited trims. Ram's diesel is also available with all cab variants, while Ford's is only offered in extended- and double-cab body styles.

Ford recalling 450,000 Fusion, Mercury Milan sedans

Tue, Nov 24 2015

Ford has announced a pair of recalls, and both are critical safety issues. The exponentially larger of the two recall campaigns affects over 450,000 Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan sedans manufactured at the Hermosillo plant between July 21, 2008, and March 4, 2011. The canister purge valve in the fuel tank could malfunction and could cause the top of the tank to crack and leak fuel. That could cause a fire, although Ford "is not aware of any accidents, injuries or fires" resulting from the issue. Affected vehicles will have their ECU software updated and their fuel tanks inspected for potential replacement. The company estimates there are 411,205 affected units in the United States (and its federalized territories), plus another 33,605 in Canada, and 7,055 in Mexico. The second recall affects 13 F-650 trucks. The column shifter's park position mechanism may fracture and let the truck roll away unexpectedly. Those 2016 models built in Ohio between July 29 and September 3, 2015 are all located in the US. Fixing the problem will require replacing the steering column and reconfiguring the instrument panel. FORD ISSUES TWO SAFETY RECALLS IN NORTH AMERICA DEARBORN, Mich., Nov. 23, 2015 – Ford Motor Company is issuing two safety recalls in North America. Ford is not aware of any accidents, injuries or fires related to these conditions. Details are as follows: Ford issues safety recall for certain 2010-2011 Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles in North America for potential fuel tank issue Ford Motor Company is issuing a safety recall for approximately 450,000 2010-2011 Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles for a potential issue with the fuel tank. Some of these vehicles might have a canister purge valve that does not work properly, causing internal pressure changes inside the fuel tank. Repeated pressure changes inside the tank could result in a crack on the top of the tank, possibly allowing fuel to leak. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can lead to a fire. Ford is not aware of any accidents, injuries or fires related to this condition. Affected vehicles include certain 2010-2011 Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles built at Hermosillo Assembly Plant from July 21, 2008 through March 4, 2011. There are a total of approximately 451,865 vehicles that might be affected in North America, including 411,205 vehicles in the United States and federalized territories, 33,605 in Canada and 7,055 in Mexico.
