1960 Ford Thunderbird Base Convertible 2-door 5.8l on 2040-cars
Issaquah, Washington, United States
Hello all,
Here is a fantastic opertunity to get into a classic thunderbird convertible before the prices skyrocket. As many of you know the square birds are gaining a bunch of momentum with collectors!
Anyway, this is a 60 convertible that I have wanted to get for a long time, but I'm in the middle of an Xke and an Mga so space and time have become an issue for me. This is a greT project car needing little to be a drive as you go type resto. She runs and drives, just drove her 20 miles yesterday. Motor pulls quite well for a big car. Has a exhaust leak and a little bit of lifter tap, but for an old car she runs pretty good. Tranny shifts well and firm. With throat being said, she has not been regularly used for awhile so fluid change, carb clean etc will do wonders. Suspension is a bit sloppy, and brakes are eh.
The body on this car is why I bought her. While so many are just rusted away this one is remarkably solid. Only minor issues. No holes through that I have seen. The underside of the car looks real nice as does the trunk pan. Rockers, quarters, doors etc are all pretty nice. Trunk lid is not aligned properly. She does need a respray at some point as the paint leaves something to be desired.
Interior is workable, just depends what your doing with the car. New dash cap will do wonders. Seats are just ok, as is everything else. I have a bunch of new interior in the aqua and white color. New dash, console, door panels etc. gauges, steering wheel and chrome that I have are fantastic and is a good step towards restoration and can be included for a cost. Just would need seat covers and carpet and interior would be beautiful. The previous owner said windows and seats were working and he was going to restore the system. Not sure what he did but they are not working now, either is the top. Some gauges work, some don't.
Windshield is cracked but I have a nice replacement. Extra bumpers, and tons of misc parts can be included. Overall this is a great cosmetic resto project on a rare car. I do have a buy it now but am afraid to put it up due to scammers, please only call if serious about the car. 425-802-8682. Title was lost so a signed notarized affidavit in leau of title is included(as good as a title). thanks for looking and ask any questions as I'm sure I for got stuff.

Ford acquires Livio to bolster connectivity biz
Thu, 26 Sep 2013Ford Motor Company has announced the acquisition of Livio, a Ferndale, MI-based software development company best known for aftermarket in-car connectivity devices, but also as a supplier of technology for proprietary systems for automakers. Livio, co-founded by Sigal and Massimo Baldini, will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Ford Global Technologies.
"With the additional expertise Livio provides us, Ford intends to continue to lead the next generation of in-car connectivity with technology advancements that give consumers more options to access their devices on the go," said Paul Mascarenas, chief technical officer and vice president, Ford Research and Innovation, in a statement.
Ford is clearly trying to beef up its in-house tech capability around telematics and device connectivity. While the Blue Oval has been a leader in these areas with SYNC and MyFord Touch in terms of getting the systems into as many cars as possible, the execution of the applications have been criticized for glitches.
Ford Australia pulls the ol' talking car prank
Mon, 07 Apr 2014Siri from Apple has proven that being able to talk to your technology doesn't always work perfectly. But what if it could eventually go far enough to give a personality to inanimate objects like our cars? Ford took just this path to comedic effect by playing a prank on many unsuspecting Australians, in a new commercial for its EcoSport compact crossover.
The Aussies seem very nonchalant about having a random parked car talk to them, and they seem surprisingly game when it asks them to get in, call a celebrity and tell a joke. (We're guessing there are some hilarious outtakes, too.) Scroll down to watch some folks from Down Under have a conversation with Ford's CUV.
