1962 ford thunderbird convertible. Very original, factory Rangoon Red and black interior car. Lived in California's dry climate it's entire life. It has been well up kept overall over the years, and very clean and original for its age. Still retains it's original black and yellow CA license plates issued in 1963! I bought this car from a nice older lady who's deceased husband had loved the car. T-bird was out of service prior to my ownership about 7 years.
I recently had its original 390 engine with 90k miles on it overhauled. It had some blow by, so I had it completely professionally rebuilt. Runs excellent, and engine is all correct down to the paint colors. Quality battery only 3 months old. I have not gone through transmission or brakes but, they are in working order. It has a cool set of chrome baby moon 15" rims that are presently on it. Tires have plenty of tread but, are old and should be replaced prior to any long distance or regular use (I have 4x stock Ford 14" steel wheels included, which I was intending on putting stock new whitewalls on). You have the choice. Original shop manual and original red fender skirts included also. Interior is nice and appears original. Not perfect but, I wouldn't change much. Still has thunderbird floor mats. I have new replacement dash in box included as original dash has 2 cracks. Power windows all work well. Gauges all work (not clock), heater works fine (I had heater core replaced $$$), fan sticks on intermittently, I will try and have it fixed but can't guarantee in time. Power top motor is bad (they are available now new), all other related electrics appear in good clean workable condition. Needs new soft top, bows etc all in good or better condition. It's all there. Very clean car! Paint looks to be the original (or a very old proper repaint). Nice presentable condition, some blemishes, chips, scratches but, too few to warrant any immediate repaint, you decide. I like a little patina myself! Chrome is very nice. No rust on this car! Honest solid vehicle. Clear California title in hand. Like with any antique or classic I recommend flat bedding/trailering any great length, until you are comfortable with the cars performance, it is a safer smarter bet. (it does need new set of tires anyway). I do not transport but I can assist on this end. Located in Hemet Ca., 92544. Priced to sell, don't play the waiting game, if you want it and can pay for it simply bid!. Buy it now offers will be considered. Dollar for dollar car for car this is the best deal around.

The history and future of the Ford Bronco
Tue, 17 Jun 2014
Some have suggested that the Bronco's demise was hastened by the fallout from the O.J. trial.
Twenty years ago today, ex-NFL linebacker Al "A.C." Cowlings drove his friend and onetime running back Orenthal James "O.J." Simpson on a parade lap of the Los Angeles highway system and onto an ignoble page of the history books. If you're in your late 20s or older, or a fastidious young student of 1990s American history, you're absolutely aware that Al and O.J.'s steed for the 'chase' was a white Ford Bronco. The white Ford Bronco, even.
Ford finds flex-fuel engine design plays big role in emissions output
Mon, Jan 6 2014How bad is ethanol for your engine? There's been a lot of debate on this issue as the US considers upping the biofuel content in the national gasoline supply from 10 percent (E10) to 15 percent (E15). The ethanol industry and some scientists say higher ethanol blends show no "meaningful differences" in new engines while the oil industry says ethanol creates health risks. Researchers working at the Ford Research and Innovation Center decided to take a closer look at how a wide range of gas-ethanol blends - E0, E10, E20, E30, E40, E55 and E80 - affected the emissions coming out of a flex-fuel 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis. To see the full report, printed in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, requires payment, but there is an abstract and Green Car Congress has some more details. The gist is that, "with increasing ethanol content in the fuel, the tailpipe emissions of ethanol, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, methane, and ammonia increased." At least NOx and NMHC emissions decreased. The researchers say that the effects are due to the fuel and "are expected for all FFVs," but that the way that a manufacturer calibrates the engine will affect NOx, THC, and NMOG emissions. It's this last bit that's important, since the researchers found, "Higher ethanol content in gasoline affects several fundamental fuel properties that can impact emissions. ... These changes can have positive or negative effects that can depend on engine design, hardware, and control strategy. In addition to direct emissions impacts, higher ethanol content fuel can also provide more efficient combustion and overall engine operation under part-load conditions and under knock-limited higher-load conditions." So, as we head towards more ethanol in our fuel supply (maybe), manufacturers are going to need to learn how to burn it most efficiently.
Ken Block's Gymkhana 8 to feature Dubai Police cars?
Tue, Feb 23 2016Yesterday we showed you the shiny Ford Fiesta that Ken Block will slide, spin, and hoon through the next Gymkhana video. In case the image above isn't clear, that video will drop at midnight EST on February 30th on the Ford Performance YouTube channel. We don't know all the entire premise of the video yet, but this Tweet from the man himself reveals that the video will be set in Dubai. Block is standing on the Fiesta we saw yesterday, and arrayed behind him are a handful of those famous Dubai Police cars you're probably familiar with. The force has a fleet of sportscars and supercars, and the purpose is outreach and goodwill among its citizenry, not necessarily the pursuit of criminals. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. From left to right, we can see a Maserati GranTurismo, Porsche 911, what looks to be a Nissan GT-R obscured by Block's Fiesta, a McLaren (likely a 650S), Ford Mustang, and a Ferrari 599 of some ilk. Will they take part? Maybe Block will try and run from what might be the most horsepower-intensive police fleet in the world. We'll have answers (and a few minutes of pure Block hooniganism) in a few days. Related Video:
