You are bidding on a 1964 Thunderbird Convertible Roadster. I suspect this may be an original roadster. 1961 - 1963 depicted and identified the Roadster package. 1964 it was not. The reason I suspect it though is that this vehicle does not have power windows or air conditioning but does have the roadster cover and the Kelsey Hayes wire wheels (the wheels were the most expensive option for 1964). I believe whoever ordered the car originally opted for the Roadster package. I purchased this car 2 years ago. It is a South Carolina car. Previous owner had redone the engine and transmission. When I got it I added a brand new original Holley 4 barrel carb. I also added a Pertronix Distributor and EI. I went through the entire underside of the car. In the rear I added new leaf springs, shackles, bushings and shocks. In the front I added new coil springs, upper ball joints, lower ball joints, Control arm bushings, stabilizer bushings. Everything was taken off, sanded and painted before re-assembly. The steering column was also rebuilt with new bearings, dedent plate (was a problem with these cars) , Gear selector handle, indicator display, signal handle, signal wiring harness, steering damper. It has new fender indicator lights, a new chrome rear bumper, new tail light lenses, I converted the rear lights to digital sequential signals (sequential signals didn't come out until 1965). All the hard stuff is done! Has good driver quality paint but has some chips and scratches. It is a plum purple with purple top. Some things needed are fuel gauge does not work, horn does not work. One of the wire wheels has elongated holes due to lug nuts not being properly tightened. Tires have a lot of tread left but are old and not true. The foam in the front seats is old and needs replacing though the skins are good. Some new paint and tires would really finish the car off! Engine runs strong and brakes are good. Call with any questions. I'm in Connecticut. My cell is 203 233 5023 . Leave message and I'll call back. Prefer cash but may consider trade for 30's type street rod.

2015 Ford Mustang prototype spotted on the street

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

Our trusty spy photographers have snapped the first photos of the 2015 Ford Mustang prototype out on public streets. With nearly every square inch of the machine covered in heavy camouflage, it's difficult to discern details, but we can see smallish horizontal headlamps at work in the coupe's nose. Ford has made it clear that modern lighting technology will allow the company to get away from large, expensive headlamp arrays in the near future, and the 2015 Mustang may very well be the first of the automaker's products to bow with the new tech. The philosophy was first displayed on the very attractive Evos Concept.
The extensive cladding doesn't extend all the way to the prototype's rockers in the instance, giving us a look at the heavily-sculpted sills. Overall, this test car looks considerably smaller than the current generation Mustang, and elements like a short front overhang and beefy dual-piston calipers give us plenty of hope for the future model. Of course, reports that the 2015 Mustang will bow with an independent rear suspension and EcoBoost power certainly don't hurt our feelings, either.

Enterprise customer billed $47k for Mustang stolen from rental lot

Sun, 05 Jan 2014

A weekend rental of a Ford Mustang GT Convertible sounds like a nice, relaxing way to burn some gas, but one Nova Scotia woman's two-day rental is turning into a months-long headache. In early October, Kristen Cockerill picked up the Mustang from Enterprise Rent-A-Car, and she returned it the following day as stipulated by the rental contract. Unfortunately, she dropped the car off on a Sunday - a day on which the particular Enterprise office is closed - and the car ended up being stolen overnight.
Now, two months later, CBC reports that Cockerill received a bill from Enterprise for the full replacement of the car totaling $47,271 (a base 2014 Mustang GT Convertible currently costs $40,349 in Canada). As it turns out, the fine print in the contract says that the renter is responsible for cars dropped off after hours until it can be inspected the next business day - this is also reflected on the key drop seen in the news report video, which states "vehicles returned after hours are the responsibility of the renter until inspected on the next business day."
It's not clear how much, if any, of that amount Cockerhill will be responsible for once her insurance company gets involved, but if the insurance company refuses to pay, Enterprise will bill the amount to the credit card she provided during her rental. While this ordeal is far over for Cockerhill, it's a good reminder for the rest of us to always read the fine print.

RTR Spec 5 Concept shows off 2015 Ford Mustang's drifty potential

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Meet the Ford Mustang RTR Spec 5 Concept, a fully functional drift car that, according to our team in Sin City, has been doling out demo drifts in front of the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Destined to be the flagship of RTR's Tactical Performance Line, the Spec 5 Concept is, in addition to its 5.0-liter Aluminator V8 engine, chock full of performance parts that you can buy for your very own 2015 Mustang. In addition to the Ford Racing engine, the OEM parts supplier has lent the Spec 5 an aluminum radiator and a close-ratio six-speed transmission.
ASD Motorsports provided the front lower control arms, while the car itself rides on a fully customized coilover suspension. Magnaflow and American Racing have provided the exhaust system and headers, respectively. 20-inch HRE wheels, designed for RTR, are wrapped in sticky Nitto rubber.
