I am the second owner. The original owners (Mother & Son) had this car from 1966 to 2013. The son is now retired and preparing for a move to Colorado. He already has two projects going with him, so mom's car had to go. He had the car on non-operation with the DMV from 2003 until 2013 when I registered it. He had been restoring it from the bottom up for 10 years. This is what has been done to the car by the previous owner. Rebuilt Engine and Carburetor. It is the "Z" code 390 high compression engine. Re-painted engine compartment while the engine was out. The Choke works and it runs beautifully. Rebuilt C-6 transmission. THIS IS ONE OF THE FIRST TO RECEIVE THE NEW C-6 TRANSMISSIONS. They changed to the new trans. in November of 1965 and this car's production date is 11-23-1965. It starts and drives fantastic! I recently did an oil & transmission filter change. The underneath looks flawless. All bushings, tie rods, grease fittings are in perfect shape. He was prepping for paint so you either see the original Blue paint, brown primer or Metal. There are only three dings in the body and 3 small spots where body repairs were done in the past. I have 99% of all inside and outside moldings, trim, lights, etc. The only thing missing is the antenna (base is there) and the side moldings (although most Thunderbirds do not have these). If you want the link let me know ebay does not allow links. They were $283 when I checked on 1-24-14. Brakes are all in excellent shape and the car stops straight. What is left is the Cab and paint. The gauges all work, the radio comes on, but with no real antenna I am not sure if it will get any stations. The sequential turn signals work. I was able to get all the windows to work. All vacuum lines to the cab have been disconnected while I was fine tuning the motor. I wanted to make sure the engine has no vacuum leaks. Interior needs a headliner and front seat needs to be re-done. The dash has cracks and the tops of the door panels have some cracking. Since he had the car sitting for 10 years I went ahead and replaced the following – cap, rotor, spark plug wires, spark plugs, antifreeze, oil and filter, trans. filter. There is a $500 non-refundable deposit due within 48 hours of auction. Please ask any and all questions, I have a lot more pics of the car so if you need something specific let me know and include your email. Car will be listed locally so I reserve the right to end auction early. Thanks for looking & Good luck

Thu, 14 Nov 2013

Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).

These Canadians somehow forgot how to drive in snow

Tue, Dec 6 2016

Montreal drivers experienced a slow-motion pileup on their streets this weeks thanks to the first snow fall of the season. According to the CBC, slippery conditions caused a small pileup involving cars, buses and even a street clearing vehicle. Onlookers in neighboring office buildings watched as vehicle after vehicle slid down Cote du Beaver Hall and crashed into the scrum of waiting cars. First there was a city bus, then a white Ford F-150 work truck loaded down with ladders, then another city bus came along and sandwiched the poor F-150. A Montreal Police Charger then came down the hill backwards, hit the bus in a slow, sad crash before it was crashed into by an out of control plow truck. Since its posting yesterday, the video of the crash has gone viral. Various other vehicles–a green-topped Scion delivery truck and a couple workaday sedansÂ–were lucky enough to escape the pileup, but still suffered through a white-knuckled slippery descent down the hill. Colin Creado, who works nearby the crash site, told the CBC although it was pretty slippery, he was surprised at all the carnage since the storm was forecast well in advance. "You would have thought ... they would have salted the area or at least cordoned it off, because that road is pretty steep," he told the station.
