1966 Ford Thunderbird Convertible

For sale is a near perfect Ford Thunderbird with the 390 V8. This car was professionally restored a few years back and still shows like a fresh restoration. The paint is a beautiful brown/gold. This is the factory color on the car based on the colors underneath. The interior is a spectacular pearl white leather and shows as new. This car is a great car to drive with power steering and brakes. 

The exterior of this car is a 9 out of 10. There are some very minor stone chips under front and rear bumper edges. The body gaps are perfectly matched all the way around and the doors have no sag at all. There is NO RUST! The convertible top is very nice and a 8 out of 10. There is a tiny pinky nail sized tear on the driver's side. The motorized top operation works as it should with no issues. 

The interior shows like a new car. There are no tears or cracks anywhere and the metal work is fantastic. The carpets match the exterior paint color, which is a very nice touch. This car has pillow button leather seats, which look great.

Electronically, almost everything works as it should. It has a aftermarket digital radio that is designed to look and fit as a factory radio would. The neutral safety switch in the steering column is touchy at times and I would have it replaced eventually. The windshield washer motor comes on but no fluid comes out. All the exterior lighting is working properly. The rear seat window switch has a short and the windows go up and down sometimes.

Mechanically, this car is fantastic. It starts easily every time you turn the key. The car was sitting for about a year in an air conditioned facility and started right up. The carb does stick occasionally and will work itself out through driving the car. I would not hesitate to drive a very long distance with this car. The braking is excellent and has no fade, squeaking or vibrations. The tires are at 85% condition and look great with whitewalls. 

The new owner will receive a stack of receipts, books and workshop manuals with this car. It also has 3 sets of keys that come with it as well as a very high end indoor car cover. 

Please e-mail with any questions and I will answer accurately and quickly. Please only bid if you have the full intention of completing the purchase.

Shelby Baja 700 takes Ford F-150 SVT Raptor to the next level

Sun, Apr 12 2015

The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor can be called many things, but "underpowered" is not one of them. Still, that's never going to deter a company like Shelby from taking the off-road monster even further. Pictured here is the Baja 700, an even more extreme take on the Blue Oval's outgoing performance off-roader. The legendary Ford tuner has fitted it with a new supercharger, throttle body, injectors, heat exchanger and Borla exhaust, boosting output to over 700 horsepower. Of course Carroll's boys didn't stop there, thoroughly reworking the suspension with 3-inch King coilovers, bypass rear shocks, Rogue Racing upper and lower control arms and more, fitted to 18-inch matte black wheels with BFGoodrich K02 off-road rubber. Naturally, it's got the requisite graphics and badging to go with it all, along with a skid plate and a reworked interior by Katzkin and a three-gauge dashboard pod. Only 50 examples will be made, each priced at $45,000 – over and above the price of the base vehicle, which sells for about the same. So you're looking at a good $90k for this monster truck, before auxiliary lighting and other options are taken into account. Related Video:

Ford bondage ads reportedly trigger firings at Indian ad agency

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

You will probably remember the ads for the Ford Figo hatchback in India, the ones that showcased the extra large boot of the little hatchback by joking that you can fit three of your enemies in the trunk. One of the ads had Michael Schumacher in the front seat, obviously pleased about having Sebastian Vettel, Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso tied up in the back. But the other two had Paris Hilton and ex-Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi up front and three bound and gagged women in the back - in Hilton's case (shown above), it was the Kardashians.
This did not go over well, and Reuters reports that certain employees at JWT India have been fired over the matter. It is also reported that the images weren't actual advertisements, nor were they part of an actual campaign; JWT said they "were never intended for paid publication, were never requested by our Ford client." A JWT rep said the employees who created the ads did so on their own, Ford commented to Automotive News that the ads were "part of a creative exercise intended to test concepts for an advertising competition."
The problem, if the story is to be believed, is that the employees skipped the regular review protocols and uploaded their work to an ad industry site - they were found on Ads of the World. That page, like the employees, has been removed.

2014 Ford F-150 gets CNG option

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Ford is toiling away, installing heavy-duty engine components into select 3.7-liter V6s to allow them to run on compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquid petroleum gas (LPG) in addition to gasoline. That's nothing new, but now, Ford has announced that it will offer the 2014 F-150 with this engine configuration, bringing the Blue Oval's total number of CNG/LPG-friendly vehicles up to eight. The F-150 will be the only half-ton pickup on the market that can run on these gases.
Ford will charge $315 per vehicle to equip the optional engine, but the trucks won't be ready to run on the alternative fuels straight from the factory and must be upfitted with additional equipment. A Ford Qualified Vehicle Modifier will install a separate fuel system for the compressed gases at a cost of $7,500 to $9,500, depending on fuel tank size. With the right-size tank, the F-150 equipped with the CNG/LPG-prepped engine can go 750 miles on one tank of gas, according to Ford, averaging 23 miles per gallon.
The practice of offering flex-fuel vehicles is gaining momentum as businesses take advantage of cheap gas. CNG can be bought for $2.11/gallon on average (per gasoline equivalent), and sometimes for as little as $1.00 in some parts of the US, Ford states. "With the money saved using CNG, customers could start to see payback on their investment in as little as 24 to 36 months," says Jon Coleman, Ford's fleet sustainability and technology manager. The automaker expects to sell a total of 15,000 CNG/LPG-prepped vehicles in the 2014 model year.
