1987 Thunderbird Turbo Couple that was orginally owned by the son of the local Ford Dealer and purchased new and only changed hands in the last few years to a few different owners who have driven it summers only. The mileage on the odometer is not correct according to my inspection machine when I inspected the car last year. NYS is telling me the car has 80 some thousand and the odometer reads 190000. I am listing the car as a TMU (True Mileage Unknown). The owner subsequent to the dealer's son removed the body side moldings and cut the front bumper cover and painted the car metallic black. Frankly the paint job is horrible. The body is rust free from top to bottom. The tires are new, the brakes are new the car runs and drives like a dream and is extremely fast as it warms up I dectect a bit of an issue with the idle air control valve but nothing that would prevent it from being driven to your location.. The interior is complete and in very good condition with the exception of the driver door interior panel which has been removed and reinstalled by an amateur. Most of the parts are there but I would look of a new trim panel for the door. The window on the door works but is touchy and easily comes off the clamps on the regulator. If you help it up and down it can be opened and closed but will need to be repaired. Glass is all good, Original radio has been replaced. Right front fender is dented and can be repaired or replaced when the car is in paint. Retail on this car in good to excellent condition is about 6K. Deduct for the repaint and repair work, this car is still worth between 2 and 3 thousand. I am selling this for my customer at no reserved starting at $999. Please feel free to call me at the Garage (main line auto) 518-891-1011 with any questions you may have. Car can be driven home without problem. Clean NYS Title with no liens in hand.

Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue
Fri, 22 Feb 2013It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.
Ford Mustang to get four-cylinder in Europe, but not US
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Fans of the Ford Mustang SVO, which was produced from 1884 through 1986 with a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine and a manual transmission, may be interested to know that Ford is reportedly going to introduce something similar for 2015. But don't get too excited if you live in the US, as Edmunds reports that the vehicle will be offered in Europe only. Boo!
According to the report, Ford will put a version of its EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder into the engine bay of the Mustang. The engine would be enlarged from its current 2.0 liters to 2.3 liters, taking horsepower from 252 to around 300. The well-known 5.0 V8 engine will also be available in Europe.
"The Mustang is uniquely Ford and has a huge fan base here in Europe. Now those fans have something to look forward to and we look forward to providing more details in the near future," says Ford of Europe CEO Stephen Odell. That's great... but why not offer buyers in the States the (likely) fuel-efficient turbo option, too?
Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too
Fri, 07 Dec 2012We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.
