Up for auction is a 1994 Ford ThunderBird. The car is stock with one exception, under the hood is a 32 valve DOHC InTech 4.6 liter V8. The motor is similar to that of the Mustang Cobra of 2002 through 2004 with the exception of the supercharger. Also the Mercury Marauder has the DOHC engine as well. This motor was liberated from a 1995 Lincoln Mark VIII with only 65k miles on it. The swap was done 3 and a half years ago and after not quite a year of driving it was parked due to the lack of interest of my friend I helped do the swap.

The Good;

The car comes with an SCT Programmer loaded with a custom tune done by Lonnie Doll of Blue Oval Chips, Inc. It is not a radical tune, as the engine is stock, so it runs great on regular 89-octane fuel. All the engine wiring is stock with the exception of an added MSD Window Switch, which opens the additional 8 intake runners at 3000 RPM. The 3000-RPM “Pill” can be changed to any RPM you desire. The brakes are good with a recent brake flush and bleed. The transmission shifts good and firm. The radiator and thermostat is new with a strong stock electric fan and does not over heat. AC blows cold, though the compressor cycles on and off, I’m not sure if that is computer controlled or if the refrigerant is low. The interior is fair, the driver seat has separated stitching and splitting. The headliner, sunroof shade and sun visors have all been reupholstered. The project was sanded and put in primer for paint, which was never completed. The original color of the T-Bird was green, but the car has been “jammed” (doors, inner engine compartment and trunk in black) not very well though. Over all she is a good runner with lots of power.

The Bad;

I don’t think my friend ever took the car for an alignment after the engine swap (the motor comes out of the bottom, which entails unbolting some of the suspension alignment components). Also there is a pull when driving, so an alignment is in order. The exhaust is stock and there is a leak, it is small but noticeable. When my friend called on me to “save” the car, it had been sitting for almost 2 years in his workplace parking lot. The tires, though plenty of tread is on them, are all mismatched and dry rotted. He said he started the car regularly, but it has developed a transmission pan leak. There is some bodywork left to do. Crack in the windscreen. There is a dent on the driver side, beneath the rear window as well as a small ding in the hood. Other than that and a couple of nicks, the body is great! The rear spoiler did not come factory installed on this car, and is currently not mounted due to sanding and primer. Mounting holes are drilled, and I have the correct factory bolts for it. Ready for the color of your choice.

The Ugly;

…None really, just needs some love. It is a good car as it is, it's what Ford should have done for a Super Coupe. I have been truthful in my description and always honest on my auctions. If you have ANY question, please feel free to ask. Thanks, Skagg.

Sunday Drive: Still thankful for supercars

Sun, Nov 26 2017

The Thanksgiving holiday meant that last week was pretty short on stories, but apparently our readers are still thankful for supercars. The biggest news of the week was the new Aston Martin Vantage, which is clothed in a new look that Autoblog readers are still very much unsure of. It's a radical departure from past Aston Martin models, and while everyone seems to agree that the profile is lovely, the squinty headlamps are a particular source of contention. Its 503 horsepower and 512 pound-feet of torque cannot be argued with ... oh, and a V12 may be coming soon. Moving along is a nearly new 2006 Ford GT for sale that's expected to fetch around $300,000 at auction. It's so unused that it still has plastic wrap covering the leather interior. The Ango-American theme continues with the McLaren 720S, though not in road-going form. Still, renderings of the upcoming 720S GT3 racer round out this supercar-rich recap. As always, stay tuned to Autoblog for all the latest automotive news that's fit to print.

Consumer Reports explains its disdain for infotainment

Thu, 20 Mar 2014

One of the perks of reviewing all manner of cars and trucks is that we're exposed to all the different infotainment systems. Whether Cadillac's CUE, Chrysler's UConnect, BMW's iDrive or MyFord Touch, we sample each and every infotainment system on the market.
Not surprisingly, some are better than others. It seems consumers have come to a similar consensus, with Consumer Reports claiming that Ford and Lincoln, Cadillac and Honda offer the worst user infotainment experiences. Not surprisingly, you won't find much argument among the Autoblog staff.
Take a look below to see just what it is about the latest batch of infotainment systems that grinds CR's gears. After that, scroll down into Comments and let us know if you agree with the mag's views.

Ford recalls 422,000 SUVs for rear view camera display that may fail

Thu, May 18 2023

WASHINGTON — Ford is recalling 422,000 sport utility vehicles in the U.S. because the video output may fail, preventing the rear view camera image from displaying. The recall covers 2020 through 2023 Ford Explorer, Lincoln Aviator, and 2020-2022 Lincoln Corsair SUVs with a 360-degree camera. The recall expands and replaces prior Ford callbacks for the same issue in 2021 and 2023. Ford last year updated the image processing module (IPMB) software in an effort to address the issue. Ford said on Thursday it is "working together with suppliers to identify root cause and provide the correct remedy as quickly as possible". The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said the loss of the rear view camera image can reduce the driver's rear visibility, increasing the risk of a crash. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on June 26. Last year, Ford said it had reports of 17 minor crashes relating to the recall issue and more than 2,100 warranty reports but no reports of injuries. The NHTSA in August 2021 opened an investigation after Ford in 2020 recalled 620,246 vehicles for another rear camera issue. The investigation is reviewing if Ford had recalled the vehicles in a timely fashion and if it recalled enough vehicles. Recalls Ford Lincoln Crossover SUV
