2002 Ford Thunderbird Convertible + Hard Top Ltd Edition Blue Absolute Creampuff on 2040-cars
Saddle River, New Jersey, United States
Just in time for summer, you are viewing an
absolute cream puff, one owner 2002 Thunderbird which has been treated like a
child in the family since the day I took possession of this beauty on October
25, 2001. This was one of the first new generation Thunderbirds to come
off the production line and the very first one delivered to the dealership in
Ridgewood, New Jersey (Ridgewood Ford, which is now out of business). I
had the car on order for over a year prior to delivery. The car has the
original Thunderbird Blue exterior color which was only produced for the first
year of production in 2002 and then discontinued, so it is highly desirable. The car still turns heads wherever it goes given its pristine condition. The interior is all black, including black leather seats and black
leather shifter. No cutesy two toned interior here. The cell phone photos attached couldn't possibly do this car justice. There is not a scratch, ding or ping on this car. I always parked it away from the crowd, like a true car nut. It's never been painted, or damaged in any way whatsoever, not even touch up paint. No smoking has ever occurred in the car. It has never seen snow and has been stored every day since delivery in a heated/dry garage. It has been meticulously maintained with oil changes every 3000 miles and any/all maintenance has been performed at my local high line mechanics over the years since I didn't even trust the dealership with their own brand. Despite the fact that this car has 60,655 miles on it (less than 5,000 miles a year on average), the car literally looks like it just came out of the showroom. Much of the mileage is highway miles. The interior of the car shows minimal wear with both seats in excellent condition. The car comes with all original equipment, including the matching Thunderbird Blue removable hard top which has never been used on the car after taking delivery, so it is absolutely perfect. It sits on the original stand ordered from Ford. It also has the original convertible top boot which has never been used, both original keys with alarm key-fobs, the original window sticker and receipt from the dealership which you will note the $6,000 over sticker paid for the privilege of being the first in Northern New Jersey to grace the roads with this jewel. It also comes with all the original books and papers, nothing was tossed or lost. Lastly, as an extra neat bonus, I have the two original Motor Trend Magazines from March, 1999 and October, 1999 with cover feature articles on the new Thunderbird, which will also be provided in the sale to add to the collectibility of this wonderful automobile. Tires and brakes are excellent. The Convertible top is in perfect condition. The A/C is like ice. The pick up, speed, shifting and handling of this car are all a pleasure, the perfect blend of speed, power and luxury car ride (Ford used the LIncoln LS frame and base for this car). It truly drives as good today as it did the first day I drove off the showroom floor. Even the original chrome wheels are gem mint with virtually no curb rash whatsoever. The only minor flaw is an ever so slight touch to one of the black protective bumpers around the license plate which cannot be noticed in the photos. If the model had not been totally discontinued by Ford in 2005, one would think this to be a brand new car without exception. There may be other
examples of 2002 Ford Thunderbirds on the market with less mileage, but there
is no doubt that you will not find one in better overall condition than this,
bar none. I welcome independent professional inspections of this vehicle by
prospective buyers. Motor Trend recently ranked this generation Ford Thunderbird as one of the ten most likely "future classic cars" because of its very small production run each year during its short 4 year lifespan as a model. Moving across country with no room to store an extra vehicle and my son is going to college, so someone is going to get lucky with this outstanding example of a future classic in just the right color and equipment. The winning bidder will be responsible for $1,000 deposit via paypal within 24 hours after purchase with the balance due in certified funds. I will assist in shipping if necessary, but buyer must arrange directly with shipper and pay shipper as well. The vehicle is available for inspection upon appointment in Northern New Jersey. |

Can an actual Ford F-150 ride on 4 Power Wheels F-150s?
Tue, Dec 9 2014A lot of kids are rough on their toys, especially when it comes to those made to be used outside, like a four-wheeled kid-size Power Wheels. Whether it's cruising through the sand box, carrying piles of rocks in the driveway or crashing around trees in the backyard, these motorized vehicles often take punishment from the moment the giftwrap comes off. The folks at Fisher-Price decided to give their latest F-150 Power Wheels a true torture test worse than any kid could have ever managed by setting a real 2015 Ford F-150 on top of four of them. Would the little toy trucks explode in a shower of plastic shards in a massive collapse, and if not, could they drive away afterwards? The latest F-150 might be 700 pounds lighter thanks to the switch to aluminum, but it's still a fullsize pickup. According to this clip, the truck weighs in at 4,120 pounds, which puts an average of 1,030 pounds on each of the toys. Check out the video above to see how the stunt goes, and click on the gallery below for some behind-the-scenes looks at the setup.
Lego provides one of the cheapest ways to own a Bugatti Chiron
Tue, Jan 3 2017Just over a month ago, we got a look at one of the latest Lego Speed Champions sets when Ford revealed the GT and GT40 kit. Now we get to see the rest of the lineup, and it's chock full of F1 and supercar goodness. The official Lego images show that the Bugatti Chiron, Mercedes-AMG GT3, Ferrari FXX K, and F1 cars from Ferrari and Mercedes all made the cut. Each set gets some unique features and most include interchangeable wheel covers. The Chiron comes with some tiny cones suitable for desk slaloms and the Mercedes-AMG GT3 gets an alternate nose. The FXX K comes has the most impressive selection of accessories, though, as it includes a dyno and engine run stand. The F1 sets are divided similarly, but with Mercedes getting more extras. The Brick Fan also reports that the Mercedes kit may be exclusive to select stores. The Ferrari kit only comes with a starting light, but the Mercedes set includes a garage, starting lights, and winner's circle. It'll be up to you whether you put Hamilton or Rosberg in that winner's circle. According to The Brick Fan, these kits are set for release in winter 2017. Since the Ford GT set has a release of March 1, we expect the rest will hit stores in the next couple of months. They're sure to be great additions to anyone's existing Lego garage.
