1966 Ford Thunderbird Landau Coupe. An original Q Code car with the 428 CI engine. I purchased this Thunderbird from the original owner. The car comes with the original "Build Sheet"and a complete history in repair receipts. The car came from the Ford Motor Company with the 428 4V engine and three speed automatic transmission. The original engine and transmission were recently (professionally) rebuilt. All the work done to the Thunderbird is supported by receipts which come with the car. From the sequential rear turn signals to the completely rebuilt front suspension, the car runs and drives very well. The front and rear bumpers are completely unscratched and are not dented. The car is ready to drive anywhere. I have a clear original Utah title and ownership can be easily transferred. Other than the "tangerine" repaint, the car is completely original. The original interior is in good condition, but shows some wear, but after 48 years it is in remarkable condition. The interior lights turn on when you open the doors and the swing-away steering wheel looks almost like new. Please look closely at all of the photos. I want the new owner to know exactly what they are getting. I have 680 positive feedbacks on Ebay and I highly value my 100% positive feedback score. If you have any questions about the car, I will gladly answer them. This is a wonderful Thunderbird that could easily be a show car with a new paint job in the original factory blue color. The original Landau top is in good conditions and the seams are not split. If there are areas of the car you want me to photograph in more detail, please let me know. The reserve on the car is well under the car's value. The power brakes, power steering, power windows, all work properly. All of the glass is in excellent condition. Two additional tires and rims are in the trunk.

I will assist the shipper you select and I will safely store the car until it is picked up. I will gladly assist the shipper selected in shipping the car anywhere in the world. Good luck bidding, and I hope this 1966 Thunderbird (Q Code) Landau Couple finds a good home. I have two 1956 Ford F100 projects you can seen in the background of the photos, and I need to sell this car before the Utah winter arrives. If you are new to Ebay, please message me before bidding. I want this to be a good straightforward auction.

Buyers ditching expensive European sedans to buy expensive American trucks

Mon, Feb 19 2018

The New York Times ended the automotive week with a story that adds numbers and context to a range of other stories, from the crossover craze to the increasing median price of a new car to ever more grandiose pickup trucks. The NYT piece reveals that the shift to larger vehicles isn't merely about the average U.S. buyer swapping the midsize sedan for a Ford Edge. Luxury buyers are migrating from plush sedans to plush SUVs and trucks that creep close to six-figure prices, and the Detroit Three are running Treasury presses because of it. From 2013 to 2017, the truck category — everything from pickups to minivans Â— climbed from 30 percent of the market to 41 percent. In January of this year, trucks claimed 66 percent of new vehicle sales. At the milk-and-honey end of profits, GMC alone accounted for 11.3 percent of all vehicle sales over $60,000, not just trucks. That puts the luxury truck maker behind Mercedes-Benz and Ford, The Blue Oval's feasting on Lariat, King Ranch and Raptor versions of the F-150, which make up more than half of that pickup's sales, putting it ahead of Chevrolet, Porsche and Lexus on the high-dollar sales list. The average transaction price of a GMC in Denali trim last year was $56,000; it's easy to see why, when one dealer told the NYT he just swapped a 2012 BMW 550i for a $71,000 GMC Sierra Denali. That truck starts at $52,900. The NYT started its story with a buyer who took home a Ford Raptor instead of an Audi A6, and optioned that $50,020 Ford Raptor close to $80,000. Over at Lincoln, the new $72,055 Navigator Â— the one so popular that Ford will increase production Â— crossed hands for an average sale price of $77,000 in January. And a Jeep dealer told the NYT that the two $93,000 Trackhawks he had on his lot "won't be here more than a few weeks." While trucks head up in sales volume and price, cars are headed so viciously in the opposite direction that "the Detroit Three and even some foreign manufacturers acknowledge they are now losing money on many of the cars they sell." So ... get ready for a lot more crossovers and trucks. Related Video: Find out what vehicle is right for you. Give our Car Finder tool a try.

FBI investigating recently fired Ford engineer for espionage

Fri, 25 Jul 2014

Agents of the FBI are investigating a potential case of industrial espionage involving a recently fired Ford employee. The Dearborn, MI-based manufacturer had its world headquarters searched by FBI agents on July 11, and according to The Detroit News, had warrants to seize recording devices handed over to Ford by Sharon Leach, a now-former Ford engineer.
Leach, who had spent 17 years with the Blue Oval, was fired last month, after Ford Security relieved her of eight Sansa listening devices. The FBI got involved shortly after her dismissal, searching her home on June 20 and seizing some two dozen items, including computers, jump drives and financial records, according to warrants obtained by The News.
Ford has remained quiet on the matter, with spokeswoman Susan Krusel confirming that the automaker was working with the FBI as part of a "joint investigation," while declining to provide any additional details.
