Up for sale is my 1986 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe. Was a Texas car originally from Illinois. Its 90% original no rust or any accidents ever. Everything works great on the car its ready to drive anywhere. It does great on the highway still has plenty of power and it is good on gas on the highway easily 25+ mpg. It rides really smooth much nicer than any other fox I have ever been in (although I heard the Elan t-bird was even nicer). The upgrades are off 87-88 T-bird but are stock parts the hood, intercooler, VAM, LA3 computer. The only things not factory are full exhaust header too (will pass emission) rims and it does have a one wire alternator it needed more power the factory one was really weak. The only thing this car could use is small wheel spacers on the front rubs in reverse and only if its fully turned. Other than that it dont leak or need brakes or a tune up or a battery the tires may have 2000 miles on them. The way I see it insurance is cheep its a classic the value will keep goin up. A new car has expensive insurance plates it looses value every year. Plus its different it stands out you dont see many of these and its a shame cause with just some wheels they can be very good lookin. If I cant sell it its prolly getting raped by a coyote but Id like to go to a collector or someone who appreciates its originality. Well if you have any questions message me or give me a text or call 765-977-0091. If I cant answer just leave a message. Thanks for lookin.

2013 Shelby 1000 unleashes its 1,200 horsepower ahead of NY show reveal

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

True story: Last fall, I had the opportunity to spend a week with Ford's new 2013 Shelby GT500 - the Blue Oval's factory Mustang with 662 horsepower and 631 pound-feet of torque. It's an amazing beast, to be sure. I'm not sure if it was Michigan's damp streets strewn with potholes and wet leaves, but at no point did I ever say to myself, "You know, Ford is on to a really good thing here, but what it really needs is about twice the power." And yet, for people in warmer climes with infrastructure in better nick - or for those whose muscle cars live their lives out on the track, there's apparently sufficient demand to warrant just such a beast.
Quick studies will recall that Shelby American launched its 1000 last year to commemorate its 50th anniversary, but it is returning to the New York Auto Show with a fresh version based on the 2013 GT500 I drove. The 2013 Shelby 1000 whips up 1,200 horsepower on pump gas thanks to beefed-up forced induction, engine internals and cooling. Wisely, it also incorporates an adjustable suspension and big brake package to make sure those ponies have the best chance being safely deployed to the ground.
What price the world's most powerful "production" muscle car? $154,995 for starters - donor GT500 not included. What, no convertible variant?

70% of pickups could use aluminum by 2025

Wed, 11 Jun 2014

In the next decade, the auto industry will see an explosion in its use of aluminum to cut weight and increase fuel economy, according to a study from market analysts Ducker Worldwide cited by The Detroit News. We are already seeing the lightweight metal show up extensively in luxury models from Europe, but with the impending launch of aluminum-intensive 2015 Ford F-150 (pictured above), North America is using it even more, as well. The report predicts 70 percent of US pickups to have aluminum bodies by 2025.
It won't just be pickups that see the benefit, though. The average amount of aluminum in US vehicles is forecasted by the study to grow from an average of 350 pounds in 2013 to about 550 pounds by 2025. The most common parts to use it will be hoods, doors and - to some extent - roofs, as well.
The massive increase in pickups' aluminum content hardly seems surprising. The F-150 is predicted to use so much that it might cause a short-term shortage, according to one earlier report. At the same time General Motors is heavily rumored to be negotiating with suppliers for the next generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. Ram is the last holdout of the Big Three, but the study predicts that not to last.
