1988 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe 2.3L Turbo Automatic transmission 155,000 miles ON BODY


Car is in good shape has a lot of new parts! The car was painted by the previous owner but has one spot that is flaking off alittle. I have had the car for a couple years now and it was my daily driver until I got a new car and I had to put an engine in the car due to blowing the head gasket on the original motor. I hate to get rid of it but we need the space in the driveway. Car features power locks, power drivers seat, power windows, power mirrors, fuel selector switch, factory fog lamps, 4 wheel disc brakes with ABS, cold A/C and heats works GREAT(automatic adjusting climate control), interior is in great shape, etc. This car has alot of power and is very fun to drive! NEW PARTS INCLUDE: It has a new fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, alternator, Motorcraft plugs, wires, cap, rotor, performance rear tubular upper control arms, fairly new tires, MSD coil, rebuilt turbo and manifold, 3 inch downpipe with dual exhaust, dash mat, Optima battery, strut conversion to non-electronic and new rear shocks. Just put a used motor in it that was out of a 90,000 mile car but the engine had been replaced with a reman so it has less than 90k on it. Transmission was rebuilt about 10,000 miles ago with a new torque converter. The car runs good but intermittently hesitates and unfortunately I don't have time to look into it. I think it may possibly be either a vacuum leak or the pickup in the distributor..... I crank it up and drive it around the neighborhood periodically but like I mentioned I am on the road 5 days a week so I just don't have the time to work on the car like I wish I did. This is a nice car that just needs a little TLC! When I drove it daily before I put the new engine in it was getting 25-27 MPG!!! I have around $4000 invested in the car so my loss is your gain. Please feel free to message me with any questions and happy bidding! Car is located in Tega Cay, SC just 10 mintues from Charlotte, NC...would not recommend trying to drive it home. Car is AS-IS and needs to be picked up within 7 days of auction ending. I WILL ADD INTERIOR PICTURES TOMORROW!

Made in America | These cars top the most-American list

Mon, Dec 5 2022

The car with the most American/Canadian content for 2022 is ... cue the drumroll ... the Lincoln Corsair, in both standard gasoline-fueled and plug-in hybrid guise. Both versions of Lincoln's compact luxury crossover earned a score of 86 — due to 72% of its parts coming from one of the two aforementioned countries — in the American University Kogod Business School's annual "Made in America Auto Index." Last year's leader, the 2021 Ford Mustang GT (when equipped with a manual transmission) fell all the way to 22nd place with a 50% rating due to a switch in transmissions sourced from Mexico. In case you're interested, that puts Ford's red-blooded American ponycar below vehicles like the Kia Sorento, Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class SUV and Lexus ES. If you're wondering how an American car that's assembled within the borders of the United States could rank below a model from a Korean, German or Japanese automaker, well, we'll let Kogod explain: "The components of the index are based on research performed by the Center for Automotive Research in Ann Arbor Michigan regarding the economic value of different components of auto manufacturing. For example, the highest ranked cars are made by U.S.-based manufacturers using American engines and transmissions, and with a high AALA percentage of U.S. and Canadian parts." There are 25 total vehicles listed in the Top 10 (there are lots of ties this year). Here's the full list: (1) Lincoln Corsair: 86 (1) Lincoln Corsair PHEV: 86 (2) Tesla Model 3 Long Range: 82.5 (3) Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray: 81 (4) Chevrolet Colorado: 80.5 (5) Jeep Cherokee Latitude 4x4: 80 (5) Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk: 80 (5) Tesla Model 3 Performance: 80 (5) Tesla Model Y: 80 (6) Dodge Durango Citadel: 79.5 (6) Dodge Durango Blacktop AWD: 79.5 (7) Honda Passport Trailsport: 78.5 (8) Ford F-150 2.7L, 3.3L, 5.0L: 77.5 (8) Ford Ranger: 77.5 (8) Ford Bronco automatic: 77.5 (8) Tesla Model S: 77.5 (8) Tesla Model X: 77.5 (9) Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 3.6L: 77 (9) Jeep Grand Cherokee L LTD: 77 (9) Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 3.6L: 77 (9) Chevrolet Camaro automatic: 77 (10) Honda Odyssey: 76 (10) Honda Ridgeline: 76 (10) Honda Pilot: 76 There's a whole long list of reasons for the above scores, with seven criteria that include factory location, headquarters location and where its various bits and pieces come from.

Kawei K1 pickup blatantly copies Ford F-150

Thu, Apr 24 2014

The Chinese auto industry used to be looked at as a joke full of products blatantly copied from foreign vehicles. However, companies like Qoros and others show that the country's automakers have taken big steps in terms of original design. It doesn't look like every automaker there is ready to put down the tracing paper yet, though. Case in point: The Kawei K1 pickup pictured above, which is an obvious rip-off of the Ford F-150. In fact, the company isn't even hiding it. Kawei deserves a little credit for its openness. In describing the new model, it says: "No matter the black net grille and the outline of the headlamp, even if the styles of fog lamp and engine cover, it looks the same as Ford Raptor." It also admits that spelling out the model name on the hood is inspired by Land Rover. It's available with either a 2.4-liter, gasoline-fueled four-cylinder producing 141 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque (elsewhere it also lists it as having 162 lb-ft) or a 3.2-liter six-cylinder diesel with 106 hp and 181 lb-ft. Regardless of engine, power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual gearbox. The trucks cost around 100,000 Yuan ($16,033). So at least the K1 is a reasonably priced knockoff. According to Car News China, the K1 is actually selling in small numbers. The company made 10,000 of them last year and even exported some to Africa and the Middle East. Kawei's factory is doubling in capacity this year to build even more. You can read more about the truck on the company's website in some very mangled English.
