DESCRIPTION

In 1994, Ford produced 2,647 of the Thunderbird Super Coupe Model; this car is one of only 722 built with a manual transmission.  I bought the car new on April 7, 1994, it was the first car I bought with my own money and I have been the only owner of the car for the last 20 years. 

I have the original window sticker for the car, the FACTORY shop manuals and all maintenance records for any work that has ever been done to it.  Although it has almost 160,000 miles on it, this car still drives as well as it did when I bought it 20 years ago.

All of the scheduled maintenance has been performed as required.  No major components have had to be replaced although several upgrades and additions have been made as described in the Performance and Other Upgrades sections.  I also have all the original parts for anything that was upgraded (e.g. original main crank pulley, original stereo system).

There are some know issues with the car which I have described.  Most of these items are cosmetic in nature and are not completely unexpected for a car of this age.  Overall the interior is in great shape and would only need some minor reconditioning.  The exterior is in fair shape and a paint job would bring it back to showroom condition.

It is time for me to pass it along to another enthusiast who can enjoy all it has to offer.  I will be glad to answer any questions you may have about the vehicle.

Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor to get 365-hp EcoBoost option

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

Speeders beware, the police are going to be getting quite a bit faster. Ford has just announced that it will be offering its 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged, EcoBoost V6 in the Explorer Police Interceptor. The new engine will be joining the existing 3.7-liter V6. The 365-horsepower, 350-pound-foot mill should be familiar to consumers as the powerplant that's found in the Ford Taurus SHO (and its LEO equivalent, the Taurus Police Interceptor) and the Ford Explorer Sport. It should also provide quite a kick in the pants to officers used to the naturally aspirated 3.7 and its 304 ponies and 279 pound-feet of torque.
The move to the more potent powerplant was born out of all the equipment officers need to carry on a day-to-day basis. These days, there's so much stuff that police need on a regular basis, that there's a genuine market for a faster Police Interceptor Utility, as it's known officially. The Explorer-based cruiser has already accounted for 68 percent of Ford's LEO sales in 2013, and that's with just the 3.7, and we'd only expect that number to increase once the twin-turbo, 3.5-liter V6 is available. Ford won't offer up any indication of what the take rate will be on the new engine, but we're guessing it'll be fairly high.
The success of the Explorer PI couldn't have come at a better time for Ford. The decision to end Crown Victoria production was not a popular one with police, and combined with Chevrolet and Dodge diving into the LEO market feet first, Ford hasn't been performing as well as it's wanted to. The Explorer has been helping it turn around, though. And with the inclusion of the EcoBoost, Ford also has a legit competitor for the Chevrolet Tahoe on the big utility side of the police market.
