WOW ! WOW ! & WOW AGAIN !!!
Check out this " truly wonderfull" car. So many times you will see a car advertized as "low mileage" , "survivor", or other buzz words
describing it. But more times than not, it turns out to be a car that although it may have low miles etc., A lot of restoration is needed
or was done before the car could live up to the description given in the ad. Sometimes, it's just a lie !.
NOT HERE!. Let me tell you about this car. This was a one owner car from the time it was new until the owner passed away and
i purchased it from the family just about two years ago. I was told that the car was garage kept since new and never exposed to bad weather
and i believe it!. You will too when you see it in person. It is a rust and corrosion free automobile !.
It is "COMPLETELY" original .) and it is in just about as close to " original new" condition as i could imagine a car to
be !. It has 32700 documented miles on it Great service records along with the original bill of sale and " protecto- plate."
It's really quite amazing .When you look at things like the carpet, the headliner, the fabric on the seats, etc.
you can't help but wonder how someone was able to maintain a car in this condition for so many years.
Here are some details.
_____________________________EXTERIOR_______________________________________________________________
As i hope you can see in the photos, the body on the car is as straight as an arrow. the dark blue paint is clear&bright with
only a " very few", very minor", surface scratches hardly worth noting but i don't want to leave anything out.
The chrome bumpers as well as the the grill and all the exterior bright work including the wheel covers are like new Even the rubber
bumper guards are in great shape.
There is however , a very small dent in the aluminum fender trim on the rear passenger side. I think that it rubbed something in the garage.
It is very insugnifficant. The White vinyl top is perfect condition. All of the glass is in great condition including the windshield, side and rear
glass and side mirror glass. The headlights,taillights, parking lights, emblems, etc. are all in perfect condition. Open the door s and check
out the sill plates and hinges as well as the paint etc.
____________________________INTERIOR_______________________________________________________________
You know the old saying "a picture is worth a thousand words" ? well take a very close look a the photos of the interior.
and remember "It's all original !". The headliner looks like it's a day old. The seat covers don't show any wear and when
you sit down on them, you feel like you are in a new car. a new car. The carpet looks like no one ever stepped on it. The arm
rests are in perfect condition as are the door panels. All the interior brightwork ( door handles, trim, etc.) is like new.
The dash is the same ( like new). All of the guages work. The dash glass is clear & bright but as you may expect, the clock doesn't
work !. I wonder why the clocks never seem to work in older cars.?.
_______________________________MECHANICAL________________________________________________________-
The 351M/400 motor runs perfectly and even gets good gas mileage. The car is equipped with power steering that steers effortlessly.
power brakes that stop on a dime and an automatic transmisson that shifts smoothly and doesn't leak. It even has air conditioning
that blows "ice cold". The tires are brand new. The original radio still works and there are remote control right & left side exterior mirrors .
The car sits straight and level on the tight and solid suspension. No rust under the car. The exhaust system is good.
The front end, brakes, steering and electrical system are all good. No problems anywhere !!!.
The car has been "Zebart" and" Hercules" rust proof protected from new".
________________________-OVERVIEW____________________________________________________________________-
The 1978 Thunderbird was known as "the baby Lincoln" or " Fords luxury sports car". It has the sporty look along with
comfort of a luxury car. You can drive this car anywhere from a cross country trip to a local car show. Don't be surprised if
you pick up a trophy or two. Whether you are a seasoned car collector, a first time buyer of a vintage car, or maybe you're just a
Tbird fan, This is a really nice car that you will be proud to own and show off.
Here's wishing you good luck with your bidding !.

Watch Ford build a Mustang atop Burj Khalifa, world's tallest building
Sun, Nov 23 2014In 1965, a Ford Mustang Convertible proudly went on display at the top of the Empire State Building, the world's tallest building at the time. Earlier this year, the Blue Oval recreated the stunt by bringing the latest droptop 'Stang to the sky-high structure. Unfortunately, while still iconic, the New York skyscraper has lost the world title. Of course, an automaker can't let something like that get in the way of a good publicity stunt. For the inauguration of the Ford business unit in the Middle East and Africa, the brand gave the 2015 Mustang Convertible an even bigger building to climb – the biggest in fact. The droptop made its way to the 112th floor of the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building. To put a final topper on the whole event, executive chairman Bill Ford was the one to place the car's famous badge, making it complete. Like with the Empire State Building spectacle, getting the Mustang to the top wasn't as simple as just driving it off the elevator. Check out the video above to see how it was done, and scroll down to read Ford's press release about the event. NEW MUSTANG UNVEILED ON WORLD'S TALLEST BUILDING, BURJ KHALIFA Bill Ford helps inaugurate Ford's latest business unit, Middle East and Africa, an exciting, vibrant region that represents the final frontier for growth in the auto industry Ford pledged to launch 25 vehicles in region by 2016, including the all-new Mustang debuting next year Industry sales in Middle East & Africa are expected to grow 40 per cent to 5.5 million vehicles by 2020 Dubai, U.A.E., Nov. 20, 2014 – Ford Motor Company underscored its growing ambitions in the Middle East and Africa, with the dramatic introduction of the all-new Mustang on Dubai's Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building. Ford Executive Chairman Bill Ford capped the live-action event by delivering the iconic pony badge to the 2015 yellow Mustang on the 112th floor of the skyscraper. The event was viewed live around the world on YouTube as well as by approximately 10,000 fans gathered in the Dubai Downtown area, overlooking the Dubai Fountain and Burj Khalifa. (To see a replay, click on this link.) "Today we planted the Ford flag in the Middle East & Africa, an exciting, vibrant region that represents the final frontier for growth in the auto industry," Bill Ford said.
Ford Recalls Nearly 700,000 Vehicles
Fri, May 9 2014Ford is recalling more than 692,000 Escape small SUVs and C-Max gas-electric hybrids in North America to fix two safety problems. The recalls cover vehicles from the 2013 and 2014 model years. Most of the Escapes have both problems. The first case covers 692,500 Escape and C-Max vehicles. A software glitch can stop the side curtain air bags from inflating in certain types of rollover crashes. The company says it has no reports of crashes or injuries. Dealers will reprogram the air bag control computer for free. About 65,000 of the recalled vehicles are C-Max models, and the rest are Escapes. Roughly 591,000 are in the U.S., with 3,500 more in U.S. territories. About 78,000 are in Canada and another 19,500 are in Mexico, Fordspokeswoman Kelli Felker said in an e-mail. There could be more vehicles affected in other markets, the company said. The affected Escapes were built from Oct. 5, 2011 through Feb. 14, 2014. The C-Max vehicles were built from Jan. 19, 2012, through Feb. 24, 2014. The second case covers about 692,700 Escapes. Exterior door handles can bind and stop the door from latching properly. This could allow doors to open while the SUVs are in motion. Dealers will inspect the handles and reposition them if needed. No crashes or injuries have been reported. About 583,000 are in the U.S. or its territories, with another 89,500 in Canada and 20,000 in Mexico. Ford said in this case, the problem may affect vehicles in other markets. All the North American Escapes were built from Oct. 5, 2011, through April 10, 2014. Recalls Ford escape
