1978 Ford Thunderbird 26,000 original miles, garage kept since new. The car has a 351/400 M engine, motorcraft 2bbl carbureator, and an automatic transmission. The car could probably use a minor tune up because it has sat more than it has been driven. The factory air conditioning still retains the R12 refrigerant and blows cold. The tires on the car were replaced about 4 years ago with new radials because of dry rot. There is no rust on the body. It was Z-barted when new. There are about 4 dings in the hood where it appears as if something fell out of the rafters of the garage onto the hood. I am sure that a PDR (paintless dent removal) company could remove the dings. There is also a ding on the passenger side door. The original bronze paint shines nicely with a few imperfections/discoloration on the headlight doors. The underside of the car is original and very nice. The interior is like new with the exception of some discoloration on the door panels and a small scrape/mark on the backseat. The factory headlights open and close like new. The factory clock still ticks like a new one. The only thing on the car that quit working is the fuel gauge. The car is completely original with the exception of the radio. The original radio was replaced with an am/fm cassette when the car was fairly new. I have owned the car for about 6 years and I purchased it from my wife's grandfather. The car is basically an untouched original. If you are looking for a Thunderbird from this era, you will not be disappointed. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Buyer is responsible for shipping. I have a clear title in hand. Good luck!

Autoblog Technology of the Year Award Special | Autoblog Podcast #758

Thu, Dec 1 2022

This episode of the Autoblog Podcast features Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore, Road Test Editor Zac Palmer and Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski. The trio begin by discussing the 2022 Technology of the Year award. Ford's Onboard Scales and Smart Hitch hauling/towing tech as tested in the F-150 Lightning won this year. Why the Ford won, how testing went down and Ford's competition — including the GMC Hummer EV and Genesis GV60 — are discussed. After diving through the Technology of the Year award testing, the three take on this week's news. A mysterious vehicle based on the Corvette (that isn't a Corvette) is supposedly on its way. Audi is giving us "Performance" versions of the RS 6 Avant and RS 7 Sportback. Plus, we discuss a recent study that provides data for the 10 longest lasting vehicles on the road today. After the news, the crew dive into the cars they've been driving this week. Greg's been behind the wheel of a Nissan Pathfinder, while Jeremy and Zac have been driving some plug-in hybrids, including the Lexus NX 450h+ and Autoblog's long-term BMW 330e xDrive.

Translogic 174: Ford envisions the future of parking

Tue, Apr 14 2015

Translogic visits Georgia Tech for a glimpse at the future of parking. First, we demo the Ford remote parking program by driving a golf cart around campus from the comfort of an off-site lab; think of remote parking as a virtual valet. Then we see how Ford's "parking spotter" works, a crowd-sourced way of finding an open space. Along the way, Translogic host Jonathon Buckley chats with Ford's global director of vehicle electrification and infrastructure, who explains how these innovative parking concepts could help us get around more efficiently.

VIDEO TRANSCRIPT Jonathon: You turn the wheel and the cart turns the wheel because we've got to remember that the carts 150 meters down that way. I should use yards because I'm not in Australia any more. Welcome to Translogic. I'm Jonathon Buckley. Every year in this country we spend over 70 million hours looking for parking. We think that's a pretty miserable way to spend that time but Ford Motor Company and Georgia Tech have taken this problem head on by developing a parking spotter experiment and some pretty cool remote driving functions to go with it. When it comes to remote vehicle repositioning, you guys have been so far using golf carts?Mike: That's right.Jonathon: What's the goal with this type of technology?Mike: As you probably know, car sharing is becoming one of the emerging trends in mobility. With that, any type of sharing program that we looked at around the world, one of the common challenges it has is that during the end of the day, or the nighttime hours, there's something that has to happen to get all the assets back to where they need to be for the next day. Cell phone technology and broadband technologies have advanced so far that we can remotely control a vehicle from anywhere it the world. For example, we could actually take this and create a virtual valet. You and your significant other pull up to, say, a restaurant. You could potentially get out of the vehicle and then the call center could take your vehicle and park it for you. You wouldn't need to do anything [00:02:00] else other than arrive at the restaurant.Jonathon: The whole thing's pretty intuitive. It works exactly as you imagine a golf cart would work. The only difference that there really is is there's just a little bit of latency that you have to account for.
