The stock 7-volt electrical system is still in place and has not ben modified. There is also a new battery in this car. This classic / historic American sport luxury coupe sedan comes with power steering, power seat, power brakes and the coolest switches, gauges and chrome trim that you will ever find on a vintage automobile! This car starts right up however only when the car is in neutral. It runs and drives well and the transmission shifts smoothly. Amazingly preserved through time, this car was very well taken care of and it really shows. Here is your chance to have one of these truly rare, low mileage, all original condition with matching numbers, iconic American cars for yourself! This car is really in good overall condition. Although the paint is cracked all over it still looks good. The carpets in it look good and the seat looks very nice. Take a look at the pictures. The inside of this car is really cool! Though inspired by, and positioned directly against, the Corvette, Ford billed the Thunderbird as a personal luxury car, putting a greater emphasis on the car's comfort and convenience features rather than its inherent sportiness. The 1955 Ford Thunderbird sold exceptionally well in its first year. In fact, the Thunderbird outsold the Corvette by more than 23-to-one! The only noticeable items are that the passenger door does not open, the paint will need to be redone, the radio is inoperative, the blower fan needs to be repaired and the car does not have a convertible top on it at all. There is no hard top either. However it needs to be noted that the frame and the floor pans are in excellent condition!!! This 1955 Ford Thunderbird Convertible is being offered "as is". Please keep in mind that this car is not restored. Instead please think of this car as an incredible place to start with very little left to make it a "show winner". It has been sitting for some time in a very safe and controlled environment. It has not seen rain or snow. You don't find these cars anymore in this original condition. so don't miss out on this incredible opportunity. This is a very nice original mileage car. Most have been modified, which actually takes away from the highest value of the vehicle. True collectors want all original cars that have not had modifications done to it. They always seek out cars that are as original or true as possible to the way they were when they first rolled off the assemble line. Here is such a car.

2014 Ford F-150 Tremor adds some sport to shake things up

Thu, 27 Jun 2013

Like most quakes, the 2014 Ford F-150 Tremor caught us by surprise. We weren't expecting Ford to offer up another version of its best-seller so soon before the truck's full redesign, but that's exactly what the company is doing.
While Ford calls the Tremor a "performance truck," the new pickup doesn't play on the same level as the SVT Raptor does on dirt, or even the long-gone SVT Lightning did on pavement. Think of it as a parts bin sport truck that probably does a better job looking the part than acting it. The Tremor utilizes the same twin-turbo, 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 available across the F-150 lineup, producing 365 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque, but matches it with a 4.10 rear axle - the shortest final drive ratio you can get in an F-150 - for the strongest possible acceleration.
The Tremor does do a decent job looking the part. Available only in short-wheelbase, regular cab configuration with your choice of two- or four-wheel drive, it struts around wearing the F-150's FX Appearance Package, flat black accents, 20-inch black wheels, HID headlights and a special exterior graphics package. The Tremor is the only regular cab F-150 with a flow-through center console, which means it also gets a floor-mounted shifter and bucket seats that are covered in black leather with red piping. Some brushed metal accents and steering wheel with red stitching round out the interior upgrades.

Ford bringing 10 custom Transit Connects to SEMA

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

With 57 vehicles planned for its SEMA display, it comes as little surprise that Ford has plenty of teasers for its show cars. After showing us what it has in store for the Mustang, Fiesta and Focus ST, now we're getting a look at some of the custom creations based on the redesigned 2014 Transit Connect van.
These nine Transit Connects are decked out to various degrees of customization, but our favorite might be the chopped and lowered Transit Connect from Mob Steel (shown above), which has a similar slammed stance that we see on some custom VW Buses. On the opposite extreme, LGE & CTS Motorsports has jacked up a Transit Connect to make a Cross Country cruiser that we wouldn't mind taking on a road trip.
There are seven other teasers from various companies, and you can check them all out in the gallery above or in the press release below. Ford is also promising a tenth Transit Connect for SEMA, so stay tuned for that as well.

J Mays on the 2015 Ford Mustang

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

J Mays, head of design at Ford, may be retiring from the company after 16 years, but not before showing the world his swan song: the 2015 Mustang. Ford officially revealed its new coupe and convertible to the public at events around the world on Thursday, including a live unveiling on ABC's Good Morning America, and Mays was in attendance at the automaker's home event in Dearborn, MI, which is where we caught up with him for a few words about his new baby.
"It's a joy" to design the Mustang, Mays told Autoblog, adding that this sixth-generation coupe is his "favorite design so far." Of course, the 2015 model takes cues from all of the generations that came before it, but Mays said it was important to edit down the specific elements from previous models, leaving just enough off to let the customer "participate and fill in the blanks."
"If it doesn't sell itself, you probably aren't a Mustang fan."
