1955 Ford Thunderbird Base Convertible 2-door 4.8l on 2040-cars
Warsaw, Indiana, United States
|
1955 Ford Thunderbird 31,500 ORIGINAL mileage The car has no rust and has no evidence of it ever having rust. Trunk and floors are perfect. Bottom of doors are perfect. I've added pictures of both. Five years ago this car was appraised at $48,500.00. The paint was in better shape. A fresh coat of paint would make it a $40k car! NADA values are $25k to $55k; Hagarty is $20k to $60k. My bottom price is a firm $25,000.00. You should see what Amos Mintor sells his t-birds for; this is a deal for a low-mileage t-bird!! This car is an investment, which you will never loose money, nor are they going down in price. Car is current on license, registration, and insurance. Clear Indiana title showing ACTUAL MILEAGE. I also have two previous title copies with milage actual. Main reason for selling the car we have a 10 month old and don't have the extra time to enjoy the car anymore. The car was repainted snowshoe white, in the early 80's. The paint is 30+ years old and could use fresh paint, but overall still looks good. Interior is very nice - black and white. 6 volt - 4 ply bias wide white wall tires A lot of options include: AM Radio, power brakes, power steering, power seats, power windows, windshield washers, and backup lights. The motor is original 292 with teapot Holley carb. Hard top - only car has swing up bracket so convertible top could be added - not included. Not many original 1955 Thunderbirds around with 31,500 actual mileage - body is solid - car has not been messed with a lot; just sat in a couple peoples collection. SERIOUS inquiries only - no low-ballers, solicitors - no trades - CASH MONEY. Car is sold as is, so please ask questions. Buyer is responsible for making own arrangements to pick up car. |

Are you the next Ford Edge? [UPDATE]
Wed, 13 Feb 2013What looks to be the next Ford Edge has been leaked in an apparent corporate Powerpoint presentation deck. Despite the thumbnail image's blurry and pixelated quality, it appears as if the next generation crossover will be staying close to its current aesthetic despite an all-new front clip with redesigned grille, headlamps, and lower fascia with integrated fog lights.
The upscale-minded Blue Oval CUV is due for a redesign in 2015, having just received a mid-cycle refresh for 2011. It isn't clear what changes lie beneath the new skin, either in terms of mechanicals or interior refinement, but we suspect Ford will be looking to put some distance between the next generation model and the new Escape, which is suddenly much more car-like and not that far off the more expensive Edge in terms of overall size, power or refinement.
UPDATE: Substituted clearer image - thanks, Sean!
Ex-PR chief Vines accuses Ford of bugging cars, phones
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Jason Vines, former head of communications at Ford among other automakers, is accusing the Blue Oval of bugging his company phone and his car during the Firestone tire recall for the Explorer in 2001. The allegations have come to light in Vines' upcoming book What Did Jesus Drive? Crisis PR in Cars, Computers and Christianity.
According to The Detroit News, which has an advance copy of the book, Vines (pictured above) claims that after leaving the company, someone with security within Ford advised him that he had been bugged around the time of the recall. The allegations don't stop there, though. Vines further contends that he might not have been the only one to get this treatment, noting that then-general counsel John Rintamaki also believed he was being listened to.
According to The Detroit News, even if it had been a company phone, recording Vines without his knowledge still would have been a felony under Michigan law.
Recharge Wrap-Up: Tesla, CarCharging and the EPA
Sat, Aug 23 2014Credit Suisse analysts are bullish on Tesla. The group gives the electric car company's stock an "outperform" rating with a target price of $325. For its continued success, Credit Suisse cites the vehicles' superior technology, in turn offering more torque, roominess and reliability. Says analyst Dan Galves said of Tesla's competition with ICEs, "If Tesla can get to cost-parity with Internal Combustion vehicles and still offer $1,400 to $2,500 per year fuel savings to the consumer, it won't be a fair fight."

The Tesla app is adding this functionality soon, perhaps with the update to iOS 8. It's not yet clear how this function will work, but it's one more innovative convenience feature that Model S owners can enjoy. That means drivers will have less to carry in their pockets or purses when they go for a drive. Read more at 9 to 5 Mac. CarCharging Group has remotely lowered the amperage on some of its residential users' Blink charging stations to 24 amps. This will slow down the charging time for affected customers with 6.6-kilowatt charging by about 15 percent. The company cited safety reasons for the move, with concerns about overheating. The amperage reduction is temporary, until CarCharging is able to provide replacement parts for the chargers. Some are concerned about the delayed action, as well as the fact that the reduction was handled without owner permission. Read more at Plugin Cars. Ford is halting test drives and sales of certain C-Max hybrid and Focus models due to a safety concern. Cars made during a single week this month at a Michigan factory may not have enough ball bearings in the steering gear assembly, which could lead to loss of control. None of the affected cars have been sold, Ford says, and about 50 units are currently at dealerships. Just over 600 will need to be recalled. Dealerships have been notified of the problem.

The report shows a 66-percent reduction in benzene, almost 60 percent reduction in mercury from man-made sources, 84 percent less lead and more.
