THE BEST UNRESTORED ORIGINAL SURVIVOR 1956 FORD THUNDERBIRDS EXHISTING IN THE WORLD TODAY.
FIRST LET ME SAY, ORIGINAL AND SURVIVOR ARE TWO OF THE MOST OVER USED AND OVER STATED DESCRIPTIONS IN THE OLD CAR
WORLD TODAY.....BUT NOT IN THIS CASE...AND I DO KNOW THEIR ACTUAL MEANING HAVING BEEN INVOLVED IN THE COLLECTOR CAR
WORLD FOR NEARLY 45 YEARS. THE CAR WAS SOLD NEW IN 1956 TO A HOLLYWOOD MOVIE PRODUCER BY BEVERLY HILLS FORD CO. WHO
KEPT IT FOR SEVERAL YEARS BEFORE SELLING IT TO MRS. DORIS SANDORE OF WEST LOS ANGELES.....I THEN PURCHASED FROM HER
IN 1986 AND SOLD IT TO AN AVID COLLECTOR WHO KEPT IT THE ENTIRE TIME WHILE DRIVING IT LESS THAN 2,000 MILES UNTIL I
REPURCHASED IT AGAIN SOME 30 YEARS LATER. I AM NOW GOING TO SELL THE CAR AGAIN, SADLY, DUE TO PERSONAL REASONS,
HAVING NOTHING TO DUE WITH THE CAR ITSELF. THIS BUCKSKIN TAN/COLONIAL WHITE (PINK) THUNDERBIRD HAS EVERY POSSIBLE
OPTION AVAILABLE IN 1956 INCLUDING FULL POWER AND BOTH TOPS, (SEE ORIGINAL FACTORY INVOICE), WITH EVERTHING IN
PROPER WORKING ORDER, INCLUDING RADIO AND CLOCK. LIFETIME SILICONE BRAKES AND STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST SYSTEM

INCLUDED IN THE SALE!! ORIGINAL HEADLIGHT BULBS, WIPER BLADES AND ON AND ON IT GOES. THE BODY IS UNTOUCHED FROM NEW
INCLUDING THE FACTORY APPLIED PAINT WITH ORIGINAL PANEL FIT AND FINISH BEING VERY GOOD FOR A 1950'S BUILT CAR, AND
THE PASSAGE OF TIME. CHROME AND BRIGHT WORK ARE EXCELLENT. INTERIOR IS ALSO FACTORY INSTALLED ORIGINAL WITH THE
EXCEPTION OF A CORRECT REPLACEMENT SEAT COVER INSTALLED 28 YEARS AGO....CARPET, HEADLINER, DASH, ETC. ARE MINT.
MILEAGE IS LOW @ 61K ACTUAL, BUT COULD PASS FOR 15K LOOKING AT THE CAR. BEST UNRESTORED 60 YR. OLD VEHICLE YOU WILL
EVER FIND.........THEY CAN ONLY BE ORIGINAL ONCE, AND NOBODY DOES IT LIKE THE FACTORY....RESTORED CARS ARE NOT THE
SAME AND A DIME A DOZEN, NO MATTER HOW MUCH TIME AND $ ARE SPENT. INSPECTIONS ARE POSSIBLE AND ENCOURGED TO

Car and Driver shows off awesome 1960s ads
Fri, Sep 11 2015Someone must have recently rediscovered the keys to the archives at Car and Driver, and the access has been put to good use. Following last month's fantastic look at automotive ads from the '50s, there's now a new gallery running from March 1960 through December 1969. This collection provides a great overview of a decade full of iconic cars. If you're a fan of Carroll Shelby, particularly his Mustangs, then there's a lot to love among this group. One ad from July 1965 aimed to sell the GT350, but with an ocean of text and a tiny picture, it probably could've used a once-over by Don Draper's team. By December '65, the copywriters ironed out the problems with a spot proclaiming boldly "Shelby GT350 is 'Son of Cobra.'" The company offered some great accessories, too. For those into European motoring, there's a humorous attempt to sell the Alfa Romeo Giulia as both a racecar and family hauler. Toyota also boasts about the winning record for the 2000GT. Among the best text comes from BMW for lines like: "What's BMW got? The most advanced high-performance engine in any production car, for a cruising speed of 100 mph." Of course, Volkswagen's famous "Lemon" ad for the Beetle also gets its due here. Separately, each of these ads is fascinating, but taken together they tell the story of a great decade of motoring. Go give them all a read at Car and Driver.

Would you pay $17 a month to give your older Ford connectivity?
Fri, Mar 30 2018When it was first introduced in 2007, there was nothing like the original Ford Sync system, since it allowed car owners to connect and use a portable device better than anything that came before it. And because it was a brought-in/tethered and software-based system, Sync leveraged a device's connectivity and was easily updated. It took competitors awhile to catch up: Toyota Entune wasn't available until 2011, and Chevy MyLink didn't roll out until 2012. But now Ford is the one playing catchup since it stuck with the brought-in strategy while most other automakers were quicker to add connectivity via an embedded cellular modem. Ford initially installed 2G/3G modems in its small fleet of electric and plug-in electric vehicles starting in 2012 so that owners could keep tabs on charging. Embedded connectivity came to Lincoln in 2014, and Ford began adding onboard 4G LTE via Sync Connect to select cars starting with the Escape in 2015. To get more cars connected more quickly, last week the automaker rolled out its FordPass SmartLink solution that plugs into the OBD port of 2010 to 2017 model year vehicles. This lets owners retroactively get onboard Wi-Fi, set up a "geo-fence" to keep tabs on a car's location, receive vehicle health reports and allows remote engine starting and door locking/unlocking using a smartphone app, among other features. But to connect older Ford vehicles will cost owners $16.99 a month for two years, not including installation. Ford throws in 1 GB of data or a 30-day trial, whichever comes first, after which owners have to add the vehicle to their Verizon shared data plan, which supplies connectivity for SmartLink, or establish a new account. (Disclosure: Autoblog is owned by Verizon.) By comparison, GM's 4G LTE data plans start at $10 a month for 200 MB and goes up to $30 for 3 GB, and owners can also add a car to an AT&T shared-data plan. But OnStar doesn't have a separate monthly subscription for the embedded modem or an installation charge, and standard features via the RemoteLink Mobile App are free for the first five years of ownership. FCA's Uconnect Access service also uses an embedded modem to provide similar telematics features for $20 per month following a free one-year trial, while a la carte in-car Wi-Fi is offered for $10 per day, $20 per week or $35 per month.
