1960 thunderbird, vin number DY71Y164977 runs and drives excellent, only 73,000 original miles, this was a barn find from California, so there is no real rust to speak of, there are a couple rust spots here and there, but nothing significant, the color looks to be pink but it is called "palm springs rose" all power windows work, turn signals work, wipers work but are weak, transmission shifts good, has 352 motor, everything as far as I can tell is original. It has new hoses battery and fresh tune up, new belts and air filter, fresh oil change, does not leak any fluids. This is a really nice thunderbird and it does come with the back fender wheel skirts they just pop right on, the interior has some wear and couple tears in the driver and passenger seats, the back is pretty much perfect, no cracks in the glass, also keep in mind you are buying a 52 year old car so it is as is. It has a clean title. The radio is original but does not seem to work, I have not tried to get it working. This can be used as a everyday driver, it has been very dependable. Please Do Not Bid unless you are going to pay, I require a $500 non refundable deposit. And full payment within 3 days. Also I will work with your shipping company if you have one, and I will also work with you untill you can arrange to come get it, if you have any questions you can call me.the reserve is set at a very reasonable price for the thunderbird you will be getting. 503-719-0516. Thank you

By the way i am told he first letter in the vin is a "O" so I misread it ,the zero I'm told is for 1960 in the vin number, the thunderbird is all original and a 1960. The hubcaps are not original, and tires are good.

Ford invests $682 million in Edge-producing Canadian facility
Sun, 22 Sep 2013Ford announced that it's investing $682 million in its Oakville assembly plant in Ontario, Canada, to make it a global manufacturing plant, which the automaker also says secures 2,800 jobs there. Including this injection of cash, Ford has invested over $2 billion in Canada in the last decade, starting with nearly $1 billion for Oakville in 2004, and over $570 million for its Essex Engine Plant in 2010.
The move to make Oakville a global manufacturer of Ford vehicles means, "If consumers suddenly shift their buying habits, we can seamlessly change our production mix without having to idle a plant," says Joe Hinrichs, Ford's president of the Americas.
Ford says that the latest investment will help it meet North American demand for the Oakville-produced Edge crossover, which is on track this year to beat 2007's US sales record of 130,000 Edges. The Ford Flex and Lincoln MKX and MKT are also manufactured at the plant.
Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th
Tue, 15 Apr 2014It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
Old vs. new debate gets new life with $25,000 Fiesta ST vs. E46 M3 showdown
Fri, 10 Jan 2014You know who you are. There's probably a few of you reading; the ones that say, "Why would I spend $27,000 on a new Mazda MX-5 when I could get a used Chevrolet Corvette with more power." Yes, we're talking to you, used car proponents. While it is a fair argument, it's not like used cars don't come with drawbacks of their own, though.
In an attempt to put this new-versus-used argument to bed once and for all, Matt Farah of the The Smoking Tire has picked up a pair of $25,000 cars - a used, but lightly modified, 2003 BMW M3 and a 2013 Ford Fiesta ST. Naturally, there's a comparison.
Farah, as he's wont to do, does get into the nitty gritty of what each car is like to drive, and discusses the merits of used and new-car shopping. But as he rightly points out while testing the M3, "So, it is a good car. But like any used car, it really does depend on the individual car."
