1960 Ford Thunderbird Base Hardtop 2-door 5.8l on 2040-cars
Clearwater, Florida, United States
1960 Ford Thunderbird for Sale. Ford's introduction of the Thunderbird in 1955 as a competitor to Chevy's newly released Corvette that was a success. Like the Corvette, a popular two seater sports car designed to capture the young American Buyer. That all changed drastically in 1958 when Ford attempted to redefine what constituted a sports car. Ford realized the need for a car with sports car appeal but with room for four. In 1958, this radical change was met with mixed feelings and a belief existed that Ford had missed the market. Over the next two years, Ford continued with modifications and by 1960, the car known by many as "Box Birds" was well established. Sporty styling with sculptured lines, bucket seats, console, and a rear seat that simulated two more bucket seats in appearance but allowed room with seating for three. Still striving for the youth in their marketing program but also accommodating young families with room for the kids in the back or perhaps room to take parents or in-laws out to dinner. Here's a wonderful example of such a car. Finished in an antique white with a color coordinated and complimenting red and white interior. Powered by Ford's 352 CI V8 and mated to a smooth shifting automatic transmission, power steering and factory air conditioning. Moving to the interior you will notice power windows, power driver's seat, and an aftermarket AM/FM stereo to provide those great cruising sounds. The exterior is complimented by high gloss chrome and bright work adding to the car's appeal. The car rolls on a set of factory steel wheels with full wheel discs carrying Coker Classic wide white wall radials in 225/75R 14. Thunderbirds are extremely popular with car enthusiasts from around the world! Whether it's the first Tri-Five, Little Birds, or the Box Birds as you see here, or later models, they are great cruisers and a definite collectible. Ford enthusiasts, here's a great example of a second generation Thunderbird that is ready to cruise and enjoy! THIS AUCTION CAN BE ENDED EARLY!!

Ford Announces Free Brake-Pad Offer If Customers Stop By Dealers
Mon, Aug 4 2014These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers. "We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts. Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1. "This program reflects our commitment to providing customers with an excellent ownership experience regardless of the age of their vehicle," said Frederiek Toney, President of Ford Customer Service, in the company's announcement of the offer.

Ford confirms launch of new Tourneo vans and Ecosport in Europe for Geneva
Sun, 24 Feb 2013We've already seen plenty of what the Geneva Motor Show will have in store for us in less than two weeks, but most of the confirmed debuts that were announced so far have generally been luxury or performance cars. Ford, on the other hand, will be showing off a couple of its new family-friendly models for European buyers to enjoy.
On the larger side of things, the full range of Tourneo vans (shown above) will be on display, including the introduction of the new Tourneo Courier model, but Ford will also be showing off the all-new EcoSport crossover, which is based on the automaker's Global B platform and will be positioned beneath the Kuga, better known here as the Escape. The subcompact EcoSport was originally unveiled at the Beijing Motor Show last April.
A hybrid and electric Corvette, plus we drive the Ioniq 5 | Autoblog Podcast #728
Fri, May 6 2022In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Zac Palmer. Zac drove the electric 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5, and Greg drove the fire-breathing 2022 Maserati Levante Trofeo. The two dive deep into the relatively heavy news week by starting off with a discussion about the upcoming hybrid Corvette before chatting about what the electric Corvette might be like. They have a chat about the possibility of Porsche and Audi officially joining the Formula 1 field. Then, Greg and Zac get into some quick-hitting news to round out the segment by dissecting the updated Kia Soul (now without a turbo), the 30th Anniversary Edition Land Rover Defender and the new CEO at Aston Martin. Following the news and drive reviews, they rope in Senior Editor, Green John Beltz Snyder to give them a quick download of what went down at the first drive for the 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning. Finally, they reach into the mailbag and answer some questions from someone who is less than pleased about infotainment systems in some new cars. And lastly, the gang hears back from someone they helped out in a prior Spend My Money segment on the podcast. Send us your questions for the Mailbag and Spend My Money at: Podcast@Autoblog.com.
