Up for auction is a very nice 62 Thunderbird with 66,000 actual miles. Original drive train, 390 V8, automatic, power drivers seat, tilt away steering column Kelsey Hayes style wire wheels, aftermarket am/fm/cass stereo with Thunderbird logo(original working radio included), and radial whitewalls. This car runs,shifts and drives great. Everything seams to work including the clock. It has a newer exhaust w/glass packs and it sounds great. I have receipts totaling over $7300.00 worth of work and parts done to this car over the last 10 years. It has been very well maintained. The exterior paint is not perfect but shines nice. There are 2 stone chips on the hood and 2 small paint bubbles behind each rear wheel but hard to see. The doors are clean on the bottom, floor pans and trunk floor are solid with no repairs. The stainless is very presentable with only a couple minor dings, but as nice as I've seen on a daily driver. Both bumpers are new as are the hood and trunk ornaments and Thunderbird fender scripts. The grill guard was not replaced when the bumpers were done but looks presentable. Wire wheels have a little surface rust. Under the hood, new chrome valve covers have been added and an aftermarket air breather but the original air breather is included. All the glass is nice with no cracks. Interior appears to be original except for the new headliner and is very presentable. Dash has no cracks, looks good and the carpet is showing it's age but for 51 years old looks presentable. Door panels are in good shape for being the originals. The steering wheel has a cover on it probably hiding a crack or two. The trunk looks like new and includes factory jack and spare. With this car is the original bill of sale, owners manual, shop manual, receipts for repairs made over many years, original radio and air breather. If you looking for a super running classic this is your car. While not show quality, this is a damn nice car and with a little tweaking could be show quality but remember it's 50+ years old. As with any vintage car it is being sold "AS IS" with no promises or warranties. The car is available for inspection during the auction, not afterwards. Please ask questions as I don't do returns. A deposit of $1000.00 is due via paypal within 24 hours of auction close and the balance due within 5 days of auction close via cash in person or wire transfer, NO EXCEPTIONS !!!!!!!!!!!

How and why Ford is rolling out Vignale in Europe
Wed, 09 Oct 2013
We know that Ford is positioning the new, upscale Vignale brand in Europe to fill a niche market of customers who want a bit more luxury, a lot more service and the same reliability and dependability that a non-Vignale Ford offers. But so far, we've been in the dark regarding how the Blue Oval will sell Vignale vehicles, how many of them will be created, and what the new sub-brand has in store for the future.
Gaetano Thorel, Ford's European marketing head, recently was interviewed by Automotive News and shared details about Ford Vignale. Thorel says, "The Vignale trim line will be priced like an ST model but attract a completely different type of customer." Specifically, he says it will attract customers in the upper 15 percent of the price band who don't want a performance-oriented ST model. He adds that Vignale cars will be about 10 percent more expensive than Titanium-trim cars. About 500 of Ford's European dealers will sell Vignale Fords, Thorel says, "in areas that make sense." The automaker expects 10 percent of its European sales to be Vignale cars, which equates to about 5 percent of its global sales. When asked if there are any other Vignale models planned beyond the Mondeo, Thorel said, "There is nothing written in stone yet."
How Ford hid the 2015 Mustang from spy photographers
Fri, 20 Dec 2013Now that we've finally seen the 2015 Ford Mustang, it's fun to go back and look at the spy shots we spent months pouring over, trying to dissect what was under all the camouflage. For the most part, Ford did a good job of concealing the car from spy photographers, and it released a video showing how much work went into doing so.
As crude as the Mustang's camo looked, all of the hard plastic, foam, vinyl and ratchet straps were actually created and put in place by a specific design team. The whole idea was to hide the car's identity, but it certainly ended up acting as a magnet for attention, too. According to Ford's press release, it took less than an hour for spy shots to appear online after the car was taken on public roads for the very first time - this is likely in reference to our first official spy shots of the Mustang from June, shown in the gallery below.
Scroll down for a press release and video, which shows footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang testing with minimal camouflage. This is probably the same track session where we got our first look at the Mustang's face back in August.
