1962 Ford Thunderbird
Offered for sale is the Tbird seen below. This car is a slight custom that has a great look and turns heads anywhere it goes. Although not perfect his is an extremely nice cruiser that is nicer then most you will come across. There has been a lot of money spent over the years on improvements and upgrades to make the car what it is today.
For starters the 390 v8 engine was completely removed and rebuilt in 2008 and the car has enjoyed very little mileage since. The odometer was reset when the engine was rebuilt and it now has 3,100 miles. The heads and intake valves where also redone at the same time along with rebuilt starter and bendix. The car starts and runs great. The engine was also dressed with many chrome parts including water pump, power steering cover, cross support bars, heater delete plate, oil filler tube, coolant over flow, coolant filler neck and polished aluminum valve covers with matching air cleaner. It also has a brand new very expensive correct battery and new correct battery cables and washer bag.
The interior is very nice and presentable. As good as it looks in the photos and features a newer digital style thunderbird logo radio, swing away steering wheel, power windows, upgraded Dolphin gauges that all work correctly. The power windows all work but the drivers side sometimes needs a little help to go up. Extremely nice with brand new correct rubber mats, newer seat covers, carpet, door panels, headliner. It comes with a brand new tray insert for center console and brand new never opened never installed door felts that need to be put on the car.
The paint is about 15 years old, very nice but not perfect. There are imperfections such as a chip ding or minor scratch that is shown in the pictures below. It is a very straight solid body. The only metal replacement was one spot in the trunk floor. The biggest fault is pitting around the chrome trim on windows which is also shown in the pics. Lots of nice upgrades including true wire wheels with like new wide white walls with inner tubes. It has brand new rear bumper Q’s lenses and rubber which are extremely expensive for the right stuff. It has a custom front grille and the car has been lowered by 2’’. Underneath it also has a brand new fuel tank.
One of our salesmen was a previous owner of this car for 12 years. He knows pretty much anything you could want to know about the car and you can reach him directly at 216-978-7274 his name is Gary.

Ford spotted testing new Focus RS at the Nurburgring
Thu, 26 Jun 2014Ford is expected to be launching a revised version of the Focus ST soon, but the latest snapshots from our spy photographers at the Nürburgring suggest that the Blue Oval is already working on an even more potent example: the new Focus RS.
Though the partially disguised test mule is wearing an ST badge (along with a Dewey sticker that makes us wonder what adventures Huey and Louie are up to and what manner of duck-tail rear spoiler they may be wearing), there are several tell-tale signs that something else is afoot here. There's a larger front air dam, bigger brake calipers, dual exhaust tips (instead of the central exhaust on the ST) and a reshaped wing protruding from the trailing edge of the roof.
That may all be well and fine, but what's under the hood? We don't know yet for sure, but word has it that Ford is preparing to port over the 2.3-liter turbo four offered in the new Mustang, where it packs 305 horsepower and almost as much torque - potentially retuned to produce even more for the top-of-the-line Focus, which could channel it all to the front wheels like the last model or pack an all-wheel drive system. The Global C platform on which the Focus is based does, after all, also underpin AWD models like the Ford Escape and Lincoln MKC.
Ford, Volvo top 2014 EyesOn Design awards
Fri, 17 Jan 2014Each year at the Detroit Auto Show, the top vehicle designs are recognized with the prestigious EyesOn Design award for production and concept vehicles. This year, the 32 EyesOn Design judges (comprised of current and former vehicle designers including Chrysler designer and SRT president Ralph Gilles, Kia designer Peter Schreyer and retired General Motors designer Wayne Cherry) handed out three awards for the Best Concept Vehicle, Best Production Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials.
Beating out the Mercedes C-Class and Ford F-150, the 2015 Ford Mustang was named the Best Production Vehicle as the top auto show debut at this year's Detroit show. The 2014 Volvo Concept XC Coupe took home awards as the Best Concept Vehicle and for its Innovative Use of Color, Graphics and Materials.
Considering the Volvo's primer grey hue and subtle orange accents, it was a rather surprising winner for Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials over flashier concepts like the Toyota FT-1 and our Editors' Choice top pick, the Kia GT4 Stinger. Other vehicles in the running for the concept car award include the GT4 Stinger and Audi Allroad Shooting Brake
Ford Q1 profits dragged down by warranty costs
Fri, 25 Apr 2014General Motors isn't the only Detroit automaker posting falling profits in the first quarter. Ford just released its Q1 2014 financial data, and it reported a net income of $989 million, down $622 million from Q1 2013. The drop is partially blamed on higher warranty and recall expenses than the company had anticipated.
Financially, Ford suffered a rough quarter almost across the board. Its pre-tax profit of $1.4 billion was also down $765 million from a year ago. Things were even worse in the North American market where operating profit fell significantly to $1.5 billion, down from $2.392 billion in Q1 2013. However, its global revenue ticked up slightly to $35.9 billion, from $35.6 billion in this period in 2013.
Ford admitted that it spent about $900 million on expenses that it hadn't planned for during this quarter. According to Reuters, the company paid about $400 million in additional warranty and recall costs in North America. The automaker didn't explain why the costs were so much higher than expected. However, in the last three months, Ford has had several recalls, including on the 2001-2004 Escape for rust, Explorer for its steering, Edge for its fuel line and others.
