1963 Thunderbird Convertible - Nicest "driver" You Will Find - A True Must See! on 2040-cars
Lexington, North Carolina, United States
|
This beautiful Thunderbird Convertible is nearly all original and has been well cared for. As you can see, the fender skirts (which are being provided with the car) have been removed, and new 16" Real Wire Wheels (with knock-off hubs) have been added. Man, they're classy! The top was replaced a few years ago and is still in excellent condition since the car has been garage kept. It has also been repainted, and looks wonderful! You will not believe how good this car looks in real life. We get looks, smiles, waves, and thumbs-up wherever we go, and it starts conversations every time you have it in park! The interior is all original (except we did have to install a new dash cover) and in wonderful condition. Some of the bright metal in the interior is showing some pitting, but it still shines and is quite presentable. The 390 V-8, adds quite a lot to the value and collectability of the car, and it runs very well. Highway speeds of 65 - 70 mph are maintained comfortably. No doubt that higher speeds would be as well, but our comfort level is what we are advertising. Then there is the Swing-Away Steering Wheel. When demonstrating the car to others, this feature is still a very intriguing conversation piece. Feel free to call me to discuss anything at all regarding this very attractive and mature lady. She drives very nicely, and with the top down she hardly makes a sound. With the top up, she has a few rattles due to her age, but, she's as sweet as ever, and loves to show you a good time! The current issue of the Black Book for collectable cars shows the value of this car in "Fair" condition is $13,500, and in "Good" condition it is $23,500. NADA shows it even higher. We believe our car would be classified as "Good." But our reserve is closer to "Fair." We think this is your opportunity to get a steal! For details we might have left out, please call 336-239-4263 anytime between 6AM and 9PM Eastern. And, thanks for looking. Happy bidding! |

Ford's Mulally now said to be in lead for Microsoft CEO job
Sun, 29 Sep 2013There have been rumors that Ford CEO Alan Mulally could assume the top job over at Microsoft, whose CEO, Steve Ballmer, will retire within the year. Mulally hasn't come out and said that he's considering moving to Microsoft after (or before) his contract with Ford through 2014 ends, but sources in the know say he's the front-runner to become the tech giant's CEO and has opened up to the idea more in recent weeks, AllThingsD reports.
Mulally is no stranger to Washington, where Microsoft is located, having worked in the state for Seattle-based Boeing Commercial Airplanes as CEO years ago. He also recently was an adviser to Ballmer in an effort to realign the company's management structure to help it become more competitive in a fast-changing computer hardware and software market. And when Ford developed its Sync digital interface, it tapped Microsoft to provide the operating system, Microsoft Auto. Perhaps the least crucial connection - but nonetheless an important one - is that Mulally still owns a house in the Seattle area, and it's been said he wants to return there, according to AllThingsD.
A main challenge Microsoft's next CEO will face is how to manage the company's numerous, fractured operations and, eventually, streamline them. But even on this front, Mulally has experience; after all, it was he who ushered in an era of global Ford vehicles, after the automaker had become complacent developing and selling vehicles by region leading up to the economic recession of 2008-2009.
Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company
Thu, 03 Oct 2013
That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.
Ford recalls Explorer and Lincoln MKC for fire hazard
Thu, Mar 31 2016The Basics: Ford will recall 5,536 examples of the 2016 Explorer and 2015-2016 Lincoln MKC. The Explorers have build dates between October 20, 2014, and January 28, 2016, at the Chicago Assembly Plant. The MKCs are from between November 25, 2013, and January 25, 2016, at the Louisville Assembly Plant. In total, there are 3,129 total affected examples of the 2015-2016 Lincoln MKC and 2,407 examples of the 2016 Ford Explorer. Of these, 1,543 are in the US and 3,993 are in Canada. The Problem: The combination of the engine block design and the block heater in these vehicles can cause the part to overheat when plugged in. Injuries/Deaths: None reported, but there are two cases of underhood fires in Canada. If you own one: Ford will begin notifying owners during the week of May 16, company spokesperson John Cangany tells Autoblog. Related Video: Ford issues safety recall for certain 2015-2016 Lincoln MKC and 2016 Ford Explorer vehicles to replace engine block heaters Ford is issuing a safety recall for approximately 5,500 2015-2016 Lincoln MKC and 2016 Ford Explorer vehicles to remove the heaters and replace them with an updated design. The engine block design, coupled with the particular block heater installed in these vehicles, causes the unit to be susceptible to overheating when the vehicle is parked and the block heater is plugged in –increasing the risk of an underhood fire. Ford is aware of two reports of underhood fires in Canada, but is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this issue. Affected vehicles include certain 2015-2016 Lincoln MKC vehicles built at Louisville Assembly Plant, Nov. 25, 2013 through Jan. 25, 2016 and certain 2016 Ford Explorer vehicles built at Chicago Assembly Plant, Oct. 20, 2014 through Jan. 28, 2016. There are 5,536 vehicles affected by the issue, including 3,129 2015-2016 Lincoln MKC and 2,407 2016 Ford Explorer vehicles, with 1,543 of the affected vehicles in the United States and federalized territories and 3,993 in Canada. Dealers will remove and replace the engine block heater with an updated design and, if needed, replace the cord at no cost to the customer.
