You are bidding on a 1964 Thunderbird Convertible with the roadster package. This started out as a South Carolina car so there is no rust. It has a nice solid body. I have done a lot of work on her over the past 2 years that I have owned her. It has a new suspension including new leaf springs, bushings, shackles and shocks in the rear. (No saggy butt on this bird like most). She sits right. In the front I replaces the coil springs, upper control arms, lower control arm bushings, upper ball joints, lower ball joints, stabilizer links and bushings, stabilizer bushings and front shocks. Everything I took off the car was sanded to bare metal and painted before re-assembling. At some time the engine and tranny were rebuilt. I did add and brand new Holley four barrel and a pertronix distributor electronic ignition which eliminates the points. I replaced the back bumper with a brand new one and new tail light lenses too. 1964 did not come with sequential signals so I added digital sequencers to the signals that work great. I added a new dedent plate and new shift handle along with a new signal switch and gear shift indicator. All of the hard stuff is done. Some of the things left to do are it has Kelsey Hayes wire wheel but one has elongated lug holes and all have minimal surface rust. The tires are old and should be replaced. The paint is driver quality and has some chips and imperfections. The seat covers are good but the foam in the front seats could use replacing. It does have newer carpet. The gas gauge does not work but I have a new one that will go with the car. The speedometer works but needs a new cable. I have a new cable that goes with the car. Horn needs to be hooked up. All lights work as they should. The convertible mecanism works good but occasionally I have to play with the main limit switch to open the smaller lid. I believe it is just an adjustment to the switch. All of the hard stuff is finished just waiting your finishing touches. She is a good driver now. Enjoy as is or bring her to the next level with some tires, wheels and paint! Please call with any questions you might have. My cell is 203 233 5023 or my home number is 860 4176164. Ask for Bill. Leave a message if no answer and I will call you back.Thanks for looking!

Ford abandons MyFord Touch, all hail Sync 3 infotainment [w/video]

Thu, Dec 11 2014

MyFord Touch has been among the most widely disdained automotive infotainment systems on the market, practically since its introduction in 2010. Consumer Reports was among the most vocal critics, all but advocating its lynching by an angry mob armed with torches and pitchforks. Not surprisingly, then, after such a critical walloping, Ford has finally decided to say goodbye to the unloved tech, declaring the end of MyFord Touch branding in favor of Sync 3 for its upcoming, all-new system. Ford is promising everything you would expect from Sync 3, including faster response time, better voice-command integration, easier controls and a more useable interface. The screen layout includes fewer items to make them easier to discern, and the icons are made from large, high-contrast buttons. There's also a dedicated tab for apps at the bottom of the screen in addition to those for audio, climate, phone and navigation. Another useful feature is the fact that Sync 3 can download improvements over your home Wi-Fi for easier updates. In addition to the revamped interface, the software running behind the scenes is a big change too. Rather than MyFord Touch's Microsoft-sourced system, Sync 3 uses the Blackberry-owned QNX, according to Automotive News. Such a switch was rumored earlier this year. Drivers still have to live with MyFord Touch a little longer, though. According to Automotive News, Ford said that the change to Sync 3 will happen during the 2016 model year with complete integration into the lineup by the end of the 2016 calendar year. It will come standard on Titanium trim models and as a separate option will be priced in line with the current MyFord Touch. The Sync 3 brand will carry over to Lincoln, too, but with a different look. The gallery above shows a few more looks at the interface, and we invite you to scroll down to watch a video of Sync 3 in action and to read Ford's press release about it, below.

Ford demonstrates Mustang's new Line Lock burnout feature

Tue, 22 Apr 2014

Been saving your pennies for a 2015 Ford Mustang? Put in a few extra shifts or some overtime? Got a great down payment ready? Well, however much you saved for your new pony car, start saving more - you'll need the extra money to spend on tires.
That's because the Mustang will come with a system called Line Lock, which can lock the front brakes electronically, allowing drivers to perform big, dumb, smoky burnouts without moving so much as an inch. It's sort of like launch control, only the average driver might actually use it.
Now, line locks aren't uncommon, particularly in drag racing. Usually, a flip of the switch locks the front brakes. The Mustang, besides offering the system from the factory which is unique in and of itself, looks a bit more involved.
