Franconia, New Hampshire, United States

This is a relisting - apparently there are people out there who press the Buy it Now button and then refuse to pay or even communicate. There will be some very negative feedback coming your way Ann Dora who goes under the name deeann2 - watch out everyone for that one ! Anyway, this great and rare restoration project is now back and available to those who truly wish to purchase this rare convertible and make it into the car its intended to be. This is the last of the cool Thunderbirds in 1966. They grew into a luxo-barge in 1967. This convertible has a unique top where it disappears into the trunk. Note the cool back seat that wraps around the cabin. You just don't see those features anymore ! This car doesn't run and needs a complete restoration. It is believed that the mileage is correct and that all parts are with the car. New Hampshire does not have titles for cars older than 25 years so it is marked as clear. On Jul-15-14 at 11:04:20 PDT, seller added the following information: Every effort was made to accurately describe the car and its condition. I own several cars and am presently selling 4 at the same time from my collection - cars that I don't think I will ever get time to restore. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ASK ALL QUESTIONS about anything - condition, issues, anything because ALL SALES ARE FINAL. If you have any doubt, please hire someone to examine the car for you. There are services available for you to have pre-purchase inspections. On Jul-17-14 at 14:30:01 PDT, seller added the following information: Yes, this needs a complete restoration, but the engine turns over and the hydraulic motor for the top works. All parts seem to be there - you may have to get some trim pieces. Definite rust around all quarters. Surface rust on hood on trunk. Needs a full restoration. Don't pass up this 66 Bird - last of the unique "Jet Pilot" interior, wrap around back seat, convertible that disappears into the trunk. This is the last of the cool Thunderbirds in 1966.

Ken Block's 1965 Ford Mustang Hoonicorn RTR and CR Supercars Villain are retro done right
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Gymkhana king Ken Block has had a pretty simple car history in his trademark videos, starting out with Subaru Impreza rally cars before moving into Ford Focus racers for the past four installments. His next video, though, Gymkhana Seven, kind of goes back in time.
Rather than the cutting-edge rally racers of past videos, Block will pilot a heavily modified 1965 Ford Mustang, called the Hoonicorn. How heavily modified is it? Well, Block's Hooligan Racing Division, ASD Motorsports and Vaughn Gittin Jr.'s RTR, spent two years working on it, ditching the standard engine and rear-wheel-drive layout and replacing it with a 410-cubic-inch Roush Yates V8. Yes, that's a NASCAR engine, and it produces 845 horsepower.
A NASCAR-powered Mustang would be news in itself, but it's the other powertrain changes made by Block and Co. that really makes headlines. Power is channeled through a one-off Sadev transmission and all-wheel-drive system, meaning that Block has basically married a NASCAR stock car with a WRC racer. ASD also developed the customized suspension, tubular chassis and roll cage. The wide Mustang body is the work of RTR and Block's own Hoonigan Racing Division, while the 18-inch fifteen52 wheels are shod in Pirelli Trofeo R tires that use a specialized compound exclusive to Block.
Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla considers Model III SUV and wagon, Ford tears Tesla apart
Mon, Oct 27 2014Worries over Brazil's electric grid mean EVs are excluded from green car incentives. As part of a new efficiency program, non-plug-in hybrids will be eligible for a reduction in import duties, while EVs and plug-in hybrids will not. Brazil's government is concerned that the country's grid lacks the capacity to handle the increased load from an influx of EVs. Brazil plans to create a new incentive program - perhaps a more inclusive one - when the current one expires at the end of 2015. Read more at Green Car Reports. Tesla could make SUV and wagon derivatives of the upcoming Model III sedan. Tesla's VP of engineering, Chris Porritt, told Auto Express that to reach as many customers as possible, Tesla would consider all its options. "SUVs, estates - who knows?" says Porritt. He also says that while the company is currently focused on products with a broader appeal, another Roadster or other sports car aren't out of the question in the future. Read more at Auto Express. Ford admits to a Tesla Model S teardown. Ford CEO Mark Fields says that after disassembling, reassembling and driving the model S, his company is "very familiar with that product." He also says the Ford has the capability to build a similarly high-tech, long-range electric car. The questions still remains if Ford has plans for such a vehicle, but Fields says that it fits within Ford's "product philosophy." Read more at Business Insider and at USA Today.
