Your looking at a very nice condition 1966 Ford Thunderbird Landau edition with some minor customizations. Over all condition is very good. A great Saturday night cruiser or a great day at a car show,thats what Ive been doing with it for the past 10 years but its time for something new.
She starts easy and runs all days smooth and straight. She always turns heads and starts conversations everywhere I go. I bought this 10 years ago from my uncle who bought it from his father so to my knowledge I'm the 3rd owner and the millage is original. In the last 10 years Ive only put about 2000 miles on it going to local car shows and an occasional date night,other then that shes kept in my garage and hasnt seen rain or salty roads since Ive owned it. It runs smooth and consistent every time I take it out and it even has a fair amount of power and breaks the tires loose on occasion. Shes heavy but still has a lot of power left in the big 390. If you look at the pictures you TBird buffs will notice some cosmetic differences then what a stock Landau would have. Most noticeably are the round rear windows like a 55' TBird has. The rear decorative "S" shaped stock trim was removed (I have the original trim in the trunk) and round windows from a 55' Tbird were custom installed to give it a bit of a 55' look. This is one of the coolest and most unique touches that this car has and Ive never seen that done on any other bird. You will also notice the absence of the fender skirts on the rear wells that most models of this year had. This car was made with the trim package instead if the skirts,a rare option on this year. Those are not the original hub cabs either (I have the original hubcaps in the trunk). I believe these hubcaps are from a 1990 Thunderbird but they work so well why change it back. Some other mechanical upgrades have been made to make it more "drivable" on a regular basis and some just for maintenance purposes. *Stock points were removed and replaced with a MSD ignition. *Stock 2 barrel carb was replaced with Holly 4 Barrel carb. *Dual exhaust all the way back with chrome tips. *Stock single piston calipers were removed and replaced with Mustang 2 piston calipers. *Gas lines and brake lines were replaced. *Front end ball joints and bushings were replaced. *paint was resprayed at some point. original color. THIS IS A NON AC CAR but has every other option. POWER EVERYTHING including power seats and side tilt steering wheel. This car isnt perfect and I will list its problems to the best of my ability. *the heater coil is blown out so theres no heat. I only drive the car in the summer so this was never a problem. the heater coil was bypassed to avoid leaking into the cabin. *the floorboards are starting to rot out and have a small hole and will probably need to be replaced to make this care perfect. *The radiator has a very small leak somewhere but usually isnt an issue. I just check the level and add whatever is missing. Usually about a cup worth if you drive it all weekend. MINOR *some minor dings and scratches on the surface but the body and paint are in good condition. *minor oil leak (usually a few drops in the garage floor from when it sits for a while. VERY MINOR *Stock clock stopped working *Window weather stripping is dry rotted and needs to be replaced for cosmetic purposes. *the door panels are a bit weathered and cracked *some minor pitting of chrome parts but this is expected from a 50 year old car. Other then what I listed everything works perfectly. All Guages and bells and whistles still work. Shes a buy and drive home kind of car. Runs and Drives perfect!!! I CAN SEND MORE PICTURES FOR SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY!!! GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY BIDDING!!! |

Updated Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator caught in new spy photos
Mon, Oct 26 2020Face-lifted Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator prototypes were spotted in the wild Monday wearing fairly extensive camouflage disguising updated bodywork for the 2022 model year. Ford's two body-on-frame offerings (BOFferings? Nope. Pretend that didn't happen.) are both due for a nip and tuck, and with GM's fresh slate of full-sizers now available, the timing couldn't be more perfect. There's not much we can discern from this Navigator prototype. The camo does a good job of masking whatever Lincoln has in store for the nose, but the tailgate has some discernible updates, including a significantly more pronounced recess for the license plate that also appears to be mounted higher on the hatch. This would likely indicate that the rear lighting scheme is getting an overhaul, as there doesn't appear to be enough room between the lower edge of the glass and the plate for the current scheme to be preserved. The Expedition, on the other hand, has quite a bit going on. For starters, this prototype is not sporting the chrome-and-polish look we've come to associate with these often-blingy SUVs. Instead, we see a set of Goodyear Wrangler all-terrains on what appear to be 18" wheels, which are positively dwarfed by the turbine-style wheels on the Lincolns. Leaning even harder into the off-road theme, this prototype is not wearing the scalloped front air dam seen on other Expeditions. While it may have been removed for testing purposes, its absence (or replacement) would certainly do wonders for the big SUV's approach angle. Elsewhere, we can see what appear to be a new set of tail lights, and it would be safe to assume based on the camo that we'll see new front and rear bumper treatments. We can also see a bit of the Expedition's interior, and there are quite a few things to note on this front. For starters, the prominent, vertically oriented infotainment screen takes after the Mustang Mach-E's unit. This is significant not only on spec, but also because it signals that the Expedition's interior will be departing more significantly from that of the F-150. Related Video:
Ford reveals Fiesta ST race car, points at road ahead for bigger things in Global RallyCross
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The 2014 Ford Fiesta ST doesn't go on sale until this summer, but fans of Global RallyCross will be able to catch the car in action before then. Announced ahead of the Chicago Auto Show, the Fiesta ST will be the car run by Ford GRC teams this season, and the model on display in Chicago will be the racecar built by Swedish tuner OlsbergsMSE driven by Tanner Foust and Brian Deegan. Ken Block and his newly renamed Hoonigan Racing Division will also be competing in the Fiesta ST.
The 2013 GRC season has not been announced yet, but the venues will also include the summer X Games events in Brazil, Spain, Germany and, of course, Los Angeles. Ford announced that it will be the sole automotive sponsor of this year's summer X Games, and it will be looking to bring home a gold medal this year after Block placed silver last year.
In other Ken Block- and Ford-related news, another Chicago debut will be a tuned Focus ST called the TrackSTer project. Built in cooperation with Block, Ford and automotive tuner fifteen52, the TrackSTer will get plenty of styling, performance and handling upgrades. Some of the add-ons include a performance exhaust and short-throw shifter from Ford Racing, a rebuilt engine, upgraded components such as the limited-slip differential, intercooler, engine controller and clutch as well as upgraded brakes.
Ford reveals automated Fusion Hybrid
Thu, 12 Dec 2013Autonomous cars may still be in their infancy, but more and more big names in the auto industry are diving in head first. Nissan is already making strides with a semi-autonomous Leaf EV and General Motors is planning to offer semi-autonomous tech by 2020. And then there's Google, doing its thing with a fleet of Toyota Prius. Now, Ford is showing off its latest automated effort, a driverless Fusion Hybrid.
Partnering with the University of Michigan (Go Blue!) and State Farm Insurance, the project is part of Ford's Blueprint for Mobility, the company's plan for transportation beyond 2025. "The Ford Fusion Hybrid automated vehicle represents a vital step toward our vision for the future of mobility," Chairman Bill Ford said. "We see a future of connected cars that communicate with each other and the world around them to make driving safer, ease traffic congestion and sustain the environment."
The automated Fusion features four LiDAR infrared sensors that scan the road 2.5 million times every second, using a principle similar to the echolocation used by dolphins or bats. Using the infrared light emitted by the LiDAR, the car can draw a picture of everything within 200 feet to create a map of its surroundings. According to Ford, the sensors are able to tell the difference between a paper bag and a small animal from a football field away.
