Offered for sale is this nice original 1966 Ford Thunderbird Town Landau Edition with 89k Original Miles.  It is not a $1500.00 or $15,000 dollar car, If seeking perfection than it may be a good idea to check cars in the $12,000 and Up range. It's had  a lot of care and money invested in maintenance to it, over a car with shiny new paint possibly hiding rust and filler and not running or running right. We planned to keep it but also own a 1962 and choosing between the two, we would like to keep our Bullet Bird. The main reason for selling is we no longer have room for it in the garage and don't want to keep it outside. It is originally from California and included is the 1966 Black and Yellow California Plates and Dealer Frame from Marquis Motors of Mission Viejo. It also has the Owner's Manual. We have lost track of some of the receipts that came with the car, but I have most of the recent ones (see photos) that add up to quite some money spent on an Entire New Brake System, This Includes The Proportioning Valve, Wheel Bearing Repack, Seals, Tie Rod Ends, Rear Differential, Transmission Service Including Pan Gasket Seal, Alternator, Belts and Hoses, Thermostat and Coolant Temperature Sensor, Headlight Switch, All Tail Light Bulbs Replaced, Battery and Tires Are One Year Old with about 96 Percent Tread. I am not going to give you the Little Old Lady Who Drove It Only On Sundays Story because that would be B.S. Although it has low mileage and we are the 3rd Owners. The Previous Owner drove it less than 800 miles over the course of about the last 3 years of ownership. Clear and Clean Washington Title In My Name, Registered as a Collector Car No Tabs Ever Again in This State. 390 V-8 Starts every time and very easily with No Smoke and No Ponds Of Fluids Underneath. Glass and Seals are Good, The Gauges, Dash Lights Instruments, Original AM Radio Work, Manual Windows and Seats function as do Wipers, and Door Lock Button On Console. To make it really nice I would say a Paint Job (above the driver's side rear wheel skirt some clown scraped it when parked in Downtown Seattle and it was fixed, that is shown in a picture) fix the small tears to the driver's seat and some adhesive on the headliner, also the horn isn't working..noticed a couple fuses missing and I have one of those T Levers that's out of the console in the Glove Box, and the Swing-Away part of the steering is not doing that so the steering stays in the driving position, just some small things, but this ride is ready to go, Drive it Home it's runs and shifts the way it should, or I can work with you on your choice of Shipping Co. getting it to you, from my door to yours or I can get it to a Shipping Co. of your choice. We really don't have to sell it and again I am not entertaining $1500.00 offers and have posted it with a low and reasonable reserve.  To find something like this for less than $5000.00 you can probably find it on Craigslist sitting in a back yard for 10 years with the old "It Ran When It Was Parked" story. So If You are looking for a classy ride for not too much money that is a driver than here it is, and remember it comes with receipts from shops for a lot of work done, not a "Shade Tree Mechanic". Only posting it this one time, if it doesn't sell more than likely it gets what it needs and stored  properly.

What an Atlas-based Ford F-150 might look like

Thu, 27 Jun 2013

Just ahead of January's Detroit Auto Show, surprising rumors pegged Ford as revealing some sort of F-150 concept, perhaps as a hurried effort to deflate some of the buzz building around General Motors' new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins, which were also making their auto show debut. Those rumblings turned out to be true, as Ford rolled into the Motor City with its Atlas concept (inset, right), touting the truck's bold styling as a precursor to the next-generation F-Series.
The show truck featured all kinds of clever details, including active wheel shutters and a front air dam that raised and lowered to improve aerodynamics while preserving off-road ability. It also had a genuinely snarly face. And it's that pugnacious snout that may well be on its way to production. The good folks at TopSpeed have worked up the plausible-looking artist's rendering above by cross-referencing the Atlas concept with what little has been revealed from recent spy shots. The look is toned-down pretty dramatically from the concept truck, but its Atlas roots are clear, with a massive three-bar grille and bracket-shaped headlamps hiding a next-generation EcoBoost engine. In the rendering, the show truck's deeply contoured hood and roofline have been ditched and larger, more traditional side mirrors have been fitted - all likely concessions in the move to production sheetmetal.
While Ford has yet to officially announce when it will unveil the 2015 F-150, all signs point to next year's Detroit Auto Show - one year after the Atlas shrugged off GM's new pickups.

As US exports top 2 million, is America becoming the world's source of cheap cars?

Mon, Feb 9 2015

North American auto production is booming with 2014 figures just shy of the of the 17.3-million vehicle record set in 2000. With more models being built on the continent, even more are being shipped overseas. Factories in the US exported 2.1 million cars last year – the highest number ever. About half of those went to Canada and Mexico, but more than ever have been heading to places like the Middle East and China. The upswing comes in part from from after-effects from the Great Recession, according to The Wall Street Journal. With a weak dollar and lower production costs after the financial crisis, building vehicles in the US was relatively cheaper and more competitive in the world. At the same time buyers around the world are going crazy for crossovers. According to the WSJ, BMW and Mercedes-Benz are already exporting the majority of their US production of these models overseas. Both automakers have also announced investments to expand production further here to send more vehicles abroad. Even Honda has been shipping more models out of the country than it imported here. There is a concern this international strength could start slowing because the dollar is strengthening against other currencies, though it's too early to know what the actual effect of this could be, according to the WSJ. "Of course, we closely watch currency exchange, but we don't make changes in production or allocation based on temporary fluctuations in the exchange rate," Ford North American boss Joe Hinrichs told the newspaper.
