I bought this car from my daughters boyfriend. He was needing money for college last fall and wasn't in a postion to be able to work on it. He was given the car by his great grandpa who purchased it new. It has always been in the north Glendora, CA area. Stored inside most of the time so the paint is extremely good for the year.

Grandpa was a L.A. county mechanic so it's been maintained well and the engine and rans have been rebuilt. It drives great on the freeway at 80 and handles good. (kind of a pillowy ride honestly) It's currently insured, registered and driven to work occasionally, I'd say it could be driven across the country but the wipers need some attention first. (on these T-birds they were run off the power steering and they won't shut off. I think the valve is staying shut so it won't shut off the fluid). Tires and brakes are good we've just had the Brake booster and master cylinder rebuilt locally here in San Diego.

Paint is original except for a couple of spots. ( I've included pictures of these areas so you can see for yourself). windshield has a crack top to bottom right in the center. (not in eye's view, but it's there). Seats, headliner and carpet are nice.(drivers door panel inner plastic where it mounts is cracked but with some patience should be repairable) I've taken quite a few pictures but if you want to see more let me know. I have 5 other classics so could use the room and would like to see someone enjoy it. Good luck thanks for looking! Greg

I have a clear title and can pick you up at the San diego airport so you can drive it home or coordinate shipping if you'd rather go that route.

Ford confirms launch of new Tourneo vans and Ecosport in Europe for Geneva

Sun, 24 Feb 2013

We've already seen plenty of what the Geneva Motor Show will have in store for us in less than two weeks, but most of the confirmed debuts that were announced so far have generally been luxury or performance cars. Ford, on the other hand, will be showing off a couple of its new family-friendly models for European buyers to enjoy.
On the larger side of things, the full range of Tourneo vans (shown above) will be on display, including the introduction of the new Tourneo Courier model, but Ford will also be showing off the all-new EcoSport crossover, which is based on the automaker's Global B platform and will be positioned beneath the Kuga, better known here as the Escape. The subcompact EcoSport was originally unveiled at the Beijing Motor Show last April.

Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts

Tue, 23 Jul 2013

Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).

Ford F-100 'Snakebit' shown off by Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed at SEMA

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Ford, along with KISS bassist Gene Simmons and his wife, Shannon Tweed, used SEMA as a backdrop to pull the covers off Snakebit, a 1956 Ford F-100 pickup truck that's been updated with Shelby Mustang-derived styling bits and a 5.4-liter supercharged V8 engine. All 550 horsepower are funneled through a six-speed manual gearbox to the rear wheels.
Underneath the custom bodywork sits a chassis that's been stretched five inches and a bed widened and bedecked with billet machined pieces that are supposed to look like wood. The 20-inch rear and 18-inch front wheels ape those of past Shelby Mustang models. The interior is swathed in two-tone leather with a bench seat designed to look - try to act surprised - like a Shelby Mustang.
Like what you see? Bidding for the truck will take place in 2014 at an unspecified Barrett-Jackson event (we'd assume Scottsdale). Proceeds will be used to help build a children's hospital in Saskatoon, in the province of Saskatchewan, where Ms. Tweed grew up. See the high-res gallery above and the press release down below for more.
