I've decided to sell my 1986 Ford Thunderbird Base model that only has 85,720 Actual Miles!! I bought this car last year as a back up vehicle but no longer need it since I purchased another car. Comes equipped with an EFI 5.0 that runs great! Power windows; power locks (not working-needs Actuators?); power both seats; power antenna; cruise; tilt; cold a/c; hot heat; keyless entry...manual sunroof that was installed by previous owner (does NOT leak). Has been painted a few years ago by a previous owner, does have a few chips and scratches but shows/shines well! Absolutely NO rust! Non smokers! The covers were put on the front seats only to protect them...driver seat has a couple small tears right next to where your left leg would rest, probably from sliding in and out of the car. The passenger seat is in excellent condition. The stock stereo does work but the left front chanel goes in and out sometimes. The headliner around the sunroof has tears in it from probably being pulled too tight when it was installed??? Please keep in mind that this Bird IS 28+ years old and does have a few "Bumps and Bruises"...I try to explain any/all problems the best way I know how. If you have ANY questions, please ask before placing bid. The fuel gauge and temp gauge do not work, I think it may be the voltage regulator in the instrument cluster, but not sure. I just fill it up when the Tripometer reaches 300 or so miles...it has the 22 gallon tank! Previous owner removed the cats and ran a true dual exhaust which sounds pretty good. It does shift kinda hard from 3rd to 4th...has been like this since I bought it from the previous owner. I did do a pan drop on the transmission, change the filter and fluid about 800 miles ago. The Dashboard has cracks from aging outdoors...The tires have around 80% tread left, and the brakes stop this Bird with NO pulling. It could use a front end alignment, the steering wheel is not quite centered and it pulls just a little to the right, but there is no uneven wear on the front tires. Like I said before, this T-Bird runs great and could easily be used as a daily driver.

Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company

Thu, 03 Oct 2013

That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.

eBay Find of the Day: Mk1 Ford GT40 with interesting history

Sat, 03 May 2014

You might expect a rare Ford GT40 to cross the block at some sort of prestigious auto auction from RM or Gooding, not show up on eBay for over $2 million. However, that's exactly what we have here. The seller claims the car is a late-build Mk1 GT40 from 1969, and it's currently owned by the director of the Hublot watch company in Switzerland.
According to the listing, GT40 #P1108 started life as Mk1 car that was built from factory spares in 1969 and was first sold in 1971. However, the auction is somewhat confusing. According to an image in its gallery, the vehicle was actually built from one of the seven spare Mk3 tubs when production of the iconic racers ended.
This GT40 was never built as a racecar - it lived on the streets its whole life. After assembly finished, it was sent to Germany and was eventually registered for the road. The first owner kept the car until 2005 and sold it with 7,300 miles on the odometer. The current owner bought it in 2012.

Shelby to auction 2012 GT350 No. 1 in Vegas

Thu, 19 Sep 2013

With Shelby preparing to wind down production of its brutal GT350, a 624-horsepower Mustang that's meant to go up against the Roush Stage 3 in the world of tuned Ford ponycars, the Las Vegas-based tuner is looking to give back to one lucky customer. It'll auction off the very first GT350 ever produced, at the 2013 Barrett-Jackson auction in Las Vegas, a three-day event that runs from September 26 through September 28.
The GT350 is a monster, with a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 that's been tuned well past 600 horsepower in a time when Ford's own Shelby-branded GT500 barely reached 550 horsepower. The GT350 is much louder than Ford's effort, too, both visually and audibly. The wide body look isn't what we'd call conventional, but on a car that sounds and goes like this, something extreme is needed. According to Shelby American's vice president of production, Gary Davis, "Carroll was very excited about the new wide body option, so that was included on this car. It's the first 2012 GT350 serial number from our anniversary year. It is a very special car." Wilwood brakes, a massaged suspension, and some very fat, sticky tires add to the Shelby experience.
This particular GT350 will be lot number 750, and will cross the Barrett-Jackson stage on Sunday, September 28.
