For Auction today is a 1988 Ford Thunderbird. This is the favorite Thunderbird body-style of many Thunderbird fans. This is a project car, it is in need of total restoration. I have already done the following for you and the body and interior need to be done by you, in the right hands the body and interior can easily be finished out and will be a great car in the future and will be rare and valuable. I hate to let it go but I have another one to restore, a 1997 Thunderbird plus my daily car, a Mustang, and I need to get light.

New: Rebuilt engine from ATK Rebuilt Engines, rebuilt transmission, custom built with a shift kit/clutch for each gear, steering rack, belts, hoses, steering hoses, brakes, several suspension parts like control-arm bushings, alternator, PS pump, a/c compressor, radiator, evaporator and condensing coils, struts. It is a base model but it has a posi-trac rear end and rear stabilizer bar from a Thunderbird Sport.

Please read these two very important points of interest:

I am keeping this car within the Thunderbird community and want to pass it on to someone who loves it for the exact reasons that I do and someone who also believes the 1987-88 body style is among the very best of Thunderbirds. If you are looking for basic transportation, of a beater car or a college car or anything like that then please look elsewhere.

Next, I want to inform you that there is something strange "wrong" with the car. These cars with this engine and transmission, certain year ranges of Thunderbirds and Mustangs are designed to get a certain MPG range with 27 MPG on the highway being pretty much the ceiling, which isn't bad. But for some reason this car gets 30-31 MPG on the HWY. Not sure why and not complaining.

All of the above has about 30 thousand miles. Reserve is going to be set at one thousand dollars. Any questions call or text 214-554-1850 Car is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

Ford acquires Livio to bolster connectivity biz

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

Ford Motor Company has announced the acquisition of Livio, a Ferndale, MI-based software development company best known for aftermarket in-car connectivity devices, but also as a supplier of technology for proprietary systems for automakers. Livio, co-founded by Sigal and Massimo Baldini, will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Ford Global Technologies.
"With the additional expertise Livio provides us, Ford intends to continue to lead the next generation of in-car connectivity with technology advancements that give consumers more options to access their devices on the go," said Paul Mascarenas, chief technical officer and vice president, Ford Research and Innovation, in a statement.
Ford is clearly trying to beef up its in-house tech capability around telematics and device connectivity. While the Blue Oval has been a leader in these areas with SYNC and MyFord Touch in terms of getting the systems into as many cars as possible, the execution of the applications have been criticized for glitches.

Ford honors Chinese Year of the Horse with Vaughn Gittin Jr., Mustang video

Fri, Feb 27 2015

Calendar years and fiscal years tend to be the only timetables automakers concern themselves with, but that doesn't mean there isn't recognition of other measures of time. Ford has opted to observe the Chinese zodiac, largely because the Year of the Horse ended just last week. That's fortuitous timing, considering the first Ford Mustangs were making their way towards the People's Republic as celebrations were carrying on. To recognize this fact, and the end of the Year of the Horse, Ford recruited drift king Vaughn Gittin, Jr., to take a 2015 Mustang GT to the streets of Ordos City, in north-central China. It's not as dramatic as some of Ford's recent videos, like the one starring Ken Block and the Ford Focus RS, but it's pretty cool all the same. Take a look.

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.
