Available for addition to your Classic Ford Collection is a super low mileage 1975 Thunderbird in a very attractive red with black interior combo. 1975 was the 20th anniversary for the Thunderbird ! This Bird was brought from a Thunderbird enthusiast that had it in proper storage. This car has only 13,xxx miles on the all original and powerful (? !) 460ci engine and automatic transmission. The body wears 80+% of it's original paint. The hood was, from the best we can tell, the only thing that has been repainted due to being "egged" when the car was new. The passenger door skin is dented but has no paint cracking (looks like someone heavy leaned on door to close it and bowed the panel) . You may be able to push it out if the inside door trim panel is removed. The hood has some age cracking and clouding in it that is visible only upon close inspection. The second area of mention is a small chip the size of a pencil eraser on the top of the rear quarter panel just behind the drivers door. The beautiful example of a 1975 Thunderbird has been examined by a quallified automative service technician and is ready to drive anywhere. The Technician did suggest a set of plug wires due to them being the OE 1975 factory wires (still numbered) but we hated to change anything that was not a must on such a low mileage example. All fluids have been changed and the carburetor has been rebuilt. A new set of tires were installed due to age. Power windows, Door Locks, Cruise, and all work as designed as well as all other accessories. The Air Cond. worked great when put in storage, but may need to be top'd off this spring. Bid now to own this Rare low mile example of old American iron. Please contact for additional information needed.

All the details on Plug In 2014 electric vehicle conference you could ever want

Wed, Aug 6 2014

One of the best parts of the Plug In 2014 Conference in San Jose, CA last week was getting to listen in on thoughts about the state of the plug-in vehicle industry from people who have been involved with it for ages. They bristle when you call them the "Old Guard" (learned that one the hard way), but these are the people who have been through a number of ups and downs with plug-in vehicles, so they've got what we call perspective. Their knowledge was on full display in the three plenary sessions, which the Plug In Conference organizers have given us permission to share with you. Each is at least 90 minutes long, so make sure to set some time aside to enjoy the discussions after you download them (any help with making them streamable would be appreciated). Follow us below to see what we've got to offer. Opening Plenary (audio link). "The Road Ahead – Delivering on a Vision for Sustainable Transportation." Moderated by Mark Duvall (director of energy utilization at EPRI, the Electric Power Research Institute, and a long-time EV advocate), this panel featured: Jack Broadbent, Executive Officer / APCO, Bay Area Air Quality Management District Pat Romano, President & Chief Executive Officer, ChargePoint, Inc. Aaron Johnson, Senior Director, Customer Programs, Pacific Gas and Electric Company Brendan Jones, Director, EV Sales Operations & Infrastructure Deployment, Nissan North America, Inc. David W. Cash, Commissioner, MassDEP Dan Sperling, Director, Institute of Transportation Studies, University of California, Davis Highlights: Educating drivers to "get over the gas station" is a key strategy, how Level 2 and DC Fast Charging are really "a new paradigm," that there have been well over 214,000 EVs sold in US as of July 2014 and where Nissan sees huge potential for more EV sales (Northeast US and medium-size cities like St. Louis and Pittsburgh). Wednesday Morning Plenary (audio link). "Getting to the Mass Market – A Discussion of Ideas for Widespread PEV Adoption." Moderated by John Gartner, research director for smart transportation at Navigant Research.

2015 Ford Mustang vs. Camaro and Challenger [w/poll]

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

The horsepower wars are tightening among the Detroit Three, as the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Challenger are getting bigger, more powerful, and yes, more fuel efficient.
That came into sharper focus this week as more information was revealed about the most insane Challenger ever - the 707-horsepower Hellcat - followed quickly by Ford's in-depth showcase of the 2015 Mustang in Dearborn.
It's shaping up to be a golden age for enthusiasts, and what's under the hood is becoming more important than ever.
