Please take the time to look over all 24 photos that I have here on the auction. I have even put this car up on a lift to photo the undercarriage of the car to show the solid integrity of it. I have many more photos available should any prospective buyer want them. Just call me and ask for them. This Thunderbird is in turn key and drive home and enjoy immediately condition. It is not professionally restored, but has had many items either rebuilt or replaced recently and they are as follows: Engine, Transmission, Motor Mounts, Transmission Cooling Lines, Brakes, Wheel Cylinders, Radiator, Fuel Pump, Generator, Regulator, Springs, Ball Joints, Tie Rod Ends, A-Frame Bushings, Stabilizer Links, Shock Absorbers, Exhaust System, Universal Joints, Padded Dash, seats recovered & trunk upholstered in black carpet. This T-Bird has just been completely serviced including fresh oil and oil filter change, new air filter, new gas filter, chassis lubrication, to have the car ready for the road to enjoy. An aftermarket AM/FM Cassette radio was installed and works but has very low volume. Original radio goes with the car. The horn, wipers, heater, headlights, taillights, stop lights, turn signals and interior lights all work. Back up lights don't work. All power windows work but the rear windows need some assistance going up and down due to the age. Remember this is a 54 year old car. The tires are Universal 8.00-14 wide whites. Front tread is good, rear tread is fair and spare is new and has never been on the road. Data plate reveals that the body is code 63A (Thunderbird Hardtop) Paint is Code A (Raven Black) Trim is 76 (Black & Grey) Transmission Code 4 (Cruise-O-Matic) Automatic & Rear Axle is Code 3 (3:10 to 1 Ratio) Y Code in the Vin# reveals that this Thunderbird was built at the Wixom, Michigan Plant on February 26th and was equipped with a 352 cubic inch engine with a 4-barrel carburetor. The engine and transmission are fresh rebuilt, however engine has C6MEA on the block side indicating it may be a 1966 Block. Transmission has a red tag on the side that reads 352-P9LAH. Please check out the picture of the engine under the valve cover. It is fresh and clean as also is the transmission. 
This Thunderbird is priced fair and reasonable considering the amount of money invested in new and rebuilt parts. It is not professionally restored, nor is it an Arizona car, but for a northeast car, it is in great shape with only minor evidence of some rust issues having been addressed. It appears to have been undercoated when new saving it from serious rust. Remember this is a 54 year old car. It is being sold in AS-IS condition with no actual, expressed or implied warranty or guarantee of any kind. The day you buy the car it then becomes your car. There is no refunds or rebates. If any prospective buyer has any questions as to the integrity or condition of this car, then I encourage and welcome the opportunity and will be proud to show you this car in person by appointment before the auction ends. My summary and description of this car is based on a complete and thorough inspection, as well as servicing and driving the car, as well as conversation with the previous owner. I did not buy this car new back in 1960 so I can't give you a detailed history dating back to then. I can give you this detailed description based with lots of information on the car. The photos and feedback rating speak for themselves.
Please check my 100% positive feedback rating and buy with confidence.  I have accurately and honestly described this car to the best of my knowledge. Feel free to ask any and all questions on the car. I have a clean Pennsylvania title in hand for this car. The title does show actual mileage of 155,000.  There is no 6th digit on the speedometer to verify this statement of 155.  The speedometer shows 55,871.  I will let the buyer be the judge there. The condition and vast array of rebuilt and replaced parts especially the drivetrain is the huge selling point of this car. The title will be and must be properly transferred in to the new owners name by a licensed Pennsylvania notary. Terms of sale are as follows: The most accepted, preferred and encouraged method of payment is FUNDS IN HAND and a local pickup of the car. Again it is in turn key and drive home condition. Anything else will need to be discussed with me first. Funds in hand is the easiest way to complete the sale, and you leave with title and your car. I am not interested in any trades of any kind. If a buyer requests shipping it will be their financial responsibility. I will be happy to recommend previously used shippers. I will also be happy to reasonably assist in the appointment set-up, pick-up and loading of the car. Again to be crystal clear should any prospective buyer have any questions whatsoever as to the integrity or condition of this classic Thunderbird then I welcome and encourage the opportunity to show you this car in person by appointment before the auction ends to answer any questions that you may have.  My contact number is at the top and bottom of this ad to make it very easy for any prospective buyer to reach me at. So lastly any questions at all on this T-Bird please don't hesitate to CONTACT JEFF AT 570 977 0741. Thanks and good luck !

Ford F-150 could be affected by tornado-damaged supplier in S.C.

Wed, Apr 22 2020

The disruption caused by a tornado that severely damaged a South Carolina auto-parts plant and killed a contract security guard last week could be felt by more automakers than just Ford and affect more than just its best-selling F-Series pickup, which is due for an update. And there’s still no estimate for when operations might resume at the plant. The Detroit Free Press reports that the BorgWarner plant in Seneca, near Greenville, makes transfer cases for F-150 and Super Duty pickups, the Ford Explorer and Expedition, Transit cargo vans, and Lincoln Navigator and Aviator SUVs. ItÂ’s also a supplier for the Ram 1500 and Toyota Tundra trucks. Transfer cases shift power from the transmission to the front and rear axles in four-wheel-drive vehicles. BorgWarner says it still has no update for when it might partially or fully resume operations. The tornado that ripped through the area in the western part of the state on April 13 tore the roof, walls and signage off the factory and killed a 77-year-old contract worker when the security building he was sheltering in collapsed. Only four or five others were inside the plant, which has been idled because of the coronavirus outbreak, when the tornado struck. In an SEC filing on Friday, Ford said it has sent employees to the site to help BorgWarner and assess the damage to FordÂ’s tooling. “Initial assessments indicate that the Ford tooling was not materially damaged in this incident,” Ford said in the filing. “We do not have sufficient information to estimate when the facility will be back on-line or whether or the extent to which this incident will impact our plans to resume production of four-wheel drive and all-wheel drive vehicles.” A Fiat Chrysler spokeswoman also told the Freep the company was working with BorgWarner on recovery plans. A Toyota spokesman told Autoblog that "we are collaborating with BorgWarner to help restore production for transfer cases for Tundra assembly. We are confident that theyÂ’ll fully recover over time." Like other automakers, Ford shut down production at its U.S. plants last month as a precaution against the coronavirus pandemic. But Ford hasnÂ’t yet said when it plans to reopen its factories. FCA is targeting May 4 to resume production. Models like the F-150 and Lincoln Navigator are major sources of profit for Ford, which estimated it lost $2 billion in the first quarter.

2014 Holman & Moody 50th Anniversary TdF Ford Mustang

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

If you're a fan of Ford racing history, a Mustang worshiper or even just an avid follower of our yearly SEMA coverage, you may have heard the back story on the Race Red Mustang you see above. Back in 1964, Holman & Moody was tapped by the English Alan Mann Racing Team to race-prep three Mustangs for competition in the incredibly arduous 4,000-mile Tour de France Automobile rally. Competing mainly against Jaguar MkII saloons over 10 days and 17 stages, the H&M Mustangs took the top two places in the Touring class and the first-ever racing win for Ford's pony car.
Though the history of that first Mustang win hasn't been incredibly well known here in the States, the subsequent decades have seen plenty of racy versions of the car come and go. Last year at the SEMA show, we covered the brief debut of this living tribute to that piece of racing lore, the Holman & Moody 50th Anniversary TdF Mustang.
This limited-edition Mustang represents a kind of new venture for H&M, as the legendary racing shop has spent the last few decades earning its keep largely by restoring vintage racing cars. The urge to get back into the world of Ford and Mustang was powerful, however, what with the car's 50th anniversary looming and the current generation of 'Stang just about out the door.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST

Tue, 15 Oct 2013

I'm not overly inclined to professional jealousy, as a rule. Sure, I go a bit green around the eyes when Ramsey draws the 911 GT3 trip to Weissach, Harley is tapped-in to drive a completely stunning Porsche 911 by Singer, or, you know, Drew Phillips gets to shoot a Lamborghini Veneno in the middle of a desert like some sort of sheik. I hate you guys...
Honestly though, one of the new car events that dug me the most, was when our Steven J. Ewing got to fling the Ford Fiesta ST around some hot corner of Europe. What goes around comes around, I suppose, as Mr. Ewing himself espoused an envious nature of the Focus ST trip that came before.
The good news in all this covetous intra-office behavior? All the cars mentioned, and specifically the Fiesta ST, are just wonderful to drive. I can say that with more confidence than ever now, having joined Ford for a good bit of Fiesta-flinging myself. In my case, the locale was slightly more pedestrian (Michigan not Portugal), and the car in question was the five-door version of the Fiesta ST that we get here in The States, as opposed to the three-door number they get across the pond.
