1961 Thunderbird Convertible, 390 Auto. This car has been in dry storeage and not driven since 1969. There is very little rust on the car. The driver side rear quarter panel has some rust behind the wheel and a small spot above the wheel. The drivers door on the seam has a very small amount and under the passenger front seat there is one small hole. The previous owner in 1968 put a 4 speed transmission in it, that transmission is not there, I have included a cruisematic transmission out of thunderbird. The orginal 390 is there. The car was taken apart prior to my purchase. It appears to be all there so far as I can tell. The bellhousing for transmission is missing. The rear seat is original, not sure if front buckets are orginal or not. The car is super straight but does need a full restoration. There is some rust in the battery tray area, probably a leaking battery. The original wiring harness that is shown in the trunk area is the wiring from under the dash. The wiring and switches for the trunk and top are all there and have not been removed.
I buy and sell several cars a year, for a car that is 52 years old this is a great car to begin with and will make someone a wonderful car to give a full restoration.
The interior door panels front and rear are there and are black. If you would like additional pics, please send me your email, if difficult to post all the pics.
This car has been in the same family of ownership since 1968 and was only driven by the family for a year or two and the owner bought a new car and thought they would restore the car and it set in dry storeage since 1969.
$750 deposit is required within 24 hours and is non refundable, Full payment within 7 days. Will sell worldwide, you are responsible for shipping.
If you would like a BUY IT NOW price, you are welcome to call me at 317 440 1278, also if you have questions. Thanks Doug

Ford's official Euro aftermarket partner Mountune coming to US
Tue, 06 Aug 2013Now that we're getting a steady stream of Ford's European offerings, the aftermarket world is finally starting to catch up as well. UK-based aftermarket tuning company, Mountune has just announced that it will be setting up shop in California to provide high-performance and racing parts for Ford vehicles including the Focus ST and Fiesta ST.
Mountune lays claim to being Ford's "official European tuning partner," and US buyers will soon have access to these parts through Ford dealerships and with a Ford Racing warranty. Speaking of Ford Racing, Mountune also says that it will be working with Ford's in-house team to develop future components for both street and track. There are no specifics as of yet for which products will be offered here, but the company plans to launch a US-specific website later this month with more information.
Ford increasing Super Duty production by 15 percent
Fri, 31 Jan 2014Ford has announced a hefty $80 million investment in its Kentucky Truck Plant, which is responsible for building the F-250, F-350, F-450 and F-550 versions of the Super Duty pickup. The influx of cash will add 350 jobs to the factory.
The investment is also good for a 15-percent increase in annual production thanks to retooling and other facility upgrades, which equates to an extra 55,000 units of production. Considering that Ford makes even more money off its Super Duty than it does on the hot-selling F-150, this could mean some serious coin to Ford's bottom line.
Hop below for the full press release from Ford on its latest investment.
2016 Ford Police Interceptor Utility shows up for duty in Chicago
Fri, Feb 13 2015The latest upgrade for the 2016 Ford Police Interceptor Utility is all set to patrol the Windy City's streets with its debut at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show. On the outside, the revised Ford police vehicle looks basically the same as the recently refreshed Explorer with a new grille and redesigned headlights. Inside, there's a restyled steering wheel and center console. Unlike the civilian model, though, the PI Utility gets heavy-duty brakes, a more robust cooling system, reinforced subframe mounts and larger diameter suspension springs for more strength. Under the hood, police forces get to choose between either a 3.7-liter V6 with 304 horsepower and 279 pound-feet of torque or a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 with 365 hp and 350 lb-ft of twist. Regardless of powertrain, these 'utes feature a six-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The transmission includes the awesome-sounding Pursuit Mode feature that switches over to more aggressive shifts when it detects harder driving to properly stop crime. Related Video:
