ou are looking at a customized 1962 Ford Thunderbird that has been transformed into a sweet pro touring car. This car was built to be a driver, it gets a ton of attention at the cruises. The rear wheel-wells were radiused and the trim was removed from the rear quarters, making this Thunderbird look more sleek and smooth than how it rolled off the assembly in 1962. 

Vehicle Specifications:
• 1962 Ford Thunderbird 
• 10,500 miles 
• Hardtop

• C6 transmission 
• New Driveshaft and U-joints 
• 4 wheel disc breaks 
• New front wheel bearings and seals 
• Upgraded master cylinder and booster 
• New rag joints 
• New power steering pump 
• New battery

• American Racing wheels, 17 x 7 front, 20 x 8.5 rear 
• Hankook Ventus V12 EVO Tires, 225-45-17 front, 245-40-20 rear
• Rebuilt 3.50 Ford 9" rear 
• New rear wheel bearings and axle seals 

*All of this work has been done in the past six months; all these items are new, not new three years ago 

In a prior build someone built this into a hot rod and installed a fuel cell in the trunk. A brand new gas tank, filler neck, straps, and sending until will need to be installed by the new owner. Fuel gauge is not currently connected; it will work when connected to the new sending unit. 

There in no rust on the Thunderbird at all. The only imperfection on the body is a very small blister on the front passenger side of the hood. The chrome is in great shape. The vent windows have the usual pitting and there are some minor dings on some of the trim. The vehicle also includes a new set of window felts that will need to be installed by the new owner. The interior is in nice shape, the seats and headliner were redone, the door panels need attention (door arm rest specifically started to crack). Overall, this is a nice straight car with no excuses. 

I am not looking for any trades.

280-bhp Elemental RP1 revealed, now with bike-engine option

Thu, Jun 26 2014

The Elemental RP1 might be Britain's next big boutique roadster success story. Designed by a team with Formula One experience, it aims to mix road car drivability with racecar performance in a single, adaptable package weighing less than 1,000 pounds. It was first previewed a few weeks ago, but the secrecy has finally disappeared due to its upcoming debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. The backbone of the RP1 is a carbon fiber and aluminum tub onto which the front and rear subframes bolt on. Inside, it has an F1-like, feet-up driving position that allows for additional underfloor aerodynamic aids to improve downforce. Despite its hardcore nature, Elemental says that it wants the car to be very user friendly. Buyers should be able to drive the RP1 to the track, adjust it with some wrenches, go racing and drive it home. The company even claims the storage areas to either side of the engine offer enough room for a helmet and other racing gear. Hopefully, buyers don't crash, though, otherwise they might be stuck. Elemental is adding two more engine options for the RP1, as well. In addition to the previously announced tuned Ford 2.0-liter EcoBoost with 280 horsepower, buyers can also choose a upgraded version of Ford's three-cylinder 1.0-liter EcoBoost or a model aimed at pure track use with a 999cc Honda Fireblade motorcycle engine. The 2.0-liter uses a six-speed sequential manual gearbox, and a limited-slip differential and alternate gear sets are available as additional options. The first RP1s built will be pure racers for the 2015 season, and the first road cars will follow in the early summer of next year. Pricing isn't set yet, but scroll down for more details and full specs of Britain's latest feather light car for road and track. Introducing the Elemental Rp1 Press Release: 23/6/2014 British sports car manufacturer, Elemental Motor Company Limited, today released further details of their new and innovative, road legal track car, the Rp1. The Rp1 is an open top, road legal, mid engined sports car that incorporates state of the art road and race car technologies. Designed, Engineered and Built by a team with decades of experience in the Formula One and Supercar industries, it brings the concept of a road legal track car firmly into the 21st Century. The Rp1 will be revealed to the public for the first time, this weekend, at the 2014 Goodwood Festival of Speed, where it will located in the Moving Motor Show tent "First Glance" display.

2015 Ford F-150 enters production

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

Ford has given the F-150 a dramatic makeover for 2015, switching to an aluminum body that helps reduce weight by about 700 pounds. Because the truck is dramatically different, Ford also had to change the way it makes the F-150, so we went inside its sprawling factory in Dearborn, MI, this week to see the Blue Oval's new manufacturing techniques in action.
The company has added 850 jobs at the site and upgraded its stamping and tool and die facilities. The body shop is also modernized, and it has been fitted with 500 new robots that join the structures together. The first 2015 F-150 rolled off the line on Tuesday, and the trucks will begin arriving in dealerships in December. Get a closer look at the F-150's unique assembly process in our video.
