1963 Thunderbird Convertible - Nicest "driver" You Will Find - A True Must See! on 2040-cars
Lexington, North Carolina, United States
|
This beautiful Thunderbird Convertible is nearly all original and has been well cared for. As you can see, the fender skirts (which are being provided with the car) have been removed, and new 16" Real Wire Wheels (with knock-off hubs) have been added. Man, they're classy! The top was replaced a few years ago and is still in excellent condition since the car has been garage kept. It has also been repainted, and looks wonderful! You will not believe how good this car looks in real life. We get looks, smiles, waves, and thumbs-up wherever we go, and it starts conversations every time you have it in park! The interior is all original (except we did have to install a new dash cover) and in wonderful condition. Some of the bright metal in the interior is showing some pitting, but it still shines and is quite presentable. The 390 V-8, adds quite a lot to the value and collectability of the car, and it runs very well. Highway speeds of 65 - 70 mph are maintained comfortably. No doubt that higher speeds would be as well, but our comfort level is what we are advertising. Then there is the Swing-Away Steering Wheel. When demonstrating the car to others, this feature is still a very intriguing conversation piece. Feel free to call me to discuss anything at all regarding this very attractive and mature lady. She drives very nicely, and with the top down she hardly makes a sound. With the top up, she has a few rattles due to her age, but, she's as sweet as ever, and loves to show you a good time! The current issue of the Black Book for collectable cars shows the value of this car in "Fair" condition is $13,500, and in "Good" condition it is $23,500. NADA shows it even higher. We believe our car would be classified as "Good." But our reserve is closer to "Fair." We think this is your opportunity to get a steal! For details we might have left out, please call 336-239-4263 anytime between 6AM and 9PM Eastern. And, thanks for looking. Happy bidding! |

Ford celebrating 80 years of Aussie utes as it prepares to shutter Oz manufacturing
Wed, 26 Feb 2014Ford is ending Australian production after 90 years in 2016, and with it may go perhaps the most iconic vehicles in its auto market - the ute. Car-based pickup trucks like the Ford Ranchero and Chevrolet El Camino were always more of a curiosity than a true market force here, but in Australia, they have long proven hugely popular.
As the legend goes, Ford invented the niche after a farmer's wife had asked Ford Australia's managing director for a more utilitarian car. Her request was simple: "My husband and I can't afford a car and a truck but we need a car to go to church on Sunday and a truck to take the pigs to market on Monday. Can you help?"
Ford's design team came up with a two-passenger, enclosed, steel coupe body with glass windows and a steel-paneled, wooden-frame load area in the rear. The sides of the bed were blended into the body to make it look more unified, and to keep costs down, the front end and interior were based on the Ford Model 40 five-window coupe. Power came from a V8 with shifting chores handled by a three-speed manual. Within a year, the new vehicle was ready, and production began in 1934. Lead designer Lewis Bandt christened it the coupe-utility.
Ford recalling 65k Fusions from 2014 and 2015 because key can be removed
Tue, 18 Nov 2014Ford is recalling an estimated 64,869 examples of the 2014-2015 Fusion, Fusion Energi and Fusion Hybrid in North America because the key can be removed when the vehicle isn't in Park under certain conditions. Specifically, the campaign covers 56,479 units in the US, 6,048 in Canada and 2,342 in Mexico, according to the automaker's tally on November 11.
Ford says a programming problem in the instrument cluster means that the key can be removed 30 minutes after the ignition is turned off, even if the transmission is not in Park. The situation where this could happen seems quite limited, and the company is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the issue. However, the fault puts the vehicle out of compliance with federal regulations covering theft protection and rollaways, and must be repaired.
The fix is easy: Ford will reprogram the instrument cluster at no cost to consumers. According to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker in an email to Autoblog, "We will notify customers the week of January 5th." Scroll down to read Ford's announcement.
