Great project Thunderbird. Clean title and current registration with original Black/yellow license plates. Body 63A, Color F, Trim 52, Date 20B, DSO 71, Axle 1, Trans 4 . Factory power windows, power driver seat, power door locks, I started on this project and thought I'd end up with a very nice fun driver. Then I found a 1964 Thunderbird convertible red on red with white top. I am selling my hardtop so I can devote my time to the convertible. When I bought the hardtop the brakes didn't work at all and fluid leaked at hoses and cylinders. The cooling system would not hold water and the belts looked older then the car. I started replacing and repairing what it would take to move the car and run the engine/drive train. What follows is a list of things replaced and or rebuilt. New rear brake shoes, new rear brake cylinders, new rear brake hardware (self adjusters and springs), new rear brake hose, and machined drums. In the front a new 1970 Ford dual master cylinder and proportioning valve was installed. The front drum spindles have been replaced with disc brake spindles and calipers/rotors from a 1965 Thunderbird with new grease seals and overhaul of both calipers, machining rotors and new pads. The wheels have been change to 1965 Thunderbird wheels to fit over the disc brakes. The front end has new ball joints, A arm bushings/shafts, strut bushings, sway bar links/and mounts, new shocks. The radiator has been recored with made in California new core and rebuilt surge tank. New radiator hoses and new belts. The engine has new timing chain and gears, new water pump , new fuel pump, rebuilt newer style alternator with updated harness. The car had add on air conditioning installed at some time in its life and air is a good thing but I prefer the factory look and fit. All the A/C brackets and alternator brackets have been changed to original factory brackets from a 1964 Thunderbird with factory air along with original style compressor. I have all the parts to change over the interior to be factory correct look and fit but have not installed the interior parts as of yet and it all comes with the car. Granted the car will need more work to make it that fun very nice driver but it has a good start. Auction winner is responsible for pick up of vehicle (not driveable). The car is sold with no warranty as is. I will assist with towing or shipping.

Ford, GM to collaborate on 9- and 10-speed transmissions
Mon, 15 Apr 2013Back in October, there were reports that General Motors and Ford Motor Company were hard at work co-developing new nine- and ten-speed automatic transmissions, and now both automakers have confirmed this joint operation. While there are no specific vehicles mentioned to receive either transmission, a collaborative press release issued by GM and Ford mention that the transmission will be designed for front- and rear-wheel-drive cars, crossovers, trucks and SUVs.
These aren't the first powertrain components developed jointly between these cross-town rivals, either. The six-speed automatic currently used in vehicles like the Ford Edge, Ford Fusion, Chevrolet Cruze and Chevrolet Equinox was engineered in a similar fashion. As is the case with this existing transmission, both automakers will assist in the design, development and testing of the new transmissions, but each will build its own units in its own factories. Scroll down for the official press release.
Watch the Hennessey Ford GT makes its record run at Texas Mile
Wed, 27 Mar 2013We said they'd probably be out with an official video, we did not lie. The Hennessey-powered camouflage Ford GT sat at one end of the runway at the Texas Mile sitting still. At the other end of the runway it had broken its own speed record, the twin-turbo 5.7-liter V8 pushing the aerodynamic supercar up to 267.6 miles per hour, a 4.3-mph improvement over the old mark.
There's not much in the video you haven't already seen, this just makes it official. That said, who doesn't want to see a twin-turbo Ford GT set an incredible speed record? You can watch it below.
