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 GT to be revived, Le Mans battle upcoming

Sun, 05 Oct 2014

Ford dominated the 24 Hours of Le Mans from 1966 to 1969, scoring four consecutive wins. Wouldn't it be great if the Blue Oval could go back to France for the 50th anniversary of that performance and show it can still compete in international endurance racing? Actually, the latest rumors indicate that could be exactly the case, and the car taking that checkered flag could be another revival of the Ford GT.
As the rumblings go, Ford wants to use a new supercar to take another crack at Le Mans, after considering some other possible alternatives. Substantiating these musings are reports that a Blue Oval rep was reportedly on hand for a recent meeting about 2016 GTE-Class rules, according to Road and Track. That would put the new GT in the same racing class as the Corvette, Ferrari 458 Italia, Porsche 911 and others.
It's not all about racing, though. If you win on Sunday, you want something to be able to sell on Monday. The revived GT is reportedly still a mid-engine supercar, but the exact engine is unclear. It's possible that it could even be shown or announced at the Detroit auto show in January, according to Motor Trend.

Airbag recall widens to include BMW, Chrysler, Ford and Toyota

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

The recall of faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata has exploded today to grow to seven automakers. In most cases, only models in certain high-humidity regions were affected because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found in its investigation that moisture played a roll in determining whether there would be a problem. However, some companies opted for national campaigns. The exact number of affected models for these campaigns isn't yet known at this time.
BMW is recalling an undisclosed number of 325i, 325Xi, 330i and 330Xi models from the 2001 through 2005 model years and the 2001-2006 model year versions of the 325Ci and 330Ci for the driver side and passenger side inflators. Only vehicles currently registered in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands are covered under this recall.
Neither Chrysler's filing with NHTSA nor its press release list the specific models affected, but a company spokesperson told Autoblog that at this time it only covers the driver and passenger side inflators for the 2006 Dodge Charger in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands

Entry-level F-150 now offers SuperCrew, Sport Package

Thu, 29 Aug 2013

Ford has made a few notable tweaks to the lower end of its F-150 lineup, giving customers a more affordable version of the four-door SuperCrew body style. The popular SuperCrew could previously only be had on XLT models and above, but Ford has announced that 2014 F-150s with the base STX trim can get the more versatile body.
The STX SuperCrew brings the price of a four-door F-150 down from $34,525 to $33,145. Like the XLT SuperCrew, the STX will be available with the choice of a 5.5- or 6.5-foot bed, while a 5.0-liter V8 can replace the base 3.7-liter V6 for $4,425. Ford has not released pricing on the different bed lengths yet, but opting for the 6.5-foot bed on the XLT raises the price $1,240 and forces buyers into the 5.0-liter V8. We'd expect a similar arrangement on the STX.
The other big news for fans of affordable pickups is the addition of an STX Sport Package on the base-level truck. It adds 20-inch wheels, black exterior accents, black-and-gray cloth seats and decals on the truck's box. The Sport Package is available on all three of the STX's body styles, with Ford listing the price as $980 with current discounts.
