1971 Ford Thunderbird Base Sedan 4-door 7.0l on 2040-cars
Midland, Texas, United States
Have a nice 1971 for Thunderbird for sale. Was planning on fixing it up and cruising it, but just don't have the time. Need the money to fix up my truck. Purchased it last summer at an estate sale in Nebraska. The owner was a retired mechanic that bought the car new and drove it until he couldn't drive anymore and the car was parked in the late 80's early 90's in a barn. There it sat for 20+ years. I purchased it and had it taken to a local shop where they rebuilt the carburetor and cleaned the fuel lines and tank. It started, ran, and drove from there to my parents house awaiting me to come pick it up. This was last fall. Now it cranks over, fires, but will not stay running for longer than 2 minutes. Not sure if it is a timing issue or vacuum leak. Might even be something else, but I don't have any experience with old car repair. While in Nebraska the old brake lines cracked and car will no longer hold brake fluid. It also has some rust behind the rear quarter panels, but overall the body is in good shape and solid. The interior is amazing!! It has the original 429 Thunderjet Big Block V8. The cousin to the Boss 429 and 429 Cobra Jet. Kaase Engines uses these blocks to make their Boss 429 Racing Engines. This TBird is loaded with options. Power Windows, Power Drivers Seat, Cruise Control (buttons on steering wheel), Automatic Climate Control, and many more. Most I didn't even know were available in 1971. $500 deposit and contact me to arrange pick up (payment) of car within 48 hours after auction end. Will need to have car picked up within 2 weeks of auction end. Car does not run and will need to be towed from Midland, Texas. I will release Title once the payment has posted to my account. I have clear Nebraska Title, Registration, and Insurance on the T-Bird. |

Shelby to auction 2012 GT350 No. 1 in Vegas
Thu, 19 Sep 2013With Shelby preparing to wind down production of its brutal GT350, a 624-horsepower Mustang that's meant to go up against the Roush Stage 3 in the world of tuned Ford ponycars, the Las Vegas-based tuner is looking to give back to one lucky customer. It'll auction off the very first GT350 ever produced, at the 2013 Barrett-Jackson auction in Las Vegas, a three-day event that runs from September 26 through September 28.
The GT350 is a monster, with a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 that's been tuned well past 600 horsepower in a time when Ford's own Shelby-branded GT500 barely reached 550 horsepower. The GT350 is much louder than Ford's effort, too, both visually and audibly. The wide body look isn't what we'd call conventional, but on a car that sounds and goes like this, something extreme is needed. According to Shelby American's vice president of production, Gary Davis, "Carroll was very excited about the new wide body option, so that was included on this car. It's the first 2012 GT350 serial number from our anniversary year. It is a very special car." Wilwood brakes, a massaged suspension, and some very fat, sticky tires add to the Shelby experience.
This particular GT350 will be lot number 750, and will cross the Barrett-Jackson stage on Sunday, September 28.
Mustang pinball game will feature art by Ford GT designer
Fri, 13 Dec 2013To celebrate 50 years of Mustang, Ford and Stern Pinball are collaborating on a new pinball machine that will feature the muscle car in all its glory, Polygon reports. Even better, Camilo Pardo, the guy who designed the Ford GT, will provide art for the table; Tanner Foust, Top Gear USA host and professional driver, will handle narrating duties; and a Sony Music soundtrack spanning five decades will provide the tunes.
"The Mustang is one of the most iconic, American cars ever made... What better way to celebrate 50 years of Mustang than with the launch of the Ford Mustang pinball game?" says Stern Pinball CEO Gary Stern.
Watch the promotional trailer for the upcoming Mustang pinball machine below, which will have to hold you over until pricing and availability are announced in early 2014.
Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue
Fri, 22 Feb 2013It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.
