1986 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe - 5 Speed on 2040-cars
Miami, Florida, United States
Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, Bright Canyon Red; 2.3L EFI Turbo I-4 Engine; Handling Suspension; 15x7 Cast Aluminum Wheels, 225 60 Performance tires; 5-speed manual O/D transmission; Traction–Loc axle; Air Conditioning; Lux Interior w/ Artic sports seats; power windows; premium sound system (Window sticker available) Additional Equipment: Global West caster/camber adjusters. Factory-installed mounts are non-adjustable, usually 0°-1° caster, and 0° camber, resulting in “wander” at speed, and “plow” while cornering. The adjusters allow for more positive caster, and negative camber, which greatly improves handling. Fan has manual override switch, to prevent overheating or A/C problem in summer, bumper-to-bumper traffic. Recent Maintenance: Engine rear main oil seal, clutch release bearing, rear transmission seal; cable “dumbbell” clutch linkage connector; timing belt (Gatorback) and tensioner; MSD 8.5 plug wires and boots; all engine and related hoses; reman rack & pinion 1.5 ratio steering; 24FX battery w/960 CA and stainless hold-down (original style battery no longer available); Front wheel bearings and seals Past Maintenance: New A/C compressor, dryer, custom hose with fixed orifice tube; ignition TFI module, stator, and coil; new water pump; both universal joints; rear axles, bearings and seals (vehicle has C-clip axles, which must be replaced with new bearings); brake master cylinder, calipers and rear cylinders, all flexible lines. I am the original owner, and have done all of the maintenance and repair myself, with the exception of the A/C vacuum test and initial charge, and the wheel alignment. Interior: Front seats are like new - have always been covered with terry cloth covers. All upholstery and plastic trim are perfect, with the exception of the plastic door armrest supports, which are broken. I’ve seen the repair done on TV car repair shows - they used fiberglass cloth and resin over a screen form to fix the armrests. Exterior: Never hit; no repairs; no rust; garaged, not left in sun.

Next-gen Ford Cobra Jet development underway, but will it be a Mustang?
Wed, 09 Oct 2013Ford might be stepping away from the NHRA, but it isn't abandoning drag racing altogether. Hot Rod says that Ford confirmed a next-gen Cobra Jet factory drag racer is in the works, but the report also speculates that a new Cobra Jet could switch away from the Mustang nameplate.
Even though talk of a new Cobra Jet coincides with the all-new 2015 Mustang, the lack of confirmation for the dragster's platform leaves Hot Rod to guess that the car might switch to another platform - specifically a front-drive-based, unibody car like the Fusion or Taurus. We'd hate to think of a world with a NASCAR-ized dragster from Ford Racing, but it's also highly unlikely that the Mustang Cobra Jet would step away from its quarter-mile rivals like the Chevy COPO Camaro and Dodge Challenger Drag Pak.
Report: GM struggling to market turbo technology
Tue, 20 Apr 2010In the automotive realm, marketing can sometimes prove just as important as the actual product. Take, for instance, Ford's well regarded EcoBoost technology, which couples turbocharging with direct injection to produce more horsepower and reduce fuel consumption. Would it surprise you to hear that General Motors has had similar technology on the market for over three years?
It's true. GM's first turbocharged, direct injected powerplants hit the market for the 2007 model. The 2.0-liter Ecotec mills put down an impressive 260 horsepower and a matching 260 pound-feet of torque, and they were lauded by the press in the engine bays of the Pontiac Solstice, Saturn Sky, Chevrolet Cobalt SS and Chevrolet HHR SS. But few people outside a core group of enthusiasts actually remember this fact.
Says Uwe Grebe, executive director of GM's global advanced engineering, "We didn't have a badge and say, 'This is the most important thing we will put on all our brochures.'" Ford, however, did just that, and it's EcoBoost engines are right at the tips of all our tongues when we discuss today's most advanced powerplants. So, how does The General fix its mistake?
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
