I have a gorgeous, one of a kind, custom painted 1960 Ford Thunderbird. It is a tribute to the custom scalloping that Larry Watson was doing in the late 1950's in Los Angeles. This is a real stand out car and literally blows people away. You pretty much won't see another one like it.. The scalloping is done in a gorgeous Tangerine metallic with a hand painted green pin striping to set it off, WOW!

The car has some cool factory features like working power windows, seat & clock. It also has power steering and brakes and she drives effortlessly down the road like a new one. It has 85K original miles on the original 352V8 Auto, rated from the factory @ 300 H.P. They are a very powerful car if you have not ever driven one.

Here is a list of the things done to her:

- New harmonic balancer
- New fuel pump with vacuum assist
- New timing chain (changed just because the timing cover was off to replace seal)
- New points, condenser, rotor button, distributor cap and wires (*)
- New double platinum spark plugs
- New Holley carburetor
- Rebuilt power steering cylinder
- New water pump
- New fan belts
- New valve seals
- Road draft tube converted to PCV system
- New headlight and high beam switches
- New bulbs and lamps throughout entire car
- New modern stereo with iPod jack, (4) speakers and remote
- New door lock cylinders with keys
- New coolant hoses
- New heater core and valve
- New exhaust with factory type mufflers
- Lots of other new miscellaneous items like new chrome bumpers, trim, etc.
- Custom paint and pin striping by Jerry's House of Color in Ohio
- Lowered springs in the front
- 3 inch lowering blocks in the rear
- New chrome smoothie wheels
- 85,000 +/- original miles

The car is not 100% perfect as the work was done a few years ago, and now has some paint chips here and there and a tear on the passenger seat base, but all very minor things. Overall she is a really nice looking and driving car that will set you way apart at your next meet.

Here is a video of the car. Just click this link: http://s416.photobucket.com/user/kfelsman/media/2014-05-13_09-51-22_307_zps47a20715.mp4.html

 Please NO trade offers or help selling it, Genuine interests only may call: 310-208-Nine 847. Car is currently in Scottsdale, AZ.

Detroit's new fleet of donated police cars have safety issues [w/video]

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

In a show of generosity in mid-August, Detroit's business leaders donated $8 million to the Police Department and Fire Department in order to buy 100 new police vehicles and 23 EMS ambulances. But now officers have discovered - and complained - that the police vehicles have glaring safety issues, Deadline Detroit reports. It is not made clear what models of the fleet vehicles - which include police versions of the Ford Taurus, the Chevrolet Caprice and the Dodge Charger - are affected by the safety issues.
Officers reportedly have complained that the Plexiglass partition separating front-seat officers and back-seat prisoners is easily breached, and that the front passenger seat is installed too close to the dashboard. Prisoners who manage to writhe out of their handcuffs can bend the Plexiglass and reach into the cockpit, and sitting too close to the dashboard can render airbags more dangerous and make officers more vulnerable to injury in a crash.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association, received the complaints and reportedly said the vehicles would get safety updates addressing the issues. But Deadline Detroit reports that it checked some of the offending police cars and, as of the last few days, they hadn't been updated.

Enterprise working with renter's insurance to cover $47k Mustang stolen from its lot

Sat, 11 Jan 2014

There was more than a bit of public indigence following the recent story of Enterprise Rent-A-Car billing a customer $47,000 to replace a Ford Mustang GT Convertible stolen from a Nova Scotia lot. To recap: Kristen Cockerill rented the Mustang for two days, returned it to the lot on a Sunday and left the keys in a secure dropbox only for Enterprise employees to find the car gone the next day.
Despite Enterprise policies stating that customers are responsible for vehicles dropped on off-days, the company has admitted that the situation could've been handled a bit better.
In a recent statement, Enterprise has backed off the big-bill story, and claims to be working with Cockerill and her insurance company to resolve the issue. Further, the Enterprise general manager overseeing Nova Scotia has spoken with the harried renter, and apologized "for the way this claim was handled during the last few months."

2016 Ford Explorer order guide revealed

Wed, Jan 21 2015

The configurator for the refreshed 2016 Ford Explorer is already up and running. However, if you're the type of person that really likes to dig into the nitty-gritty of a vehicle's features, then the order guide for this latest Ford is now available (pictured right). While the documents don't list fuel economy, engine power or pricing, they give a precise idea of all of the differences separating each of the five trim levels: Base, XLT, Limited, Sport and Platinum. In addition to the tweaked styling across the board, even the Base model now features a rearview camera with a washer. There are also three new colors available: Shadow Black, Blue Jeans Metallic and Guard Metallic. Base, XLT and Limited trims are available with either a 3.5-liter V6 or new, optional 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. All of them are mated to a six-speed automatic, and all-wheel drive is optional with either engine. The new Platinum trim basically loads the Explorer up with everything imaginable. Power comes from the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, matched with all-wheel drive. Plus, the Platinum trim gets standard luxuries like a dual-pane moonroof, adaptive cruise control, a premium sound system and Ford's super-soft Nirvana Leather covering the seats. There are also some new tech features throughout the rest of the lineup. For example, an updated auto-parking system is also available on the Limited but comes standard on the Platinum. Furthermore, a 180-degree front camera and second-row USB charging are optional on the Sport but are standard on the Limited and Platinum. Check out the gallery for even more of the changes.
