1955 Ford Thunderbird Base Convertible 2-door 4.8l on 2040-cars
Warsaw, Indiana, United States
1955 Ford Thunderbird 31,500 ORIGINAL mileage The car has no rust and has no evidence of it ever having rust. Trunk and floors are perfect. Bottom of doors are perfect. I've added pictures of both. Five years ago this car was appraised at $48,500.00. The paint was in better shape. A fresh coat of paint would make it a $40k car! NADA values are $25k to $55k; Hagarty is $20k to $60k. My bottom price is a firm $25,000.00. You should see what Amos Mintor sells his t-birds for; this is a deal for a low-mileage t-bird!! This car is an investment, which you will never loose money, nor are they going down in price. Car is current on license, registration, and insurance. Clear Indiana title showing ACTUAL MILEAGE. I also have two previous title copies with milage actual. Main reason for selling the car we have a 10 month old and don't have the extra time to enjoy the car anymore. The car was repainted snowshoe white, in the early 80's. The paint is 30+ years old and could use fresh paint, but overall still looks good. Interior is very nice - black and white. 6 volt - 4 ply bias wide white wall tires A lot of options include: AM Radio, power brakes, power steering, power seats, power windows, windshield washers, and backup lights. The motor is original 292 with teapot Holley carb. Hard top - only car has swing up bracket so convertible top could be added - not included. Not many original 1955 Thunderbirds around with 31,500 actual mileage - body is solid - car has not been messed with a lot; just sat in a couple peoples collection. SERIOUS inquiries only - no low-ballers, solicitors - no trades - CASH MONEY. Car is sold as is, so please ask questions. Buyer is responsible for making own arrangements to pick up car. |

Tanner Foust gets eponymous hotted-up Ford Focus ST from Cobb Tuning
Thu, 14 Mar 2013Racer and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust has partnered up with Cobb Tuning to create a special-edition Ford Focus ST. The limited-edition hatches will come packing a reflashed ECU, special intercooler, tweaked intake and freer-flowing exhaust for up to 20 percent more power than the stock creation. Cobb says that the changes should push the final dyno figure to above 300 horsepower. Buyers can also expect to find special carbon fiber aerodynamic bits on board along with a new grille, graphics and wheels. Cobb hasn't released pricing on this Tanner Foust Edition Ford Focus ST as of yet, but you can bet the whole kit won't be cheap.
Fortunately, the company will sell you bits and pieces from the overall package for your Ford, and word has it engineers are also whipping up a Foust Fiesta ST. Look for Cobb's Focus ST website to go live next month, complete with accurate specs and pricing. Until then, enjoy clicking through the gallery here.

Ford to build next F-150, outgoing model concurrently?
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Ford is rumored to be considering concurrent production for old and new F-150 models in a bid to minimize supply chain disruptions and inventory. Automotive News is reporting that the Blue Oval will build both the current F-150 and its replacement, which we showed you testing just last month, side by side for about half a year before switching over entirely to next-generation production.
As IHS Automotive analyst Mike Jackson told AN, "In order to ramp up, you have to retool...and that means you have to take capacity offline." Building both models alongside could allow Ford to cope with the still strong demand for the current F-150, while populating dealer supplies and working out supply chain kinks for the new model before making a full-time switch.
A loss of capacity when demand is so strong, even for a short period, could spell bad news for Ford, which nets an estimated 90 percent of its global profit on pickups and large SUVs. As AN states, Ford produces the F-150 in both Kansas City, Missouri and Dearborn, Michigan, which allows it to maintain some degree of flexibility in production. The new F-150 is expected to arrive at the 2014 North American International Auto Show as a 2015 model, with a design inspired by the Atlas Concept first shown at the Detroit Auto Show last January.
2015 Ford Focus ST gets sleeker style, improved dynamics
Thu, 26 Jun 2014The Brits don't really have a major auto show these days. Not in a conventional sense, anyway, with stationary vehicles under floodlights in a closed exposition space. What they do have, you could argue, is much better: the Goodwood Festival of Speed, where the public can view the latest machinery not only under an open sky, but in motion as well, speeding up Lord March's front lawn. And this year, British automakers are rolling in with some very enticing new metal.
In the past few days alone we've confirmed the McLaren 650S GT3 and MSO, Jaguar F-Type Project 7, Range Rover Sport SVR and Ariel Ace will all be revealed for the first time at Goodwood this weekend. Ford isn't, strictly speaking, a British automaker, but for all its history in the UK, it might as well. So it's chosen Goodwood as the site to unveil its refreshed Focus ST.
The upgraded Blue Oval hot hatch still packs a 2.0-liter turbo four with 252 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque driving through a six-speed manual to the front wheels, so we're not expecting much change in measurable performance. But Ford has given the new Focus ST a new front suspension setup and a new electric power-assisted steering rack that combine to promise improved handling.
