Reluctantly putting this car up for sale.  


 I recently bought it to use as my daily driver here in S. Florida ( which I am doing currently and enjoy driving it everyday ), however our accountant gave us the bad news and we owe way more in taxes than my wife or I anticpated , plus we have a car undergoing restoration that we have to finish paying off.    We are trying to get the funds other ways as well, and if we do, we will pull this car off of Ebay and I will continue to drive it.

1959 Thunderbird - typical T/bird - auto, no a/c, ps/ pb, radio.  Not an unusual or rare model, but still a nice car.  Pretty decent Florida car with a clear title. Runs and drives very well for a 54 year old car.  Recently tuned up, new gas tank/fuel pump.  It is a 10 footer.  Needs interior work ( door panels especially - seats are good, as is headliner ) and some trim bits here and there.  Nothing that isn't readily available.  There are a couple of rust bubbles coming up on the body ( shown in the photos - on the trunk lid and hood ), but the rest of the car seems fine.  It was repainted at some point in the past ( don't know when ) and is a brighter white than the Wimbledon White is supposed to be .    If you want a perfect car, then you will have to buy a high dollar restored show car.  If you want a nice car to drive and improve or restore as you enjoy it - this is the car.

Solid floors and trunk - photos of trunk show just surface rust from weatherstrip water leaks but the floor is solid = as is the car floor.  Seatbelts were also just installed in the car last week.

As this is a 54 year old used car, there are no warranties what so ever and it is being sold as/is, where is.

Located in S. Florida - email if you want more photos or photos of something not shown.  Also email if you want to see and inspect or drive the car

Passenger side door window has a crack in it.  I have ordered a replacement and will change it out ( I was going to anyway)

Ford vandalizes the SEMA Show floor with 2014 Transit Connect

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

The Ford booth here at SEMA is practically a 1970s throwback with all these customized vans sitting front and center. And we're completely fine with that. Take the black and yellow (black and yellow, black and yellow) 2014 Transit Connect from Mobsteel above. It's got a great stance, sits on steel wheels and has a pretty cool paint job and graphics package to boot.
Of course, that's not the only van you can see at the Ford booth. In fact, there are 10 Transit Connect vans on display from Ford here at SEMA, and you can see them all in our live gallery of high-res images above. Then, if you want to know more about each specific model, feel free to scroll down to read all about these vans in the official press release from Ford.

Ford Fiesta becomes UK all-time best seller

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

We may regard Ford as an American automaker, but ask a Brit and they may tell you otherwise. The Blue Oval has, after all, been selling cars in the UK since 1903, and started manufacturing there as far back as 1911 when it began local production of the Model T in Manchester. Last year Ford ended 100 years of vehicle manufacturing in the UK when the last Transit van rolled off the assembly line in Southampton, but it's still the biggest-selling automotive marque in Britain.
Ford has led the British market for 34 out of the past 45 years, selling more Fiestas than any other company sells any other car in the UK since 2009... when it overtook the Focus. In fact the Fiesta has now become the best-selling car in British history, topping 4,115,000 units since its introduction in 1976. The previous record was held by - you guessed it - another Ford: the Escort sold 4,105,961 units over the course of its 32 years on the British market.
Although the Fiesta is no longer manufactured in the UK (previous versions having been built at Dagenham until 2002), engines are: the EcoBoost line was developed at the company's R&D center in Essex and are built at the factory in Dunton, while its diesel engines were developed at Dagenham in East London. Even the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine in the Fiesta ST is built in South Wales.

Surprise! More Ford and Lincoln cars found with marijuana

Thu, Jul 27 2017

Ford is starting to have a serious problem on its hands. Today, ABC 7 in Detroit reported that another batch of Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ cars were found packed with 227 pounds of marijuana. This is a little over a week after Fords in Ohio were found stuffed with marijuana and only about two months after Fords in Minnesota were found full of weed. All of the cars traveled on train from Mexico to their destination. All in, several thousand pounds and several million dollars worth of marijuana has been discovered. According to the report, Immigration and Customs Enforcement found the cars at the Ford Rail Distribution Facility in Woodhaven, Michigan, just south of Ford's world headquarters in Dearborn. ICE became involved after a Ford employee reported the cars to Woodhaven police. It's unclear when and where the cars were packed with marijuana. With the cars in Minnesota, it's believed that the weed was added after leaving the factory but before being loaded on the train. Spare tires were removed and the space was used to smuggle the marijuana. Related Video:
