Originally from Wyoming this 1964 T-Bird Coupe is an excellent example of a solid western car. The car has all of its original components ( motor, transmission etc.) and has not been modified at all. The exterior- The car looks to have most of its original paint but does show spots where it has been touched up but you really have to look close. A few dings here and there, but again, you have to be on top of the car to notice. The front of the hood has some chip marks where it curves down from stones. The roof is in excellent shape and the trunk is also. The inner lip of the trunk has surface rust spots on it as well as the underside of the hood. The inner bottom lips of the doors are the same but very solid. No holes anywhere on the car at all including the floors and trunk. The door jam openings are in nice shape and show their original paint as well. Car is very straight and corrrect with good lines and no waves. All of the glass is good without cracks. The chrome is in good shape and still shows lots of shine. As you will see from the pics, the front bumper has a slight curve in the middle of the bottom piece. All of the body side mouldings, glass trim etc. are in good shape.
The interior- The seats, carpet, door panels,headliner look all to be original. The armrests on the door panels on both side have small cracks in them. The headliner has one very small hole. The carpets and seats are in very nice shape for being original and the interior trim is in nice condition also. The pictures show the master switch for the power windows out of the car. A new switch has been installed and all windows are operational except the quarter window on the passenger side. The air conditioning blows but needs to be charged every spring. All of the gauges work including the radio.
Drivetrain- The motor, transmission and rear end are all in good working order with no known issues. The car runs down the road very well and has never given us any problem. The exhaust, tires, brakes, front end etc. were all checked out last year with its inspection and passed. We put approx. 300 miles a year on the car doing cruise-ins and shows. The farthest we have ever driven the car is approx. 200 miles to a show without problems.
We have a clear title in hand and we would suggest shipping the car to its new location unless you live a reasonable distance from us due to its age and the conditon of teh roads here in New York right now. ( snow)
Pre-sale inspections are welcome and questions prior to bidding are encouraged. All sales are final and without warranty. We can ship the car if needed but not outside a 300 miles radius. I can also store the car up to 30 days for free as long as the vehicle has been paid for in full. After that it would be 5.00 dollars a day for storage. Thank you for looking at our ad.

Ford recalling nearly 24,000 Focus EV and C-Max models over door chime
Fri, 04 Oct 2013Ford will be voluntarily recalling 23,830 Focus Electric and C-Max Hybrid and Energi models equipped with push-button ignition, according to The Detroit News. Why? Because the cars don't make a noise when the driver's door is open, and are therefore in violation of federal regulations. It's not as silly as Honda's badging recall that isn't a recall, but it's close.
Actually, that's not exactly fair. The chime is supposed to come on when the driver's door is open, as it reminds drivers not to leave their cars on or leave key fobs in the car, an easy thing to forget when the cars in question make virtually no noise at idle and do not require keys in ignitions.
The recall, which Ford is conducting voluntarily, covers 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric hatchbacks and 2013 C-Max Hybrid and Energi models. The overwhelming majority, around 22,900 units, were sold in the US, while the remaining 900 units are in Canada. How many of each model are covered in the recall is not immediately clear.
Performance CNG wants to crowdfund natural gas-powered Ford Mustang
Fri, May 16 2014Soliciting investments to develop a street-legal compressed natural gas (CNG) powered Ford Mustang that can deliver 470 horsepower certainly wouldn't make sense on a site called Indiestopstop. Nope, Indiegogo is the more-appropriately-named site that one Michigan entrepreneur is using to try and crowdfund his CNG 'Stang. He's looking to raise $55,000. Michigan's Daryl Patrishkoff and his company Performance CNG LLC showed off their converted 2003 Mustang last year at the Woodward Dream Cruise in Royal Oak, MI in an effort to get some exposure for the car, which can run on both gas and CNG. The company and its three-man team is looking to further develop the project in the name of a fueling source that is 40 percent cheaper than gasoline, throws off as much as 30 percent fewer tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions and makes the country less dependent on foreign oil. Performance CNG estimates that just 120,000 of the world's 15 million CNG-powered vehicles are in the US and is calling for more. As for the $55 grand, Patrishkoff estimates that more than half of that amount would be committed to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) testing of emissions, fuel economy and horsepower. The problem? As of right now, only $150 has been raised. Check out Performance CNG's press release below and see the fundraising effort on Indiegogo here. Eco-Friendly Muscle Car? CNG vehicles save money, emit less pollution and creates jobs from American-mined fuel SHELBY TOWNSHIP, Mich., May 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Daryl Patrishkoff of Shelby Township, MI, has a vision for the American automotive industry. He firmly believes that our fuel of choice should be Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), not gasoline. Until the full CNG infrastructure is in place a Bi-Fuel vehicle, fueled by either CNG or gasoline upon the drivers command, is the bridge vehicle that can lead this transition. Patrishkoff heads up a (3) man technical team developing this technology. The advantages are: 40 percent savings in fuel costs at the pump 25-30 percent reduction in harmful emissions 100 percent US provided natural gas Meaningful employment for the US economy The most important benefit, however, is that a CNG-powered vehicle runs on fuel that can be mined in America, eliminating the need for foreign oil. "After decades of political rhetoric, these types of vehicles can truly lead the US to energy independence," he said.
Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation
Sat, 09 Aug 2014
The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.
