This is a 1964 Ford Thunderbird classic. V8 two door, original engine with original (38,260) miles on it, swivel steering, bought it in 2005 in california. had some work done to it at the mechanic shop, they redid the brake system, cleaned out the engine and transmission. it does run and she sounds like a real beauty. this was going to be my project show car but im traveling too much and dont have time to work on it. so im selling it, im only selling it with what i have on it.....hate to sell it but i dont have the time and hate to see this beautiful car go to waste. please take a look at the pictures, this is a great find, ive thought so ever since i bought her. i have receipt with what work i did on the car. the mechanic had told me with some top end improvements she would run like a champ. I thought about doing the improvements before i sold the car but then i wouldve had to boost up the price. cosmetic details about the vehicle you are able to see them in the pictures, look at them very carefully i dont want to seem dishonest. this is an as is buy for this vehicle. this is a beautiful car and can be a show piece but even in its condition it still needs some attention, attention and time i dont have. happy bidding and good luck. the title is clear, i recently went to the motor vehicle office, i did not renew the plates because im selling it, so it would be redundant, incase someone buys it from another state. i have the receipt for the title, they said i should have it in about two weeks. if you happen to purchase the vehicle before i receive it i would gladly give you a bill of sale, the receipt of title application and i would send the title signed and dated to you by mail overnited. if you have any questions regarding this vehicle dont hesitate to contact me...

Ford says 70% of its models to get stop-start by 2017
Sun, 15 Dec 2013Ford is following up on a report we posted a few weeks back that the Blue Oval would be adding stop-start technology to its entire model range. Now, the Dearborn-based automaker has announced that the fuel-saving feature would be available on 70 percent of the company's range by 2017.
Ford claims the technology will improve fuel economy by around 3.5 percent, although its actual effect will vary based on how the owner drives - apparently up to a 10-percent improvement is possible for those who sit in heavy traffic (Los Angelenos, this means you). The latest recipient of the technology is the updated 2014 Ford Fiesta with the company's three-cylinder EcoBoost powerplant.
Part of the reasoning for the new addition has to do with cost. Ford claims the tech is affordable and easy to implement. "Simply put, Auto Start-Stop helps customers use less fuel, which is an important component of Ford's Blueprint for Sustainability," Ford's global powertrain vice president, Bob Fascetti, said.
Detroit automakers mulling helping DIA avoid bankruptcy looting
Tue, 13 May 2014It's not really a secret that the city of Detroit is in lots and lots of trouble. Even with an emergency manager working to guide it through bankruptcy, a number of the city's institutions remain in very serious danger. One of the most notable is the Detroit Institute of Arts, a 658,000-square-foot behemoth of art that counts works from Van Gogh, Picasso, Gauguin and Rembrandt (not to mention a version of Rodin's iconic "The Thinker," shown above) as part of its permanent collection.
Throughout the bankruptcy, the DIA has been under threat, with art enthusiasts, historians and fans of the museum concerned that its expansive collection - valued between $454 and $867 million by Christie's - could be sold by the city to help square its $18.5-billion debt.
Now, though, Detroit's hometown automakers could be set to step up and help save the renowned museum. According to a report from The Detroit News, the charitable arms of General Motors, Ford and Chrysler could be set to donate $25 million as part of a DIA-initiated campaign, called the "grand bargain." As part of the deal, the DIA would seek $100 million in corporate donations as part of a larger attempt at putting together an $816-million package that would be paid to city pension funds over 20 years. Such a move would protect the city's art collection from being sold off.
The big dune jump and the damage done
Mon, 20 May 2013The Silver Lake sand dunes see their fair share of well-built trophy trucks executing impressive jumps. Drivers build insane pieces of machinery for the express purpose of sailing through the air like mad men and women.
Mike Higgins is no stranger to the area. His heavily modified Ford trophy truck has gone flying through the sky on more than one occasion, but he recently bit off more than he could chew. After hitting a particularly lofty dune, Higgins went airborne for a ridiculous 180 feet before becoming intimately familiar with the finer points of gravity.
While Higgins nailed the jump, his landing fell short of wowing the judges. The impact very nearly broke his truck in two. Despite the mechanical mayhem, the driver walked away without a scratch, proving that occasionally miracles really do happen. You can check out the jump and the subsequent destruction below for yourself. Be warned: there's a fair bit of foul language.
