CONTACT JEFF AT 570 977 0741. Up for sale and your consideration is a 1964 Ford Thunderbird Landau that was recently awakened after a 9 year rest in a local resident's garage. This was a one family car since new. It is a true survivor. If you're looking for a rust free California car or a frame off restored car then you can stop reading the ad. This is a typical northeast car with a few rust issues although it was always a garage kept car. It has great potential for restoration, but can be enjoyed as-is since it runs, drives and stops well. The decision was made to keep the car as found because it is 100% original and unmolested and unaltered. One of the current trends is to leave a survivor car as found and enjoy it as-is with the exception of insuring it is mechanically reliable. After the car was removed from storage it received fresh gas, new gas filter, new points, new spark plugs, new oil pan gasket, two new brake lines, new brake master cylinder, and fresh oil and oil filter. After replacement of these items it was driven a couple of times to insure that it shifted, drove, and stopped well which it does. As you can see in some of the photos, the body will need some attention if the buyer is looking to improve the appearance. Please remember that you are looking at a 49 year old unrestored car. The vinyl top and interior are in amazing shape for their age. The interior is the deluxe Landau version with wood grain accents and optional wood-look steering wheel that swings away to the side in park for ease in vehicle entry and exit. The color combo is a desirable triple black. The headlights, parking lights, back-up lights, stop lights, turn signals, front fender turn signal indicators, AM radio, heater and defroster, wipers and horn are all in fine working order. Front power windows work fine but rear power windows do not work. Gas gauge does not work. All the glass is good. Under the hood is the original 390 cubic inch, 300 horsepower engine. It is 100% original and runs smooth and quiet. This car is priced so it will be affordable to even a working class person who wants to own and enjoy a desirable vehicle without spending a fortune. The price is in accordance with the condition. Mileage on the car shows 46073. The mileage on the title is listed as exempt as many older cars were since they did not have a sixth digit on the odometer. Please take the time to look at the photos. I even had the car put up on a lift to show the undercarriage. I have more photos of the car should any prospective buyer want them. Just call and ask for them. If any prospective buyer has any questions as to the integrity of the car, I welcome the opportunity to show the car in person by appointment only.

FBI Seizes Computers, Listening Devices From Ford Headquarters
Fri, Jul 25 2014FBI agents searched Ford Motor Company's headquarters in Dearborn, Michigan, this month as part of an investigation into possible corporate espionage. Eight devices, along with documents, computers and financial records, were among the items seized by federal agents on July 11, according to documents obtained by The Detroit News. The FBI searched Leach's home on June 20 and seized more than two dozen items in that search, Reuters reported. Former engineer Sharon Leach, a 17-year Ford veteran of company, was fired last month, according to The News, which first reported the story. She admitted to placing recording devices under conference tables before meetings. She told Ford security she used the recordings to assist in her meeting notes. She couldn't remove the devices after meetings without drawing attention to herself, leaving the devices to record other meetings. Leach has not been charged for any wrongdoing. Former federal prosecutor and Wayne State University law professor Peter Henning told The News that using a search warrant, rather than a subpoena, shows the FBI suspects more employees could be implicated. "If it's an economic espionage case or trade-secrets case, that rarely involves one individual," Henning told The Detroit News. "So the concern is if you send a subpoena and ask for recording devices, those things can be erased." Leach, Ford and the FBI declined to comment on the investigation.

Ford Mustang GT Bi-Fuel CNG
Tue, 23 Jul 2013Highly intrigued, we recently visited a Southern California Gas Company office to check out several hybrid vehicles promising something new. Unlike more commonplace gasoline-electric hybrids, we were there to evaluate innovative gasoline-compressed natural gas (CNG) hybrids - yes, they run on unleaded gasoline and compressed natural gas. According to the experts on hand, this arrangement delivers extended range and reduced emissions while chipping in with lower operating costs than pure-gasoline vehicles. There are advantages over its gasoline-electric counterparts, as well.
The program is part of a three-way collaboration between The Carlab, a Southern California-based automotive consulting firm, Landi Renzo USA, a company specializing in alternative fuel solutions, and America's Natural Gas Alliance, a group that promotes CNG. Long story short, the team has engineered a way to allow a modified internal combustion vehicle to seamlessly switch between two fuels (gasoline and CNG) with no driver intervention. In theory, and if it works as well as promised, it's a win-win for the vehicle owner and the environment.
Parked at the Gas Company office were six different gasoline-CNG hybrid vehicles. To demonstrate the technology's versatility (just about any gasoline vehicle may be modified) Carlab brought a varied assortment of bodystyles, each from a different automaker. After taking a quick glance at the half-dozen in the parking lot, we made a beeline for the performance-oriented Ford Mustang GT - a 2012 model - with the six-speed manual gearbox.
