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.

Ford dissects the heart of the 2015 Mustang, its engine range
Thu, 05 Dec 2013Happy Mustang Day. Are you tired of hearing about the 2015 Ford Mustang yet? No? Good, here's a bunch of mechanical data on Ford's sixth-gen muscle car, along with cutaways of the GT's 5.0-liter V8 and the new 2.3-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder shown above. We also have a smattering of info on the Stang's updated transmissions and an exploded-parts-diagram view of its all-new independent rear suspension.
Ford is set to make waves offering the Mustang with a turbo for the firs time since the small-volume SVO of the 1980s. Displacing 2.3 liters, the engine's twin-scroll turbo should help the four-cylinder turn out a projected 305 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, while also returning the best fuel economy in the Mustang's engine lineup. As we said in our Deep Dive, the EcoBoost will be slotted in as a premium engine, above the 3.7-liter V6 but below the 5.0-liter V8.
Speaking of that high-revving eight-cylinder, it's receiving a new cylinder head with high-flow ports. The intake and exhaust valves are larger and the cams have been replaced, among other tweaks. It should rev even higher thanks to a rebalanced crankshaft and forged connecting rods. Ford is still claiming a projected 420 hp and 390 lb-ft, although as many of the changes for the 2015's V8 come from the 2013 Boss 302, we're going to assume there's some sandbagging at work.

Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla details factory expansion; Ford and SunPower raise money for Sierra Club
Thu, Nov 20 2014Tesla has revealed the details of the upgrade of its Fremont, CA factory. One major change is the addition of a dedicated production space for the dual-motor P85D version of the Model S. Robots will be doing the battery installation on the Model S to save some time, and new export docks allow Tesla to get the cars out the door and on the way to their new owners more quickly. The new robots that move the cars around the factory have been named after X-Men characters, which makes our inner geeks smile. Check out the factory upgrade in the time-lapse video below and read more at Teslarati or at the Tesla Motors Blog. A program in Beijing for privileged registrations for EVs hasn't had much success. Of the 1,424 lottery winners, only about 30 percent went on to register an electric car despite a two-month extension of the deadline to do so. Buyers are likely discouraged by the lack of charging infrastructure, which the city hopes to ameliorate with the addition of 1,000 new charging stations by the end of the year, and by requiring new and renovated developments to set aside parking specifically for EV charging. Read more at Green Car Reports. The UC Davis Institute of Transportation Studies suggests that laws designed to protect dealers and consumers are stymieing the adoption of EVs. Laws like the ones certain states have in place that block or otherwise restrict Tesla's direct-to-consumer business model are not helpful for companies that want to introduce new products to the market. They prevent companies from passing on savings to customers for whom they would likely make the difference in a purchasing decision. One possible solution would be to allow exemptions to certain selling restrictions for a certain number of vehicles sold. "This could give automakers the degree of control needed to work out kinks with early customers, develop scalable processes for supporting PEVs, and ensure that effective dealer performance standards are in place before handing the reins over to wholly independent retailers," according to UC Davis ITS. Read more at the UC Davis website. Volkswagen says its environmental program, called "Think Blue. Factory," is meeting the automaker's own sustainability targets. The main purpose of the program is to move toward eco-friendlier carmaking at each of its plants worldwide.
