I am the second owner. The original owners (Mother & Son) had this car from 1966 to 2013. The son is now retired and preparing for a move to Colorado. He already has two projects going with him, so mom's car had to go. He had the car on non-operation with the DMV from 2003 until 2013 when I registered it. He had been restoring it from the bottom up for 10 years. This is what has been done to the car by the previous owner. Rebuilt Engine and Carburetor. It is the "Z" code 390 high compression engine. Re-painted engine compartment while the engine was out. The Choke works and it runs beautifully. Rebuilt C-6 transmission. THIS IS ONE OF THE FIRST TO RECEIVE THE NEW C-6 TRANSMISSIONS. They changed to the new trans. in November of 1965 and this car's production date is 11-23-1965. It starts and drives fantastic! I recently did an oil & transmission filter change. The underneath looks flawless. All bushings, tie rods, grease fittings are in perfect shape. He was prepping for paint so you either see the original Blue paint, brown primer or Metal. There are only three dings in the body and 3 small spots where body repairs were done in the past. I have 99% of all inside and outside moldings, trim, lights, etc. The only thing missing is the antenna (base is there) and the side moldings (although most Thunderbirds do not have these). If you want the link let me know ebay does not allow links. They were $283 when I checked on 1-24-14. Brakes are all in excellent shape and the car stops straight. What is left is the Cab and paint. The gauges all work, the radio comes on, but with no real antenna I am not sure if it will get any stations. The sequential turn signals work. I was able to get all the windows to work. All vacuum lines to the cab have been disconnected while I was fine tuning the motor. I wanted to make sure the engine has no vacuum leaks. Interior needs a headliner and front seat needs to be re-done. The dash has cracks and the tops of the door panels have some cracking. Since he had the car sitting for 10 years I went ahead and replaced the following – cap, rotor, spark plug wires, spark plugs, antifreeze, oil and filter, trans. filter. There is a $500 non-refundable deposit due within 48 hours of auction. Please ask any and all questions, I have a lot more pics of the car so if you need something specific let me know and include your email. Car will be listed locally so I reserve the right to end auction early. Thanks for looking & Good luck

2015 Ford Mustang revs it up at Cars & Coffee

Mon, 09 Dec 2013

Just because the new 2015 Ford Mustang has officially been released, you didn't think that would be the end of the matter - did you? Of course not. There'll still be plenty of rumors, reports and video footage to bring you. Like this, the first non-official footage of the new pony car in the wild.
Shot by YouTube user SotA1080 and dug up by our friends at CarBuzz, this clip shows the new Mustang posing for photos (alongside other Mustangs) and starting up its engine at the most recent gathering of Cars & Coffee in Irvine, CA. And this being the GT model, it's not packing the V6 or the turbo four, but the red-blooded 5.0-liter V8 that tells us and enthusiasts worldwide that the new Mustang has not lost its way. Scroll on down to watch the footage for yourself.

Ford S-Max Concept proves minivans aren't always minivans [w/video]

Tue, 10 Sep 2013

Ford's latest don't-call-it-a-minivan is called the S-Max Concept, and it's a looker. As you can see, the conceptual overgrown hatch makes good use of Ford's latest design language, especially at the very front of the S-Max, which bears a striking resemblance to production models that include the Focus, C-Max and Fusion.
Powering the S-Max Concept is a 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine, and while Ford doesn't actually list power figures for the concept, previous estimates put the mill at 133 kW of power (about 178 horsepower) and 240 Nm of torque (about 177 pound-feet). Inside, there's room for seven passengers and at least some of their luggage.
As you'd expect, the S-Max is loaded up with all of Ford's latest infotainment technology, including Sync and MyFordTouch. More interestingly, there are also onboard heart and blood glucose monitors that we doubt will be seeing the light of production anytime soon. On that topic, don't expect to see any S-Max-shaped vehicles hitting the US market from Ford, either. Scroll down below for the press release, but not before checking out the high-res image gallery above.

Ken Block's Gymkhana 8 to feature Dubai Police cars?

Tue, Feb 23 2016

Yesterday we showed you the shiny Ford Fiesta that Ken Block will slide, spin, and hoon through the next Gymkhana video. In case the image above isn't clear, that video will drop at midnight EST on February 30th on the Ford Performance YouTube channel. We don't know all the entire premise of the video yet, but this Tweet from the man himself reveals that the video will be set in Dubai. Block is standing on the Fiesta we saw yesterday, and arrayed behind him are a handful of those famous Dubai Police cars you're probably familiar with. The force has a fleet of sportscars and supercars, and the purpose is outreach and goodwill among its citizenry, not necessarily the pursuit of criminals. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. From left to right, we can see a Maserati GranTurismo, Porsche 911, what looks to be a Nissan GT-R obscured by Block's Fiesta, a McLaren (likely a 650S), Ford Mustang, and a Ferrari 599 of some ilk. Will they take part? Maybe Block will try and run from what might be the most horsepower-intensive police fleet in the world. We'll have answers (and a few minutes of pure Block hooniganism) in a few days. Related Video:
