what i know about 1966 thunderbirds you could write on a postage stamp. so if you are reading this then i am sure you know way more than me about this kind of antique car.this old girl belongs to one of the guys that works for me and he has no computer so i am listing it on his behalf. so i encourage anyone interested to come see and drive it if at all possible. up for auction is this buck rogersmobile 1966 thunderbird sport coupe needing a little TLC. there is a clear south carolina title for the car. she has a great big REBUILT 390 ci V8 in her which starts up very easily and runs GREAT and has a couple of thousand miles on her since the rebuild. the engine sounds very healthy, the starter is a little on the sluggish side in my opinion. the old girl has a very good exhaust but it is VERY loud and need new donut gaskets to be fitted where the pipes join the manifolds. she has some great options and is fitted with SWING AWAY STEERING WHEEL, power windows and POWER VENT WINDOWS! power door locks,remote control drivers door mirror, overhead console, fender skirts and spinner hubcaps (only 3) factory A/C, power steering and power brakes. the windows were broken out by vandals. but all the glass has been bought to put in including a BRAND NEW WINDSHIELD still in the big box from the dealer. the windshield and back glass GASKETS ARE BRAND NEW! the back glass is in perfect condition and ready to put in. perfect used door glasses with frames also come with the car. the area around the back glass does have some rust out in a couple of spots about 6 inches long. these obviously need to be repaired but its all hidden once the new glass and gasket go in, please see the close up picture`s. the floor pans are all very SOLID. the rocker panels are also solid, very minor rust and thats it. there is evidence of some bondo down low by the rear wheel well`s but it must have been done years ago, see close up pictures. the trunk floor has had a repair done at some time in the distant past. but from underneath the inner quarter panels look good. the gas tank looks good also. the unibody frame rails all look very good. the underside lip of trunk lid looks good whereas the hood lip has some rust out which could be repaired easily enough in my opinion, see the pic`s. the 3 spinner hubcaps look very nice. the A/C is all complete and original as far as i can tell, i am sure its still on R12, but it may have been converted. some of the dashboard levers and so on will need to be lubed or maybe taken out and cleaned up as they are stiff or just don`t want to move, all easy kind of stuff that just takes a bit of time and elbow grease. the braces that run from the shock towers to the firewall need to be bolted back in, they are in the trunk. there are a number of parts in the trunk including the landau bars for the roof, see the picture of parts laid on the trunk lid. the drivers door panel is off and will need some help around the door pull area. its all small kinda stuff that needs done. the reserve is set low, to where my guy is only losing his shirt and not his first born child, LOL. right now the old girl will crank right up and drive around the yard or onto a trailer but she has not been on the road for a couple of years. in my opinion the buyer will need to trailer the car away. i can provide a shipping quote if you give me the town you live in and the zip code. i am not saying that the car could not be driven away but its not something i would do. for a start it is VERY VERY loud. if you have any questions, want to make an offer or need more pictures please email. or you can call me on 864 616 6860 up until 10 pm east coast time. shipping over sea`s is no problem at all and charleston port is only 4 hours east of me. i have already shipped antique cars to england, germany, sweden and australia. clear title in hand along with the original keys for the car. i am sure i am missing things here as i am not familiar with this kind of car so i encourage you to call or better yet stop by and see the car in person. any inspection is welcome and we can put her up on a lift for you so you can have a really good look underneath. FULL PAYMENT IN THREE DAYS. the ONLY methods of payment are CASH IN PERSON or a BANK WIRE TRANSFER. no other type of payment will be accepted and if you cannot comply with these simple terms then simply do not bid. thanks and good luck y`all. |

2016 Ford Police Interceptor Utility shows up for duty in Chicago
Fri, Feb 13 2015The latest upgrade for the 2016 Ford Police Interceptor Utility is all set to patrol the Windy City's streets with its debut at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show. On the outside, the revised Ford police vehicle looks basically the same as the recently refreshed Explorer with a new grille and redesigned headlights. Inside, there's a restyled steering wheel and center console. Unlike the civilian model, though, the PI Utility gets heavy-duty brakes, a more robust cooling system, reinforced subframe mounts and larger diameter suspension springs for more strength. Under the hood, police forces get to choose between either a 3.7-liter V6 with 304 horsepower and 279 pound-feet of torque or a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 with 365 hp and 350 lb-ft of twist. Regardless of powertrain, these 'utes feature a six-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The transmission includes the awesome-sounding Pursuit Mode feature that switches over to more aggressive shifts when it detects harder driving to properly stop crime. Related Video:
Toyota, Ford and Honda again top Consumer Reports Car-Brand Perception Survey
Fri, 01 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has released its annual Car-Brand Perception Survey, and the list looks awfully familiar. The top six brands are identical to last year's results, with Toyota, Ford and Honda continuing to occupy the podium. All told, Toyota walked away with 133 points, putting it 15 ahead of second-place Ford. Honda jumped 26 points this year, narrowing Ford's lead to just four points in total.
Consumer Reports polls buyers from across the country on how they see multiple brands in seven categories, including quality, safety, value, performance, design/style, technology/innovation and environmentally friendly/green. Researchers then combine the findings to come up with the total brand score.
While value and performance remain important to buyers, CR found quality and safety are still on top when it comes to significance. Scion and Mitsubishi found themselves at the bottom of the pack with the worst score of all, tied at just six points. Ram, Fiat and Mini filled out the lowest five with scores of seven, eight and 10 points, respectively. You can read the full press release below for more information, or head over to the Consumer Reports site.
2015 Ford Edge holds line on pricing, starts at $28,100*
Tue, 04 Nov 2014The Ford Edge gets an updated platform, bolder styling and a standard 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost engine pumping out 245 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque for the 2015 model year. You might expect that all those new features would result in a big price bump, but you'd be wrong. Ford is keeping costs identical to the 2014 model with a starting MSRP of $28,100 (*plus an $895 destination charge), according to Edmunds. Ford spokesperson William Mattiace confirmed the numbers to Autoblog.
That's a pretty good deal, but the real ticket here might be the model's Sport trim. Buyers get a 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 EcoBoost engine with over 300 horsepower and standard adaptive steering for $28,600 plus destination. That's just $500 more than the base model.
Pricing for the Titanium trim has not yet been announced, but it'll be a short wait to find out. Mattiace tells Autoblog that full pricing and the configuration for the model will launch on November 5. He has also confirmed that the 2015 Edge will begin hitting dealers in the first quarter of 2015.
