1967 Ford Thunderbird 2 Dr. "southern California Car Since New" 2nd Owner on 2040-cars
Escondido, California, United States
|
I bought this car from my daughters boyfriend. He was needing money for college last fall and wasn't in a postion to be able to work on it. He was given the car by his great grandpa who purchased it new. It has always been in the north Glendora, CA area. Stored inside most of the time so the paint is extremely good for the year.
Grandpa was a L.A. county mechanic so it's been maintained well and the engine and rans have been rebuilt. It drives great on the freeway at 80 and handles good. (kind of a pillowy ride honestly) It's currently insured, registered and driven to work occasionally, I'd say it could be driven across the country but the wipers need some attention first. (on these T-birds they were run off the power steering and they won't shut off. I think the valve is staying shut so it won't shut off the fluid). Tires and brakes are good we've just had the Brake booster and master cylinder rebuilt locally here in San Diego. Paint is original except for a couple of spots. ( I've included pictures of these areas so you can see for yourself). windshield has a crack top to bottom right in the center. (not in eye's view, but it's there). Seats, headliner and carpet are nice.(drivers door panel inner plastic where it mounts is cracked but with some patience should be repairable) I've taken quite a few pictures but if you want to see more let me know. I have 5 other classics so could use the room and would like to see someone enjoy it. Good luck thanks for looking! Greg I have a clear title and can pick you up at the San diego airport so you can drive it home or coordinate shipping if you'd rather go that route. |

Production Ford Escort heading for Beijing
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Ford's long-dormant Escort nameplate returned affixed to a sedan concept at last year's Shanghai Motor Show. While not exactly a beauty, it showed a clean, straightforward take on Ford's current styling. The Blue Oval said at the time that it wanted to create a model that was stylish "but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Job done. A year later, it looks like the minimalist vehicle might make its production debut at the Beijing Motor Show.
Autocar claims that the streetgoing version has been confirmed to it for the upcoming show, but so far, Ford isn't saying. If unveiled, the Escort is likely to be produced locally for the Chinese market with a domestic partner. Powertrain details remain a secret, but it seems highly likely that any production model would use a small three- or four-cylinder engine and front-wheel drive. Sales in other major world markets like ours are unlikely, but a test car was recently spotted in Europe.
Autoblog contacted Ford for confirmation, but the automaker demurred, with a spokesperson saying only, "At the moment, we are not confirming any vehicles planned for the show." It looks like we will have to wait to know for sure.
Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race
Thu, 06 Jun 2013When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.
2015 Ford Mustang prototype spotted on the street
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Our trusty spy photographers have snapped the first photos of the 2015 Ford Mustang prototype out on public streets. With nearly every square inch of the machine covered in heavy camouflage, it's difficult to discern details, but we can see smallish horizontal headlamps at work in the coupe's nose. Ford has made it clear that modern lighting technology will allow the company to get away from large, expensive headlamp arrays in the near future, and the 2015 Mustang may very well be the first of the automaker's products to bow with the new tech. The philosophy was first displayed on the very attractive Evos Concept.
The extensive cladding doesn't extend all the way to the prototype's rockers in the instance, giving us a look at the heavily-sculpted sills. Overall, this test car looks considerably smaller than the current generation Mustang, and elements like a short front overhang and beefy dual-piston calipers give us plenty of hope for the future model. Of course, reports that the 2015 Mustang will bow with an independent rear suspension and EcoBoost power certainly don't hurt our feelings, either.
