I have a 1968 Ford Thunder bird four door sedan.

The body is in good condition, no body damage and no cancer at all throughout the vehicle, very original car from what I can tell.

The floor boards and trunk pan are very solid with no rust at all. The top is solid as well under the vinyl.

The interior is in really nice shape and very comfortable, it looks to be all original, but for how nice it is it could have been redone.

Interior lights all come on when the door is open and all dash lights and instruments work even the power seats and radio!                              

The only instrument that may not work is the gas gauge. It has a new stainless steel gas tank and I think the sending unit may have gotten unplugged as to why the gas gauge is not working. 

The only real surface rust is near the bottom of the vinyl top on the rear passenger side, but the body and frame is very solid in all areas. The vinyl top is in overall good shape for its age, but there is a section in the back that has cracked and is missing. To be really nice it could be replaced or just the under window section could be replaced.

All doors open and all as they should and the glass is in good shape. The drivers power window is the only window I have gotten to go up and down. The others may work but I have not investigated, they may just be stuck. 

The electro- pneumatic Headlights and windshield wipers work as they should and the headlights are really cool to see flip up.The heater and defroster work well and have been nice on these cold days. It has not been warm enough to really test the A/C yet.

It has front disk brakes which allow the car to slow down very easily, a big plus because this car really likes to move down the road!

The chrome is all in good shape and all the trim pieces seem to be there as well as emblems ect.

It has a 429 V8 that does start and run and idles very nicely, the automatic transmission shifts great. Mechanically the car performs very well, power steering is smooth and the car does not leak a drop of anything. I have had this car floating down the road at 85 mph with out a problem. 

I bought the car from an older gentleman who has owned it for the last 15 years and he purchased it from the original owners. It has been garage kept most of its life. I bought it to have as a nice Sunday cruiser for the family, but plans have changed and we need to sell. With a little work this car could be a nice show car, but for now it is a great driver and I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere.

If someone wanted to restore it and make it a nice show vehicle this would be a perfect candidate.

 

 

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to let me know, And I will get back with you to the best of my knowledge of the vehicle  

I have over 25 pictures of the interior and exterior as well as a video of the car running and driving, and I can send pictures and a short video of any area of the car for serious bidders.

This vehicle is sold AS-IS no warranty is written or expressed.

500 dollar deposit is due at end of auction with remaining cost due upon pick up of vehicle.

shipping/transportation of vehicle is the responsibility of the buyer.

Thanks you for your interest, if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

2015 will be the biggest year ever for cars at CES

Fri, Jan 2 2015

Like the SEMA Show, major automakers are paying increasing attention to the CES, with 2015 expected to be one of the most auto focused yet. Ford, Volkswagen, Toyota, General Motors, Hyundai, Mazda, Audi, BMW and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will all be in attendance when CES 2015 kicks off next week, taking up a record-breaking 165,000 square feet of space at the Las Vegas Convention Center. "We've come a long way from a single car on a carpet," Ford's Alan Hall told Bloomberg. Unlike SEMA, or a more traditional auto show, like the upcoming festivities in Detroit, CES doesn't necessarily focus on entire cars or the way they perform, but on the way our technology will interact with vehicles, and in how those vehicles will deliver information to drivers. "CES has become a major launch point for a lot of the big automakers," IHS tech analyst Mark Boyadjis told Bloomberg. "CES is a way for them to get on a global stage for technology." As for what kind of wares automakers will trot out in Las Vegas, we already know that BMW will show off an autonomous i3 electric car that can navigate its way through a multistory car park and can be hailed via a smartwatch app. According to Bloomberg, Hyundai will show off its own smartwatch app for the Genesis sedan, while Audi and Mercedes-Benz will show off autonomous vehicles next week. Automakers won't be the only companies looking to capitalize on CES. Tech firms, like chipmaker Nvidia, are becoming increasingly involved in the automotive game and will be in town showing their wares off to OEMs. "Two years ago, our booth would have been filled with PCs and people playing video games," Danny Shapiro, Nvidia's senior director for automotive business, told Bloomberg. "This year we made a strategic decision to shift the focus of the booth on automotive and de-prioritize some of the other things." Needless to say, you can expect to see a lot of news out of Las Vegas come next week. Stay tuned.

Mysterious small Ford spied in Germany

Sat, 29 Jun 2013

Our spy photographers have just popped off a few shots of something curious. This little runabout was spotted in Germany out testing with a current-generation Ford Fiesta. We're fairly confident the machine is a Ford, but exactly which Ford model is up for debate. The hatchback could be the next-generation Ka, but we've also heard that the Blue Oval supermini might not get a replacement. Our shooter says the five-door is a bit smaller than the current Fiesta, though there is a chance that this rig is just an engineering mule for drivetrain development. Then again, it could be a model built specifically for the South African market or China, or not a Ford at all.
Whatever it is and wherever it's headed, you can check out in the gallery for a closer look before heading into Comments to weigh in with your best guess.
