1968 Ford Thunderbird Base Sedan 4-door 7.0l on 2040-cars

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.

How that awesome Mustang R/C car chase vid was made

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

We've reported on a few R/C car chase videos in the past. One in particular that stands out as a favorite is Zach King's "The Cliché RC Action Chase." It featured a pair of Ford Mustang coupes racing through a cardboard city, plowing into outdoor patios and busting through construction zones. It was wonderfully creative and fun to watch, yet we know there was more to its creation than a bunch of guys fooling around with a camera one afternoon.
Turns out we were right, as evidenced by this video produced by Ford that takes us behind the scenes of Zach's creation. The young filmmaker explains why he chose the Mustang to star in his video, as well as how the cardboard sets were created, what equipment they used for shooting and what it was like when his video went viral. Ford found the young filmmaker and produced the followup as part of its Mustang Countdown video series, which will see a new video about the Mustang culture released every week until the original muscle car's anniversary on April 17, 2014.
Want to make an RC chase video of your own? Yeah, we do too. Watch the behind-the-scenes video below (you can refresh yourself on the mini feature film, too) before you get started.

Rolling footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang hits YouTube [w/video]

Thu, 26 Dec 2013

Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal. There are no burnouts, no donuts, no revving, and thankfully, no music. It's just two minutes and 26 seconds of the new pony car running free in the desert.
So in case you needed more visualizing help, the video below will help you start imagining how you'll look in your 2014 Christmas present to yourself...
