1969 Ford Thunderbird Base Sedan 4-door 7.0l on 2040-cars
Lexington, Kentucky, United States
Restored 10 years ago. Very Sharp 12-20 footer. 429 Thunder jet engine. Almost all original (vinyl seat covers replaced). 60k miles and odometer has always worked. Rebuilt engine after I purchased the car in 2002, with less than 3000 miles on the rebuilt motor. Transmission has always shifted very smoothly. New 4 barrel Holly carb installed last year (made it run the best it ever has). Original top and headliner. Suicide 4 door model. I purchased the car in 2002 and restored it, changed the paint color from gray to black, interior was redone with a kit. Body was stripped to the metal before painting. There are a few minor cosmetic paint issues. Very good condition for the age, Frame / underside / floor pans/ trunk are all in great shape. AC works and was converted to R134a. Headlights hideaway when car is running. Several spare parts (starter etc.) go with the car. The tail light sequencer does not work, but other than that everything else does. This car has been taken on trips since being rebuilt, including an 800 mile trip a few years ago. Several spare parts go with the car (starter, set of original vinyl mats etc). Selling the car because I do not drive it much anymore, and have several other cars. Mechanically the car is very sound. There are minor cosmetic issues, but this car is a head turner. Buyer is responsible for shipping. If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to ask. |

Bill Ford augments his power by nearly doubling stake of supervoting shares
Fri, 28 Jun 2013Bill Ford Jr. has more sway than ever over the automaker that bears his surname, as the great-grandson of Ford's founder has reportedly doubled is holdings of Class B Ford stock. According to a report from Reuters (which cites a newly discovered securities filing), he acquired some 3.7 million Class B shares from an unnamed family member.
Class B shares of Ford stock are held by descendants of Henry Ford and offer expanded voting power to their holders - Bill Ford Jr. now controls roughly 11.5 percent of the total Class B pool. Ford Jr. is also a one of five trustees that manage a voting trust that oversees the majority of these "supervoting" shares. In total, Reuters reports there are 71 million Class B shares that account for 40 percent of the voting power in the company, despite making up just 2 percent of the total volume of all Ford stock.
Ford Jr. served as Ford's CEO until 2006, when he stepped down to hire and make space for current CEO, Alan Mulally. The move to consolidate Ford family voting power, at least somewhat, is seen by many as a comforting sign with Mulally's departure from the company likely to happen in the next several years.
Former Ford president, Jaguar chairman Nick Scheele dead at 70
Sun, 20 Jul 2014We have the privilege here at Autoblog of reporting a lot of good news, but it is our duty as well to report the bad news and sad news as well. And this is one of those occasions as the automotive industry mourns the passing of one of its leaders.
Nick Scheele was born in the UK in 1944 and joined the Ford Motor Company upon graduating from the University of Durham in 1966, staying within the Blue Oval's portfolio for the entirety of his career. After moving to North America in 1978, he rose through the ranks to become president of Ford's Mexican operations in 1988. After acquiring Jaguar, Ford appointed Scheele as its chairman.
Scheele subsequently acted as chairman of all of Ford's European operations, making difficult decisions to take the division out of the red and into the black. He briefly headed up Ford's North American division before he was appointed in 2001 as president and chief operating officer of the global automaker, working under CEO Bill Ford following the departure of Jacques Nasser departure and retaining the role until his retirement in 2005.
