Up for auction is a very nice 70' T-Bird which was a 1-owner California car for 37 yrs. I purchased the car from the second CA. owner two years ago and had it shipped back east. The body is very straight and is completely rust free. Car has not recently been patched and painted to conceal rust and there is no "bubbling" high or low. Older repaint retains a nice gloss which does show some wear with one softball sized area high up on the rear quarter panel where the paint is cracking (see photo). Original 429 runs good with 88k on the odometer. Original trans shifts firmly with no lag between shifts but does have a leak around the pan. Original interior is in very good cond. with no tears in the seats (see photos), Carpet and headliner are also nice.The dash pad has a crack in the typical location as most (see photo). All of the glass including the windshield is original and displays the oval car-lite emblems. The two front windows work but, the pass. window goes down halfway and starts to bind and one of the sm. rear windows does not work. Michelin tires are in good cond. Brakes are soft but, well capable of stopping the car. There are no charging issues as the car has sat for weeks with no need to recharge system. The clock does not work but, I'm including a nos clock nib with the sale. FM 8track is not connected. This very nice all original with one repaint car is well suited for someone who would like to drive and enjoy now while taking care of some mechanical issues in time. I have set a low reserve. Feel free to call Kenny @ 571-447-3315 with questions. I have the car advertised locally and reserve the right to end the auction early upon its sale.

Ford to ramp up Lincoln rollout in China in bid to catch rivals
Thu, Apr 12 2018DETROIT/BEIJING — Ford Motor Co's premium Lincoln brand plans to build as many as five new vehicles in China by 2022, according to two U.S. sources, in a move to expand sales in the world's largest vehicle market that would also blunt the impact of trade U.S.-China trade spats. Ford has said it plans to build an all-new sport utility vehicle in China by the end of 2019, however the company has not detailed future production plans for the Lincoln brand in China beyond that. "Our localization plans to support the China market are on track and will serve to further drive Lincoln's growth in China," Lincoln spokeswoman Angie Kozleski said. "Beyond that, it would be premature to discuss our future product and production plans or timing." Sources familiar with Ford's production plans told Reuters the automaker now expects to begin building the new Lincoln Aviator in China in late 2019 or early 2020, along with replacements for the MKC compact crossover and the MKZ midsize sedan, followed in 2021 by the all-new Nautilus, which replaces the Lincoln MKX crossover. A fifth model, a small coupe-like crossover, is tentatively slated for production in China in 2022, the sources said. Ford has much to lose if the war of words over trade between China and U.S. President Donald Trump escalates into a full-blown tariff war. Last year, it shipped about 80,000 vehicles to China from North America, more than half of them Lincolns to support the brand's growth. All Lincoln vehicles that Ford now sells in China are brought in from North America. Even if China does reduce its 25 percent tariff on imported vehicles - as Chinese President Xi Jinping promised on Tuesday - it is not clear that would mean a big, long-term increase in Fords and Lincolns made in U.S. factories heading to Chinese showrooms. Ford is pursuing long-range plans to build more vehicles in China to serve a market that is now roughly 60 percent larger than the U.S. market, and projected to keep growing. But it is playing catch up to hometown rival General Motors Co and German luxury brands including Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz, which have invested heavily in Chinese production in recent years as a form of insurance against trade, political and currency gyrations and to lower price points for their premium cars.
Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job
Tue, 07 Jan 2014When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.
