1970 Ford Thunderbird Brougham on 2040-cars

Year:1970 Mileage:28000 Color: of the car
Location:

Royal, Arkansas, United States

Royal, Arkansas, United States

I will describe the T-bird as best i can and please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. The odometer and the title both show 28,xxx miles and title states actual. Actual or not I am not sure. There is only one torn area on the drivers seat and could be from getting in and getting out. Other areas of wear suggest that miles are incorrect. either may, there is no proof. The headliner has 2 holes and appears to have been made by rodents. The rest of the interior appears original and in good condition with the exception of a 3" crack in the dash pad.

Mechanically the car runs and drives and stops. The air does not blow cold but is all there. The exhaust system must have a bad hanger as the tail pipe is bouncing on the frame and the drivers side tail pipe needs to be replaced. The rear main seal leaks badly and will need to be replaced.

The exterior of the car. Car has been painted and had rust repair previously. The rear quarters will require metal work to be put back correct. The good news is that as far as i can tell, the only rust issues are in the quarters. The floors, trunk, doors are all solid. There are a couple bumps under the vinyl roof but can't tell for sure what's going on there. The vinyl roof itself does show signs of weather damage from the sun. A couple small pieces of stainless trim are missing and a couple others are damaged. All could stand to be polished. The back bumper needs to be re-chromed and the rear valance has been damaged. The overall condition of the paint is fair. But truly the car needs to be restored to be the glamour bird it once was.  

The car does have the gorgeous bucket seat console interior but was not delivered with power windows, seats, door locks or cruise control. The positive of that is less to go wrong.

The windshield has one small star from a stone but all the rest is good.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions regarding the car at 501-262-8565.

May be able to help with shipping.

Ford to reveal Vignale sub-brand with special Mondeo in Frankfurt

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

Ford says that 10-15 percent of its customers in Europe want their cars to be set apart from regular Fords - even those wearing the top Titanium X trim - and the Blue Oval will answer them with the Vignale sub-brand. The new brand proposes a more upscale look and a much-improved dealership experience, Autocar reports. The Vignale Mondeo will debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show to kick off the new endeavor.
The first Ford to receive the Vignale treatment will be the 2015 Mondeo, a Euro-only model, followed by the new S-Max and Edge. The Vignale Mondeo is set apart visually from other Mondeos by a chrome grille and chrome door handles and mirror caps. Mondeo badging will be deleted - only Vignale badging will make an appearance.
The interior will get a more upscale flavor, as well, with quilted leather seats and door trim and leather covering the instrument panel, center console and steering wheel. A Vignale-badged storage drawer will be installed in the trunk, and in-car Wi-Fi is available.

Ford Escort Concept goes back to basics

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

Here's the thing about China: The folks buying cars there have a very different set of standards than shoppers in many other markets around the globe. While we all drool over hot metal with bold designs, and while we appreciate automakers going an extra step to inject even their cheapest offerings with aggressive and interesting cues, that sort of sheetmetal sex appeal doesn't always sell in the People's Republic. Case in point is Jaguar, which may be designing a more traditional-looking version of its XJ for the Chinese market, or more to the point of this story, Ford currently sells the less-exciting, last-generation Focus compact in China right alongside the new one.
So consider this new Shanghai-bound C-segment concept a preview of what's to come for that more traditional, budget-minded, less-sexy market. More proof of this pudding: Ford's even calling this concept the Escort - a nod to the Blue Oval's compact car days of yore, and a name that stirs up thoughts of basic, affordable transportation rather than great driving dynamics or bold design. "Customers in China described seeking a vehicle that is stylish - but not one that is arrogant or pretentious," Ford states. And this new Escort concept previews a possibility of providing exactly that for this rapidly expanding automotive market.
What you're looking at, then, is one of the most simple Ford designs we've seen of late, though it still incorporates all of the automaker's latest DNA. The signature hexagonal grille is front and center, flanked by attractive LED headlamps and chrome-rimmed foglamp housings. The entire car's design focuses on clean, smooth surfaces, with one strong character line flowing from front to back just below the beltline. We will say that the car looks decidedly more premium from the rear view, where narrow, horizontal taillamps with an LED accent give the car added visual width. Bland as it may be, it's a handsome little concept, though fear what would likely happen if all of the conceptual details get dumbed down for a production model.

Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.
