I am selling my 1971 Ford Thunderbird. The interior is very nice and decent. New carburetor, new gaskets, new power steering pump, new power steering box and new power steering line have been installed. I will include copies of the the service receipts. Tires are new with race car wheels but I also have the original wheels for the T-Bird. The car will need a steering column which I never installed because it is a little noisy when making a full left u-turn only but it is not something that happens too often. Vehicle starts up and drives wonderfully and has some minor cosmetic defects as shown in the images. There is a rust spot on the right passenger side and a couple of minor tears in the front seat but relatively small. The back seat is in great condition and the overall body is in great condition. The door panels on both the left and right passenger side are incomplete but that's all that's left. Power windows do work. Everything is kept original including the original radio. The original T-Bird floor mats are still on the floor.

I will include the original Ford operation manuals and the original owners manual. I will also include the original T-Bird hub caps and the car cover specifically made for the T-Bird. The dash has no cracks and I will include the dash cover which protects the dash from UV exposure to prevent cracks.

Car is for sale locally and will be removed if sold. If the reserve price has been met then I will not remove the listing from Ebay. The local asking price is $4000.00 however the reserve price is much less than that.

In fairness to all bidders I will not disclose the reserve. I have added a buy it now since I know I will get requests but the reserve is lower than that. Car is for sale as is where is. I have done my best to describe it but please understand that it is 42 years old and not perfect. Car is available for inspection by appointment. Bidders with less than 10 feedback's must contact me before bidding or I will cancel your bid. $500 deposit due within 48 hours of auction end, full payment within 7 days of auction end. Payment by cash, wire transfer or cashier’s check. All cashier’s checks must clear before car or title will be released. Car must be picked up within 21 days of auction end unless prior arrangements are made. International bidders are welcome but shipping from car’s current location is responsibility of buyer.

Ford increasing Super Duty production by 15 percent

Fri, 31 Jan 2014

Ford has announced a hefty $80 million investment in its Kentucky Truck Plant, which is responsible for building the F-250, F-350, F-450 and F-550 versions of the Super Duty pickup. The influx of cash will add 350 jobs to the factory.
The investment is also good for a 15-percent increase in annual production thanks to retooling and other facility upgrades, which equates to an extra 55,000 units of production. Considering that Ford makes even more money off its Super Duty than it does on the hot-selling F-150, this could mean some serious coin to Ford's bottom line.
Hop below for the full press release from Ford on its latest investment.

2014 Ford Mustang GT

Fri, 17 May 2013

I was more than a year removed from my last experience with the Mustang GT and its delicious 5.0 V8 when this new 2014 example rolled up to my driveway recently. Good weather and a planned road trip across the state meant that I would get plenty of seat time in this conservatively specified example, too. In total, I logged about 400 miles in a week of driving - not a lot for some of you super commuters out there, but quite a lot for this work-from-home journalist.
The basic formula of the 5.0 has stayed the same for 2014. The 2013 model year saw a number of updates to keep the Mustang fresh until it's replaced with an all-new generation for 2015. So, for its bon voyage tour, the fifth-generation Pony Car has seen only a few modifications: a couple of new paint colors (Oxford White and Ruby Read Metallic), trim and wheel revisions and, sadly, the deletion of the Boss 302 from the Ford lineup. However, while the limited-edition Boss is likely to reappear sometime after the gen-six Mustang makes its debut in 2015, the GT Track Package cars like the one I tested provide at least a partial solution for those looking for hot laps.

Ford's first PHEV in Europe could be C-Max

Fri, Oct 17 2014

Ford could start selling a plug-in hybrid in Europe pretty soon, according to at least one of its executives. Whether it's willing to do so is another story. But if the market perks up, so will the company. The automaker can "quickly" develop a plug-in hybrid version of its Mondeo, the sister car to the Ford Fusion, Automotive News Europe says, citing Ford executive Uli Koesters. The subject of Ford selling plug-in hybrids in Europe is more vital than ever since Volkswagen recently started selling its first PHEV (a Golf) there. VW will also debut a Passat PHEV next year. Koesters was less certain about whether there was sufficient European demand to warrant a production PHEV from Ford. Europe's biggest-selling plug-in hybrid through the first half of the year was the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. That model, according to JATO Dynamics, moved almost 9,000 units through June. Toyota sold almost 4,300 Prius Plug-in Hybrids in Europe during that time period. And we can't be sure Ford's first European PHEV will be the Modeo/Fusion, either. In fact, Ford's first plug-in hybrid for Europe is more likely to be the C-Max, John Gardiner, a Ford spokesman in Europe, told AutoblogGreen. He would only say that it would be sold "in selected markets soon," without being more specific. Ford's two PHEVs in the US have been selling well this year. Through September, sales of the Fusion Energi PHEV almost tripled to 9,323 units, while Ford C-Max Energi PHEV sales were up 51 percent to 6,486 units.
