Listing today is for my 1983 T-Bird Heritage Edition. I have owned this car since 2008 and it had approx 75k miles on it, today it has 91k on it. We purchased this car for my sons 1st car and it served its purpose very well never having any issues. He has since moved on to college and roped me into getting him a new car so for the past couple years it has only been driven sparingly and sits in my garage covered up but due to the possibility of a change in careers its time to unload some of my cars as I cant drive them all. Since owning the car numerous items have been repaired or replaced. Some of the items I recall at the moment are a new heater core, new brakes, headliner was replaced, window motors replaced, new tires. Car originally had steel wheels and hubcaps and now has mustang turbine rims on it. If you want I believe I still have the original steel wheels and I know I have the caps. I believe I am the 4th owner of the car. The car started out in CA and then was in PA, the gentleman I purchased it from only owned it a short time and purchased it from a family member. Since I have owned it it has never seen snow and I don't believe it was ever winter driven as the underside is very clean and rust free. The doors are solid and not rotted out at the bottoms like typical fox body birds. Car has a/c but it hasn't worked since I've owned it and never looked to see what was needed. The window run channels and dew wipes are perfect and not dried out or cracked. The car has keypad entry which works with the original ford code sticker still in the trunk. I have the original owners manual along with some factory Ford service manuals. Right now as the car sits the grille on it is painted to match the car but I also have a chrome original grille that goes with the car. Both grilles have the correct turquoise T-Bird emblem that was used on the Heritage editions. Because it is a Heritage it also has the coach lamps. They lit faintly when I bought the car but now just give out a faint hum which I believe signifies a bad invertor in them which can be repaired with a little electrical know how. The only item the car needs at the moment is a muffler.  Due to my change in careers and moving I have listed this with a low reserve and will consider the high bid if reserve not met so bid to win. If you have any questions or want any other pictures just ask and I will get them as soon as I can.

1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express in Generation Gap showdown with 1933 Ford Pickup

Fri, 18 Jul 2014

Auto enthusiasts love a good debate, whether it's Mustang versus Camaro or Ferrari against Lamborghini. But how about a battle between two very different vintages of classic pickup trucks? In this case, the fight is between a 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express and a 1933 Ford Model 46 truck with a flathead V8.
The shootout comes courtesy of the internet series Generation Gap, and its concept is super-simple. One guy prefers classics, and the other likes newer rides. They choose a category, pick two vehicles and put them head to head. In this case, neither is exactly modern, though. The Ford is more than old enough to receive Social Security checks, and the Dodge is hardly a young whippersnapper.
Other than both being pickups, these two models were made to serve very different functions. The Li'l Red Express was basically the progenitor of today's muscle trucks, with a big V8 that made it one of the quickest new models in its day (admittedly, 1979 was a rough time for automotive performance). On the other hand, the '33 Ford was just meant to work, with little pretense for anything else. One of the hosts describes it as "the simplest, most difficult" vehicle he's driven because of the tricky double clutchwork necessary to shift gears. Scroll down to watch the video and try to decide which of these two American classics you would rather have in your garage.
