1986 Ford Thunderbird 5.0 2 Door Elan- This car is in average or better condition for the year and has 79000 original miles on it. The interior is good, just needs cleaned up. The dash is good. The headliner is real good. The car has bucket seats woth no tears and a floor console. The car was painted shortly before I bought it and looks real good . The car has power steering and air conditioning. Car has new battery. This is a 5.0 V-8 engine with automatic transmission that works great. Power windows and door locks. I am the 3rd owner. The first and 2nd owner were a mother and son. I recently had the car tuned up and had the brakes worked on. I also had the valve cover gaskets replaced because they leaking a small amoutn of oil. The undercarriage is in real good shape with no significant rust. The car starts right up, even in cold weather. This car would be an easy restore. Items that car needs addressed are gas gauge doesn't work, the aluminum wheels need cleaned up professionally, and when it was painted some of the molding was not put back on tight as it should be. Also front molding on bumper should be repainted. I was going to restore it myself, but have way to many other car projects at this time. I am trying to make room, so I don't take up so much garage space. Look on Ebay, these cars are very scacre with a V-8 and bucket seat. These cars are definitely collectors items now and you can put on antique tags to get away from high insurance premium. I have antique tags on it and it costs me about $75 a year for full coverage insurance. I have advertised the car in several other venues, and if sold in one of those other sources, have the right to pull the listing at that time. This is a NO Reserve, No Return, No Money Back, As Is Auction. If you have any questions, you can email me at cgsputtershop@comcast.net You must have a PayPal account to bid on this car and have no more then 2 negative feedback in the last 6 months. I would like to have a $750 deposit within 24 hours by PAYPAL at the end of the sale. The car must be paid for in total within 5 days after the end of the sale by cash or certified check before it can be picked up. Buyer is responsible for the shipping and cost of shipping of the car. Car has a clear title. I will assist in helping arrange pick up. If you are a PA Buyer there will be 6% sales tax added at time of transfer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is being Re-Listed due to NO PAYMENT OF DEPOSIT FROM BIDDER. Please Note: This car was SOLD 2 days ago, before this Re-List, but the NO FEEDBACK Buyer *who was just bidding for fun, did not pay the deposit , his loss and your chance to bid again. In my world, what the last bidder did, not honoring a contract, is called FRAUD. That is the last time I will accept any bids from somebody with less then at least 5 feedbacks, and those 5 feedbacks must be 100%. Thanks, CGS

Ford 1.0L takes third-straight International Engine of the Year award
Thu, 26 Jun 2014Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost is proving to be The Little Engine That Could, and it continues to acquit itself well, finding favor as one of the best powerplants in the world. To confirm it yet again, the tiny mill just won the International Engine of the Year award for the third year in a row, likewise also nabbing the title in the Sub 1.0-liter category.
Packing 123 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque with overboost (125 lb-ft normally), the tiny engine combines impressive power in a size small enough to be a carry-on item for a commercial flight. US buyers only got a taste of the award winner in the 2014 Fiesta, while the 1.0 EcoBoost has been available throughout the Ford lineup in Europe for a few years now. American sales have reportedly been strong, however, and next up in the US, the mill will find its way into the 2015 Focus.
The panel of 82 jury members from 34 countries also named the Mercedes-AMG 2.0-liter turbo found in the A45, CLA45 and GLA45 AMG models with 355 hp and 332 lb-ft as the best New Engine for 2014. The electric powertrain from Tesla won Green Engine prize, and the 4.5-liter V8 from the Ferrari 458 Italia took home the honor of top Performance Engine yet again. You can check out all the winners below, and scroll down further to read Ford's celebratory announcement of its award.
Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4
Fri, 26 Sep 2014We 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.
Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 has a bit of a dyno issue
Tue, 28 May 2013We're of the mind that each and every dyno should come with Murphy's Law painted in big, visible letters down the side. For every ten successful dyno runs out there, it seems there's one where events to horribly wrong. Take, for example, the video below. The clip shows what happens when a Ford Shelby GT500 and a mobile dyno have a bit of a disagreement at the Performance Expo 24 in Sherbrooke, Quebec. We won't spoil the results for you, but we will say there's some substantial carnage involved.
It's unclear just how much damage ensues from the dust up or whether anyone was harmed in the incident, but from the looks of things, everyone made it out without serious injury. If only we could say the same for the machines involved. Check out the video below.
