1986 FORD THUNDERBIRD-78231.7 ORIGIINAL MILES FIX OR PARTS DESCRIPTION -For your consideration is this 1986 Ford Thunderbird in used condition. I purchased this car about 3 years ago from the estate of the original owner with 58,598 original miles on it.This car has been a daily driver since I bought it. Last week on 7-17-14 I drove it home from work and parked it,a couple hours later I went out to leave and it wouldn't start.The car turns over fine but doesn't fire. I don't like working on cars and only do what I feel comfortable doing. I have a buddy that works on cars and he checked it out.He says the fuel pump is shot on the car. This is a tank mounted pump and would require dropping the gas tank to repair it. A local auto parts store says the pump is about $100 plus shipping. We found the gas pump safety switch in the trunk and it was not tripped. I even bypassed the switch and car will not start. The other issue is the drivers seatbelt stationary part(2nd to last pic) is broken. A spring inside must be broken belt will not lock in. I had a salvage yard search for one and they couldn't find it. The original radio was shot and I put a Pioneer stereo in the car. I'm going to keep the stereo so car will have no radio in it. Someone who likes to work on cars could get this running and get alot of driving out of it.Car has no dents but some rust along rockers. Air conditioning and heat both work fine. Car is located in central Iowa and can be picked up there. Half of payment due at auction end,balance paid when car is picked up. I have clear title and will sign it over when you pick up car. I would like the car gone within 30 days of auction close. Feel free to email or call with any questions. My cell is 515-297-1289 and ask for Don. Best to call after 3:30 central time |

Watch Tanner Foust hustle the Fiesta ST 'round the 'Ring
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The last time we saw Tanner Foust at the Nürburgring he was sloshing an SVT Raptor from kerb to kerb. Sticking with Ford but swapping keys, this time the drift champion and Top Gear USA host goes to the opposite end of the manufacturer's tuner garage and plucks a Fiesta ST for 'Ring duty.
The 179-horsepower front-wheel-driver acquits itself well by the end of the video. But be warned, Foust doesn't set a 'Ring time and it's shot like a commercial... because that's what it is. Still, you can enjoy all two minutes and 31 seconds of it below.
2015 Ford F-150 spied in the rain
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Standing as quite a contrast from the spy shots of the 2015 Ford Mustang we saw earlier today, our spies also sent along these pictures of the next-generation F-150 pickup out testing in its (heavily camouflaged) full prototype body. Much of the new truck's design is hidden under the bulky coveralls, but we expect a lot of its new lines to be inspired by the Atlas concept that debuted at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
Perhaps the biggest unknown surrounding the new F-150 is what, exactly, its body will be made of. Earlier reports have suggested that lightweight aluminum materials may be used throughout, offering a serious reduction in weight versus previous models. But Ford engineers will need to be careful, though, as they need to keep a tight rein on costs while preserving class-competitive (if not class-leading) towing and payload capacity.
On the powertrain front, the new F-150 will undoubtedly carry on with EcoBoost engines, and we'd bet on a normally aspirated V8 as well. A diesel option hasn't been confirmed, but we wouldn't be surprised to see one some time in the truck's lifecycle. Mum's the word on when the production F-150 will be revealed, but our best guess is that we'll see it at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.
Bill Ford augments his power by nearly doubling stake of supervoting shares
Fri, 28 Jun 2013Bill Ford Jr. has more sway than ever over the automaker that bears his surname, as the great-grandson of Ford's founder has reportedly doubled is holdings of Class B Ford stock. According to a report from Reuters (which cites a newly discovered securities filing), he acquired some 3.7 million Class B shares from an unnamed family member.
Class B shares of Ford stock are held by descendants of Henry Ford and offer expanded voting power to their holders - Bill Ford Jr. now controls roughly 11.5 percent of the total Class B pool. Ford Jr. is also a one of five trustees that manage a voting trust that oversees the majority of these "supervoting" shares. In total, Reuters reports there are 71 million Class B shares that account for 40 percent of the voting power in the company, despite making up just 2 percent of the total volume of all Ford stock.
Ford Jr. served as Ford's CEO until 2006, when he stepped down to hire and make space for current CEO, Alan Mulally. The move to consolidate Ford family voting power, at least somewhat, is seen by many as a comforting sign with Mulally's departure from the company likely to happen in the next several years.
