1986 Ford Thunderbird Base Sedan 2-door 5.0l on 2040-cars
White Marsh, Maryland, United States
|
I've decided to sell my 1986 Ford Thunderbird Base model that only has 85,720 Actual Miles!! I bought this car last year as a back up vehicle but no longer need it since I purchased another car. Comes equipped with an EFI 5.0 that runs great! Power windows; power locks (not working-needs Actuators?); power both seats; power antenna; cruise; tilt; cold a/c; hot heat; keyless entry...manual sunroof that was installed by previous owner (does NOT leak). Has been painted a few years ago by a previous owner, does have a few chips and scratches but shows/shines well! Absolutely NO rust! Non smokers! The covers were put on the front seats only to protect them...driver seat has a couple small tears right next to where your left leg would rest, probably from sliding in and out of the car. The passenger seat is in excellent condition. The stock stereo does work but the left front chanel goes in and out sometimes. The headliner around the sunroof has tears in it from probably being pulled too tight when it was installed??? Please keep in mind that this Bird IS 28+ years old and does have a few "Bumps and Bruises"...I try to explain any/all problems the best way I know how. If you have ANY questions, please ask before placing bid. The fuel gauge and temp gauge do not work, I think it may be the voltage regulator in the instrument cluster, but not sure. I just fill it up when the Tripometer reaches 300 or so miles...it has the 22 gallon tank! Previous owner removed the cats and ran a true dual exhaust which sounds pretty good. It does shift kinda hard from 3rd to 4th...has been like this since I bought it from the previous owner. I did do a pan drop on the transmission, change the filter and fluid about 800 miles ago. The Dashboard has cracks from aging outdoors...The tires have around 80% tread left, and the brakes stop this Bird with NO pulling. It could use a front end alignment, the steering wheel is not quite centered and it pulls just a little to the right, but there is no uneven wear on the front tires. Like I said before, this T-Bird runs great and could easily be used as a daily driver.

2015 Ford Focus sedan shows its fresh face in New York
Wed, 16 Apr 2014That handsome fellow you see above is the 2015 Ford Focus sedan. We liked the looks of the 2014 Focus, and the updates for 2015 only improve things to our eyes, with the adoption of the Aston Martin-inspired grille that has been permeating Ford's lineup these last few years. Sweeping, slightly bulbous headlamps join a revised, more demure lower grille opening to round out the styling updates up front. The rest of the car's look is just slightly massaged, including new taillamp clusters that look much like they did last year.
New for 2015 is the availability of Ford's 1.0-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine, mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission. There's also a new SE Sport Package that adds more aggressive suspension tuning, paddle shifters (when equipped with Ford's six-speed dual-clutch automatic) and a few body kit bits and pieces. Rounding out the mechanical changes are an updated electronic steering rack that promises better feel, suspension tweaks to make the ride more comfortable and some software updates designed to make the dual-clutch gearbox better behave itself.
In addition, inside there are a few interior upgrades, as well as some added comfort and safety tech that includes available blind-spot detection and lane-keeping assist, along with other more incremental changes that all add up to a better vehicle. We suggest you check out the official press release below for all the details, but not before scrolling through our image gallery of live shots above.
Ford recalls select Explorer, E-Series vans
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Just a few days ago we brought you news that Ford had issued a recall on 28,000 units of the Edge crossover for problems related to the fuel line. But now the Blue Oval has issued recall notices on two more of its larger vehicles.
The first relates to the Explorer, 395 examples of which from the 2011 and 2012 model years were found to have problems with their steering systems if they underwent service after September 1, 2013. An apparent software glitch could lock the steering gear, preventing the driver from steering the vehicle and thereby increasing the risk of a crash. As a result, Ford dealers are being instructed to check their records to identify the problematic vehicles and bring them in to have the steering gear replaced. Details of the recall can be found in the PDF linked here.
The second problem revolves around E-Series vans that may develop bubbles in their windshields under hot temperatures. The decrease in visibility through the problematic windshield could - you guessed it - "increase the risk of a crash." As a result, Ford is calling in 4,532 units of the E-150, E-250, E-350 and E-450 vans built in the relatively short window between May 12 and May 26, 2011. Details of this recall can be found in the notice below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide
Wed, 10 Apr 2013Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.
