1961 Ford Thunderbird

This beautiful 1961 Ford T-Bird was purchased with the intention of showing it this up-coming car show season, but it doesn't appear myself or my family will be showing this one as much as we would like.  Therefore, I would like to give someone else an opportunity to own this car great car.

Beautiful colors and a nice original Bird.  Only 93,000 miles, numbers matching, and garage kept it's entire life.  Older restoration of a nice original car that still looks good and drives well.  This will be a good investment and a fun car for the next owner :-)


Details/Features:

  • 390ci V8 Engine (300 hp, 4 BBL) 
  • Cruise-O-Matic Transmission (Automatic)
  • Power Steering
  • Power Brakes

  • Power Seat
  • Deluxe Radio
  • "Swing Away" Steering Wheel
  • Dual Exhaust 
  • Windshield Washer

The engine runs great, makes good power, and starts well every time.  The transmission also shifts well.  The car gets down the road and will flow with modern traffic effortlessly.  All the gauges, lights, and horn work (clock is correct only twice a day).  Original radio works too!  Steers and stops with ease.  It is ready to drive and enjoy right away.

This Ford is a nice original survivor car that has been painted many years ago.  It does have chips, scratches, and flaws due to age and driving.  Lots of great looking factory original chrome and other unrestored original features.  Good floors and under-carriage.  Needs a new cloth top eventually and some trouble shooting to get the power top mechanism going again (relay?).  The interior is beautiful!  Seats have been re-upholstered in the not too distant past.  Overall, it's a sharp looking and driving Ford.  NOT A PERFECT CAR, but not priced like one ...  Please bid what you wish to pay (I may add a "Buy it now" price later in the listing).

Original carburetor, air cleaner, and books included.

Ford going bonkers at SEMA with 57 showcars

Sat, 19 Oct 2013

Ford always shows up in force at the SEMA Show, but this year's tally of 57 custom-tuned cars, trucks and vans is more than we can ever recall the Blue Oval bringing. Ford will introduce 28 of its project vehicles in its "Dreamcase" ahead of next month's show. The first batch of eight you'll find here with the remaining vehicles trickling into public view over the next couple of weeks.
This first group of cars includes a Fiesta, four Fiesta ST hatchbacks and a trio of Mustang show cars styled and tuned to varying degrees all by different aftermarket companies. Tanner Foust, Nitto Tire, 3dCarbon and Ice Nine Group are some of the more familiar names affixed to these cars. Our favorite so far is the Hollywood Hot Rods Mustang convertible (shown above) with its removable aluminum top and methanol-injected, 750-horsepower 5.0-liter V8.
Scroll down for all the details on these Fiestas and Mustangs, and stay tuned for more info on Ford's SEMA line, which will include custom versions of the Focus ST, Fusion, Transit Connect, F-150 and Super Duty.

Ford begins testing right-hand-drive Mustang

Wed, 20 Aug 2014

Ford has officially kicked off testing of the right-hand-drive variant of its sixth-generation, 2015 Mustang, according to a statement issued by the company, which came with the above photo.
According to Ford, this will mark the first time a right-hand-drive 'Stang has traveled down the company's assembly line alongside its LHD brethren. It is far from the first of the legendary pony cars to feature its wheel on the wrong side, though, as converters in RHD markets across the globe have been making swaps for years.
Ford is planning on using the white, droptop Mustang for RHD development ahead of the car's arrival in the UK, Australia and South Africa, among other markets. Scroll down for the official press blast.
