1960 Ford Thunderbird Convertible.  I have a clear, original, Utah title in my name.  Please look closely at all of the photos. This is a classic "Square Bird" that needs a complete restoration.  It has been sitting for several years.  With this in mind, I want to explain what is needed. I want the new owner to know exactly what they are getting.  First the good - 1. The original drive train is in the car and the engine appears to be in good shape. The radiator has been removed, but comes with the car. 2. The car is very complete, but many of the trim pieces will need chrome work. 3. The floors are not rusted through and the trunk floor is in good shape. 4. The hard to find parts for the convertible top are complete, but need work. 5. The car rolls freely and can be loaded easily on a trailer or transport truck.  On the negative side - 1. The car has been sitting for several years and doesn't currently run. 2.  There is rust in the rockers that will need repair as well as some bondo cracking on the driver's side rear fender. 3. The interior is complete, but needs a complete restoration. The dash pad is dirty, but not cracked. 4. The convertible top is tattered, and the power mechanism will need repair. 5. It is missing the spare tire.  6. The windshield has scratches from the wiper blade.Again, please look closely at all of the photos. I highly value my 100% positive feedback score on Ebay, and I want the new owner to be satisfied with the car.  I'm not a car dealer. I have too many Thunderbird projects and I don't have the time or funds to restore this car.  The reserve is substantially less than cars value.

If you have any questions about my 1960 Thunderbird convertible, please email them to me or give me a call.  My home phone number is (801) 745-0599. If you have less than 5 positive feedbacks on your Ebay feedback score, please email me before bidding.  I want this to be a good, straightforward, auction.  Good luck bidding and I hope someone will restore this classic Thunderbird back to its former glory.

2014 Holman & Moody 50th Anniversary TdF Ford Mustang

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

If you're a fan of Ford racing history, a Mustang worshiper or even just an avid follower of our yearly SEMA coverage, you may have heard the back story on the Race Red Mustang you see above. Back in 1964, Holman & Moody was tapped by the English Alan Mann Racing Team to race-prep three Mustangs for competition in the incredibly arduous 4,000-mile Tour de France Automobile rally. Competing mainly against Jaguar MkII saloons over 10 days and 17 stages, the H&M Mustangs took the top two places in the Touring class and the first-ever racing win for Ford's pony car.
Though the history of that first Mustang win hasn't been incredibly well known here in the States, the subsequent decades have seen plenty of racy versions of the car come and go. Last year at the SEMA show, we covered the brief debut of this living tribute to that piece of racing lore, the Holman & Moody 50th Anniversary TdF Mustang.
This limited-edition Mustang represents a kind of new venture for H&M, as the legendary racing shop has spent the last few decades earning its keep largely by restoring vintage racing cars. The urge to get back into the world of Ford and Mustang was powerful, however, what with the car's 50th anniversary looming and the current generation of 'Stang just about out the door.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.

Fields 'required' to use private aircraft, could make $5.25M as Ford CEO this year

Thu, 03 Jul 2014

Mark Fields' travels on the friendly skies will soon be a relatively personal affair, as the new CEO at Ford will be required to resume air travel via the company's private planes. Fields caught plenty of flak in 2007 for flying on the company's dime to visit his family in Florida. He's since flown commercial.
According to Ford spokesperson Susan Krusel, who spoke to Bloomberg, Fields (pictured above right, with Bill Ford, Jr. at center and Alan Mulally at left) will switch to private travel "for safety and to maximize his availability for company business." In addition to his new travel arrangements, the 53-year-old exec's salary and bonuses have been revealed.
Regulatory filings by Ford revealed that Fields, whose first day in the big chair was July 1, will receive a base salary this year of $1.25 million and he'll be eligible for $3.5 million in bonuses, both of which are lower than Alan Mulally's $2 million salary and $5.88 million in bonuses received last year. That's also lower than General Motors CEO Mary Barra's alleged $1.6-million salary and considerably less than Sergio Marchionne's $3.19-million fixed salary from Fiat. Despite falling short of other CEOs, Fields' new pay still represents a 33-percent increase over his pay as Chief Operating Officer.
