Las Vegas, Nevada, United States

NV CAR DEALER # 40339, Vin # 2Y83Z129935, True Mileage Unknown -- This is a One-of-a-kind Custom Convertible Tonneau Ford T-Bird. The top was skillfully removed a couple of owners ago and a look-a-like padded tonneau was added to cover up the back seats to create a two seat look sports roadster..(the back seat is still under the tonneau!), but you can own this one for a fraction of what a true Sports Roadster would cost.. and again, this bird is custom one of a kind. The current owner has kept this car in the family for many years.. and it was originally and still is a Las Vegas car, so that means very little to no rust... Current owner also has the (vinyl padded) Hard top and rear glass window that was removed in such a way that it can be put back on, if the need ever arises... This bird has new drum brakes only about 40 miles ago... it has a strong running Edelbrock 650 4 Barrel carb. But the owner still has the original Holley carb and Air Intake. It has a more modern Electronic Ignition so no need to adjust points. It has a new exhaust and the undercarriage is completely undercoated to prevent rust and keep down road noise and vibrations... Chrome wheels & Baby Moon hubcaps... Swing away steering wheel for easy entry after a big meal... lol... We will add a photo of the original roof soon... PS this car does not have a soft convertible top, so plan accordingly. Like any other vintage cars, there may be other things that we can not predict about the condition of the car, but we can tell that overall it's a very cool looking and great running, driver-quality, rocket age, bullet nose T-bird. Just buy it and prepare for TAKE-OFF !!!! Please note, I am a boutique classic car dealer in Nevada, so any Nevada residents who purchase this car to register in Nevada will need to pay a 8.1 % Nevada sales tax and a $99 documentation fee... but I have taken this into consideration in the great-value pricing of this car. Come to Vegas to party and drive home an incredible vehicle that is quite a lot of class, fun and quality for the money !

European car sales up 8% in February
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.

Ford cranks up '32 Ford body production
Tue, 14 Jan 2014If you're going to build your own hot rod, you'll want to start with a '32 Ford 5-Window Coupe. Favored by American servicemen returning from World War II, the '32 Ford remains the very icon of the hot rod to this day. The trouble is there were only so many of them made in the first place, and finding one today can be a challenge. That's where reproduction models come in.
The aftermarket is replete with companies that will sell you a fiberglass body in the form of a '32 Ford coupe, but quality can be hit or miss. So to help meet demand among hot rod builders and enthusiasts, Ford has teamed up with United Pacific Industries to offer officially licensed body shells.
Announced at the SEMA show in November, the '32 Ford 5-Window Coupe body is made from stamped steel according to original specifications from original machinery where possible or reproduced machinery built to the same original specifications where necessary. The bodies are ready to accept vintage powertrains or crate motors from the Ford Racing catalog, and join the 9,000 other parts offered in the Ford Component Sales catalog - including similar reproduction bodies available for the 1965-70 Mustang and 1940 Ford Coupe. From there, the proverbial sky's the limit.
