Up for sale is a 1955 Ford Thunderbird. This car has had a frame off restoration. Everything has been replaced or rebuilt. On the exterior, the paint is a new factory raven black and the chrome is perfect or brand new. The convertible is a hardtop, but also includes a black tonnaeu cover for summer time driving; new whitewall tires and original hubcaps complete the exterior restoration. For the interior, seats are black and white, brand new and completely re-upholsterd. All electrical equipment has been upgraded, along with all of the gauges. A 200 watt four speaker stereo is installed, with cassette player and auxiliary hook up, for MP3 or CD players. Under the hood is a completely rebuilt 292 cu. in. V8 automatic engine with all new accessories (water pump, fuel pump, coils, etc); the water pump has a higher output pulley for much improved cooling to prevent overheating while on the highway or while idling. This vehicle was also converted from a 6V generator to a 12V alternator electrical system. Additional special upgrades include: "Greendot" three speed automatic transmission and electric ignition vs. points. All work on the vehicle has been professionally done at a cost of over $56,000, with less than 500 miles driven since restoration began. Because of personal health circumstances, I will be selling this car at well below the price put into it. This listing is being posted by my nephew, so please be patient with response times regarding email inquiries. For an immediate response, please call me directly at 951-538-0858.

Over the past two decades, machines like the Viper Venom 550, Ford GT 1000 Twin Turbo, HPE 700 LS9 Camaro and the almighty Venom GT have emerged from the Hennessey Performance garage.

George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]
Sun, 20 Jan 2013Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.
