1957 Ford Thunderbird 312 V8 on 2040-cars
Jersey City, New Jersey, United States
When I say original, I mean paint, both top, TIRES, spare, ignition wires, distributor, trunk mat, interior,
bumpers, chrome, and on and on. I did replaced the water pump, fuel pump, points, plugs, and master cylinder with
correct OEM parts, but I kept all of the original date coded items for the new owner should they want to rebuild
them. The soft top is almost like new and I have the factory hard top and fender skirts, both in amazing original
condition. Absolutely no rust or dents. Gauges look stunning and the power windows work flawlessly. The only
thing that doesn't work is the Town and Country Radio. It turns on and the station auto search feature works, but
the radio can't lock onto a station. Otherwise, everything else works as it should. A true, one family owned
survivor which would be right at home in the Smithonian museum. If you are a collector, and want a piece of
Americana automotive history, then this car is for you. A once in a lifetime opportunity.

Mustang-themed pinball game debuting in Chicago [w/video]
Wed, 05 Feb 2014Believe it or not, but new pinball machines are still being made. Chicago-based Stern Pinball still makes them and has found a niche selling modern machines to individual buyers and arcade distributors. For its latest cabinet, Stern partnered with Ford to create a pinball game that pays homage to the 50th anniversary of the Mustang, including the next generation. The new machine is being unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6 and goes on sale in March.
Stern is offering the machine in three variants. The pro-level machine is meant for arcades and public spaces and retails for $4,995. All of them come with background and cabinet art by Camilo Pardo, who designed the Ford GT, and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust is the game's announcer. Depending on where players shoot the ball, they activate events that simulate drag racing, rallying, drifting and racing the Mustang, and hitting targets lets players shift the gears up and down.
An upgraded, premium table with added art will be added later for pinball machine collectors. The third model is a signed, special edition with art of the 1965 Mustang and 2015 Mustang on the machine and chrome and Mustang badges on the speaker grilles. Prices for these editions will be announced later.
A tribute to William Clay Ford
Tue, 11 Mar 2014The passing of William Clay Ford has been a big event for the company he spent most of his life helping run. Ford spent 57 years working for his family's company. Considering the Blue Oval has been around for over 100 years, WCF's passing is the end of an era for the Dearborn-based manufacturer.
Ford's YouTube channel has issued a short memorial video highlighting the life of the longest-lived grandson of company founder Henry Ford. It follows William Clay from his time as a boy, showing him alongside his grandfather, through his younger years, and into his twilight, as the patriarch of the Ford family.
Take a look below for this touching memorial video on William Clay Ford.
Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company
Thu, 03 Oct 2013
That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.
