1957 Ford Thunderbird on 2040-cars
Karns City, Pennsylvania, United States
|
This 1957 Thunderbird was pulled into a body shop in 1969 and taken apart and paint stripped and stayed in heated garage the way you see it in the pictures. I purchased it from estate approx. a year ago with intentions of restoring it. I really don't have the time due to other projects and need the room. Everything appears to be with car except for carb and air cleaner. It is a 312 Bird with a 3 speed trans.This bird is very restorable and has the typical Thunderbird rust of this era. The dash and gauges and Town&Country Radio are in very nice condition. Appears at one time they removed transmission by cutting the hump on the floor so that will need attention. There is a hole on drivers floor and drivers side of trunk floor. Frame appears to be solid with just some scale on it. Rocker will need replaced and there is a pair of rockers for it. There is also some NOS emblems and some other small stuff. Also a new carpet. The top was down all those years behind the seat and is in great condition. I feel some cleaning and some plastic cleaner for back window top would look like new. I DO NOT HAVE THE HARDTOP. Mileage is exempt on title. All glass is with car. Buyer is responsible for shipping. Car or title will not be transferred until all funds clear.I require a $500 deposit within 24hour of auction end!!!! PLEASE DO NOT BID ON THIS THUNDERBIRD IF YOU DONT INTEND TO BUY IT!!!!. ASK WIFE OR WHOEVER FIRST!!! Any questions feel free to call me at 412-629-0458 Thanks and Good Luck!!!

Also the rocker assy is not on the engine but I got a call the other night from person I got it from saying they found the rockers. I hope they are the right ones. . I cannot guarentee it till i have them in possesion. Also if you are going to restore this car you will want to rebuild the engine. |

New UAW boss Williams talks tough, vows 'no more concessions'
Sun, 08 Jun 2014Dennis Williams, the newly elected president of the UAW, had some tough words for American automakers in his inauguration speech at the 2014 UAW Convention, striking down the possibility of any additional concessions from the 400,000-strong union.
"No more concessions. We are tired of it. Enough is enough," Williams said during his speech. UAW employees have not received a raise in nearly 10 years, according to Reuters.
Considering the recent strong results for Ford, Chrysler and General Motors, the union's demands are likely to carry a bit more weight in next year's negotiations. And considering Williams' tough stance, we could be in for some fireworks once negotiations commence.
Pickup sales may hit 2M units for first time since 2007
Sat, 21 Sep 2013Even as fuel prices creep back up, trucks are still a hot item among new-vehicle shoppers. To see how popular pickup trucks still are, you don't have to look any further than how much effort automakers put into the continual one-upmanship of their trucks. Backing this fact up, USA Today is reporting that the segment could top two million sales this year - a total not matched since 2007, though still far from the pre-recession, three-million-unit levels.
Through August, the Ford F-Series continues to be the segment leader with almost 500,000 units sold, but the Chevy Silverado (328,269), Ram 1500 (234,642), GMC Sierra (122,232) and Toyota Tacoma (110,293) are all seeing at least 20-percent sales increases, helping to account for around 1.44 million truck sales so far this year - not including possible outliers like the Suzuki Equator and Chevy Avalanche.
This year alone, General Motors has completely redesigned its fullsize trucks, Ram and Toyota have significantly updated their offerings, the next-gen Ford F-150 will be out next year and Nissan is promising an all-new Titan around the same time with an eventual Cummins diesel under the hood. It would seem, then, that truck sales are poised to continue their upward trend.
Project Ugly Horse alive and kicking at Road & Track
Thu, 29 Aug 2013The hallways of the Autoblog campus are much quieter now that Zach Bowman has taken his prose, along with his welders, wrenches and hammers, over to the digital pages of Road & Track, but that doesn't mean our favorite project Mustang is gone forever. Project Ugly Horse is still coming along, and Zach has gifted us another update on his unfoxy Fox Body.
Last we saw of the Ugly Horse, Zach was strengthening up the '89 Mustang's chassis as he prepares to stuff the turbocharged, direct-injected EcoBoost engine of a Ford Focus ST under the hood. First things first, the old mill must go. Head on over to Road & Track to catch the latest chapter of Project Ugly Horse.
