1963 Ford Thunderbird 2-door Coupe on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
Selling a 1963 Ford Thunderbird two-door hardtop with a 390 V8 engine andautomatic transmission.It has been a California car from day one: my fatherpurchased it back in the mid-1960s, so if he’s not the original owner, the caris as close to a one-owner as you’re likely to see for a car of this vintage.The car runs and drives as it should, and the odometer reads 14823 miles. Myfather had the entire drive train rebuild back in the early 2000s, but becausehe was getting on in age and wasn’t driving much anymore, it has only a fewhundred miles on it since then. The car was painted at around that time (early2000s) in the original color, but will need it again. The body is otherwise ingood condition with virtually no rust or dents. The car also comes with the realwheel skirts. The brakes were completely redone in 2016.Apart from a split inthe driver’s seat upholstery that will need attention, the original blue vinylinterior is in very good condition. In the mid-2000s, my father had a mechanicfriend remove the door panels to fix a problem with the power windows; they arein the trunk. The car has AC, power windows, and power steering, and thesteering wheel shifts to the side for easy in and out. The car is all originaland complete (no missing parts, etc.) and would make an excellent, relativelyeasy and straight-forward restoration project for the right I just don’t have the time or skills to restore it myself, so Iam hopeful its next owner will give it the restoration it deserves. I have donemy best to describe the car as accurately as I can and will do my best to answerany questions you may have. Bear in mind that the car is sold as is where iswith no warranties expressed or implied. Title is free and clear and car iscurrently registered with correct vintage black and gold CA plates.

Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks
Sun, 31 Mar 2013Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.
Ford hiring 2,200 salaried US workers this year
Fri, 11 Jan 2013With its influx of popular new products made in the US, Ford Motor Company has announced that it intends to hire 2,200 new salaried workers domestically this year. This is the biggest increase of salaried workers for Ford in the last 10 years, and it is all a part of Ford's contract commitment to the United Auto Workers union to bring 12,000 new jobs to the US by 2015.
There were no specifics as to where in the US these job openings will be, but Ford did reiterate that it will be spending $773 million on equipment upgrades and capacity expansion at six plants located in southeast Michigan; as a whole, Ford is investing a total of $6.2 billion to its US assembly plants over the next couple years. According to recently appointed president of the Americas Joe Hinrichs, the new jobs will be focused on areas such as engineering, manufacturing and computer software. Ford will post its job openings online at careers.ford.com, and it will also use social media sites like Facebook and Twitter to recruit new workers, including military veterans.

Ford F-100 'Snakebit' shown off by Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed at SEMA
Tue, 05 Nov 2013Ford, along with KISS bassist Gene Simmons and his wife, Shannon Tweed, used SEMA as a backdrop to pull the covers off Snakebit, a 1956 Ford F-100 pickup truck that's been updated with Shelby Mustang-derived styling bits and a 5.4-liter supercharged V8 engine. All 550 horsepower are funneled through a six-speed manual gearbox to the rear wheels.
Underneath the custom bodywork sits a chassis that's been stretched five inches and a bed widened and bedecked with billet machined pieces that are supposed to look like wood. The 20-inch rear and 18-inch front wheels ape those of past Shelby Mustang models. The interior is swathed in two-tone leather with a bench seat designed to look - try to act surprised - like a Shelby Mustang.
Like what you see? Bidding for the truck will take place in 2014 at an unspecified Barrett-Jackson event (we'd assume Scottsdale). Proceeds will be used to help build a children's hospital in Saskatoon, in the province of Saskatchewan, where Ms. Tweed grew up. See the high-res gallery above and the press release down below for more.
