1965 Ford Thunderbird Base Hardtop 2-door 6.4l on 2040-cars
Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States
|
In this auction I am selling one 1965 Ford Thunderbird. For its day this vehicle was fully loaded; Power seats, power windows, power steering, power brakes, air conditioning and a sliding steering Colum. It is green with a black vinyl top. The top is in excellent condition with no rips or tears and no rust damage. The interior is black leather and very close to perfect. The vinyl dash is also excellent with no cracks. The vinyl on the drivers door handle has tearing. The headliner has two our three small holes in it where unfortunately a mouse made a home at some point. He doesn't reside there anymore. I have limited knowledge when it comes to cars but I will do my best to described what I see. The body has some minor dents and some rust. The chrome to me looks awesome for a car that is 50 years old. It defiantly will need a paint job when the body work is done. She needs a new set of tires. Has a 390 CI. Engine with the gold tappet covers and air cleaner, which I was told by a mechanic means that this is the High Output engine with 300 Horsepower. She fires up with the first turn of the key. The engine and transmission are strong. PayPal deposit at auctions end. I suggest taking her home on a flatbed to be safe. Please ask questions if you have any. All matching numbers, A very sweet old car. Thank you.

2014 Ford Mustang GT
Fri, 17 May 2013I was more than a year removed from my last experience with the Mustang GT and its delicious 5.0 V8 when this new 2014 example rolled up to my driveway recently. Good weather and a planned road trip across the state meant that I would get plenty of seat time in this conservatively specified example, too. In total, I logged about 400 miles in a week of driving - not a lot for some of you super commuters out there, but quite a lot for this work-from-home journalist.
The basic formula of the 5.0 has stayed the same for 2014. The 2013 model year saw a number of updates to keep the Mustang fresh until it's replaced with an all-new generation for 2015. So, for its bon voyage tour, the fifth-generation Pony Car has seen only a few modifications: a couple of new paint colors (Oxford White and Ruby Read Metallic), trim and wheel revisions and, sadly, the deletion of the Boss 302 from the Ford lineup. However, while the limited-edition Boss is likely to reappear sometime after the gen-six Mustang makes its debut in 2015, the GT Track Package cars like the one I tested provide at least a partial solution for those looking for hot laps.
Driving Notes
2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid recalled over lack of roof padding
Mon, 29 Jul 2013Ford is recalling 33,021 units of its 2013 C-Max Hybrid not equipped with optional panoramic roof panels. During testing, the model in question returned testing results for occupant head injuries that fell outside of criteria laid out in the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. The issue puts occupants at greater risk of injury in the event of a crash if they are in an affected car.
The recall will begin August 19, at which time C-Max Hybrid owners can take their cars to dealers to have energy-absorbent material installed between the headliner and roof. The bulletin below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has more information.
2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 15 Oct 2013I'm not overly inclined to professional jealousy, as a rule. Sure, I go a bit green around the eyes when Ramsey draws the 911 GT3 trip to Weissach, Harley is tapped-in to drive a completely stunning Porsche 911 by Singer, or, you know, Drew Phillips gets to shoot a Lamborghini Veneno in the middle of a desert like some sort of sheik. I hate you guys...
Honestly though, one of the new car events that dug me the most, was when our Steven J. Ewing got to fling the Ford Fiesta ST around some hot corner of Europe. What goes around comes around, I suppose, as Mr. Ewing himself espoused an envious nature of the Focus ST trip that came before.
The good news in all this covetous intra-office behavior? All the cars mentioned, and specifically the Fiesta ST, are just wonderful to drive. I can say that with more confidence than ever now, having joined Ford for a good bit of Fiesta-flinging myself. In my case, the locale was slightly more pedestrian (Michigan not Portugal), and the car in question was the five-door version of the Fiesta ST that we get here in The States, as opposed to the three-door number they get across the pond.
