1967 Ford Thunderbird 2 Dr. "southern California Car Since New" 2nd Owner on 2040-cars
Escondido, California, United States
|
I bought this car from my daughters boyfriend. He was needing money for college last fall and wasn't in a postion to be able to work on it. He was given the car by his great grandpa who purchased it new. It has always been in the north Glendora, CA area. Stored inside most of the time so the paint is extremely good for the year.
Grandpa was a L.A. county mechanic so it's been maintained well and the engine and rans have been rebuilt. It drives great on the freeway at 80 and handles good. (kind of a pillowy ride honestly) It's currently insured, registered and driven to work occasionally, I'd say it could be driven across the country but the wipers need some attention first. (on these T-birds they were run off the power steering and they won't shut off. I think the valve is staying shut so it won't shut off the fluid). Tires and brakes are good we've just had the Brake booster and master cylinder rebuilt locally here in San Diego. Paint is original except for a couple of spots. ( I've included pictures of these areas so you can see for yourself). windshield has a crack top to bottom right in the center. (not in eye's view, but it's there). Seats, headliner and carpet are nice.(drivers door panel inner plastic where it mounts is cracked but with some patience should be repairable) I've taken quite a few pictures but if you want to see more let me know. I have 5 other classics so could use the room and would like to see someone enjoy it. Good luck thanks for looking! Greg I have a clear title and can pick you up at the San diego airport so you can drive it home or coordinate shipping if you'd rather go that route. |

2015 Ford F-150 spied in the rain
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Standing as quite a contrast from the spy shots of the 2015 Ford Mustang we saw earlier today, our spies also sent along these pictures of the next-generation F-150 pickup out testing in its (heavily camouflaged) full prototype body. Much of the new truck's design is hidden under the bulky coveralls, but we expect a lot of its new lines to be inspired by the Atlas concept that debuted at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
Perhaps the biggest unknown surrounding the new F-150 is what, exactly, its body will be made of. Earlier reports have suggested that lightweight aluminum materials may be used throughout, offering a serious reduction in weight versus previous models. But Ford engineers will need to be careful, though, as they need to keep a tight rein on costs while preserving class-competitive (if not class-leading) towing and payload capacity.
On the powertrain front, the new F-150 will undoubtedly carry on with EcoBoost engines, and we'd bet on a normally aspirated V8 as well. A diesel option hasn't been confirmed, but we wouldn't be surprised to see one some time in the truck's lifecycle. Mum's the word on when the production F-150 will be revealed, but our best guess is that we'll see it at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.
NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey
Wed, 09 Jan 2013The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.
Jay Leno sees how the other half lives with CHP cop cars new and old
Mon, 01 Jul 2013Comedian Jay Leno is changing gears from driving fast cars to checking out some of the police cruisers that regularly chase down and dish out punishment to those fast cars. In this episode of Jay Leno's Garage, we get the lowdown on the modifications made to the Ford Explorer for the Interceptor package (which looks pretty tough in its California Highway Patrol livery).
The new Ford is cool, but cooler still are the pack of classic CHP cars that Jay has along for the episode. A 1982 Mustang, 1966 Dodge Polara, 1970 Mercury Monterey and 2000 Crown Victoria are all in the shop. Better still, Jay lays out an argument for ones of the classic cruisers as the best cop car of all time. Get your guesses in now, and then scroll down to watch and learn.
