1980 Ford Thunderbird, Silver Anniversary on 2040-cars

Year:1980 Mileage:75000
Location:

Jamestown, New York, United States

Jamestown, New York, United States

 Listing my Silver Anniversary Bird for sale. These were mid year special cars produced to celebrate 25 years of T Birds. They only made 1623 of them so it is a pretty rare car, combine that with this car having a factory sunroof and you are nearing one of a kind. This car has all the special badging for the anniversary cars from the carriage lights to trunk emblem to the simulated crystal cut hood emblem. The interior is the plush velour with the extra deep cut pile carpet with burlwood dash trim and the leather wrapped steering wheel. The car had 73xxx miles on it when we bought it and the only miles on it since then were the miles I put on it driving it home from the middle of the country. I brought it home and put it in my garage with about a dozen other birds and that was it. I have now decided I want to get a Vette so I am clearing out my T-Birds to do so. This car is about as original as the day it left Ford back in 1980. If you have any questions or would like some other pictures just ask and I can do that.  This is listed with a reserve but depending on where it goes in my search for another toy and where the bids go I might consider a high bid at end. I don't need or want any trade unless it is a corvette, then I might be interested.    here are the options on the car

302 V8 with automatic overdrive

a/c (unsure if works)

power windows, door locks, 6 way power drivers seat

power antenna

tilt wheel with cruise control

keyless entry

auto headlights with cornering lights

illuminated entry

dual remote mirrors

digital dash(fuel guage has issue)

am/fm cassette with premium sound

built in factory cb radio

built in factory garage door opener

factory flip up or pull out moonroof with storage bag

TRX suspension package with Michelin TRX wheels, black walls on the car and another complete set of wheels with the Michelin whitewalls. Very expensive!

This car is very presentable and an amazing original example, that being said it does have its stone chips and such as it was a driven 3 owner car.

Ford F-Series Super Duty prototype reduced to smoldering mess of aluminum and steel [UPDATE]

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

The most important bit of information you need to know after looking through our high-res gallery of images depicting a prototype 2016 Ford F-Series Super Duty pickup truck burning to the ground is that nobody was hurt. There were two engineers inside the vehicle when it caught fire, and both exited to safety.
That's the good news. The bad news is that the truck, which appears to have been testing in Death Valley, appears to be a total loss, minus, of course, whatever information Ford can glean from the conflagration - particularly tracing it back to its root cause. Besides that, we're also expecting the body of the next Super Duty to be hewn from aluminum, as is the case with its smaller brother, the brand-new F-150. Note the little aluminum droppings littering the roadway as apparent proof of that.
Our spy photographers report that it took just 21 minutes for the F-Series Super Duty to burn completely to the ground. The fire appears to have started in the driver-side front wheel well, spreading to engulf the entire front end in three minutes. We can't confirm the source of the blaze, but we're curious if the car's black vinyl cladding, meant to obscure the secrets within, contributed to the fire.

2015 Ford Mustang production starts in Flat Rock

Thu, 28 Aug 2014

Today's the day, Ford fans. Production has officially commenced on the sixth-generation 2015 Mustang at the company's Flat Rock, MI factory. As production ramps up, sales should kick off in the coming months.
The production news isn't just a bit deal for American fans. With the new Mustang getting a bespoke right-hand-drive variant, the pony car's worldwide availability has swollen to include 120 different countries, including its home nation.
"Mustang is and will continue to be an automotive icon," Joe Hinrichs, Ford's president of the Americas, said in a statement. "Expanding its availability globally affords our customers around the world the opportunity to have a true firsthand Mustang experience - one unlike any other."

Ex-PR chief Vines accuses Ford of bugging cars, phones

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Jason Vines, former head of communications at Ford among other automakers, is accusing the Blue Oval of bugging his company phone and his car during the Firestone tire recall for the Explorer in 2001. The allegations have come to light in Vines' upcoming book What Did Jesus Drive? Crisis PR in Cars, Computers and Christianity.
According to The Detroit News, which has an advance copy of the book, Vines (pictured above) claims that after leaving the company, someone with security within Ford advised him that he had been bugged around the time of the recall. The allegations don't stop there, though. Vines further contends that he might not have been the only one to get this treatment, noting that then-general counsel John Rintamaki also believed he was being listened to.
According to The Detroit News, even if it had been a company phone, recording Vines without his knowledge still would have been a felony under Michigan law.
