1965 Ford Thunderbird on 2040-cars
United States
|
Up for sale is my 1965 Ford Thunderbird. The car does not have a motor and transmission in it right now. The original short block asym is in the trunk. Short block consists of the original 390 Block, painted and ready to be built, crank, rods, and pistons. I had planned on fixing this car up, but I just have too many other projects going on right now. The exterior of this car has great potential. It is super straight, and paint looks great in most areas, there are some spots that looks as if they were wet sanded. As far as I can tell this car is absolutely rust free, and everything looks, sounds, and feels solid. The interior on this car is beautiful. All the chrome trim, and buttons are in place. The headliner is in great shape. The driver seat has a tear, and seems like the foam has lost its cushion, and the floor does need carpet. Besides the driver seat rip, and the carpet, the interior is perfect! Even has the original 1965 Owners manual in the center console. Car is equipped with power windows, swing away steering wheel, power steering, A/C, and disc brakes. Whitewall tires are like new, and comes with 4 original hubcaps, and also 4 spyder caps with 15" beauty rings if you want more of a rat rod kinda look. Car has a clear title. I have another Ford 390 V8 (not original to this car) complete from oil pan to carburetor that can be negotiated ONLY if you are able to pick up in person, and access to a 3spd Cruise O Matic transmission.This car would make a killer cruiser! You don't see black on black very often, so don't let this easy project slip away. Ask any question you need.
Thanks *Added info* Car is located just north of Dallas, Texas Also added some more pictures of areas not previously pictured. |

SEMA crowns Mustang, FR-S as this year's hottest cars in the building
Wed, 31 Oct 2012After wrapping up the first day of the 2012 SEMA Show, organizers handed out awards for some of the trendiest vehicles on display. Since the whole point of SEMA is to show off new products available in the aftermarket world for use in cars, trucks and SUVs, each year, the show distinguishes the most popular vehicle in various segments. Not surprisingly, this year's Hottest Car and Hottest Sport Compact are the Ford Mustang and Scion FR-S, respectively, while the Ford F-Series brought home the Hottest Truck and the Jeep Wrangler was named the Hottest 4x4-SUV.
More than 2,000 companies are at this year's show, and the display booths represents a "vote" for each car to determing the trendiest vehicles in each of the four categories. It isn't clear if these awards also take cars brought by OEMs into account, but the Mustang and FR-S were definitely well represented by both OEM and aftermarket show versions.
As usual, the OEMs showed up in force at the this year's SEMA Show exhibiting a variety of cars ranging from production-intent cars like the beastly Ford Mustang Cobra Jet to much flashier rides like Scion's Carbon Stealth FR-S.
Ford wins second consecutive Engine of the Year with 1.0L EcoBoost [UPDATE]
Wed, 05 Jun 2013For the second year in a row, Ford has taken top honors in International Engine of the Year voting. As was the case last year, it is Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine that earns the automaker the accolade, achieving the highest-ever accumulated score in the 15 years that the award has been handed out.
A panel of 87 automotive journalists from 35 countries are responsible for choosing the world's best engines, and this is only the third time an automaker has managed back-to-back victories. Voters were impressed by the "Baby EcoBoost" engine's power output - 123 horsepower between 1,400 and 4,500 rpm, 148 pound-feet of torque from 1,400 to 4,000 rpm - and its compact size; Ford has demonstrated that the package is small enough to fit in the overhead bin of a passenger airplane.
Currently, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered in the European Fiesta, B-MAX, Focus, C-MAX and Grand C-MAX, and Ford plans to put the engine in the Transit Connect, Transit Courier, Tourneo Connect, Tourneo Courier, Mondeo and EcoSport in short order. In North America, the Fiesta will be the first vehicle to offer the 1.0L EcoBoost later this year.
eBay Find of the Day: 1987 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe is showroom fresh
Tue, 27 Aug 2013There's an ultra-rare Ford Thunderbird for sale on eBay, although it's not quite the T-Bird you're probably thinking. This is a 1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, complete with a five-speed manual transmission and just a shade over 13,000 miles on the clock. The condition is said to be mint, and judging by the interior and exterior pictures, we're inclined to believe the seller. The paint is glossy and the interior looks showroom new, while the underbody is stunningly clean for a 36-year-old car.
Underhood sits a 2.3-liter, intercooled and turbocharged four-cylinder (also found in the Mustang SVO) that was producing 190 horsepower when it left the factory. Inside, the five-speed manual transmission adds to the car's rarity. The vehicle's sole owner has been as immaculate with the paperwork as he has with the rest of the car - it's all there, including brochures and other product material.
The eBay auction ends tomorrow at midnight (9:00 PM if you're on America's west coast). Bidding has reached $10,200, and there's still plenty of time to get in on this future classic. The vehicle is located in Millstone Township, NJ.
