Offering for sale at no reserve (as usual) one 1959 Thunderbird 2drht coupe. This car is out of Texas so is a dry climate car. The floors are solid in the interior but we could not get the trunk open to see if floor needs attention. We can look through the back seat and the trunk appears to be in good shape. It is missing the motor, trans and radiator. I do have several 352 engines and cruiso transmissions that can be included if going back stock. Does have factory in dash A/C and power steering but that appears to be all the options. Other than that the car appears to be super solid,straight and complete showing only minor scrapes and dings here and there. Real honest car. The paint appears to be the original paint so it is dried up, sun burned and flaking. It is a triple black car (body,roof,interior). The interior is dried up and thread bare and needs to be completely redone. Carpets have been removed and thrown away to keep the car dry. The car appears to be very solid and virtually rust free with a couple minor exceptions being a couple small spots inside the front wheel well opening at the back and it is minor. Appears to be a mudtrap area of some sort. . Basically an original, unmolested car to start your restoration. I prefer these types of vehicles rather paying more for someone else's bad work that you have to take apart and redo anyway. Selling with intention of needing restoration of all components.
It has a good title.
The car can be stored here for up to 6 months - after that we will come up with a monthly fee.
Possible delivery if you are within 400 miles of central Kansas south or west for $1.00 a loaded mile fee.
If you have questions, please feel free to ask.
If you would like a better look at anything we can send more pictures.
We expect payment within 5 working days of the end of the auction.

Ford to auction Mustang Cobra Jet prototype for charity [w/video]

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Prototypes developed by major automakers typically remain in said company's custody, but every once in a while, one trickles out into private hands. And that's just what we have here. Ford is donating a one-of-a-kind factory prototype for the 2014 Mustang Cobra Jet that will be auctioned off later this month by Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
Powered by a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 mated to a T4 competition gearbox, this rare Cobra Jet prototype includes a wheelie bar, chromoly roll cage, Weld wheels, three-link rear suspension, racing brakes, 9-inch rear axle and more. It's painted in a unique satin orange with reflective gray striping scheme, bears the serial number 2014 BJMS CJXX1 and is fully ready for NHRA competition on the drag strip.
To be offered with no reserve on Saturday, September 28, 2013, the Cobra Jet prototype's winning bidder will also receive tutelage at Roy Hill's Drag Racing School in Sophia, NC, along with tours of the Ford Product Development Center, Ford Racing headquarters and Ford Design Studios with Mustang chief engineer Dave Pericak. Scope out the video and details below for what could be the ultimate Mustang experience for a good cause.

Ford announces 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Ford has pulled the wraps off its anticipated 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition model, a new variant of the popular street-legal off-road specialist. In a nutshell, the "special" is all cosmetic - there are no mechanical upgrades to the truck and its 6.2-liter V8 (411 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque), Torsen limited-slip differential, beadlock-capable wheels and internal triple-bypass FOX Racing Shox dampers all remain untouched.
The SVT Raptor Special Edition, which adds cosmetic enhancements to the existing Luxury Package, will be offered in Ruby Red Metallic and Tuxedo Black Metallic with box-side graphics. The interior upgrades include Brick Red seat bolsters (with black inserts), cloth honeycomb highlights and a console top finish panel.
As of now, Ford has only release a couple pictures of the Special Edition model. But check back later, as we will update the gallery when additional high-res images are released later today, and be sure to peruse the press release below for all the details.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
