Let me start out by saying that this car belongs to a very good friend of mine, who is unable to handle the sell of the car so i am handling the selling process for him. The car is a 1957 thunderbird, factory raven black car, the car was factory black and white interior but the interior was changed to red. The car was just recently finished from where it underwent a full restoration and has less then 50 miles on it. The car is laser straight and looks amazing. All of the interior is brand new with the exception of the inserts on the dash which are the original ones for the car. When the car was built it was built with the intention of driving. The motor in the car is the original one for the car, and is a 312 Y Block, but the carb has been changed to one that is a little bit easier to tune. The transmission is not the original one for the car, the car came factory with a 3 speed standard shift, but during restoration the car was changed to a 4 speed, to make it easier to drive. Now if your looking for a trailer queen, well i can say that this one is certainly not for you, and it certainly doesnt have one of those crazy prices either. This car is a great driver that you can get in and enjoy right now. If your looking for one that you can get in pretty good and do a little detail work on to make it as close to trailer queen but still enjoy, then this car could be for you. The car still has its factory front and rear bumpers, now from a quick look they look great, but when you get close you can pick them for just minor things. The car could use a little more detail work under the hood, like the factory breather, and the manifolds painted, little stuff like that which would give you a little bit better chance of getting that best of show trophy. Like i said this car was built to drive, not a trailer queen. The car has the factory hardtop, and does not have a soft top, but it does have a quick cover that is behind the seat and snaps in real quick if you get caught out in the rain or something. The car is for sale locally and is subject to be taken off if sold. A 25% deposit is due within 3 days of the auctions end and the balance within 7 more when the car is to be picked up or arrangments are made for the car to be shipped. If you have any questions about the car please fill free to ask and i will gladly answer them to the best of my ability. Thanks and God Bless Kody 251-454-5455

Ford Transit Skyliner Concept does discreet luxury in NYC
Thu, 17 Apr 2014There's something to be said for luxed-out vans. They're cool, and as a means of getting chauffeured about, they're extremely comfortable and far more low key than your typical executive luxury sedan. For the 2014 New York Auto Show, Galpin Auto Sports has shown the potential of the new-for-the-US Ford Transit as an ultra-luxurious people hauler.
The Transit Skyliner Concept, which we previewed last week, sports four finely crafted captain's buckets that can be moved into different formations based on need. Want to watch a movie? The seats can be swung around to face a 52-inch screen. Riding along with some business associates? A table can be popped up. There's even a configuration for tailgating.
The materials are, unsurprisingly, pretty plush. The leather seats and wood floors (yes, wood floors in a van) look great, while the trunk and its customized luggage are a nice touch, as well.
KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars
Wed, 30 Jul 2014The old saying goes that if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. But being a criminal can involve more than just taking a trip to the big house; it can also mean losing possessions purchased from any ill-gotten gains. Still, one man's loss is another's gain, and if you're in Lodi, NJ, on September 12, you stand the chance to buy some of the ultimate muscle cars from the US Marshals in what is being gruesomely nicknamed the Blood Muscle auction.
The grisly moniker was earned because all of the vehicles belonged to the president of a blood testing company who is facing prison time for alleged bribery, according to Hemmings. After all, they are muscle cars bought with actual blood money. The seven-vehicle collection includes some of the ultimate muscle cars ever made, and the original buyer clearly had an eye for rarity.
This cornucopia of V8 power includes a teal 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429, a 1967 Shelby GT500 Mustang, an orange 1970 Plymouth Superbird, a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS convertible and perhaps most prized of all - a trio of 1969 Yenko Chevys with a Chevelle, Nova and Camaro all represented. From the included photos, all of them look to be in fantastic condition.
