Here is a spectacular and ORIGINAL condition* (unrestored) 1972 Ford Thunderbird, 2 door landau with a fast 429Cu V-8 power plant with just under 58,500 original miles. This car is in mint ORIGINAL condition because it was pampered and garaged its entire life and has very low miles.

*Car was originally turquois but had a very high quality repaint to black a few years ago. Otherwise no other work has been done to the car except for periodic maintenance.

The engine runs smooth like 58,500 miles should run. It does not burn oil or smoke. It is fast and smooth. There is an occasional drip from the motor and trans.

The chrome is in like new condition. The paint is in like new condition with a few pin point touch-ups on the front. The landau material is in like new condition. The interior seats, dash, chrome and everything else is in like new condition. The dash is not cracked, the seats are not ripped or frayed, the carpet is not damaged, the head liner is not torn or sagging. The interior color is brilliant and shiny like a new car. The car as a whole is in like new condition. It is like a new car.

The air conditioning doesn't work and didn't work when I purchased the car 3 years ago. I never investigated the problem and I only assume it doesn't work because the original owner told me it didn't work. Everything else as far as I can tell works perfectly.

The car has no rust.

I do not have documentation proving that the car has 58,500 original miles but you can look at the car and see it has very low miles and was cared for. The car is originally from Colorado Springs.

Don't bid on this car if you don't want it. The $1000 deposit due 48 hours from end of auction is non refundable. Full payment is due within one week of end of auction. Buyer is fully responsible for transporting the car but you can drive the car anywhere too if you wanted to.

2016 Ford Focus RS mule spotted on US soil

Tue, 17 Jun 2014

Okay Ford, this is what we like to see. One of our intrepid spy photographers has captured a vehicle that we weren't even sure would see the light of day - the next Focus RS. While this is pretty clearly a mule based on the current Focus ST, as our spy points out, there are a number of giveaways about this hot hatch's true nature.
Indication number one that all is not right with this Focus is the heavily camo'd front fascia, which has been completely reconfigured for duty on the RS. It boasts significantly larger grilles that are meant to accommodate what is likely the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder that's destined for the 2015 Ford Mustang. Considering that, then, we can expect around 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque from the hottest of Foci, although it's entirely possible that the production model could climb even higher, to around 330 hp.
The front fascia tweaks are complemented in the back by a modified rear bumper, which fails at hiding a pair of exhaust tips quite unlike the standard Focus ST's center-exit exhaust. Other obvious changes include the wheel/tire/brake package on this particular car. Larger 19-inch wheels are shod in super-sticky Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires in 235/35/19 while the brakes feature what we think are four-piston calipers, possibly from Brembo, up front.

Ford Fusion production scaled back just 3 months after it was accelerated

Mon, 02 Dec 2013

Three months after kicking off production of the Ford Fusion at its Flat Rock, MI factory, Ford Motor Company is taking steps to trim output in the face of heavily discounted competition from Toyota and a growing supply of vehicles.
The addition of Fusion production in Flat Rock - which also builds the Mustang - was meant to be what pushed the handsome mid-sizer past its arch-nemesis, the Toyota Camry. An extra facility building Fusions was also meant to curb the growing demand for Ford's highly profitable sedan.
But with word that Flat Rock would take "approximately" one extra week off for the holidays combined with an 88-day supply of Fusions - reportedly due in no small part to what Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas called "aggressive discounting of the Camry" - some analysts are now beginning to wonder if Ford may have overextended itself by adding a second Fusion facility to the mix.

Shelby boosts production of 575-hp Raptor on early demand

Mon, 08 Apr 2013

Shelby American unveiled its all-new Shelby Raptor at the New York Auto Show last month, saying that it would build just 100 examples of its off-road bad boy, a pickup priced at $17,995 over the cost of the donor Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. But the Las Vegas outfit apparently underestimated just how popular the supercharged 575-horsepower 4x4 would actually be.
Strong early demand reportedly has Shelby singing a whole new tune, as the company is now saying it will build upwards of 500 units annually. While the increased production will likely make for at least 400 more happy owners, those who were on the original short list - possibly speculating on future values - might not be grinning as much. Needless to say, the company has assured everyone that each and every one of the modified Raptors will still be listed in the official Shelby registry.
Keep in mind that Ford isn't sitting idle on its trophy-truck-for-the-street, either. The company will reveal its own 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition this month.
