Here is a very rare, excellent example of a 1959 Ford Galaxie Sunliner convertible. This is the model with both Galaxie and Fairlane 500 designation,. Factory colors of Colonial White over Indian Turquoise. This is a very original California car - awesome original sheet metal, very straight and pretty much zero rust. Some paint chips and scratches in paint, a few very subtle small dings. Body gaps are great, doors and deck lids line up and shut nicely. It is running the original 332 FE v8  (2bbl Holley carburetor) and the Cruise-O-Matic transmission. As far as I can tell, it has had one repaint 40+ years ago. It has a super nice, largely original interior -- I think the carpets and seat inserts have been replaced in the past. This car had been parked in a climate controlled garage at least 24 years prior to when I got it. I did spend a lot of time and $$ making repairs and upgrades to make it a really nice driver:

  • New front end and shocks complete.
  • New brakes.
  • New www bias ply tires as original.
  • New carburetor, generator, regulator, fuel pump, water pump, hoses and belts.
  • New fuel tank.
  • New convertible top and weatherstrips, hydraulic pump, lift rams and hoses.
  • Recent tune up. 
  • NOS Foxcraft stainless steel fender skirts.
  • New hubcaps and accessory spinner.
This car runs and drives great! All gauges work, radio works, clock does not. It gathers a lot of attention where ever it goes, and has a really nice level of patina on it that people seem to really appreciate... many folks have said they would just leave it and enjoy it as is. Otherwise, I would say for a high point restoration, this would likely be one of the best candidates one could find. I have the Sunliner here in sunny Scottsdale, AZ... this car is currently AZ licensed and I have clear AZ title in hand. I'm moving out of the country and trying to thin the herd out a little to help with  my move. If it doesn't sell, though, it will go with me out of the country. I want to reiterate that this is not a perfect restored show car. It is a really nice driver -- a "10 footer". I will attach more photos soon. This car is for sale outside of Ebay so the auction may end at any time. I am happy to answer any questions... send me a note here or contact Greg @ 1-250-640-6479.

The Edge will also be the first Ford-badged product to come standard with EcoBoost power.

2016: The year of the autonomous-car promise

Mon, Jan 2 2017

About half of the news we covered this year related in some way to The Great Autonomous Future, or at least it seemed that way. If you listen to automakers, by 2020 everyone will be driving (riding?) around in self-driving cars. But what will they look like, how will we make the transition from driven to driverless, and how will laws and infrastructure adapt? We got very few answers to those questions, and instead were handed big promises, vague timelines, and a dose of misdirection by automakers. There has been a lot of talk, but we still don't know that much about these proposed vehicles, which are at least three years off. That's half a development cycle in this industry. We generally only start to get an idea of what a company will build about two years before it goes on sale. So instead of concrete information about autonomous cars, 2016 has brought us a lot of promises, many in the form of concept cars. They have popped up from just about every automaker accompanied by the CEO's pledge to deliver a Level 4 autonomous, all-electric model (usually a crossover) in a few years. It's very easy to say that a static design study sitting on a stage will be able to drive itself while projecting a movie on the windshield, but it's another thing entirely to make good on that promise. With a few exceptions, 2016 has been stuck in the promising stage. It's a strange thing, really; automakers are famous for responding with "we don't discuss future product" whenever we ask about models or variants known to be in the pipeline, yet when it comes to self-driving electric wondermobiles, companies have been falling all over themselves to let us know that theirs is coming soon, it'll be oh so great, and, hey, that makes them a mobility company now, not just an automaker. A lot of this is posturing and marketing, showing the public, shareholders, and the rest of the industry that "we're making one, too, we swear!" It has set off a domino effect – once a few companies make the guarantee, the rest feel forced to throw out a grandiose yet vague plan for an unknown future. And indeed there are usually scant details to go along with such announcements – an imprecise mileage estimate here, or a far-off, percentage-based goal there. Instead of useful discussion of future product, we get demonstrations of test mules, announcements of big R&D budgets and new test centers they'll fund, those futuristic concept cars, and, yeah, more promises.
