Hi, I’m selling my 1961 Ford Galaxie Sunliner Convertible. Very “RARE” and highly collectable car. One year
only made with the 1961 Galaxie Sunliner being the last year of the “TAIL FINS,” “TURBINE LOOKING REAR
TAILLIGHTS” and bunch of other special touches that were made to this model back in the day. This car was frame
off restored a few years back to factory specs and enjoyed every single mile that was put on ever since.
It features a rare color combo Corinthian White exterior and factory 2 tone white on red interior, and new carpet
was installed during the restoration. It has a 292 “Y” block Ford Thunderbird Special engine with an auto
trans, power steering, aluminum 3 core radiator, new gas tank, new fuel lines, new brake lines, all new front end
(upper & lower control arms, ball joints, idle arms, inner / outer tire rods all the bushings, etc...), new front
to back dual factory specs exhaust etc..
Floors, trunk pan and quarters are super solid, no patch panels all original steel in mint condition. Interior is
mint with no rips tears or cuts, new powered convertible top with zip down back window. All glass and stainless is
in excellent condition. Paint is just as good as show quality with normal wear. Comes with chrome side skirts,
original bumper jack, spare tire, and original style trunk liner as you see in the pictures.
Fully working gauges, original AM radio, original clock, lights(low and high beam), blinkers, rear tail lights,
reverse lights, wipers, original heater, etc...After market Pioneer radio was installed in the glove box with USB
connection for iPod and Bluetooth compatibility for any smart phone. New Undercover II Speakers were installed
under the front seat, and the tweeters were upgraded to O Zone tweeters. To get max performance out of it all an
amp was added under the back seat. All panels remain original and nothing in the car was cut to install the
aftermarket radio and speakers. If you wish to remove it, it can be done in less than 10 min.
The car has 60,xxx original miles on the body and less then 2k miles on the engine and trans since restoration. I
am the second owner of the car, it was looked after and pampered since day one. Comes with original bill of sale
from the dealership, warranty card and other misc. papers from the time of the purchase from 1961.
Car runs and drives flawlessly. Always turns heads and draws crowds where ever I go.

Saleen previews new 302 Mustang
Thu, 03 Jul 2014The introduction of a new generation of a model like the Ford Mustang may be exciting enough in its own right for enthusiasts, but that's just the tip of the proverbial iceberg, because you know that Ford itself as well as numerous aftermarket tuners will soon follow up with even more desirable versions. And few Mustang tuners carry quite the same clout of Saleen.
Recently reunited after its previous split, Saleen is back on the map and hard at work on new aftermarket modifications for a wide array of muscle cars. We knew it would only be a matter of time before it would release a new 302 Mustang, and now it's sent out the first image to show us what to expect.
Details are scarce, but House that Steve Built says the 2015 Saleen 302 Mustang "is perfectly positioned as the next American exotic." And it should know, considering that it's the same outfit that produced the Saleen S7 that really was a true American exotic. From the teaser image above we can see that Saleen has given its Mustang a new front air dam, a very wide air scoop on the hood and of course Saleen's trademark slat grille.
NHTSA closes Ford F-Series Super Duty steering probe without recall
Wed, 05 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's investigation into 2008 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty pickups, which was originally opened last year, has now ended without a recall. NHTSA was looking into steering failures on some 336,000 trucks.
The issue rested with the steering gear - NHTSA received five complaints of failures - which was redesigned in 2005. According to the report on the matter, investigators "found evidence of broken sector shaft gear teeth and piston damage consistent with incidents of single event overload."
NHTSA investigators, however, "found no evidence of fatigue or material property defects in any of the fractures. Analysis of complaint rates by vehicle build month showed no patterns indicating potential manufacturing quality issues and no difference before and after Ford introduced design changes to the input shaft and sector shaft seals in July 2007 to address potential leak concerns," according to the report, obtained by The Detroit News.
Ford Fiesta ST gets worked out on the track
Sun, 10 Mar 2013We're big fans of the turbocharged Ford Focus ST, and we're plenty excited that the Blue Oval will be offering a similar treatment on the smaller Fiesta here in the United States, too. We first saw the production-ready Fiesta ST five-door at the Los Angeles Auto Show last fall, and Ford has now released this video of a Euro-spec three-door ST being flung around the track.
But not just any track - the challenging Track 7 of Ford's Lommel Proving Grounds in Belgium. The course features 20 turns and plenty of elevation changes along its 2.7-mile loop, and David Put, a vehicle dynamic specialist at Ford, shows just how good the pint-sized Fiesta ST is at handling the lot, even getting the smallest ST up on three wheels every now and then.
It sure does look like a lot of fun, and makes us really eager for our chance to try this ourselves. Scroll down to see the hot little Ford getting busy.
