1962 Ford Galaxie 2-Door Club Sedan

For sale is an ALL ORIGINAL and COMPLETE 1962 Ford Galaxie that would be a great candidate for a full restoration. Don't want to send this to the crusher. Originally Raven Black exterior with Gray and Turquoise interior (based on data plate which is still on the car).

Vehicle does not have a title, but will provide Bill of Sale.

Odometer shows 1,614.

Car is not in running condition now and it is not known when it last ran. Has been sitting for a number of years. But the original 223 inline 6 cylinder engine and seemingly all its components, including Holly carburetor, are all there, ready to be brought back to life. Dipstick indicated engine still has oil in the pan.

Interior will need restoration as well of course. Front seats are there, rear seat is long gone. Rust in floor is actually not as bad as many others I've seen. See photos.

3-Speed "On the Tree" Manual Transmission - Condition unknown.

Will need new tires but the ones on it now will pump and hold air long enough for you to get it on to a trailer.

Dashboard looks like all the original stuff is there, and someone added Amperage and Oil Pressure gauges at some point. Radio still there. Glovebox is gone.

Mostly surface rust on exterior - body is pretty solid for the most part.

Most of the aluminium trim seems to be there - it's all been removed from the car and is in the trunk, with a few pieces laying in the front seat (including original horn button).

Has that wonderful, distinct old car interior smell.

If you're looking for a good restoration project this old girl is calling your name! Would be a great flip for a collector car dealer, or a nice father/son project to anyone with basic restoration knowledge.

Feel free to contact me about coming to see it in person. Vehicle is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

If you have any questions or concerns at all, PLEASE ASK BEFORE BIDDING!

Being sold AS-IS with no warranties. No refunds or returns.

Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!

2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost

Fri, 09 May 2014

I'll be honest; when Ford first unveiled its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, I was skeptical. Past attempts at building turbocharged American cars were almost universally awful, I reasoned, so why would Ford's latest effort be any different? This may seem foolish today, considering the success that the growing EcoBoost range has achieved - particularly the 2.0-liter and 1.6-liter mills. Yet I once again found myself questioning Ford.
It's the makeup of the 1.0-liter, turbocharged three-cylinder slotted into the compact engine bay of this Fiesta that has a way of breeding doubt. Three-cylinder engines remain an extreme rarity in the US. What's more, they earned a less-than-desirable reputation for applications in the 1980s and 1990s, and my trepidation about this latest three-pot as a result.
As I found out, though, history is a poor informant of modern technology. The thrust available in other cars with the EcoBoost badge on the back has not gone missing here; something the International Engine of the Year committee has lauded. That august body named the 1.0-liter Ecoboost the best engine of 2012 and 2013. After a week of driving, it didn't take long for my fear of threes to get turned into something like that line of thinking.

Takata air bag recall list

Tue, Dec 9 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed yesterday that 33.8 million vehicles with Takata airbags are going to be recalled. It's the largest recall in automotive history. The already record-breaking rate of automotive recalls this year shows no signs of slowing down, especially since millions of cars with defective airbags made by global supplier Takata are under ongoing scrutiny. The federal government is warning owners that inflator mechanisms in the air bags can rupture, causing metal fragments to fly out when the bags are deployed. The faulty air bags have already been blamed for multiple deaths. How do you know if your vehicle is safe? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released an updated list of vehicles under recall. Sometimes however, the government's website will crash and the list may not be complete. Check your VIN at the NHTSA website to make sure. The list of cars affected by the recall has not been released, but seem to span multiple models over the years for many of the automakers.
