Have a good look at this unrestored, unmolested, low milage, one owner, 1962 Galaxie Hardtop. There are plenty of very nice restorations around but a car like this is very hard to find with only 41,682 miles on it.  Everything on this car is original,  the body is as straight as it came from the factory. The bottom of the rockers are rust free.  This car was undercoated when it was new, not recently to cover up anything, but when it was new. You can see this from the underside of the hood and the wheelwells in the pictures. The only flaw I can see in the body is the right rear fender where you can see a spot of paint coming off. It looks like perhaps something fell on the top of it because there is no damage to the bumper or any of the tailight trim. Instead of spotting the paint it was painted up to the door so this fender has a little more shine to it than the rest. Buffing the rest should make it about equal. All the glass is amazingly good but does need the piece of rubber between the front and rear window glass replaced. There is a very minor dent in the rear bumper that you can see in the pictures. The front bumper is straight and only has some small blemishes in the chrome on the right corner. There is not a single rip or tear in the upholstery. The worst thing you can say about the seats is that they have faded just a little over time. The headliner is in great shape but does need the plastic lens on the dome light. The steering wheel is very nice but does have some of the color worn off. All the brightwork trim is very good and only needs some polishing on some of it. The carpet is good but is faded from light. The engine compartment appears to be all original and complete. It has not been cleaned up and has the 52 years of dirt and a little grease and oil. I could clean this real easy but this car really is a time capsule like it is so I will leave it up to the next owner to suite his taste. The car runs and drives good, Has a 352 cu in engine,the tires are good, has radio and heater, power steering,and cruiseamatic transmission that works good. Absolutly no rust in the floors or trunk, even the gas tank was undercoated. I have tried to mention every flaw I could find, which is not many, but please ask any question you have. If you would like to call, my number is 478-231-4848. I had to mark clear title to get it a list but it is sold with a Georgia bill of sale and a current registration. Cars older than 1963 do not have titles in ga. and a number of other states. It is easy to obtain a title in most states that require one with the bill of sale and reg. One can be obtained for a fee if it's needed in your state.  If you are a -O- feedback bidder, please call before bidding.

2015 Ford Mustang spied on video for the first time

Thu, 20 Jun 2013

Not many cars will continue to hold our rapt attention quite like the upcoming redesigned 2015 Ford Mustang, codenamed S550 internally. Earlier this month, we brought you the first spy photos of a next-gen Mustang prototype out testing, and even though expertly placed cladding concealed the pony car's new shape, we could tell that underneath was hiding an altogether new form inspired by the Evos Concept from 2011.
Today we give you some video of what looks to be the same Mustang prototype, which you can watch below, and while the budding director behind the camera wasn't able to capture much in the way of the engine's audio signature, we can see the car in motion for the first time and compare its relative size and shape to the S197 Mustang GT that's on its tail.

Ford Australia pulls the ol' talking car prank

Mon, 07 Apr 2014

Siri from Apple has proven that being able to talk to your technology doesn't always work perfectly. But what if it could eventually go far enough to give a personality to inanimate objects like our cars? Ford took just this path to comedic effect by playing a prank on many unsuspecting Australians, in a new commercial for its EcoSport compact crossover.
The Aussies seem very nonchalant about having a random parked car talk to them, and they seem surprisingly game when it asks them to get in, call a celebrity and tell a joke. (We're guessing there are some hilarious outtakes, too.) Scroll down to watch some folks from Down Under have a conversation with Ford's CUV.

United States drivers buying fewer Mexican-made cars

Tue, May 10 2016

Crossovers and pickup trucks are not only growing in market share, they're also more profitable than cars. A crossover on the same platform as a sedan retails for thousands more, despite similar components. It's one of the reasons we've seen automakers rapidly shifting production of their sedans and hatchbacks to Mexico, where cheap labor preserves the thin profit margins on these inexpensive vehicles. But as the market continues to shift in the United States, Mexico is getting burned by its lack of product diversity. The country's auto exports, which are heavy on cars, suffered a 16-percent drop last month, Automotive News reports. In total, year-over-year exports fell from 233,515 to 197,020 last month, while year-to-date exports are down by 7.4 percent, from 922,029 to 854,118. The number one culprit? America – which usually accounts for 75 percent of Mexico's exports – and its appetite for crossovers and pickup trucks bolstered by cheap gas prices. While Mexico does build some light truck models – AN specifically calls out the Ram 2500, Honda HR-V, GMC Sierra, and Toyota Tacoma as export leaders – the vast majority of vehicles rolling out of its factories are sedans and hatchbacks. In fact, the three biggest drops in Mexican exports came from companies whose south of the border factories only build cars – Ford (Fusion/Lincoln MKZ and Fiesta), Mazda (Mazda3), and Volkswagen (Golf and Jetta). Mexican Automotive Industry Association President Eduardo Solis told AN the export shortfall will likely be sorted out sooner rather than later, thanks to a pair of new factories – a Kia car factory and an Audi SUV plant – that are coming online by year's end. The two facilities will add around 100,000 vehicles to the country's export totals, which Solis said should leave the industry on the verge of breaking another export record in 2016. But how sustainable will these record-breaking years be? Slapping an "Hecho en Mexico" sticker on a new German SUV won't be enough to change the fact that Mexico's product mix is tilted too heavily towards body styles that are not growing in volume. Mexico's record-breaking export years probably aren't at an end, but we'd argue they're certainly under threat.
