1963 1/2 Ford Galaxie 500. 390 cu. in. motor that has been
bored out 0.030” over, with Edelbrock High Rise Heads and Intake Manifold, 270
degree cam, producing 400+ hp, coupled to a GM 700-R4 automatic transmission
with Overdrive, (necessary for the high hp). It has an Edelbrock 650cfm 4-bbl carburetor, electric fuel pump,
Griffin High Capacity aluminum radiator w/dual electric cooling fans, anti-sway
bars front & rear, drag link traction bars, Magnaflow mufflers. The
interior and all glass completely replaced 6 years ago and is in perfect
condition. All instruments & gauges work except the Clock. The only maintenance
problem is a minor leak in the Power Steering system. It works fine but has a
small drip when parked. This car was restored in 2008 by a retired NASCAR
Mechanic who built cars for the Holman-Moody Race team. He built this one as
close to the performance of that NASCAR era as possible but still be street
legal. The odometer show 48253 miles but I don’t know the real mileage of the
car. I have only driven it about 3000 miles since I bought it from him in 2008.
I have taken it on the Hot Rod Power Tour and it performed great. It is a real “head
turner” and gets lots of compliments. A deposit of $500 due within 48 hours of the sale ending and the balance due within 2 weeks. Payment may be made via PayPal or a bank wire transfer. Buyer is responsible for pick-up or arranging shipping. |

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th
Tue, 15 Apr 2014It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
eBay Find of the Day: 1987 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe is showroom fresh
Tue, 27 Aug 2013There's an ultra-rare Ford Thunderbird for sale on eBay, although it's not quite the T-Bird you're probably thinking. This is a 1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, complete with a five-speed manual transmission and just a shade over 13,000 miles on the clock. The condition is said to be mint, and judging by the interior and exterior pictures, we're inclined to believe the seller. The paint is glossy and the interior looks showroom new, while the underbody is stunningly clean for a 36-year-old car.
Underhood sits a 2.3-liter, intercooled and turbocharged four-cylinder (also found in the Mustang SVO) that was producing 190 horsepower when it left the factory. Inside, the five-speed manual transmission adds to the car's rarity. The vehicle's sole owner has been as immaculate with the paperwork as he has with the rest of the car - it's all there, including brochures and other product material.
The eBay auction ends tomorrow at midnight (9:00 PM if you're on America's west coast). Bidding has reached $10,200, and there's still plenty of time to get in on this future classic. The vehicle is located in Millstone Township, NJ.
Takata air bag recall list
Tue, Dec 9 2014The 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.
