***THERE IS A SLIDESHOW WITH MORE DETAILED PICS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS AUCTION***
1963 Ford Galaxie 500 2dr Fastback. Was originally a 352 CID automatic car in Raven Black with Red Vinyl Interior with 3.00 rear end gears. ***IT DOES NOT HAVE AN ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION*** The car needs total restoration but would be beautiful when finished. I have included some pics of build ideas on this car in the pics. The car needs alot of body work. It needs the passenger side front fender replaced. It needs a long rear passenger quarter panel put in (you can buy these online). It needs a new drivers door put on. I have a replacement door that is straight but needs a couple holes filled on the bottom weatherstrip channels. Try to find a new one or patch this one up. I also have two front fenders and a front bumper valence from the previous owner. The fenders are rusted out on top and bottom but the valence is good and straight. I would try to find a new passenger fender and then use the trim off of these. The hood and trunk lid are good and straight and not rusted out. All of the glass is good except for the windshield. The frame is solid and the wheel wells look good with no holes. No rust in the engine bay either. The great thing about this car is that the floor pans are pretty solid compared to most cars of this age. The only holes are in the very front so it will need two short front floor pans put in like they all do but that is it. The pans under the seat and behind them are solid. Also, the rear trunk pan where the rear damage is on the passenger side needs to be hammered straight a bit but there is no rust in the trunk pan. All the interior and interior trim is there with the car. Everything just needs to be recovered, new headlinder, carpet, etc. The dash is all there but it needs a new pad. The stainless window trim is all there and straight. Just needs to be polished. Most of the side trim is there on the car and in the box. The bumpers and bumper brackets are good and straight. The bumpers just need to be rechromed. All of the headlights and buckets are there in the box. A power brake booster from the previous owner is included with the car but I have no idea if it will work with this car. See the pics. It has a few old Cougar and Thunderbird hubcaps on it that could be sold off and some extra tail light trim. There is no title. Alabama law does not require a title for vehicles 35+ years old. Car will come with a bill of sale.

eBay Find of the Day: 1970 Ford Torino King Cobra prototype
Wed, 08 May 2013Over the last decade or so, competition in NASCAR has led to some pretty funky looking racecars. And when the sport was still up and coming, the tight competition actually led to some interesting production cars. The Dodge Charger Daytona and Plymouth Superbird are perhaps the most well-known cars of the sport's "aero wars" era but the Ford Torino King Cobra might have been the most memorable of all, if not for some different homologation rules established in 1970. The Torino King Cobra never made it to production and never competed in NASCAR, but three examples exist including this one now for sale on eBay.
Designed as a successor for the aero-tuned Torino Talladega, the Torino King Cobra has a sleeker front end with hidden headlights and a sloped nose. As the story goes, NASCAR made a rule change in 1970 requiring 3,000 of the vehicles to be produced, which was substantially more than the 500 units required by the previous rule. One of the three prototypes ever built - and the only one built with the Boss 429 engine - is now for sale on eBay with a starting bid of $500,000. With a little more than three days left on the auction there are still no bids, but in the grand scheme of things this seems like a relatively fair price for a rare piece of automobile and racing history.
Ford launches pair of recalls affecting fullsize sedans and Transit Connect van
Wed, Jan 28 2015Ford has announced a pair of pretty significant recalls affecting the 2010-2013 Ford Taurus and Police Interceptor, as well as their platform-mate, the Lincoln MKS. A separate recall covers the 2014 Transit Connect. The fullsize sedans include 205,000 vehicles built at Chicago Assembly over a variety of timeframes, ranging between December 1, 2009 and November 30, 2012. The vehicles, 194,889 of which were sold in the United States, have an issue with the spring controls on the interior door handles that could cause the door to open in a side-impact crash. The Transit Connect recall, meanwhile, includes 16,100 vans built between November 6, 2013 and September 20,2014 at the company's Valencia, Spain factory. In these vehicles, the seatbelt fasteners may not have been tightened properly, which could cause them to loosen over time, a condition that's obviously bad news in the event of a crash. Ford says it is not aware of any accidents, injuries or crashes in either recall. Owners will, of course, be notified and asked to report in for inspections and if necessary, free replacements. Scroll down for the full press release from Ford, which includes the complete breakdown of dates during which the affected sedans were built in Chicago. JAN 28, 2015 | DEARBORN, MICH. FORD ISSUES TWO SAFETY RECALLS Ford is issuing two safety recalls. No accidents or injuries are attributed to either of these conditions. Details are as follows: Ford issues safety recall for certain 2010-2013 Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS and Ford Police Interceptor sedans for interior door handle issue Ford is issuing a safety recall for approximately 205,000 2010-2013 Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS and Ford Police Interceptor sedans due to an issue with the spring that controls the interior door handles. If the spring is unseated, the door may become unlatched in a side-impact crash, increasing the risk of injury. Ford is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this condition. Affected vehicles include certain 2010-2013 Ford Taurus vehicles built Dec. 1, 2009 to July 31, 2010 and Feb. 1, 2011 to Nov. 30, 2012 at Chicago Assembly Plant; certain 2010-2013 Lincoln MKS vehicles built June 2, 2011 to Oct. 31, 2011 at Chicago Assembly Plant; and certain 2010-2013 Ford Police Interceptor sedans built Dec. 1, 2009 to July 31, 2010 and Feb. 1, 2011 to Nov. 30, 2012 at Chicago Assembly Plant.
Watch how a Ford Raptor rolls down the assembly line in Dearborn
Sun, 30 Mar 2014Bloomberg TV reporter Matt Miller is the proud new owner of a pretty killer truck. How do we know? The reporter headed to Dearborn, MI to Ford's assembly plant, with a film crew in tow, to see exactly how his new F-150 SVT Raptor and its mother-loving 6.2-liter V8 engine, was screwed together.
The resulting video does an excellent job of summing up how an assemblage of parts and pieces is turned into a triple-black Raptor, thanks to the work of some 1,000 employees and about 20 hours of real time. Click through below to see how the truck is born, with a surprise cameo playing the part of delivery driver at the end.
