Hello. You are bidding on a 1963 Ford Galaxie 500. This car was born in Oakland, California, and was equipped with a 352 engine, with a Cruise-o-matic transmission. The color code for the car was originally Corinthian White with black interior. This car is equipped with factory Select-Air, air conditioning, factory power brakes, and factory power steering. This car is a one owner car. It spent its life in Salinas, California, and was left as an open title in 1995. The car was then brought to Arizona in 1973, and was parked in 1979. I purchased the car in November 2012 from the nephew of the original owner. I will include in the auction all the original documentation that I have for it which includes: the original 1963 California Black and Yellow plate that matches the original 1963 California title, the 1973 Arizona License plate with 1979 tags, a maintenance service record booklet that the original owner had for the Galaxie, and the original owner's manual. The car has current registration and current original 1961 Arizona plates with 1963 tags.

Okay, now to the fun part: The car was parked in 1979 due to 4 bent rods. The mileage on the odometer when the car was parked is true, and shows 70449. When I purchased the car, I had the motor and transmission completely taken apart and rebuilt. I also had the heads both redone, and upgraded the engine form a 352 to a 390. Everything is new in the engine compartment has been replaced. The car is equipped with a factory 2 barrel carb, but i will include with the auction a date coded 1963 Ford 4 barrel carb which is very hard to find. The original power brakes system was completely rebuilt, and all the brake shoes, hoses, lines and cylinders were replaced. The whole brake system works beyond great, and you can stop on a dime. The complete original power steering system was replaced with new parts and hoses. New ball joints were added to the car, as well as tie rods and other bushings. All new shocks were added to the car also. A new gas tank and sending unit was also added to the car. A new aluminum radiator was also added to the car, but I will include the original one in the auction. The original ac compressor is hooked up, but will need to be charged with R12 coolant; I will include 2 cans that I purchased, but you will need 2 more cans for a full charge. I upgraded the charging system with an alternator. The car has a complete, new dual exhaust system: 2 3/4 inches exhaust with flow masters, an "x" pipe, and NOS exhaust tips. The car was converted to a floor shift style set up, but still has the Cruise-o-matic transmission that was taken apart and resealed. I used an original 1963 Galaxie 4 speed column and collar, as well as the complete 4 speed pedal assembly, and 1960's Ford tachometer. I did this to give the car more of a tougher look, and no one can ever tell the difference. I will include the original Cruise-o-matic column and collar, and power brake pedal if you wish to convert it back. The car has a new windshield, and new front and back windshield gaskets. It also has all new side window weatherstripping, including window sweeps and channel felts. It has new door, trunk, and engine compartment rubbers. All the chrome and stainless is re-chromed or polished. It has Firestone Pie Crust tires, with white walls flipped in, mounted on powder coated gloss black wheels, with restored dog dish poverty caps. The interior of the car was completely redone to original specs and is completely new; it's only 6 months old. I installed a completely hidden cd/Ipod player with hidden speakers; it sounds very nice. The car was equipped with seat belts, but they were badly worn, so I replaced them with new black seat belts, and 1963 black Ford original reproduction floor mats, that are now discontinued. The body on the car is very straight, and has very few imperfections. There are a few dings on the roof, and a couple of screw holes on the passenger side lower rocker, that the original owner put on the car, to pull a dent out. I did no body work to the car. It was painted semi-gloss black, and has a few scratches and paint chips, but is still very nice. The undercarriage of the car is as clean as the outside of the car. It has been cleaned and painted, and the bottom of the floors were painted in red oxide primer. The car has rock solid floors and trunk floor board, as well as solid lower rear quarters and rockers. There is no sign of any body rot. I will include with the car over $15k in receipts and proofs of purchases. There is a lot to list on this car, and I'm sure I have missed some stuff. Long story short, this car gets lots of looks.

I have the car listed locally, so I have the right to end the auction early. Please feel free to contact me for any more questions or concerns. No scams!!! No b/s!!! No dreamers!!! Am willing to do possible trade for a Prius with low miles, or a 1920-1929 Ford Roadster or coupe hot rod, with cash. I can help with any loading, and I can hold the car for a few weeks if needed. $1500 non refundable deposit must be made on the car when auction ends, and the car must be paid in full within 24 hours of auction ending. Any overseas buyers need to contact me before bidding on the car, and you must have more than 5 postive feedbacks before bidding. Any questions please contact me. Thank You.

Evo grabs Ford's Fiesta R5 rally car by the scruff

Wed, 04 Sep 2013

Evo and host Henry Catchpole were thinking of excuses reasons to borrow the bonkers Ford Fiesta R5 rally car for a day or two, when it struck them: the car is street legal. With access to the R5, some of the world's most beautiful driving roads in the English Lake Country nearby, and a handy video crewing hanging around, the plan seemed to write itself.
Based on the resulting video, it was a good plan. Without spoiling the video for you - something we can't really do in text as the best part is listening to the rally car run - Catchpole finds the Fiesta to be sublimely quick and massively satisfying. Even taking the car for a spin on a pseudo rally stage, after leaving the English countryside, does nothing but add to his assessment of the beastly little Ford. Scroll on below to see for yourself, and enjoy the ride.

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a track-day weapon with 500 hp

Mon, 17 Nov 2014

Ford promises more than 500 horsepower and a torque peak above 400 lb-ft.
The wait is finally over. After months of spy shots, rumor and innuendo, Ford has officially pulled the wraps off its new Shelby GT350. Judging by the spec sheet and the promises being made - especially that the Shelby GT350 will be "an all-day track car that's also street legal" - the wait appears to have been worth it.

Production of Shelby GT350 is coming to an end

Fri, 26 Jul 2013

One Autoblog staffer who drove the limited-edition Shelby GT350 wrote it probably was the best Mustang he'd driven, but, at some point, the fun had to come to an end: December 31 is the last day the GT350 will be available to order.
The GT350's option list has evolved much like it did for the original 1965-67 GT350. For 2011, the 45th Anniversary edition only came in coupe form and was painted white with blue stripes, just as with the 1965 car. The 2012 GT350 was offered as a coupe or convertible, and three colors were added to the option list, just like the 1966 model. For 2013, more colors and options were added in addition to equipment and styling updates, which resulted in Wilwood instead of Baer brakes. No major changes were made for the 2014 model. From the first car in 2011, customers have been able to choose between three different configurations for their 5.0-liter V8: naturally aspirated with 440 horsepower, supercharged with 525 hp (with warranty) or supercharged with 624 hp (without warranty).
"When we unveiled this latest version of the Shelby GT350, we promised it would be built for a limited time to preserve its collectability and value," states John Luft, president of Shelby American. He may have a point, because the original GT350, which also had a limited production run, is among the most valuable muscle cars in the world.
