This is an outstanding numbers matching original condition '64 Galaxie convertible. Brand new (white top) and rear window, new 4bb Holley carb with electronic choke. New interior. Everything works except for the original am radio. I will replace with a working am/fm stereo if you do not want the original radio. Power steering and recently redone drum brakes. Perfect original glass. Engine runs perfectly, compression tested in all cylinders per specs and vacumn stays steady. This is a 352 that has been well maintained and clearly babied. Pulls like a new engine on highways and cruises with no effort. Transmission shifts smoothly. No leaks. No rust anywhere including undercarriage and frame. Frame rails are solid and straight. I have an electronic ignition I will give you (or install) if you do not want the points. Paint is a few years old and does have a few dings from road use. Nothing that could not be inexpensively covered if you wanted to put the finish in No 1 show condition. All rubber is in very good shape. Chrome bumpers are perfect and aluminum is all original and in very good condition. With proper polishing could easily be put in show status. If you are looking for an authentic full size Ford experience from the 60's a '64 Galaxie convertible would be hard to beat. Especially a convertible in as nice original shape as this one. Tires are nearing the end of their life and will need to be replaced. Other than that this car is waiting for you to take it to local shows or drive it about town.

Buick GN and GNX will return
Ford Fusion getting substantial refresh for 2017
Wed, 13 Aug 2014It's only been a couple of years since Ford rolled out the current Fusion, but if these spy shots are anything to go by, it's already planning what appears to be a substantial update for the mid-size sedan.
According to our paparazzi on the ground, the new Fusion is being prepared for launch late in 2016 or early 2017. Although heavily camouflaged to keep it from prying eyes such as ours, it appears that the updated Fusion will tone down the Aston Martin-style grille, ditch the small corner window with revised front side glass and tweak the vehicle's overall shape. But there's more to the new Fusion than a styling adjustment, and our spy photographers have caught a glimpse inside and taken us along.
Apparently the new Fusion is to get a completely overhauled interior with soft-touch surfaces and matte wood trim to make it seem more upscale. There's an all-new rotary gear selector (like you'd find on a Jaguar, for example) hinting at the implementation of a new nine-speed automatic transmission. The prototype appears to be packing the Microsoft SYNC system, suggesting that the new Blackberry QNX system isn't ready quite yet - though that doesn't necessarily mean it won't be ready by the time the new Fusion is.
Enterprise customer billed $47k for Mustang stolen from rental lot
Sun, 05 Jan 2014A weekend rental of a Ford Mustang GT Convertible sounds like a nice, relaxing way to burn some gas, but one Nova Scotia woman's two-day rental is turning into a months-long headache. In early October, Kristen Cockerill picked up the Mustang from Enterprise Rent-A-Car, and she returned it the following day as stipulated by the rental contract. Unfortunately, she dropped the car off on a Sunday - a day on which the particular Enterprise office is closed - and the car ended up being stolen overnight.
Now, two months later, CBC reports that Cockerill received a bill from Enterprise for the full replacement of the car totaling $47,271 (a base 2014 Mustang GT Convertible currently costs $40,349 in Canada). As it turns out, the fine print in the contract says that the renter is responsible for cars dropped off after hours until it can be inspected the next business day - this is also reflected on the key drop seen in the news report video, which states "vehicles returned after hours are the responsibility of the renter until inspected on the next business day."
It's not clear how much, if any, of that amount Cockerhill will be responsible for once her insurance company gets involved, but if the insurance company refuses to pay, Enterprise will bill the amount to the credit card she provided during her rental. While this ordeal is far over for Cockerhill, it's a good reminder for the rest of us to always read the fine print.
