1964 Ford Galaxie 500 Fastback on 2040-cars
Whitehouse, Ohio, United States
I have listed this car a couple of times with a very fair reserve. I should of sold it a couple months ago for $11,200.00. I have lowered the reserve to $10,000, Try to build this car for that price. Car has just been painted by a professional body shop that specializes in High dollar mopars. Some of their work has been featured in magazines. This is not a trailer queen, although I took it to a local car show this weekend and this car had one of the nicest paint jobs. It goes down the road great, Runs great and shifts great. Motor has been rebuild in the last year with a mild cam. The engine is a 289 that runs great. Car has drum brakes all the way around. New wheel cylinder's, hoses and shoes up front. When I bought the car it had its original paint ( Chantilly Beige ), which I had changed to Guardsman blue. I recently put in a new interior kit. Door panels were dyed to match as they are in pretty good shape. The trunk was sprayed with rino liner type of material. Chrome is in really good shape. I put a rechromed bumper on the front and reproduction on the rear. I have included a couple of pictures of the floors that I took when the carpet was out. The floors still have the original paint on them. This car turns heads and gets thumbs up every time I drive it. Please ask questions before bidding. Car is sold as is. The tires are new takeoffs off a 2011 mustang and they are 17 inch. Car drives real smooth with them. Thanks and good luck. I can be reached at (419)265-3306 Doug

Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos
Thu, 12 Dec 2013With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.
GM already raising prices on 2014 Silverado and Sierra pickups
Mon, 14 Oct 2013General Motors must be pretty pleased with sales of its two newest pickups, the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado, as it's announced price hikes for both models, as part of a planned price tweak.
Prices will be bumped by as much as $1,500, although weirdly, they'll be offset by as much as $1,500 in cash-back offers through the end of October. Fox Business reports that GM spokesman Jim Cain said of the price hike, "With the sell down of the '13 models nearly complete, this price adjustment was planned and is a normal part of business."
The move, as Fox is quick to point out, is an interesting one, as sales of the twin pickups struggled last month relative to the Ford F-Series, while both of GM's crosstown competitors have been aggressively undercutting Silverado and Sierra prices. The F-150 starts at $24,070 and the Ram 1500 comes in at $23,600, not counting any cash on the hood. A base Silverado, meanwhile, retails at $25,575.
2015 Ford Mustang spied on video for the first time
Thu, 20 Jun 2013Not 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.
