THIS IS A SOLID CAR I PURCHASED A YEAR AGO FROM A GUY WHO CLAIMED TO HAVE PURCHASED THE CAR FROM A FRIEND THAT HAD THE CAR IN STORAGE SINCE 1972 AND FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH IT SEEMED BELIEVABLE. THE CAR HAD THE WRONG CARB ON IT AND STILL HAD GRASS IN THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT FENDER WHEN I BOUGHT IT. IT'S A CANADIAN BUILT CAR THAT WAS SOLD IN AND REMAINED IN NEW HAMPSHIRE ALL THIS TIME. THE CAR IS VERY SOLID (MINUS FRONT DRIVERS FENDER AND A VERY MINOR SPOT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FRAME (NOT STRUCTURAL AND WHICH STILL HAS SOME DIRT WHICH NEEDS TO BE BLOWN OUT OF IT. I SWITCHED THE CARB FOR A THUNDER SERIES (I'LL INCLUDE JET KIT) CHANGED THE FLUIDS,NEW EXHAUST, SENDING UNITS (GAS AND TEMP) GOT THE DASH LIGHTS GOING, NEW RIMS AND TIRES, BRAKES, NEW DISTRIBUTER PLUGS, WIRES ETC. NEW GAS TANK, BRAKES, BRAKE LINES, CLOCK STILL TICKS (BUT DOESEN'T KEEP PROPER TIME) RADIO DOESN'T WORK, INTERIOR LIGHTS WORK AS DOES HEAT AND DEFROST. HEADLINER THREAD GAVE OUT WITH WINDOWS DOWN THIS SPRING (SEE PICS) RADIATOR EXPANSION TANK NEEDS TOPPING OFF (LEAKS) BUT COULD BE BRAZED OR REPLACED, BRIGHTWORK IS EXCELLENT AND APPEARS TO HAVE ONE REPAINT WHICH IS DULL BUT COULD BE BUFFED OUT. I'VE LEFT THE PAINT ALONE BECAUSE I ENJOY THE ORIGINALITY OF THE CAR. ENGINE SHOWS A REBUILD TAG BY PRECISION ENGINEERING OF CANADA. DOORS, TRUNK AND HOOD SHUT LIKE THE DAY IT WAS BUILT!! CRUISE-O-MATIC MAY NEED A REBUILD AS IT STUMBLED OFF A STOP FOR THE 1ST TIME LAST WEEK. (I'LL LOOK IN TO IT THIS WEEK). COLUMN SHIFT IS A LITTLE SLOPPY AND CAR HAS ALWAYS STARTED IN 2ND UNLESS MANUALLY PUT IN 1ST (EVEN IN D2). I LOVE THE CAR AND HAVE ENJOYED GETTING ICE CREAM AND GOING TO SHOWS WITH MY DAUGHTER, BUT RECENTLY PURCHASED A 63 WITH A 4SPEED AND CAN'T KEEP BOTH. THIS CAR ALSO HAS A SWING-AWAY (LESS THAN 2% OF GALAXIE'S HAVE THIS STEERING OPTION) AND 390FE. I HAVE $10000.00 IN TO THE CAR. I WILL SELL AT A FAIR PRICE BELOW THAT WITH "STUMBLE" FIXED OR NOT, DEPENDING ON BUYER. NEEDED TO LIST NOW BECAUSE '63 IS ON THE WAY!!! PLEASE CONTACT WITH ANY QUESTIONS! Forgot to mention I have the 14" rims and original distributer and brake booster. Also if they fit on the car I could be willing to throw in two spare front fenders I have off a 64 wagon and a 500 64 Galaxie.I'll revise again and switch pics when I get news on tranny or whatever the noise was. 8/26/14- talked to my mechanic yesterday who said "just drive it". This was the first transmission oil change and he thought it could just be cleaning out and that we should change again after driving for a while. Also said rear end was fluid was probably original when he changed it. I drove 60 miles today without any issues. That's it for now.

2015 Ford F-150 gets Power Wheels treatment [w/video]

Thu, 26 Jun 2014

With the introduction of its forthcoming 2015 F-150, Ford is breaking with convention by shifting from steel-intensive construction to aluminum. But what if it weren't made of metal altogether? What if it were made of plastic instead, and packed an electric motor instead of an internal-combustion engine?
Feast your eyes, boys and girls, on the new Power Wheels F-150. Built by Fisher-Price and licensed by Ford, the third-generation ride-on toy started development nine months before the full-size version debuted at the Detroit Auto Show this past January, and is hitting sidewalks and driveways across the country this September.
The Power Wheels F-150 carries a sticker price of $349.99, and there's a special version at Toys R Us with LED headlamps (just like the real F-150) for an extra $10.

This is what a 3D-printed liquid metal Ford Torino looks like

Sat, 12 Oct 2013

Artist Ioan Florea has encapsulated a 1971 Ford Torino with 3-D-printed liquid metal transferred onto the car using technology that he developed, and the result is a stunningly shiny, seamless design.
"The surface has the highest coefficient of reflectivity never achieved before," Florea told us in an e-mail, using "nano-materials and nano-pigments that create an internal three-dimensional structure and dictate the polymer how to behave." Sure... We'll leave it to him to make any more 3-D-printed liquid metal-transferred art pieces.
Florea grew up in Romania, and the motivation behind picking the old Ford as his canvas came from his childhood memories of what an American car is - "big and wide and fascinating," he says - and the European name of the car itself, which it shares with an Italian city.

Creations n' Chrome Top Notch Mustang is a one-of-a-kind fox

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

Is there a cooler car from the 1980s and early 90s to mod than a Fox-body Ford Mustang? No, there isn't. If you disagree with us, we suggest you have a look at this 1990 Mustang Coupe, which just might change your mind. Although considering just how extensively modified this car - the Top Notch Mustang from Creations n' Chrome - is, we wonder just how much Ford is left in this old pony.
It rides on a custom race tube chassis that weighs a scant 700 pounds, while carbon-fiber bits and bobs help lower the overall curb weight to a mere 2,400 pounds. When paired with supercharged, 5.0-liter, Aluminator V8 from Ford Racing, the results are, doubtlessly, exciting. 855 horsepower at the rear wheels and 667 pound-feet of torque are available from that force-fed V8 should be just plenty for this car's intended purpose of running in standing-mile competitions.
The Top Notch Mustang is more extreme than just weight savings and a big engine, though. That 5.0-liter is essentially in what's known as a front-mid layout - where the engine is actually behind the front axle. In this case, the 5.0-liter V8 is 17 inches further back than a factory Fox-body, for better weight distribution. As a result, the cabin has been completely overhauled. An SLA front suspension, wheels from HRE, Wilwood brakes and Sparco interior items round out the extensive list of mods.
