1964

 

Up for auction is our 1964 Ford Custom.  That's right, this is not a Galaxie, Its very rare and unusual "Custom".  

This car began life as a 6 cyl / three speed as many of the plane jane cars did.  It has been built into a 390 big block 4-speed as a clone. Everything on this car was redone or replaced.  Every car event it goes to, it gets lots of attention and draws a crowd. 

The engine is a March of '64 block and is closely dated to the car.  It is fully rebuilt with approximately 5,000 miles on it.  Bored .030 with all new internals and fresh throughout.  Holley carb and Edelbrock intake.  The transmission is a T-10 out of a '63 406 car, with a Lakewood scatter shield and all new clutch components.  The shifter is correct with the reverse lockout handle.  New balanced driveline and the stock 9" rear differential.  All rebuilt brakes.  New dual exhaust with flowmaster mufflers (sounds very cool and is not too loud).  Wheel Vintiques 15x8 steelies made for the factory poverty caps with Goodyear radials.  235/60 in front and 255/60 in the rear, giving the car a old school yet very  aggressive look.  Under the hood is very well detailed and extremely clean.

This car has been in Colorado its entire life and is absolutely rust free.  The body is very straight and has never had floors or any rust repair.  The inside of the trunk floor is untouched and looks new!  The paint is the original color and is fresh and flawless.  All of the glass is very nice, the side glass all glides up and down smoothly.  All new weather strip and moldings.  The bright work is all very nice and original, the anodized aluminum parts  appear to be NOS. The bumpers are the stock steel bumpers that are powder coated silver for that lightweight look.  The interior is all new (seats, headliner, door panels, package tray, kick panels, carpet and dash paint)  and smells like a new car.   The seats were recovered using the very last of NOS material SMS had for a '64 Ford Custom.  All gauges are restored and work properly.  Erra correct wood wheel for that Nostalgic street racer look.  Factory radio and clock delete plates. 

This car is a freshly restored Ford that is very unique and different.  Its always a great conversation piece and is a joy to drive.  I have been with ebay since 2008 and have a 100% score.  Im a honest seller who has nothing to hide, so please ask questions as I am sure I have missed something.

  Thank you for viewing my '64 Custom.      Monte   (512) 446-4044

Forza Horizon G-Shock Car Pack brings Nissan IDx, Subaru Brat [w/video]

Tue, Jan 6 2015

With winter's icy grip around much of the nation, now may be the perfect time to sit inside at night and enjoy some video games. The latest six-car G-Shock pack for Forza Horizon 2 on the Xbox One is now here, and it gives players a very eclectic group of vehicles to race around the game's open world. This month's group of vehicles spans the decades ranging from 2015 back to 1953. The newest and only concept of the group is the 2015 Nissan IDX Nismo. Since the production chances for this retro coupe look increasingly slim, this game might be your only chance to get behind the concept's wheel. However, if you prefer driving something a bit more classic and Italian, the 1953 Ferrari 500 Mondial is available. To add one more flavor of performance, there is the 2010 Mazda Mazdasped 3 hot hatch, which is also this month's free car for download. In addition to three takes on the sports car, Turn 10 is also offering a trio of off-roaders. The quirkiest among them is the 1980 Subaru Brat GL, which features two jump seats in the back to avoid the dreaded chicken tax. If you prefer something more boxy and American, then the 1975 Ford Bronco is sure to please. Finally, for some real power to get through the mud, there's the 2013 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor as tuned by Shelby with a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 making 575 horsepower. As usual, the whole pack costs players $5 to download, or it's free as part of the season pass. Scroll down for a brief video showing all of these virtual rides off and read the press release about them from Turn 10 Studios. This content is hosted by a third party.

Are you ready to hit the roads of "Forza Horizon 2" for Xbox One in some new rides? You better be because the G-Shock Car Pack is lighting up the new year with some amazing vehicles. Leading off the pack is a "Forza" First: the 2015 Nissan IDx NISMO is making its videogame debut in "Forza Horizon 2." The IDx prototype harkens back to Nissan's storied automotive history, with its compact size and aggressive appearance, and looks to the future with some serious under-the-hood performance.

2013 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

2012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different.
But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows:
2013 North American Car of the Year:

Ford Transit is America's new best-selling van

Tue, Jan 6 2015

The Ford Motor Company's sales in December ticked up 1.2 percent in the US, and the automaker was down 0.5 percent for 2014. But the Blue Oval looks like it might have a real winner on its hands when it comes to its new Transit van. The recently introduced line nearly doubled its numbers during the month by delivering 10,030 units for an annual total of 20,488 examples sold. It also gave the fullsize model the title of America's bestselling van for December. Those 10,000 sales put the Transit head and shoulders above all of its competitors in the crowded commercial van market. Second place went to the Chevrolet Express with 5,611 sales in December, and the ancient Ford E-Series was third with 5,256 moved. The rest of the segment was somewhat lower, with the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter at 3,288 units for the month, Ram ProMaster at 3,036, GMC Savana with 1,725 and Nissan NV at 1,554. December also marked the second month in a row for the Transit to beat out the E-Series in sales. However, its predecessor still won overall for the year with 103,263 units moved in 2014, but it enjoyed a full calendar year of sales. According to Ford spokesperson Mike Levine, the smaller Transit Connect had its best sales month ever for December too, and the automaker has been among the sales leaders in the van segment for the last 36 years. "Clearly, sales show we're best at meeting our customers' needs," said Levine to Autoblog, who touted the model's results on Twitter and cited the Transit's numerous configurations as its biggest selling point. Ford's latest van has other plusses, too, say analysts. "The one thing the Transit has going for it is a low base price relative to the competition. Compare the base price of the Sprinter to the Transit and it is hands-down a Transit win," said Dave Sullivan, auto industry analyst at AutoPacific, to Autoblog. Purely by model name, the Transit was also the bestselling van in November, with 4,851 deliveries. However, the Chevy Express had 4,478 sales, plus 716 more from the GMC Savana. Since these two are the same model beneath the skin, as a platform, they arguably took the title for that month. With a new year already here, the Transit has a new challenge to face. "2015 will be the year that the Transit has to leave the nest, because E-Series inventories will be close to zero and Transit will have to carry all the weight," said Sullivan.
