Outstanding convertible very well cared for over many years. Body is laser straight, paint excellent, interior superb. All original with 1 exterior repaint many years ago. Less than 80,000 actual miles.

Paint: excellent with very few flaws. Body panels are not only straight, but all body lines are at factory settings and doors, trunk and hood all open and close like a brand new car.

Interior: Unbelievably well preserved all original interior. All seams, accents, and vinyl and plastic parts are like new. Vinyl is supple. Dash is not cracked or warped. Carpet is excellent but is faded in a few areas. Dye it and it will look like new. There is no musty smell.

Engine: Runs excellent. Does not knock, miss or burn any oil. Drive anywhere in confidence. I took it on a 2,000 plus mile vacation with no issues. Currently has an exhaust manifold leak.

Top: Completely serviceable but has some dark staining starting to show. Another item that can be dyed and it will look like new. Has perfect glass rear window. Top boot is original, fits perfectly and is also still in excellent condition. Top is aligned correctly and goes up and down fast.

Misc: Tires are excellent, maybe 90% of tread left. Whitewalls. Factory spinner hubcaps are excellent. Stainless skirts are like new. I added aftermarket cruise control & it works like it should. AM radio works fine, as do wipers and all other accessories except clock. Glass is all excellent. Although I have owned this car for about 12 years or so, I have never waxed it and never armoralled the vinyl. I just keep it clean and dry.

Rust: None except surface rust on a few underside areas where there is no undercoating.

I looked for a top-tier 65 Galaxie 500 XL for years before I bought this one and it has not disappointed me. It will not disappoint you either. Call Mike 719-660-5504 for any additional details.

As always, no warranty is expressed or implied. International bidders welcome. Buyer is responsible for shipping. I will make car available for pickup.

I will be happy to provide any additional photos you might want.

Has the auto industry hit peak hybrid?

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Hybrids are known for their great fuel economy and low emissions, but it looks like given current market conditions, only about three percent of new car consumers are willing to pay the premium for them. A new study from IHS/Polk finds that the hybrid market share among overall US auto sales are falling, despite more models with the technology on sale than ever before.
The study examined new car registrations in March from 2009 through 2014. In that time, the auto industry grew from 24 to 47 hybrid models available to consumers, but market share for the powertrain remained almost stagnant in that time. As of 2009, hybrids held 2.4 percent of the market; it fell slightly to 2.3 percent in 2010 and grew to 3.3 percent in 2013. However, 2014 showed a drop back to 3 percent. Overall hybrid sales have been growing since 2010, but they just aren't keeping up with the total auto market.
According to IHS/Polk, this isn't what you would expect to see. Usually, each new model in the market brings along with it a boost in sales. The growth in hybrid models 2009 to 2014 should have shown a larger increase in share for the segment.

Amelia Island 2013: 50 years of the Ferrari-slaying Ford GT40

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Originally developed with the sole purpose of being a Ferrari rival to compete at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Ford GT40 became a prominent racing machine in the 1960s in both Europe and the US. Not wanting to leave such an important car out of the fun, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance also took time out from its other celebrations to recognize the 50-year anniversary of the GT40.
Over its short lifespan, the GT40 was offered in a handful of configurations, but the classic short-tailed (Mk I and Mk II) bodystyles were well represented... especially in Gulf livery. James Glickenhaus (of Ferrari P4/5 fame) had his bright yellow Mk IV in the field, and there were several others in this bodystyle, including one that has seen plenty of time on the track judging by its chipped-up nose.
As a fitting statement for the car's lengthy racing history, GT40 Chassis Number 1075 won this year's Concours de Sport award. This car took home the checkered flag at Le Mans in 1968 and 1969, and racked up a total of six wins in just 11 races.

Ford announces 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Ford has pulled the wraps off its anticipated 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition model, a new variant of the popular street-legal off-road specialist. In a nutshell, the "special" is all cosmetic - there are no mechanical upgrades to the truck and its 6.2-liter V8 (411 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque), Torsen limited-slip differential, beadlock-capable wheels and internal triple-bypass FOX Racing Shox dampers all remain untouched.
The SVT Raptor Special Edition, which adds cosmetic enhancements to the existing Luxury Package, will be offered in Ruby Red Metallic and Tuxedo Black Metallic with box-side graphics. The interior upgrades include Brick Red seat bolsters (with black inserts), cloth honeycomb highlights and a console top finish panel.
As of now, Ford has only release a couple pictures of the Special Edition model. But check back later, as we will update the gallery when additional high-res images are released later today, and be sure to peruse the press release below for all the details.
