1965 Ford Galaxie Red on 2040-cars
Yonkers, New York, United States
|
This awesome Galaxie 500 has been professionally re-formed into a mildly modified 100% street legal muscle car. A few modifications have been added. She was built and dressed as a 427ci p engine with mid-rise 427ci 425hp heads and manifold, dual Ford aluminum quad intake with two, new Holley 600cfm carburetors. A 427ci solid lifter cam & a dual point distributor from a 63 1/2 Ford. The car is equipped with an MSD electronic ignition and cooled by a high capacity radiator. The car runs at a perfect 185 degrees. Hooker Competition Headers and dual Flow Masters add to the fun! Behind the 425hp engine is a very strong and brand new, all steel Borg Warner T-10 4 speed transmission with a HURST shifter and heavy duty drive shaft. New heavy duty clutch & clutch plate was also replaced recently. The rear axle assembly is a Detroit Locker with Richmond 4.10 gears and 31 Spline axles in a Ford 9" nodular casing. A competition engineered custom 4-foot ladder bar has been added to the rear suspension along with all chrome Molley rounded tubing, cross-members, supports, new springs and air shocks to add to the incredible performance of this car. To top it all off, a fiberglass Thunderbolt hood has been added. The level of workmanship on this car is amazing from top to bottom. Every inch of this restoration has been thought out to the last detail and it shows. Although a true performance package has been added to this Galaxie 500, it is still a very tame street cruiser when you want it to be. Long drives are a pleasure. With all the Engine Talk out of the way, this car still retains alot of its originality as well. The body is 100% rust free and all steel. No bondo. It was originally bought in FlagStaff Arizona until it was brought to NY in 2008. The car has been beautifully refinished in its original Rangoon Red and is nearly perfect as is the chrome and trim. The interior is incredible and has all new red rolled upholstery and headliner. All safety equipment such as headlamps, brake lights and signals work properly. The heater, gauges and odometer work as they should. The speedometer is not working. Windows roll up & down easily. This is a factory RADIO DELETE car. Mileage reads 76000 which is correct. She rides on 16" period correct American Racing Torque Thrust rims on 4 new Falken Tires... 225/60s in the front and 235/60 in the rear. Overall, in our opinion, this is a solid, much better than average #2++ car that is 100% roadworthy, safe and completely reliable. it is a car that was plentiful in its day but is rarely seen today, especially at this level and condition. Feel free to ask questions. Road tests are welcome. If youd like to fly in and see her, we will pick you up at any local NY airport. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! |

Leno talks racing with NASCAR racer Joey Logano
Wed, 02 Jul 2014Jay Leno has to be under significant pressure knowing the appetite his fans have for a new Jay Leno's Garage video every week. This time, Jay takes a break from his usual format (something he's been doing with some frequency as of late) and goes back to his roots as a talk show host. There's no classic in the garage his episode with an interesting story to tell and a sumptuous exhaust note. Instead, the focus is purely on interviewing 23-year-old NASCAR racer Joey Logano about what it's like to be a racecar driver in his Ford Fusion.
Logano started racing at the tender age of six and has risen up the circle-track ranks to the big show of the NASCAR Sprint Cup. The two of them talk about what it's like to compete in the sport today compared to yesteryear, and Logano shares some racing anecdotes. Of course, they also get into what it's like to be on the racetrack controlling a car with about 850 horsepower, a four-speed manual transmission and brakes without any power boost. Scroll down to watch the video.
2013 Ford Mustang V6
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Secretary Trim, Evolved
There was a time not so long ago when opting for a base Ford Mustang meant getting little more than some sheetmetal, an anemic four-cylinder engine and what may very well have been the world's most disappointing automatic transmission. During the Fox Body years, Ford seemed hell-bent on living up to Carroll Shelby's derogatory description of the coupe as little more than a runabout for demure office assistants, and the result was a base model with fewer sporting intentions than a Dilbert day calendar.
Some 20 years later, hopping behind the wheel of an entry-level pony is an entirely different experience. With all of the menacing aesthetics of the brawnier GT, a well-equipped interior and a drivetrain that toes the line between efficiency and power better than few before it, the 2013 Ford Mustang V6 is an attractive option for buyers in the big coupe market. But is it attractive enough to forgo the beastly GT?
