This is a beautiful 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 Convertible.   This car will be hard part with, and one I wish I could keep.  First, it's a 1966 conv, which is one of my favorite body styles for the Galaxie.. Second, it's black with excellent original red interior and Gorgeous Raven Black exterior. Third, it was bought new right here in my home town.   The condition is incredible for a car that spent it's life right here in northeastern Ohio.  Reason for the time capsule condition from what I was told is that it was bought new by the city of Lakewood, Oh and used as a official parade car in the late 60s and early 70s (stored in a heated garage if course)  Second and third owners were collectors in Shaker Hts, Oh.... The condition speaks for it's self.   This car was obviously babied and maintained every year of it's life. From looking it over,  I couldn't  find any rust at all, or body work, or evidence of an accident   The paint and chrome in great condition too, I am not sure, but I think most of the paint is original    The car runs and drives excellent.  You could cruise all day on the hwy at 70..  Very smooth, tight and straight.  Everything works except the clock. The radio works great, heater works great too.    The top is brand new with new glass window.   The boot is in good condition, although it's missing a couple snaps.  Please fell free to ask any questions   Someone would be hard pressed to find a nicer example.

XCAR stages epic drag race between Ford GT40, GT70 and GT

Mon, 19 Aug 2013

XCAR has put together what it believes is a first - a drag race between Ford's legendary, Le Mans-winning GT40, the more recent GT supercar it inspired and the little-known GT70 rally car. The three mid-engined monsters were all built for very different purposes, and not surprisingly, they come to battle with very different powertrains.
The GT40 is powered by a thumping, naturally aspirated V8. This example, which looks like a Mark IV model, is likely powered by a 7.0-liter engine, although it's not entirely clear how much power it's putting down. The GT70, meanwhile, was Ford's response to the Lancia Stratos. Considering that the Lancia is one of the greatest rally cars in history and many of you are probably just hearing of the GT70 for the first time, you can imagine how much success Ford had with it. Only six were produced before a change in regulations doomed this mid-engined rally car.
The Ford GT, meanwhile, doesn't really need an introduction. 550 horsepower is on offer from a 5.4-liter, supercharged V8, which keeps the GT competitive even against more modern supercars. 60 miles per hour arrives in well under four seconds while the top speed sits at 212 mph. Not bad for a car that went out of production in 2006.

Ford C-Max sales hold steady despite fuel economy fracas

Mon, 09 Sep 2013

Despite the ballyhoo that accompanied Ford's lowering of the C-Max fuel economy figures, the Blue Oval is still seeing strong demand for the five-seat MPV, as Automotive News reports. Speaking to marketing boss Jim Farley, AN says that the controversy surrounding the C-Max's fuel economy figures won't force Ford to change its marketing strategy.
Ford lowered the fuel economy rating of the C-Max after public outcry and legal action by customers that were unable to reach the 47 miles per gallon promised by the window sticker. The new ratings were dropped about a month ago to 45 mpg on the freeway and 40 mpg in the city. Ford offered rebates for current C-Max owners, with $550 going to those that bought their car and $325 to lessees. The issue, says Ford, stemmed from testing standards that allowed the automaker to base the C-Max's fuel economy on the Fusion Hybrid, because they use identical powertrains. The C-Max's less aerodynamic shape wasn't taken into account, though.
Whether Ford's PR team handled the crises perfectly or people just aren't that bothered by a four-mpg drop in combined ratings, demand remains strong for the C-Max among consumers. Ford moved 3,000 units in August, which was a 12-percent jump over July sales. Meanwhile, consumer demand through third-party shopping websites remains strong as well, according to Autometrics, a data analysis company that spoke with Automotive News. While the long-term effects of the adjustments remain unknown, the C-Max appears to have fared well in the near term.
