1966 Ford Galaxie 500 - Original Car, Excellent Condition, Running And Driving on 2040-cars
Bloomington, Indiana, United States
1966 Ford Galaxie 500 4 door This is a great original car. Great overall condition, runs
and drives great. This is an unrestored, unmodified, untouched original car. It
is the original paint, no damage, no repairs and all the doors, hood and trunk
fit great with even gaps. It has all the trim, hubcaps and it is complete. It
shows just under 56,000 and that is the original miles. I purchased it from the
family who owned it all its life. Please read below for all the details. Engine: 390 Cubic inch Automatic Power steering The car has had a recent tune up, transmission service,
brakes checked and carb rebuilt. It goes down the road really well, no knocks,
no smoke. It runs, shifts and idles great. When I say recent, it has only 10
miles on it since work has been done by a professional shop. New tires. Interior: The front seat has no rips although the bottom on the
driver’s side the material is separated. It may be able to be stretched and
fixed. The back seat is perfect. The dash has no cracks and has good color. The carpet is worn and torn on the driver’s side only at the
door. The door panels are worn at the top and bottom although in
good shape overall. The pillar covers are broken and a new set, the right color
comes with the car. The headliner is in good shape except for a small tear near
the back seat coat hook. I have the steering wheel chrome horn ring, it is not on the
wheel. Exterior: Original paint. It is faded although I think it could be
buffed out to drive it as is. There are a few rust spots, although not big. They are on
the passenger left hand door, the size of a quarter. The two rear fenders at
the bottom have a little rust. The floors are good, no rust. No rust in the
door jambs. The frame and underbody is good. The trunk has rust on the lip where the latch is. Also the
trunk floor has rust although only pin holes through the floor. Easily fixable. All the trim and emblems are on the car. The outside mirrors are off the car, I have them and they
will come with the car. The front bumper is rusty on the bottom half. No thru holes,
although a little rusty. The back bumper has surface rust. It is in good shape Both bumpers are straight, no dents and they are not bent. All the trim around all the doors, windows, side and around
the wheel wells is very good. All emblems are there. All glass is good, no cracks. The light bezels, front and back are good along with the
lenses. The grille has only one small dent which can easily be
corrected. This is great original car that runs and drives great, is in
great original condition, is very straight and comes with all the parts. You
can drive it now and fix it as you go or just leave it like this, buff it out
and have a great time for very little money. Pickup only, no delivery. Please arrange for pickup soon after winning as the place
where I have it stored inside was recently sold and I will no longer have that
storage location. Deposit within 5 days, via Paypal or cash or certified
check. No trades please. Please feel free to ask questions. |

2015 Ford Mustang Convertible shown on Twitter [UPDATE w/video]
Thu, 05 Dec 2013It hasn't yet been 12 hours since the hotly anticipated 2015 Ford Mustang has been let out into public view. After a series of evocative leaks over the course of the last days, we brought you a full deep dive of the sixth-generation pony car at the dawning of today. And yet, here we are rushing to bring you news of a new Mustang variant, already.
Be it part of a plan to keep the Mustang fervor at full boil, or a misunderstood email somewhere in the chain of command, Ford UK has unceremoniously tweeted a picture of the 2015 Ford Mustang Convertible. For a newly global Mustang, getting our first look at the droptop from the convertible-crazy British does make some amount of sense.
As for details, well, you're looking at them. Brandon Turkus reported yesterday that the Mustang 'vert would make use of a fully electric convertible mechanism, and that it would be of fabric construction rather than some kind of retractable hardtop. We see here that the fabric part is clearly true, and it does look as though Ford may still be employing the same kind of manually attached tonneau cover that exists right now. Of course, our view from this angle isn't great, and the particulars are still up in the air.
Ford faces class-action lawsuit for selling vehicles without brake override systems
Fri, 29 Mar 2013A total of 20 Ford customers are suing the automaker in a class-action lawsuit for selling vehicles "vulnerable to unintended acceleration." According to Reuters, the suit names 30 models built between 2002 and 2010 with electronic throttle control systems but without a brake override system. Those include the 2004-2012 F-Series pickups and the 2005-2009 Lincoln Town Car. Adam Levitt, a partner with the law firm of Grant & Eisenhofer says the plaintiffs in the case want "to be compensated for their economic losses by having overpaid for cars that contained defects." Levitt contends that the plaintiffs would not have bought their vehicles or paid less for them had they known there was no brake override system in place.
Ford began installing brake override systems in its vehicles beginning in 2010. In response to the lawsuit, Ford has pointed to research by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that indicated that unintended acceleration is mostly caused by driver error, saying in a statement that, "NHTSA's work is far more scientific and trustworthy than work done by personal injury lawyers and their paid experts."
Belville et al v. Ford Motor Co. will be heard in US District Court in the Southern District of West Virginia.
Car Club USA: Louisiana Mudfest
Tue, Jun 16 2015There's nothing quite like mudding. Big tires, huge power, and crazy-wild gearheads that like to throw down on a mud pit almost as much as a thirty rack of Coors. In the latest, and some might argue greatest yet episode of Car Club USA, we head to Louisiana to throw some dirt at Mudfest. As Louisiana's one and only Mouth of the South puts it, "If you don't mud ride... go to Texas I guess." Joining The Mouth and friendly rivals The Most Hated Mud Sluts, we dive in. Beyond the obvious V8 blasting and tractor-tire spinning, those who know best describe Mudfest as, "Good cooking, good friends, good fun, and a lot of partying." It's a motorsport spectacle unlike any you're likely to find up North or out West, though no less impressive to behold. Follow along with the fun, the impromptu drag racing, the trash talking, and the mechanical madness. And find out why, at Mudfest, "if we don't tear it up, we ain't done it right." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures.
