Summer is almost here!!
No Reserve!!
Here is my 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 XL convertible that I have decided to sell at no reserve! I have had this car for several years, but I just haven't driven much at all. Too many cars! Anyway, this Galaxie runs very well and drives good. It has a smooth and powerful 460 V8 in it. Engine runs well with no smoke or noises. Mileage on the engine is unknown. The exhaust is good with a nice low runble. You could just double check the break system and put a new top on it and drive the car around all summer and then maybe restore it next winter if desired. The tires have good tread but are fairly old. The mag wheels clean up well and have good shine, but the caps are rusted. The 46,971 mileage on the odometer is likely over 100,000.
As can be seen in the pictures, the exterior body does have some rust and bondo. The front floors are original and solid. The back floors have been patched. The trunk floor has also been patched. I have a whole rear tail panel with taillights from another '66 to replace the rusted out section of the rear panel as shown in the pictures. The passenger side frame rail has a small hole in it shown in the pictures. The rest of the frame looks good.
The interior of this Galaxie is the original 500 XL bucket seat interior. It is in decent condition with some staining and a hole in the back seat from a rodent. It could benefit from a good cleaning. The carpet needs replacing. You will also need a new battery.
All in all, this car could be driven without restoring right away. The 500 XL's are nice cars and becoming more desirable. It is a very comfortable car to drive. I have a clear title in my name and will sell to overseas buyers. I do not accept bids from "0" feedback Ebayers because they are usually non-payers. I reserve the right to cancel this auction at any time if I get an acceptable offer before the end of the auction.

Ford leads top searched-for car brands on Google in 2014
Mon, Dec 22 2014With less than two weeks until 2014 takes its final bow, anyone and everyone is looking back on the past 50 or so weeks to see how they stacked up. For search giant Google, that means its time to check out its annual Trends report. Besides the most popular search term (the late, great Robin Williams), the most searched for gadget (the iPhone 6) and most searched for disease symptoms (quite worryingly, Ebola took the crown here), we have the most searched for automaker. With the long-awaited sixth-generation of one of America's most iconic vehicles, the Mustang, and a ground-breaking update for the US market's perennial best seller, the F-Series, it should come as no surprise at all that Ford was Google's most searched for automaker in 2014. Jeep captured second place, while Dodge, took third. We suspect introducing a pair of cars with 707 horsepower had something to do with that bronze medal... Scroll down to see the rest of this year's most searched for automakers, and then head into Comments and let us know if you're surprised by any of these. This content is hosted by a third party.

Are we about to see a real SUV revival?
Wed, Mar 23 2016Now that the marketplace has been oversaturated with cute-utes, crossovers, and CUV coupes, are we about to see a resurgence of real, honest-to-God SUVs? Ummm... maybe. The stars seem to be aligning in that direction, at least that's the sense I'm getting. We know an all-new Jeep Wrangler is only a few auto shows away; and that Jeep is about to introduce a new Grand Cherokee Trailhawk for 2017, in the same rugged spirit of the successful Cherokee and Renegade Trailhawks. Ford has hinted at a neo-Bronco, after showing the concept above in 2014 to wet the mouths of all those Duck Dynasty-types out there. And, and... wait for it... I recently learned that Subaru sent a questionnaire out to some Forester owners asking if they might be interested in an off-road package if it were offered. The items listed were pretty hardcore, serious stuff, such as: integrated tow/recovery hooks, additional ground clearance, more rugged wheels, skid plates, altimeter, front-view off-road camera, improved approach and departure angles, advanced differentials, Inclinometer, full-size spare tire, upgraded off-road suspension components, more aggressive tires, off-road driving mode (engine, transmission, throttle, and steering settings), more rugged styling, low-range gearing, and a more advanced traction management system. Folks that's not my wish list (well, actually it is), but those are words from Subaru, asking if that's what customers would like to see. Need proof? Go to the SubaruForester.org website. It's in a discussion there. So... no promises or guarantees here, and feel free to call me a rumormonger if you like; but the next few years could prove very interesting for those who actually do go off road. If this pans out, remember, you read it here first. Related Video: Image Credit: Ford Ford Jeep Subaru Crossover SUV Off-Road Vehicles open road
Mustang pinball game will feature art by Ford GT designer
Fri, 13 Dec 2013To celebrate 50 years of Mustang, Ford and Stern Pinball are collaborating on a new pinball machine that will feature the muscle car in all its glory, Polygon reports. Even better, Camilo Pardo, the guy who designed the Ford GT, will provide art for the table; Tanner Foust, Top Gear USA host and professional driver, will handle narrating duties; and a Sony Music soundtrack spanning five decades will provide the tunes.
"The Mustang is one of the most iconic, American cars ever made... What better way to celebrate 50 years of Mustang than with the launch of the Ford Mustang pinball game?" says Stern Pinball CEO Gary Stern.
Watch the promotional trailer for the upcoming Mustang pinball machine below, which will have to hold you over until pricing and availability are announced in early 2014.
