1966 Ford Galaxie Base 6.4l on 2040-cars
Cullowhee, North Carolina, United States
Up for sell is a running 2 door Galaxie with a 390, C6, and 9 inch rear with 3:00 gearing with 87,108 miles on the clock that I do believe to be fairly accurate. This was to be a project car, but I need the money to pay for school, more then I need the car right now. The engine has a 4 barrel Edelbrock carb and an aluminum intake. I do not know the maker of the intake or the size of the carb. I cannot prove it but I am pretty sure the car had a 2 barrel carb from the factory. The interior is worn, but the person I bought it from placed new carpet in it as well as floor mats. I believe if it was cleaned it would look great. The front seats have tears in it, mostly on the driver’s seat. I think most; if not all of the large trip pieces are with the car. They are in pretty good shape accept for the wheel arch molding witch was slightly bent and dinged up when the previous owner removed them. The original wheel covers are included. There are some small trim pieces missing. The car started life as a raven black car with a Wimbledon white top. Sometime later the top was painted black also. The only major rust issues on the exterior are on both rear wheel arches. Both have holes in them that have been patched by the previous owner with body filler. He had also started sanding the car to paint it when he sold it to me. The battery box is also a rust issue like most old vehicles. The radiator support has some holes that would need to be patched. The bottom of the trunk has rust as well as the lid where the latch is. The bumpers are also rusted and would need to be rechromed. The car has four wheel manual drum brakes. The person I bought it from told me that he had just had them redone so they should be pretty new. The brake pedal in the car says power disk brake, so I do not know what is original. The car has power steering and A/C. The A/C compressor and a bracket where in a box in the trunk, when I got the car. I do not think it is a factory air car, but was added on later. There is also a chip in the windshield. The car does run and can be driven onto a trailer. The car has aluminum wheels and the tires on it are in good shape. The lights all work as far as I can tell. Headlights, high beams, turn, brake, and the light inside the trunk works. I am not sure the fuel gauge works. The speedometer does move, but I have not driven it very far to tell how accurate it is, since it does not have a tag. The padded dash is torn up and a newer cover is placed over it that matches the carpet and the radio does not work. Buyer is responsible for pick up, but can assist in loading. Cash or cashier check only. Pick up must be within 3 days of close of auction. |

Next Ford Mustang to drop 400 pounds
Thu, 15 Aug 2013The Ford Mustang is already the lightest of the current crop of muscle cars, at around 3,600 pounds for a GT coupe with the six-speed manual transmission. That's almost 260 pounds less than a Chevrolet Camaro SS and about 450 pounds less than a Dodge Challenger R/T, which means the Mustang has a pretty big advantage when it comes to handling, braking, accelerating and economy. More good news: The next Mustang will be even lighter.
According to a report from Edmunds, the sixth-generation Mustang, which is set to debut at the 2014 North American International Auto Show, will shed an additional 400 pounds of body fat. That 11-percent weight reduction will be thanks to lightweight materials, with a particular focus on using stronger, but less material in construction. Aluminum will feature heavily, but Edmunds' inside source warns that there is "nothing terribly exotic" coming to the original pony car.
The other big news is that the new Mustang will be smaller overall. It's going to be 15-inches shorter than the 188.5-inch Mustang on sale today, while it'll also be 6.5 inches narrower. Shorter overhangs, both in the front and rear, are also good signs for those that want an agile Mustang.

Ford Mustang SVT caught looking fierce on the 'Ring
Tue, 15 Jul 2014The next-generation Ford Mustang SVT is one of the most anticipated performance cars of the moment. We've already seen it testing multiple times, but it has always been covered is some very heavy camouflage. However, Ford has just given us our best view yet of the new muscle car. According to our spy photographer, the Mustang was at the Nürburgring for high-speed testing, which meant that the Blue Oval had to remove most of the heavy obfuscation that the SVT has worn previously.
The stylish, more revealing camo makes picking out some of the more interesting details about the SVT rather easy. Starting from the front, there is the big hood scoop to feed cold air to its still mysterious engine. You can also immediately make out the model's new grille and lower front air dam. It has a vertical piece running from the bottom of the hood all the way to the ground. The aggressive styling almost gives the 'Stang the look of two fangs ready to bite down. The hood seam is even taped off here, which shows us its outline.
Around the side, it appears that the front and rear fenders are wider than stock, and the sills are certainly much larger. You can also just make out the SVT's bigger brakes behind its black wheels with a polished lip. Finally, at the rear, things appear mostly stock other than the diffuser that the exhaust outlets nestle into.
