For sale is my 1967 Ford Galaxie V8, automatic 3 speed 289 with tree on the column. It has front and back bench seats with no rips or tears, but color fading on the top of front bench seat. Dash has a crack and steering wheel has cracks in material. Car starts and runs good, I use it to cruise around on the weekend and local errands on my days off if the weather is nice. I have owned it for about a year and I replaced the brake pads, thermostat, and had a mechanic rebuild the carburetor and tune it up. I usually warm it up for about 5 minutes before I drive it and it cruises down the road and even runs 70mph fine on the HWY (although I prefer to use back roads to just cruise when possible).

I have owned the car for about a year and at first I had plans to put a 5.0 mustang engine and completely redo the interior but then my wife and I bought our dream house so the funds for this project are gone and I honestly have just moved on to a 2002 Mazda Miata convertible as my cruising vehicle (which is small but I love for anyone who is considering one). I still start the Galaxie up and will run it until it is sold so it is not just sitting around. I love the looks of this car but I was not using it enough and just decided to buy something that my wife and I could drive around the mountain roads, have fun and get good gas mileage.

My mechanic told me that if I wanted to make it a daily driver but keep the same engine I should at least update to a new carburetor. I can take a video for those who want to see and hear it run, and I can send any additional pictures upon request, please just text me at

864-906-7884 Patrick.

If I did not need a truck to haul hay for our goats and mini horses I would keep this Galaxie and slowly make upgrades to it. However,the funds from this sale will afford me to buy a truck, but I am not in a hurry nor desperate since my parents have a truck that I just borrow when I need one for now.

Ford ST Octane Academy [w/video]

Wed, 04 Jun 2014

The ST school is about more than just handbrake turns, hot laps, and sliding into parking spaces.
I felt like such a rock star. On my second pass around the UrbanCross course (read: fancy autocross) at the Ford ST Octane Academy, I absolutely nailed the exit, sliding the bright-yellow Focus ST sideways into a box the size of a parking space, all four wheels in line.

Ford's Troller introduces even more rugged T4 SUVs in Sao Paulo

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

The Bronco may be long gone from Ford dealerships back home, but down in Brazil its spirit lives on in the Troller brand. Founded independently in 1995, Ford do Brasil took over Troller in 2007 and has been teasing us with its rough-and-tumble SUVs ever since. So with the Sao Paulo Motor Show coming up, Troller has revealed this special version of the T4.
Looking even more rugged than the existing three-door sport-ute, this special T4 packs a snorkel, winch, upgraded bumpers and knobbier tires. We're not sure what to make of the "sophisticated" brown and tan paint job, but send it north and the Jeep Wrangler would have a new challenger on its hands... especially since the Toyota FJ Cruiser was discontinued.
Alongside the version seen here, Troller will also exhibit another T4 outfitted for rescue workers. Scope out initial details of both in the press release below, enclosed in both its original Portuguese and auto-translated into English.

Ford recalls over 680,000 Ford Fusions, Mondeos, and Lincoln MKZs for seat belt pretensioners

Fri, Dec 2 2016

Update: We spoke with a Ford representative who said that owners will be notified by mail during the week of January 16 . Dealers will also have the fix available at the same time. Owners can bring in their vehicles to dealers for an evaluation in the mean time. The main text has been updated to reflect this. The Basics: Ford is recalling 680,872 2013-2016 Ford Fusions, 2015-2016 Ford Mondeos, and 2013-2015 Lincoln MKZ s for an issue with front driver-side and passenger-side seat belt pretensioners. The Problem: The seat-belt pretensioners did not have sufficient insulation applied. When the pretensioners are activated, the heat generated can cause the cables connected to the belts to separate, which in turn can prevent the seat belts from effectively restraining the occupant. This can lead to injuries. Injuries/Deaths: Ford reports two accidents and two injuries have occurred that are related to this recall. The fix: A dealer technician will inject an insulation coating around the pretensioner. This should effectively keep the heat away from the cables, ensuring the seat belt will properly restrain the user in a collision. If you own one: Affected owners will be notified by mail on the week of January 16. Dealers will have the fix available that week, and owners will be able to bring in their vehicles for the fix to be implemented free of charge. Related Video:
