1967 Ford Galaxie Fastback Survivor! on 2040-cars
Clifton Park, New York, United States
|
For sale is a 1967 Ford Galaxie. Original car with 118kmi. I purchased the car from the original owner family. Exterior has original paint on most of the car. Some of the lower sections have been painted many years ago, and some work was done on the quarters, again many years ago. This car is very solid, but the work on the quarters needs to be redone properly. Reproduction quarter panels for this car are around $300 for the pair. The floors are clean and solid. I intended on fixing the quarters and blending the paint to match the original paint, but of course you could refresh the paint entirely in any color you choose! The factory paint is oxidized, but should shine nicely with a little work. I wet sanded a small area on the trunk and found it will polish up well. The interior is in great condition. Last year I completely overhauled the brakes on all four corners. I had new drums, hardware kits, wheel cylinders, and shoes professionally installed. I went with original parts instead of adding disc brakes because the car is completely original. The brakes work excellent! The rims are late model Mustang GT. The car is an automatic with a 289ci V8. I added a Pertronix III electronic ignition and flame thrower coil, as well as 8mm wires. Included is the original FoMoCo stamped radiator that has a small damage to a cooling fin that leaked a little bit, so I removed it to have is brazed and put a replacement radiator in there for now. I also bought the correct Ford stamped radiator hoses for the reinstall of the proper radiator. Also included is a set of wheel well trims to replace the one that is dented, and a rear deck lid trim to replace the one on the car. There was some work done on the frame long ago. There is a small area at the rear rail that needs a bit of attention. It runs great and the car drives very nicely! It's registered and on the road. I drove it almost daily all last summer when the weather was nice, and this year I just haven't had the time to enjoy it as much as I would like to so I am offering it for sale. It is reliable and cruises down the highway at 75mph with no problems. I believe this car could be driven across the country. I want the new owner to be happy with their purchase. Please ask any questions before purchase. I encourage you to come see and drive the car. I am open to offers. I might also consider a Volvo, S60, v70, v70xc, or xc90 with the 5 cyl Please ask any and all questions prior to bidding. Please come and see/drive the car to verify anything you are concerned about. This car is being sold as-is, where is, without warranty or returns. $500 non-refundable deposit is due upon selecting to 'buy it now'. The remainder is due in cash at pickup. The car must be picked up within 7 days of the auctions close. If for any reason you do not complete the transaction you forfeit the $500 deposit as a processing fee. I am willing to work with you for pickup if you need more time, but this must be arranged prior to purchase commitment. |

Ford rolls out diesel Focus ST at Goodwood [w/poll]
Sun, 29 Jun 2014If you're in the market for a hot hatch, there are some excellent choices at your disposal - especially if you live in Europe. But if you want a diesel, well, your choices become rather more limited. Volkswagen tends to that niche market with the Golf GTD (essentially an oil-burning version of the GTI available Stateside), but that's about the extent of it. The pleas of those looking for more diesel-burning hot hatch choices haven't fallen on deaf ears at Ford, with the Blue Oval not only rolling out a facelifted gas-powered Focus ST at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend, but also a new diesel version as well.
The diesel Focus ST (which we hope and pray isn't marketed as the STD) packs a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four producing 182 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque to propel the oil-burning hot hatch to 62 in 8.1 seconds en route to a top speed of 135 miles per hour. With less power and only slightly more torque, that makes the diesel Focus ST considerably slower than the gasoline one, which packs 252 hp and 270 lb-ft, runs to 62 in 6.5 seconds and tops out at 154 mph, but (in a testament to how far particulate filters have come) the diesel model cuts carbon emissions by nearly a third compared to the petrol version and returns about 50-percent better fuel economy, which makes that much more of a difference in markets where diesel is already priced better than gasoline at the pump.
For buyers who wouldn't consider anything other than a diesel, it also represents 23-percent more power than the previous top-level diesel Focus. The VW Golf GTD, for reference, offers up 181 hp (just 1 horse less), 280 lb-ft (15 fewer torques) but is somehow estimated to reach 60 in a considerably fleeter 7.4 seconds.
J Mays on the 2015 Ford Mustang
Thu, 05 Dec 2013J Mays, head of design at Ford, may be retiring from the company after 16 years, but not before showing the world his swan song: the 2015 Mustang. Ford officially revealed its new coupe and convertible to the public at events around the world on Thursday, including a live unveiling on ABC's Good Morning America, and Mays was in attendance at the automaker's home event in Dearborn, MI, which is where we caught up with him for a few words about his new baby.
"It's a joy" to design the Mustang, Mays told Autoblog, adding that this sixth-generation coupe is his "favorite design so far." Of course, the 2015 model takes cues from all of the generations that came before it, but Mays said it was important to edit down the specific elements from previous models, leaving just enough off to let the customer "participate and fill in the blanks."
"If it doesn't sell itself, you probably aren't a Mustang fan."
2017 Ford Super Duty trucks recalled because the fuel tank could fall off
Wed, Dec 21 2016Bad news from Dearborn. Ford just announced a pair of recalls, including a particularly worrying flaw in the new F-Series Super Duty. According to Ford's official announcement, there are roughly 8,000 of its big trucks on the roads with a missing reinforcement bracket – if it's not there, the fuel tank could separate from the frame. Yes, Ford is basically saying the fuel tank could fall out. We don't need to explain why this would be a very bad thing. Fortunately, no owners have experienced said bad things – Ford claims it's unaware of any fires, injuries, or accidents resulting from the flaws. The Kentucky Truck Plant built the affected pickups between August 10 and September 17. The bulk of the vehicles are in the US – 7,103, to be precise. Another 964 are cruising around the frozen Canadian tundra, while two more are in "federalized territories." The other recall is smaller, but reaches across a broad swath of the Blue Oval's family vehicles. Ford says there are 1,352 Taurus sedans, Flex crossovers, Explorer SUVs – including the Police Interceptor Utility variant – and Lincoln MKTs equipped with the company's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 that could catch fire. In this case, the danger isn't a detached fuel tank, but an "improperly brazed turbocharger oil supply tube" that could leak and spill engine oil on the turbocharger. Again, Ford isn't aware of any fires, accidents, or injuries due to the flaw. Here's the breakdown of manufacturer dates and location: 2016 Ford Taurus vehicles built at Chicago Assembly Plant, Oct. 18, 2016 to Nov. 2, 2016 2016-17 Ford Flex vehicles built at Oakville Assembly Plant, Oct. 18, 2016 to Nov. 10, 2016 2017 Ford Explorer vehicles built at Chicago Assembly Plant, Oct. 15, 2016 to Nov. 12, 2016 2017 Ford Police Interceptor Utility vehicles built at Chicago Assembly Plant on Nov. 2, 2016 2016-17 Lincoln MKT vehicles built at Oakville Assembly Plant, Oct. 18, 2016 to Nov. 10, 2016 As with the Super Duty recall, most of the affected cars, crossovers, and SUVs are in the US market. There are 126 units in Canada and six in the same "federalized territories" mentioned above. In the case of both recalls, dealers will inspect the affected parts and replace or add them as necessary.
