The item you are bidding on is a 1969 Ford Galaxie 500 Hardtop Coupe.  It is equipped with a 6.4l 390 cubic inch V8 powered by a 2bbl carburetor.  It has a three speed C6 automatic transmission.  It has power steering, power brakes, front disc, rear drum, and air conditioning equipped.  The AC does not work, the system holds refrigerant, but the compressor will not power up, and the expansion valve is bad.  The heater control panel works somewhat, but blower control is sketchy.  The body is fairly straight, with the exception of the left front fender, which has dents that were pulled.  Bumpers are bent and have surface rust.  Side trim was removed.  Door locks are inop.  Car runs and drives.  It needs carburetor work, as it requires starting fluid first thing in the morning to start, will start fine the rest of the day.  All lights work, except hazards, which work intermittently. Previous owner installed new dual exhaust with turbo mufflers, sounds good.  Needs a lot of interior work.  I have door panels, but left one has major damage.  Seats need recovered.  Headliner and carpet are missing.  There is some fiberglass work done in the trunk.  Floor pans need to be replaced.  Tires have tread but need to be replaced.  The vinykl top is coming off and there is rust underneath.  The only place I am aware it has rusted through is below the rear windshield.  Dash pad is cracked.

The bottom line:  This car runs and drives good, is a lot of fun to drive, gets a lot of looks.  I suspect the carburetor is bad, a reman one runs about $125 from rockauto.  I would hang on to it if I didn't already have another car I am restoring.  I drive it regularly as I don't like to let it sit.

I am making no guarantees on this car.  It needs to be restored.  It is being sold as is.  Period.

Ford Australia reveals updated Territory, Falcon via Twitter

Mon, 28 Jul 2014

Ford may have tied together much of its global lineup under the One Ford campaign, but one market where it still offers unique products is Australia. That will soon draw to a close as well, but before it does, the Blue Oval's Aussie operations are rolling out refreshed versions of its two unique products. For the moment, Ford isn't revealing much in the way of powertrain details, but it has shown off a couple of snaps of the revised products on its in-market Twitter feed.
First up is the new Territory. The SUV is neither based on a front-drive crossover platform nor on a truck frame, but shares its rear-drive underpinnings with the Falcon, taking it a step beyond the Falcon wagon alongside which it sits in Ford's Aussie range. Like the outgoing third-generation SZ Territory, the facelifted version is dominated by a narrow grille and larger front air dam, but further punctuates its big-chinned look with more rugged lower cladding and other metallic inserts that bring its look up to date.
And there's the Falcon, which Ford revealed in XR8 trim just last week and is now presenting in G6E spec. If the XR8 is the performance model, the G6E is the luxury version, swapping in more refined trim like a chrome-slat grille (instead of a black honeycomb), chrome foglamp surrounds, less-aggressive multi-spoke wheels (instead of five-spokes) and a flatter hood (instead of a power bulge). Otherwise, it looks essentially the same as the one we saw last week, its facelift bringing it more in line with the smaller, front-drive Mondeo (which we know here as the Fusion) and other members of the Ford family.

Hennessey unleashes 2015 HPE700 supercharged Ford Mustang

Sun, 05 Oct 2014

Thanks to the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat there is a new magic number in the muscle car world - 707. To raise eyebrows these days in the power war, a vehicle needs to match or preferably exceed that palindromic figure. The tuners over at Hennessey took a look at it for their 2015 HPE700 Mustang and decided to go one better. Well, ten actually, because they bestowed their latest creation with 717 horsepower and 632 pound-feet of torque.
The HPE 700 Mustang takes the standard Mustang GT with its 5.0-liter V8 and turns up the power a few hundred notches with a Roots-type supercharger running at 7.25 psi. Hennessey claims that this boosted 'Stang can rocket to 60 miles per hour in about 3.6 seconds and cover the quarter-mile in 11.2 seconds at 131 mph. For those keeping score at home, those figures are very similar to Challenger Hellcat.
To cope with all of the added boost, the engine gets a high-flow throttle body, upgraded injectors, new fuel pump, stainless steel exhaust and Hennessey's calibration for the engine management. Pricing for the package is $59,500, including the base 2015 Mustang GT, but the company is limiting production to 500 units for the 2015 model year. Founder John Hennessey told Autoblog that he has already received about a dozen orders for them.
