Illinois in
the 90’s. I purchased it this summer and it is now in Dayton, Ohio. All previous body and mechanical work listed below was done by the previous owner. -I have all of the interior and exterior trim, except for the carpeting, antenna and the Galaxie 500 emblems that go on the rear quarters. The front bench seats and the dash are still in the car, but the rest was taken out. The seats will need to be re-covered and the dash is cracked in the middle. -The exterior trim is in pretty good shape and has been polished. The front bumper is in great shape and the rear is in decent shape. Rear bumper needs straightened or replaced. -The door handles are off the car and are pitted and should be replaced. -The weather-stripping is in okay shape, interior is in good shape except the floor in the driver’s foot-well is rusting out, new trunk gasket still in the package, I also have the floor mats, hubcaps and the factory bumper jack. -The exterior bodywork is about 75% complete. The hood, trunk lid and cowl vent were dipped and primed. The rest of the body has been cleaned up and straightened out. There is a new quarter patch panels and new door bottoms from about 6 years ago along with a trunk pan removed from a 1969 Arizona car. The taillight housings and lenses are in great shape. The side marker lights and turn signal lights are in good shape. -The majority of the frame is rusting out, so it will need to be addressed. - The interior is Medium Blue. The exterior was Medium Blue but black and gray primer now. -The fuel tank was removed and cleaned. It will need a new float for the fuel gauge to work correctly. It shows full now, but I’m not using the tank and I have the line disconnected and use a small gas can under the hood when I have to move the car. -The engine runs and the car will drive. Youtube video of the engine running - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lTKBYN-1Vo -The left rear wheel bearing, front brake pads, rear brake shoes and ignition coil were replaced 7 years ago along with some of the brake lines. -The tires are worn, but hold air. The wheels, including the spare, are the factory steel wheels and need to be cleaned up if they are going to be used. -It does need new A-arm bushings and the power steering return line.

Hot sales have Detroit automakers shortening summer shutdowns
Tue, 08 Jul 2014Back in May, there was speculation that the Detroit Three automakers would maintain or perhaps even extend their traditional summer shutdowns, mostly due to a bitingly cold winter that saw below-freezing temperatures infiltrate the southernmost reaches of the US, putting a chill on auto sales. Now, though, the numbers are in, and thanks to some promising sales figures, it looks like some domestic line workers are going to be working clear through July, in some cases.
According to Automotive News, Ford has slashed its traditional two-week hiatus for factory workers in half at four of its plants, while both Chrysler and General Motors will keep factories running nonstop (two plants in Chrysler's case and a third of GM's factories).
This is, as we said, thanks to some positive numbers. Chief among those is the Seasonal Adjusted Annual Rate, which was at an eight-year high of 17 million units. Individual figures were less promising. GM, embroiled in its recall scandal, still saw a one-percent increase while Ford dropped six percent in year-over-year sales. Chrysler was the big winner, though, with a nine-percent jump in June.
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 J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
