Here is a good project for someone looking for a convertible. Its a 1968 Galaxy XL Convertible that will need total restoration. I took it on trade and have no time to do the car. It can be used to restore or parts. Its very complete but not totally. As u can see in the pics, it has its share of rust. Frame has rusted areas that will need attention or replaced. the body is fairly decent with past bodywork done to it. I do have the front bumper but it will need a better one. The quarters have been patched, the doors are very decent but will need a little work but usable, the fenders are nice and will also need very minor work. Has very rare hide away headlights that im told work perfect when the car is running. The deck lid has been redone but the previous owner when they started the restoration. The hood is very nice. Most of the trim is on the car. All the glass is there and good. Windshield has a couple stone chips but no cracks. It has the XL interior with the exception of the front seats that have been replaced. The interior will also need to be restored and does include the original center console that is in surprisingly good shape. looks like the shifter handle is wrong. I have not tried to start it, but was told that it starts, moves, and stops but has a miss in the motor. I did how ever put a battery in it and many things powered up and worked, including the headlights, taillights, blinkers, radio (aftermarket), and of course the power top which went down and back up smoothly with no problem. It will need a new top installed. The brake pedal is firm and appears to have good brakes as i was told. Its a 390 2V with an automatic transmission that appears to be original and all there. Surprisingly also, the floors and trunk floor are in very nice shape and dont appear to need replaced. The tires hold air but sorry i dont have the hubcaps. That being said, keep in mind that i would like to sell it as a project and have listed it as such. Im located in Michigan in the "thumb" region and would be happy to help with transporting within a reasonable distance. I ma including my number to be able to best answer all question personally rather than trying to describe things thru email. I am listing it with NO RESERVE so u have a chance to win it very cheap. Thanks for looking at my car and happy bidding. 989-670-2700 call or text.

280-bhp Elemental RP1 revealed, now with bike-engine option

Thu, Jun 26 2014

The Elemental RP1 might be Britain's next big boutique roadster success story. Designed by a team with Formula One experience, it aims to mix road car drivability with racecar performance in a single, adaptable package weighing less than 1,000 pounds. It was first previewed a few weeks ago, but the secrecy has finally disappeared due to its upcoming debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. The backbone of the RP1 is a carbon fiber and aluminum tub onto which the front and rear subframes bolt on. Inside, it has an F1-like, feet-up driving position that allows for additional underfloor aerodynamic aids to improve downforce. Despite its hardcore nature, Elemental says that it wants the car to be very user friendly. Buyers should be able to drive the RP1 to the track, adjust it with some wrenches, go racing and drive it home. The company even claims the storage areas to either side of the engine offer enough room for a helmet and other racing gear. Hopefully, buyers don't crash, though, otherwise they might be stuck. Elemental is adding two more engine options for the RP1, as well. In addition to the previously announced tuned Ford 2.0-liter EcoBoost with 280 horsepower, buyers can also choose a upgraded version of Ford's three-cylinder 1.0-liter EcoBoost or a model aimed at pure track use with a 999cc Honda Fireblade motorcycle engine. The 2.0-liter uses a six-speed sequential manual gearbox, and a limited-slip differential and alternate gear sets are available as additional options. The first RP1s built will be pure racers for the 2015 season, and the first road cars will follow in the early summer of next year. Pricing isn't set yet, but scroll down for more details and full specs of Britain's latest feather light car for road and track. Introducing the Elemental Rp1 Press Release: 23/6/2014 British sports car manufacturer, Elemental Motor Company Limited, today released further details of their new and innovative, road legal track car, the Rp1. The Rp1 is an open top, road legal, mid engined sports car that incorporates state of the art road and race car technologies. Designed, Engineered and Built by a team with decades of experience in the Formula One and Supercar industries, it brings the concept of a road legal track car firmly into the 21st Century. The Rp1 will be revealed to the public for the first time, this weekend, at the 2014 Goodwood Festival of Speed, where it will located in the Moving Motor Show tent "First Glance" display.

Ford Mondeo with 1.5-liter EcoBoost debuts in China

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

Does the car above, posing fancifully in white, look familiar? Well, it should. Although it wears Mondeo badges in the form you see above for the Chinese market - as it does in Europe - the car is basically the same thing sold in the US as the Ford Fusion. Of course, it's what's under that shapely skin that counts.
Ford has chosen the Shanghai Motor Show as the venue with which to unveil its 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine. We'd heard about the engine before, but now we have a few performance estimates to share: 133 kW of power (about 178 horsepower) and 240 Nm of torque (about 177 pound-feet).
Those numbers pretty much confirm previous rumors indicating about 177 in each category, and it's right on par with what Ford's own 1.6-liter EcoBoost produces. Ford is claiming best-in-class fuel economy as well, but no specific figures have yet been provided. In any case, we'll surely have all the data soon enough, as the 1.5-liter mill is destined for the US Fusion in 2014.
