Real solid car."

   Offering a real decent 1964 Ford Galaxie from an older farmer. Been in his barn for decades and in poor health. I pulled it out and cleaned it up and found it to be super solid. Paint is all original except for the passenger fender which appears to have been replaced and repainted at some time long ago. Typical rock chips and scratches here and there all over it. Grille has a couple minor dings as some in mouldings here and there. The seat covers and carpet were dry rotted so were removed to expose super solid floors with the original paint still on them. The car would be virtually rust free if a mouse had not moved into the left lower quarter and built a nest. Has the typical rear bumper rust line like most 64 big cars have due to mud. This car shows no salt damage any where! I put NOS fairlane seat covers (not galaxie as they were not available) and aftermarket new carpets and headliner. The motor had frozen rings on one piston causing a miss (reason he parked it) so we pulled it and remanufactured the engine including all new pistons bored cylinders .040 over size pistons,rings,turned crank -.010-.010,new bearings,cam lifters,timing components,water pump,valve job etc. Normally I would not have messed with a four door but this car was too solid and nice not to. Has a new clutch and throwout bearing. Transmission and rear end have been serviced. Replaced the rear u-joint, All NEW wheel cylinders and brake shoes. Repacked front wheel bearings. New windshield and back glass gaskets. Has original script glass. Windshield has some pitting and bit cloudy on the right outside edge. Original door panels that have some minor nicks here and there and light sun damage. Steering wheel is nice and dash and garnish mouldings have new correct rangoon red paint with clear coat. Engine internals and machine work are all documented with pictures and receipts. Interior work documented also. If you want a fun car and so perfect that you are afraid to drive it this is a solid and dependable car. Has less than 50 miles on everything done to it. Literally redid the car to sell it. You would be hard pressed to purchase a car and do what has been done to this car for the asking price.  I have about 150 project cars here and this is one of the most solid original cars I have come by for a reasonable price in a long time. I will not mind driving this one myself. This car has a lot more power than I expected and drives smooth and straight.

Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks

Sun, 31 Mar 2013

Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.

Hennessey Ford GT sets 267.6-MPH record at Texas Mile [w/videos]

Mon, 25 Mar 2013

The record-setting Hennessey-powered camouflage Ford GT we showed you at this time last year headed back to the Texas Mile and managed to bring home yet another record. As you may recollect, last year saw Mark Heidraker's machine sprint to a record 257.7 mph thanks to propulsion from its twin-turbo 5.7-liter V8. The big mill sucks down race gas, and this year the creation pulled off a 267.6-mph run over the weekend. That feat set a new record for the event. Something tells us neither Heidraker nor Hennessey are done squeezing more thrust from this machine.
This particular Ford GT has already gone through a number of permutations. Hennessey started by tweaking the factory supercharger set up before abandoning the blower in favor of two turbos. Since then, the crew has poked and prodded it to coerce as much grunt as possible out of the car. We expect Hennessey will probably come out with a video of the record-setting run shortly, but in the meantime, you can see a couple of videos of the car's runs in Texas below (one of which actually captures the record run). Enjoy.

Ford faces class-action lawsuit for selling vehicles without brake override systems

Fri, 29 Mar 2013

A total of 20 Ford customers are suing the automaker in a class-action lawsuit for selling vehicles "vulnerable to unintended acceleration." According to Reuters, the suit names 30 models built between 2002 and 2010 with electronic throttle control systems but without a brake override system. Those include the 2004-2012 F-Series pickups and the 2005-2009 Lincoln Town Car. Adam Levitt, a partner with the law firm of Grant & Eisenhofer says the plaintiffs in the case want "to be compensated for their economic losses by having overpaid for cars that contained defects." Levitt contends that the plaintiffs would not have bought their vehicles or paid less for them had they known there was no brake override system in place.
Ford began installing brake override systems in its vehicles beginning in 2010. In response to the lawsuit, Ford has pointed to research by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that indicated that unintended acceleration is mostly caused by driver error, saying in a statement that, "NHTSA's work is far more scientific and trustworthy than work done by personal injury lawyers and their paid experts."
Belville et al v. Ford Motor Co. will be heard in US District Court in the Southern District of West Virginia.
