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 Mondeo with 1.5-liter EcoBoost debuts in China
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Does 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.
Just in time for the holidays, Snowkhana 3 is here
Tue, Dec 9 2014The gift list for the 12 Days of Christmas is frightfully heavy on birds, so surely no one will mind if we sub out the three French hens for Snowkhana 3. Ford of Europe is back with another stop-motion video that – like versions one and two – throws a 1:64-scale Ford Fiesta in Ken Block livery around a fabulous world of action figures and make believe. This year's video "drives rings around some of the biggest YouTube hits," so those of you who've lost years of your lives to the greatest distraction since the human navel can put your knowledge to use. For anyone else just catching up, we'll help you get rolling: the opening Snowkhana scene channels Stalking Cat. You'll find the rest of your holiday homework in the video.
Ford bondage ads reportedly trigger firings at Indian ad agency
Wed, 27 Mar 2013You will probably remember the ads for the Ford Figo hatchback in India, the ones that showcased the extra large boot of the little hatchback by joking that you can fit three of your enemies in the trunk. One of the ads had Michael Schumacher in the front seat, obviously pleased about having Sebastian Vettel, Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso tied up in the back. But the other two had Paris Hilton and ex-Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi up front and three bound and gagged women in the back - in Hilton's case (shown above), it was the Kardashians.
This did not go over well, and Reuters reports that certain employees at JWT India have been fired over the matter. It is also reported that the images weren't actual advertisements, nor were they part of an actual campaign; JWT said they "were never intended for paid publication, were never requested by our Ford client." A JWT rep said the employees who created the ads did so on their own, Ford commented to Automotive News that the ads were "part of a creative exercise intended to test concepts for an advertising competition."
The problem, if the story is to be believed, is that the employees skipped the regular review protocols and uploaded their work to an ad industry site - they were found on Ads of the World. That page, like the employees, has been removed.
