Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Vehicle ran bad when parked in early 70's. Dad removed heads and car has sat ever since. some dents, snow depressed roof. tires missing or flat. little rust here in eastern Oregon, wear and tear by snow and summer heat. dash well preserved. upholstery ruined. dents fixable. candidate for restore. I believe the odometer shows 80 some odd thousand."

This Galaxie was driven by  a local woman who still lives and works here in town.  She isn't sure who owned the title but that was 40 years ago!  My father owned a gas station/repair/tow business.  I still own a tow business and if anyone expresses much interest in this vehicle i'll go thru the old business records and see if I can find a title for it but lets assume it was never transferred.  It could be her husband or whoever at the time had something to do with her driving this car.  I know my dad worked on it and that probably explains why he ended up with the car.  He had me remove the heads shortly before I went in the army in '73 and as mentioned it's been sitting on the ranch ever since.  I'm sure the engine was never overhauled and the car is all OEM with no restoration attempts and such.  We are in the extreme east side of Oregon, not much rust here and as you can see in the photos the dash is in great shape.  Of course the upholstery is shot.  the intake manifold for the engine is in the back seat, If the heads are still here it'd be a major project to find them.  tires are missing or worthless.  I don't think there are any dents that can not be removed by any body shop, there is some putty on the drivers side over the rear wheel well..

   I don't know what else to tell you but being a factory black/red car with factory air I think it will be a head turner if someone will take it on.  I copied this info from the data tag;  body; 54B or 34B, COLOR; A, TRIM 25, DATE 080, DSO 72, AXLE 6, TRANS; 2 AND SERIAL #; 2J52X150287.  It has a manual shifter on the column, I don't see how it'd fit on the floor with that big polarair ac unit in there!, the seats look manual (lever on LH side.)

I respond well to E mail so write and i'll always answer.   I understand the title issue, owning a tow business I know there are ways of dealing with it.   About payment and shipping.  I'll tow it as far as La Grande Or. or Boise Id. for a flat bid, any further will be at the going rate.  I'll help load if you come to rescue it.    I'll take a check or pay pal but if it's a personal check make arrangments so it clears before loading.  IE;  going to bank (weekday) etc.  in fact, you should plan on my doing that even with a cashiers check.  I can also take some plastic, when the device is working!

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle

Sun, Aug 21 2022

The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.

2013 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

2012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different.
But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows:

Ford's official Euro aftermarket partner Mountune coming to US

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

Now that we're getting a steady stream of Ford's European offerings, the aftermarket world is finally starting to catch up as well. UK-based aftermarket tuning company, Mountune has just announced that it will be setting up shop in California to provide high-performance and racing parts for Ford vehicles including the Focus ST and Fiesta ST.
Mountune lays claim to being Ford's "official European tuning partner," and US buyers will soon have access to these parts through Ford dealerships and with a Ford Racing warranty. Speaking of Ford Racing, Mountune also says that it will be working with Ford's in-house team to develop future components for both street and track. There are no specifics as of yet for which products will be offered here, but the company plans to launch a US-specific website later this month with more information.
