1957 Meteor Rideau500 2dr Hardtop on 2040-cars
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Vehicle Title:Clear
Make: Ford
Drive Type: RWD
Model: Fairlane
Mileage: 199,999
Trim: Meteor Rideau 500
Here is an extremely rare 1957 Meteor Rideau 500 2 door hardtop. This is the Canadian equivalent to the Fairlane 500. Total production was only 2,254 units. There are only a handful of these cars in restored or nice presentable condition left. This car is an older frame off restoration that has always been garaged and cared for - I believe it was restored in the early 1990's, and was a West Coast car since new. It still presents very well and is a beautiful driver. Paint is very nice with some small chipped areas. It is painted in the original yellow/black/white tri-tone color scheme, but the yellow is brighter than the original Ford color that year. Stainless is intact and shows pretty well -- there are some minor dings and marks in the trim, but still looks very good. Interior is very nice presentable original, with some wear on the driver's seat cushion. Original padded dash and visors are nice. The weatherstripping on the driver's door needs to be adjusted so the door fits the quarter panel a little better -- it seems that the reproduction weatherstrips are a too thick or stiff, and that holds the door out slightly. I am missing the small "Rideau500" trunk script. Very clean inside and out, and is very clean underneath. This Meteor has Master Guide power steering, Swift Sure power brakes, and is powered by a 292 yblock and the 3 speed Ford-O-Matic auto trans. New Diamondback Classic www tires just mounted. It runs and drives out great - I would be confident to drive this car anywhere, and it gathers a lot of great attention where ever it goes, as it is a really striking car. Again, this is an older restoration in excellent condition, and I rate this car as a beautiful driver, but it is not a #1 show car. I have this car stored in the Vancouver, British Columbia area. Since this car is advertised in other publications and venues, I may end this auction at any time. Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs. Payment is by certified funds. Good luck and happy bidding!

Mustang retakes monthly pony car sales crown from Camaro
Wed, Dec 3 2014Going back to their origins in the Swinging '60s, the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro have been fierce rivals for fans' hearts and dollars. Historically, the Ford often led in volume, but Chevy took the muscle car top spot in 2009 upon the Camaro's rebirth. However, with the launch of the latest Blue Oval pony car, the tide is turning back in Ford's favor. November was the first full month of sales for the new 2015 Mustang, and according to TheDetroitBureau.com, the model did spectacularly well. The Blue Oval shifted 8,728 of them, up 62 percent from same month last year, with the automaker proclaiming it the model's best November sales since 2006. Conversely, 4,385 units of the Camaro were delivered, down 13.5 percent year-over-year, meaning its sales were roughly half that of the new-generation Mustang. Ford is understandably happy with the results, and product development director Raj Nair even hinted to TDB that another version of the Mustang might be unveiled at January's North American International Auto Show. Rumor has it that the model will be the even more potent Shelby Mustang GT350R. Despite the Mustang's November success, the Camaro outsells it year to day. So far in 2014, Ford has sold 73,124 Mustangs versus 79,669 examples of the Camaro. With December offering the last chance for an overtake, the Bowtie may yet remain king for this year's sales crown. A new Camaro is peeking over the horizon, as well. It's reportedly moving to the Alpha platform used by the Cadillac ATS, and production could start in late 2015. Prototypes are already testing at the Nurburgring, and camouflaged examples have been spotted weirdly being compared to its '80s forefather.
Jay Leno sees how the other half lives with CHP cop cars new and old
Mon, 01 Jul 2013Comedian Jay Leno is changing gears from driving fast cars to checking out some of the police cruisers that regularly chase down and dish out punishment to those fast cars. In this episode of Jay Leno's Garage, we get the lowdown on the modifications made to the Ford Explorer for the Interceptor package (which looks pretty tough in its California Highway Patrol livery).
The new Ford is cool, but cooler still are the pack of classic CHP cars that Jay has along for the episode. A 1982 Mustang, 1966 Dodge Polara, 1970 Mercury Monterey and 2000 Crown Victoria are all in the shop. Better still, Jay lays out an argument for ones of the classic cruisers as the best cop car of all time. Get your guesses in now, and then scroll down to watch and learn.
