This is a very cool old Ford Galaxy 500 Fastback. Very rare and desirable manual shift car. Easy to make a 4 speed high performance clone out of this car. 100730 original miles. 302 V-8 3 speed on the column. Power steering. All new manual brake system. A/C that is all there but needs a shot of freon? Heater core is by passed. Must have a leak? Like new Michelin tires. New battery and alternator. Car runs out great. Body is was almost totally rust free. Just 1 little area behind each rear wheel well that I can find. Just some very minor bubbling on right rear quarter panel. See pics of trunk and bottom of right side rear quarter. One recent enamel repaint. Paint is very nice looking but not a show quality base coat clear coat job. Very solid underside with no rust issues. Interior is all original and very nice. Chrome and stainless trim is all in nice original condition.

All in all, this a great running car that you can fly in and drive home. It drives and stops very solid. It gets lots of attention everywhere it goes and would make a great clone of a 4 speed 427 car.

This is not my car. Call Artie at 314-303-5521 for more information BEFORE YOU BID. He will give you honest answers to your questions. He is trusting me with selling his car and I don't want him to be bothered with BS. He cannot give out the reserve amount because I did not give him that amount. He also cannot end the auction so please understand, accept, and respect this. We are going the let the auction run the full 10 days. High bidder that meets the reasonable reserve gets the car. If it does not sell, you can work out whatever deal you and Artie come up with directly with him.

NO TRADES

Now for the business end. I encourage you, or someone you trust or hire, to come by and check out the vehicle in person. Artie will refund your deposit if the vehicle does not match the above description. The vehicle does not leave here until all funds clear Arties bank. Bank and cashiers checks can take up to 10 business days. Bank transfers can take up to 2 days depending on what time of the day it is initiated on your end. Cash is great if picking it up in person. It is between you and Artie to work out the final payment method.

Call Artie at 314-303-5521 to get honest answers to all of your questions BEFORE YOU BID. Thanks, Dave

I do not respond to text messages

One more time, NO TRADES, Please do not ask. If you do not know, understand, and accept what "no trades" means, then you surely do not have a vehicle that I would be interested in.

I do not respond to low ball offers, text messages, or take offers over the phone. If you want to make an offer, please do so through ebay email. Include your name and contact info. If I feel you are a serious buyer, I will contact you back. If you do not hear back from me, then my vehicle must be out of your price range. Once my vehicle hits it's reserve price, I will not end the auction.

I do not give out my reserve price. Too many knuckleheads out there that like to play games with bidding just under the reserve amount with no intention of actually buying the vehicle. Makes it look like schill bidding is going on.

If you have a feed back rating less that 100% or less than 10 feedbacks, you might want to check with me before bidding. I will sometimes block or cancel bids if I get a bad feeling for the bidder. Non-paying winners are a real problem for sellers and it is hard to get seller fees refunded from Ebay in a timely manner, if at all.

For you new members, please don't bid unless you know and accept how ebay works and understand that you are legally committing to purchase if you bid. Not following through with a purchase after winning an auction for a new member can result in ebay canceling your membership.

Thanks to all, good luck with your bidding, and have a great day, Dave 314-732-592five

Truckmakers squabbling over who can sell Jimmy Fallon a pickup

Sat, 08 Mar 2014

Snagging a celebrity endorsement is a big deal for automakers, as evidenced by the recent efforts of the Detroit Three to try and woo The Tonight Show's newest host, Jimmy Fallon, into one of their trucks.
After announcing during Wednesday night's show that he was in the market for a pickup truck, Fallon set off a firestorm of efforts on Twitter, with both Ford and Chevrolet petitioning the funnyman to test out a truck. According to Ad Age, Ford recommended the King Ranch edition of its next-generation F-150 while the show was still airing. Chevy, meanwhile, waited until the next morning to pitch a Silverado to Fallon.
The winner of this social media feeding frenzy, though, was Ram. Promoting a variation of its "Guts, Glory, Ram" tagline, the Auburn Hills-based manufacturer created the hashtag #GUTSGLORYFallon. It even went so far as to park a Ram 1500 outside 30 Rockefeller Center in New York, where The Tonight Show is filmed. On the back of the Ram sat a sign, reading "Big enough, Jimmy? Test it out," referencing a joke from the Wednesday show.

Ford recalls over 680,000 Ford Fusions, Mondeos, and Lincoln MKZs for seat belt pretensioners

Fri, Dec 2 2016

Update: We spoke with a Ford representative who said that owners will be notified by mail during the week of January 16 . Dealers will also have the fix available at the same time. Owners can bring in their vehicles to dealers for an evaluation in the mean time. The main text has been updated to reflect this. The Basics: Ford is recalling 680,872 2013-2016 Ford Fusions, 2015-2016 Ford Mondeos, and 2013-2015 Lincoln MKZ s for an issue with front driver-side and passenger-side seat belt pretensioners. The Problem: The seat-belt pretensioners did not have sufficient insulation applied. When the pretensioners are activated, the heat generated can cause the cables connected to the belts to separate, which in turn can prevent the seat belts from effectively restraining the occupant. This can lead to injuries. Injuries/Deaths: Ford reports two accidents and two injuries have occurred that are related to this recall. The fix: A dealer technician will inject an insulation coating around the pretensioner. This should effectively keep the heat away from the cables, ensuring the seat belt will properly restrain the user in a collision. If you own one: Affected owners will be notified by mail on the week of January 16. Dealers will have the fix available that week, and owners will be able to bring in their vehicles for the fix to be implemented free of charge. Related Video:

Ford says 70% of its models to get stop-start by 2017

Sun, 15 Dec 2013

Ford is following up on a report we posted a few weeks back that the Blue Oval would be adding stop-start technology to its entire model range. Now, the Dearborn-based automaker has announced that the fuel-saving feature would be available on 70 percent of the company's range by 2017.
Ford claims the technology will improve fuel economy by around 3.5 percent, although its actual effect will vary based on how the owner drives - apparently up to a 10-percent improvement is possible for those who sit in heavy traffic (Los Angelenos, this means you). The latest recipient of the technology is the updated 2014 Ford Fiesta with the company's three-cylinder EcoBoost powerplant.
Part of the reasoning for the new addition has to do with cost. Ford claims the tech is affordable and easy to implement. "Simply put, Auto Start-Stop helps customers use less fuel, which is an important component of Ford's Blueprint for Sustainability," Ford's global powertrain vice president, Bob Fascetti, said.
