Hi, I’m selling my 1961 Ford Galaxie Sunliner Convertible. Very “RARE” and highly collectable car. One year
only made with the 1961 Galaxie Sunliner being the last year of the “TAIL FINS,” “TURBINE LOOKING REAR
TAILLIGHTS” and bunch of other special touches that were made to this model back in the day. This car was frame
off restored a few years back to factory specs and enjoyed every single mile that was put on ever since.
It features a rare color combo Corinthian White exterior and factory 2 tone white on red interior, and new carpet
was installed during the restoration. It has a 292 “Y” block Ford Thunderbird Special engine with an auto
trans, power steering, aluminum 3 core radiator, new gas tank, new fuel lines, new brake lines, all new front end
(upper & lower control arms, ball joints, idle arms, inner / outer tire rods all the bushings, etc...), new front
to back dual factory specs exhaust etc..
Floors, trunk pan and quarters are super solid, no patch panels all original steel in mint condition. Interior is
mint with no rips tears or cuts, new powered convertible top with zip down back window. All glass and stainless is
in excellent condition. Paint is just as good as show quality with normal wear. Comes with chrome side skirts,
original bumper jack, spare tire, and original style trunk liner as you see in the pictures.
Fully working gauges, original AM radio, original clock, lights(low and high beam), blinkers, rear tail lights,
reverse lights, wipers, original heater, etc...After market Pioneer radio was installed in the glove box with USB
connection for iPod and Bluetooth compatibility for any smart phone. New Undercover II Speakers were installed
under the front seat, and the tweeters were upgraded to O Zone tweeters. To get max performance out of it all an
amp was added under the back seat. All panels remain original and nothing in the car was cut to install the
aftermarket radio and speakers. If you wish to remove it, it can be done in less than 10 min.
The car has 60,xxx original miles on the body and less then 2k miles on the engine and trans since restoration. I
am the second owner of the car, it was looked after and pampered since day one. Comes with original bill of sale
from the dealership, warranty card and other misc. papers from the time of the purchase from 1961.
Car runs and drives flawlessly. Always turns heads and draws crowds where ever I go.

What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
TRANSLOGIC 147: CES 2014 Autonomous Vehicles
Wed, Jan 15 2014We head back to CES in Las Vegas to check on the progress of autonomous vehicles in 2014. We go hands-free on the highway with Audi, narrowly avoid a collision with Ford and hear all about BMW's drifting driverless car. But first we take a ride on Induct's self-driving Navia shuttle.
How Ford's light lab keeps the sun shining on the new Mustang just right [w/video]
Thu, 02 Jan 2014Anyone who's bought one of those old school metal shift knobs knows they're really cool until they sit in a parking lot in the sun for a few hours. Then they're not cool at all. Likewise, features such as the aluminum dash on the 2015 Ford Mustang can be all kinds of neat right up until the sun hits it just the right way and sends shards of blinding light through the cabin. The Ford Visual Performance and Evaluation Lab is where engineers figure out how to make sure that doesn't happen.
Cars like said Mustang are parked inside the 30-foot reflecting dome under 6,000 watts of lights that can mimic the sun at any time of day and in any weather condition. Engineers can then spend cold, overcast days inside, testing for interior legibility, glare and reflections on every interior and exterior surface as if it were bright and sunny. They can also learn how a car's sheetmetal and colors will look out of doors, all year round.
Ford showed off the lighting lab without the music and interviews three years ago when the Explorer was being prepared. You can watch it at work again in the video below, and read about it in the press release below that.
