Up for auction a 1962 Ford Galaxie 500 with less than 102,000 actual miles. I purchased the car from a man who told me it was a garage find that he bought from an older woman. The car had belonged to her deceased husband. All original with the exception of a re-painting. Very solid car with very little rust and scrapes. These are shown in the pictures. I have owned this car for 13 years where it has sat in either my garage or barn. It has a 352 motor and a Cruiseomatic transmission, but is currently not running. The engine does turn over, but needs the gas tank cleaned and the brakes serviced to be drivable. It is not a show car, but is very restorable. It needs the interior redone including the headliner which is missing. The exterior needs some TLC and a quality paint job to restore it's true beauty. After I purchased the car in 2000, I put a whole new front end in including ball joints and idler arm. I believe my mechanic said it needed one more tie rod to be completed. I brought the car home with the intention of completing the restoration, but procrastinated and never finished the project. I am downsizing my home and possessions and no longer want to pursue completing this car. This vehicle is an amazing survivor and is fun to drive. Buyer will be responsible for transporting vehicle and the cost associated with the transport. I am setting a low reserve and have this car for sale locally and reserve the right to end this auction early. I use Paypal and prefer cash on pick up. Please, serious bidders only! Call me for any questions you may have about this vehicle. I prefer not to have text messages. Thanks for looking. Kerry 317.989.4434

Ford ditching Microsoft in favor of BlackBerry QNX for next-gen Sync?
Mon, 24 Feb 2014Ask the average consumer - at least, those who follow the goings-on in the automotive industry - which carmaker they'd most closely associate Microsoft, and the answer you'd most likely get would be Ford. The Blue Oval automaker, after all, was at the forefront of bringing Microsoft technology into cars with its pioneering Sync system, and, though reality didn't turn out as such, Ford's CEO was recently touted as a potential future head of the Redmond-based software giant. But that relationship, according to the latest reports, could be coming to an end.
Alan Mullaly kiboshed the idea of leaving Dearborn for Redmond, but more importantly Ford is tipped to be ditching Microsoft in developing its next-generation Sync system. In its place, Ford is expected to partner with BlackBerry's QNX division.
Now, before you go balking "BlackBerry?! But they're finished!" consider that QNX is (or at least was) an independent entity that Research In Motion (as BlackBerry's Ontario-based parent company was then known) just happened to have bought back in 2010. QNX provides control systems to everything from nuclear power plants and UAVs to automakers like Audi, BMW and Porsche.
Ford begins testing right-hand-drive Mustang
Wed, 20 Aug 2014Ford has officially kicked off testing of the right-hand-drive variant of its sixth-generation, 2015 Mustang, according to a statement issued by the company, which came with the above photo.
According to Ford, this will mark the first time a right-hand-drive 'Stang has traveled down the company's assembly line alongside its LHD brethren. It is far from the first of the legendary pony cars to feature its wheel on the wrong side, though, as converters in RHD markets across the globe have been making swaps for years.
Ford is planning on using the white, droptop Mustang for RHD development ahead of the car's arrival in the UK, Australia and South Africa, among other markets. Scroll down for the official press blast.
Evo grabs Ford's Fiesta R5 rally car by the scruff
Wed, 04 Sep 2013Evo and host Henry Catchpole were thinking of excuses reasons to borrow the bonkers Ford Fiesta R5 rally car for a day or two, when it struck them: the car is street legal. With access to the R5, some of the world's most beautiful driving roads in the English Lake Country nearby, and a handy video crewing hanging around, the plan seemed to write itself.
Based on the resulting video, it was a good plan. Without spoiling the video for you - something we can't really do in text as the best part is listening to the rally car run - Catchpole finds the Fiesta to be sublimely quick and massively satisfying. Even taking the car for a spin on a pseudo rally stage, after leaving the English countryside, does nothing but add to his assessment of the beastly little Ford. Scroll on below to see for yourself, and enjoy the ride.
