Up for auction is a pair of 1962 Galaxie 500's. The first is a G code 406 4 speed car. It is in need of complete restoration. It has a good frame. The floors were patched years ago, and it was a drag car for much of the 70's. It has its original heavy duty front and rear suspension. It retains its 9" rear end but no hog head. It has no interior except a back seat. It has rust in the rear quarters and in the trunk. The inner fenders have been cut out for fenderwell headers. I have a clear title in hand for this car. It will be the gray car in the pictures below. The second car is also a 62 Galaxie 500 that I purchased as a parts car for the 406 car. It is nearly complete minus an engine and trans. It has a full interior all of its trim. Fair body panels, floors and trunk. I was going to use the body of this car to replace the rusty cut up body of the other car. This car does not have or come with a title. This auction is no reserve and sells to the highest bidder. The auction is for both cars. I have the complete 406 engine, tripower, and a 4 speed available for an additional cost but is not included in this auction. Delivery available at a cost or worked into a deal. Please contact me with any questions. This car is truly a piece of history that needs restored. Thanks and happy bidding!!!  Cell# 765-376-3486

I have been asked for the VIN numbers on the cars so I thought everyone in the auction should have them. The Gray car is: 3E63GXXXXXX  and the black car does not carry a title. It was originally a V8 3 speed manual trans car. Also the G code was originally Ragoon red with Red crush interior, and came with a single track 4.11:1 9" rear, and a Borg warner T-10 4 speed trans, and obviously the 406 tri-power engine.


On Jan-27-13 at 14:25:31 PST, seller added the following information:

For everyone interested in the engine.... If I am going to let the engine go it will be in a package deal with both cars, and the engine. I have a Borg warner trans that is not date code correct for the car that I will put with it as well. The engine is complete from breather to oil pan. I was running when I pulled it out of the car and is now sitting on my engine stand. Pictures are available at request. It takes $8000 for everything. If you are interested in it I can ad a "buy it now" price to the auction.

Tanner Foust gets eponymous hotted-up Ford Focus ST from Cobb Tuning

Thu, 14 Mar 2013

Racer and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust has partnered up with Cobb Tuning to create a special-edition Ford Focus ST. The limited-edition hatches will come packing a reflashed ECU, special intercooler, tweaked intake and freer-flowing exhaust for up to 20 percent more power than the stock creation. Cobb says that the changes should push the final dyno figure to above 300 horsepower. Buyers can also expect to find special carbon fiber aerodynamic bits on board along with a new grille, graphics and wheels. Cobb hasn't released pricing on this Tanner Foust Edition Ford Focus ST as of yet, but you can bet the whole kit won't be cheap.
Fortunately, the company will sell you bits and pieces from the overall package for your Ford, and word has it engineers are also whipping up a Foust Fiesta ST. Look for Cobb's Focus ST website to go live next month, complete with accurate specs and pricing. Until then, enjoy clicking through the gallery here.

Ford hit by lawsuit over hybrid technology from, surprise, Paice

Fri, Feb 28 2014

The name Paice will be familiar to anyone who's been deep in the weeds of hybrid history, but it will probably be new to anyone who simply drives one. The key part of the story is something called "HyperDrive," which is the name given to a gas-electric powertrain technology developed by Alex Severinsky and patented in 1994. HyperDrive is a way to get the energy from both the electric battery and the engine into the wheels, seamlessly. The patents are held by Paice, which is an unusual company (its HQ is a house in a retirement community, right by a golf course) that does nothing but litigate. You can read more on Paice here. The latest case targets Ford and the hybrid and plug-in versions of the C-Max and Fusion models as well as the Lincoln MKZ. Paice claims that it held "over 100 meetings and interactions with Ford" between 1999 and 2004, and gave the automaker, "detailed information about the hybrid technology that Paice had developed." The suit also alleges that: For more than five years, Paice answered inquiries from multiple departments within Ford, believing in good faith that a business relationship between Paice and Ford would be mutually beneficial and advance the acceptance of Paice's technology. ... After years of Ford learning the details of Paice's hybrid drivetrain technology, Ford elected not to enter into a business relationship with Paice. The suit is officially known as, "Paice LLC v. The Ford Motor Co., 14-492, U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland (Baltimore)" and you can read the PDF here. Ford told AutoblogGreen, "we do not comment on pending litigation." Toyota settled a similar patent-infringement case in 2010 and now pays Paice almost $100 for every hybrid it sells. Paice is still in court against Hyundai and Kia. In 2010, Ford also settled with Paice but they agreed to keep negotiating on other issues until at least January 1, 2014. With that date now in the past, it didn't take long for Paice to file papers to get the two sides back before a judge. That's where it appears to be most comfortable.
