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.

Ford Mondeo Hybrid could beat unloved diesels in Europe

Wed, Feb 11 2015

Predicting changes in the European auto market isn't easy, and Ford is hedging its bets there with the introduction of the Mondeo Hybrid. The Blue Oval has no expectation of the electrified version of the sedan being a rollicking sales success, but the model is a fuel-efficient alternative in case the recent backlash against diesel turns into an outright ban somewhere. This is the first time Ford is selling a hybrid version of the Mondeo (a cousin to the Fusion in the US) in Europe. The vehicle pairs a 2.0-liter Atkinson cycle four-cylinder with a 1.4-kWh battery pack to make a total of 185 horsepower and emit 99 grams per kilometer of CO2. The Blue Oval expects to sell around 100,000 units of all versions of the sedan annually there, according to Automotive News Europe. However, fewer than 5,000 of those are predicted to be the gas-electric model. "Legislation around Europe is so different it's very difficult to predict," Roelant de Waard, Ford of Europe sales boss, said to ANE. "If you're betting only on one horse you might be lucky, but you also may be very unlucky." Ford is probably smart to have alternatives ready, and it also already offers the Focus Electric and hybrid C-Max there. Governments in Europe are rapidly turning against diesel, especially in France. The country considered offering buyers 10,000 euros ($11,300) if they trade in an old oil-burner on a new electric vehicle, and the prime minister calls backing the fuel for so long a mistake. The UK's Labour Party is making similar declarations.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST

Tue, 15 Oct 2013

I'm not overly inclined to professional jealousy, as a rule. Sure, I go a bit green around the eyes when Ramsey draws the 911 GT3 trip to Weissach, Harley is tapped-in to drive a completely stunning Porsche 911 by Singer, or, you know, Drew Phillips gets to shoot a Lamborghini Veneno in the middle of a desert like some sort of sheik. I hate you guys...
Honestly though, one of the new car events that dug me the most, was when our Steven J. Ewing got to fling the Ford Fiesta ST around some hot corner of Europe. What goes around comes around, I suppose, as Mr. Ewing himself espoused an envious nature of the Focus ST trip that came before.
The good news in all this covetous intra-office behavior? All the cars mentioned, and specifically the Fiesta ST, are just wonderful to drive. I can say that with more confidence than ever now, having joined Ford for a good bit of Fiesta-flinging myself. In my case, the locale was slightly more pedestrian (Michigan not Portugal), and the car in question was the five-door version of the Fiesta ST that we get here in The States, as opposed to the three-door number they get across the pond.

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
