1964 Ford Galaxie 500 Base 6.4l on 2040-cars
Reading, Massachusetts, United States
bought the car last year to take the family in but the wife wants a more traditional hot rod so the Galaxie needs a new home!
Title in my name in hand. 1964 Galaxie 390 factory z code car 2 door hardtop just rewired the ENTIRE car front to back with a Ron Francis wiring harness. The gauges work but I need to install a new fuel sending unit (i have one but havent stopped driving the car long enough to put it in!) and a new temp sending unit (also have it) to run the gauges.Gauges tested out as they should and work. bench seats (front has a couple rips along the stitching as seen in the pics), rear is about perfect. added rear seatbelts stainless exhaust car sounds and runs great disk conversion done in the front, drums in back brand new rear tires Torque thrust style aluminum mags newer dual master cylinder have all power steering equipment but i installed a manual steering valve brand new aluminum radiator trans rebuilt last year (have receipt) for $600 new windshield last year posi rear axle no heater, radio is sitting in there but no speakers, wipers work, horn works (needs a relay to be louder), turn signals work, stoplights work, brakes work well what it needs: the paint is a 80's/90's chameleon paint that changes from green to purple to a deep black based on sunlight and time of day. generally it looks black but in the right light it changes. Sadly the hail storm did a lot of small dings mostly to the hood. decklid and roof obv. though the side panels of the car are still in great shape and the body itself is extremely straight and rust/rot free. very little bondo on the car as its a Tennesse car and has only been in new england for 1 season. . lower doors and doorjamb, rockers etc are in excellent shape. when driving or from 20 feet you cant tell but i want to be upfront. the car fires up even in 20 degree weather and runs great. did more than 1k miles in 2 months this year. it's not a show car but a very respectable driver you can get in and go now. needs window cranks for the rear windows and the front smaller windows. other than that its how far you want to take it. if i were to keep it id fill the hail dents and paint it black and flake the roof and be done. but the wife wants a traditional 40-50s hot rod so thats where im at and i cant have both. the car is a paintojob and some small interior things like window cranks away from being killer. even as is it's still bad a$$ and mean. gets compliments and thumbs up everywhere. i drive it often and hate to part with it. currently registered and insured and inspected. no trades unless its a running pre 1979 harley shovelhead or panhead FLH. |

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.

UK auto magazine says this is the best car commercial of all time [w/videos]
Thu, 20 Dec 2012There have been many great car commercials over the years, but is it possible to define the best? Well, Ad Week recently took a crack at it by rating the top commercials of the year by looking at their view counts on YouTube, but Auto Express took a more democratic approach by putting the decision to a vote. Just after Thanksgiving, Auto Express came up with a list of the 20 popular commercials, and it tasked its readers with choosing the winner for the best car ad of all time. The winner? Honda's 2003 commercial for its then-new European Accord titled "The Cog."
While the ad never aired in the US, most car people have surely seen the impressive Rube Goldberg-style spot. In fact, the only commercial on this list that we saw on US television was the Volkswagen ad "The Force," but many of the others have become viral videos, including transforming and dancing Citroën C4. Of the 19 other commercials that vied for the title of best ad of all time, only the Ford Puma "Steve McQueen" commercial gave Honda a run for its advertising money.
