1964 Ford Galaxie Fastback Drag Car, this car is not street legal so please don't ask.

Engine: 460 bored .30 with D0VE heads ported and polished
Transmission: 4500 Stall Converter ,C6 with shift kit, B&M shifter
Rearend: 9 inch 5:00 gears with mini spool
Front suspension: Stock but I put new springs from a 1964 Ford air conditioner station wagon to support the big block
Rear suspension: It has the traction bar setup from Crites Restoration (like what the NHRA used back in the day) and the shocks are mounted for coil over springs. The leaf springs are still there because the coil overs have not been mounted yet. It would be very easy to finish.
Body: This is an older paint job and the hood would need to be painted again as the clear started to peel off. Lexan glass has been installed everywhere except for the windsheild which is stock. The front bumper is a fiberglass one purchased from Crites Restoration while the rear bumper is original. Hood, deck lid, and all the trim pieces are original as well.
Time: The car runs 7.50's in the 1/8 mile.
 

I won a lot of races with this car including 5 races the first year I ran it and won the points championship and the Gold Card Shootout at my home track.

It does need some work, the passenger side axle broke the last time it was ran but I do have the replacement axle that goes with the car and would be simple to fix. The headers are rusted and would need to be replaced. Everything else is in working order and the car starts up and runs fine. I would replace the Lexan in the car as it is 10 years old and looks cloudy, (maybe someone knows how to buff this out but I was unable to do so). Look at the pictures and ask any questions as I am sure I left something out.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.

Ford F-150 Raptor gets EcoBoost V6, new chassis and aluminum body [w/videos]

Mon, Jan 12 2015

The Autoblog staff universally loves the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, and the truck's about to get even better. Coming in the fall of 2016 (we'd assume as a 2017 model), the next off-road-ready pickup from Ford will boast an all-new, purpose-built, high-strength steel frame and a lightweight aluminum body that saves more than 500 pounds when compared to the current Raptor. It's six inches wider overall than the regular 2015 F-150, which both makes it look awfully mean but also aids in stability when driving fast off the road, and new LED lighting elements make it stand out when the sun goes dim. Under the Raptor's muscular hood will be a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine that will make more than the current 6.2-liter V8's 411 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque, though we don't have exact power figures for the next-gen Raptor quite yet. Also new will be a 10-speed automatic transmission, which will replace the current six-speed unit and ought to provide appropriate ratios for both rock crawling and high-speed desert trail running. Speaking of high-speed running, what makes the Raptor tick, perhaps more than any other single component, are its custom-designed suspension bits. Redesigned, larger Fox Racing Shocks with more suspension travel and all-new terrain management technology, combined with BFGoodrich All-Terrain KO2 tires, are the bits and pieces that allow for Baja-style off-roading. View 14 Photos The four-wheel-drive system in the next-gen Raptor will include a Terrain Management with settings for Normal driving, Street driving, Weather mode (for rain, snow or ice), Mud and Sand, Baja mode and Rock mode. According to Ford, the Raptor's new transfer case is designed to work as both a locking unit for crawling and a full-time unit for other off-road applications. A Torsen front differential will be optional. Basically, if all of this new stuff turns out to be as good in practice as it sounds in a press release, the next F-150 Raptor will only serve to separate Ford's off-road pickup even further from its half-hearted competitors.

Last 2014 Ford Shelby GT500 Convertible nets $500k for charity at Barrett-Jackson [w/video]

Tue, 13 Aug 2013

The last 2014 Ford Shelby GT500 Convertible was sold on Saturday at a Barrett-Jackson auction in Reno, Nevada, for $500,000. Ford donated the Mustang to be auctioned for charity, and all of the money is going to the Brain Injury Association of America.
Parnelli Jones, winner of the 1963 Indianapolis 500, was there on behalf of the BIAA with his son Page, who suffered a brain injury in a sprint car crash in 1994. The bidding increased quickly, reaching $500k in no time, spreading a bit more hope to people who live with brain injuries.
The winning bidder will be able to choose the GT500's exterior, interior and stripe colors, and is scheduled to receive the car, signed by Parnelli Jones in appreciation for the donation, by the end of 2013. Watch the video below to see the auction-block action.
