1965 Ford Galaxie 500 2 door hardtop. Barn find. Project. Overdrive. Solid straight complete original car. This is a good project to start on. Not a piece of junk. Not a parts car. Six cylinder three speed manual with overdrive. One family owned since new. Known history since new. Sitting in shed since 1988. 130k actual miles. Clear title Plain-jane car. Manual steering & brakes. Heater. Clock. Remote mirror. Crank windows. Radio maybe dealer added? Straight body lines. Doors open & close very nice. Body gaps good. Almost all chrome & emblems are here and in good shape. Glass good. Body, floors pans, doors, door & window openings in good shape. Quarter panels can be saved but need some work. Minor dent in roof, trunk lid,passenger side. Battery tray rusted but inner fender is good. Bottom of frame rails rusted out under door openings-common on these cars. Be sure you understand this. Not shown in photos. Ask questions before you bid. Original paint-very faded -now surface rusted. Interior original & complete. Better than expected condition. Bench seat mechanism works. Dash pad & headliner need replaced. To be clear- this is a restoration project but a good one to start on. I'm telling you about stuff the others never mention. Does not run – cannot be driven. Oil pan is off. 240 six cylinder engine likely has major problems. Rolls-3 speed manual overdrive transmission and differential appear to be OK.“What-you-see-is-what-you-get” Removed parts are in the trunk. Spare wheel & jack included probably original. Ask questions before bidding. If your feedback score is less than 10, contact me before you bid. You are welcome to come inspect it before you bid. Buyer responsible to get it home. I can load it.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

First 500 European Ford Mustangs reserved in 30 seconds [w/video]

Thu, 29 May 2014

We're pretty sure that any initial concerns Ford had about selling the redesigned Mustang in Europe have been lessened considerably, after the first 500 Euro-spec 2015 Mustangs were been reserved in just 30 seconds. Moreover, 9,300 people attempted to snag one of the coveted orders for the all-new muscle car. Yes, Mustang, you should do quite well across the pond.
The registration event was held during the UEFA (pronounced yu-eh-fa) Champions League Final between Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid.
"We knew there was huge excitement building for the new Ford Mustang coming to Europe, but the response during the UCL Final was overwhelming," said Roelant de Waard, VP of marketing, sales and service for Ford's European outfit. "It was a truly special way to kick off the Ford Mustang era in Europe."

2015 Ford Expedition

Mon, 21 Jul 2014

While the tide of bigger-is-better SUVs has been in recession since, well, the recession, fullsize utes are still very much with us. Conservative creatures that have been loathe to evolve, fullsize SUVs nonetheless remain enduringly popular among large families, livery customers, and anyone with lots of friends, relatives, and toys to tug around. With respect to Toyota and Nissan, the only players that really matter in the segment are the new-for-2015 Chevrolet Tahoe/Suburban, the GMC Yukon/Yukon XL, and this truck: the Ford Expedition, the latest evolution of which we just drove for the first time at a press preview in West Virginia.
Unlike the General Motors utilities, the standard Expedition and the long-wheelbase Expedition EL are not all-new, but rather are heavily refreshed versions of the same basic truck Ford started selling way back in 2007. The front fascia is where most of the exterior update happens for 2015, with a new three-bar grille design, halogen projector headlamps, and new bumper design with available LED foglamps. Despite all the new bits, the facelift breaks exactly zero ground in terms of design; in fact, it already looks dated, and will only look older once the macho 2015 F-150 bows later this year. Even less has changed out back, where the tailgate gets a wide chrome band spanning the taillamps and a new chrome exhaust tip. Other exterior changes are generally limited to colors and an all-new wheel lineup that includes a gleaming set of six-spoke 22-inch polished wheels on high-end models.
Speaking of high-end models, a new Platinum trim is positioned above the cowboy-spec King Ranch model for 2015. Both the Platinum and King Ranch get their own color combos and exterior trim finishes (satin metal for the Platinum, chrome everywhere and ginormous badges for the King Ranch) and posh, leather-lined interiors with their own aesthetic. The Expedition family also now includes a price-leading XL model, as well as XLT and Limited grades.
