This 1965 Galaxie 500xl convertible was owned by my father and I have recently inherited it. Unfortunately I have no room to store the car and I have too many other toys to justify keeping it.
This car runs great and has the bucket seat interior with electric windows and a new fully functioning top. It was restored a few years back and has a nice matte black paint job, its a very solid car with no rust holes and only minor surface rust present under the gas tank. The motor is a later model (non roller) 302 with Edelbrock intake and 600 4 barrel carburetor. The transmission is a c-4, 3 speed auto, floor shift. It has an HEI distributor with added chrome valve covers and breather. The car has dual exhaust and the lake pipes are non-functioning.
There are 2 small rock dings in the front window, all other glass is in good shape, the trim and chrome is in good shape for its age with new smoothies and bfg radials. The drum brakes have been gone through and a dual line master cylinder was added for safety. The jambs of the car were left original and the arm rests are the original white color, all other interior pieces are blue and black and show moderate wear. The dash has some cracks but is completely stock, the aftermarket tac, oil pressure, temp and volts gauges are bolt on, as well as the under dash jvc radio. I have the original electric control for the windows, it needs new contacts, currently we are running a temporary control that does not fit the console. There is also a problem with the control switch for the electric top, but it does go up and down smoothly.
Please call if you have questions, 816.916.4253. I will also have the car for sale locally, so if you want to make an offer to "buy it now" I will consider it here in town. We will assist with transportation if need be and have shipped cars overseas, so there should not be any issues as long as communication is maintained and a reasonable time frame is met after purchase. A $500 deposit is required with 48 hours of winning bid. If you choose to use paypal, the fees will need to be covered.
If you want to make a long distance drive home, I don't see any reason why the car would not make it, before my dad passed, we took a long 6 hour road trip together with no problems. If the car sells and you choose to go cross country, you will do this at your own risk as the car is 48 years old. I add this because there is always someone asking if it will "make the trip"
Thanks for looking and happy bidding!

Daimler consulting with Ford about 3-cylinder engines
Mon, 27 May 2013Soon enough, Ford will offer its 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine under the hood of the Fiesta here in the United States, building on the success of the small powerplant overseas. In fact, this success has caused other automakers to take notice, and according to Automotive News Europe, Daimler is now talking to Ford about this engine for use in its own products.
In other markets, Ford offers the 1.0-liter mill under the hood of the Focus (we had the chance to sample this package on our home turf), as well as the B-Max MPV. For this new collaboration, Daimler would use the turbo-three in the next-generation Smart ForTwo, as well as the Renault Twingo, which the German automaker will be collaborating on as part of its alliance with Renault-Nissan. Speaking to AN, a Mercedes-Benz engineer called the 1.0-liter mill an "interesting and impressive engine."
In exchange for details about the EcoBoost inline-three, Daimler will supply Ford with information regarding its Euro6 stratified lean-burn gasoline engine, which is found in the new E-Class sedan.
GMC Hummer EV SUV first drive, RIP Camaro, Ferrari Roma Spider | Autoblog Podcast # 773
Fri, Mar 24 2023In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by News Editor Joel Stocksdale. They start off with one of the week's biggest official news items — the impending death of the sixth-gen Chevrolet Camaro. On the subject of powerful American cars, they pivot to a teaser from Stellantis execs that there are big things ahead for its Dodge Charger SRT Daytona Banshee concept. From there, they look at Ferrari's new topless Roma and then get into Ford's multi-billion-dollar electric vehicle pivot. Speaking of expensive EVs, Joel just got back from driving the new GMC Hummer SUV. He also had the new F-150 Lightning Pro in his driveway, and that's followed by Greg's update on Autoblog's long-term Toyota Sienna. Autoblog Podcast # 773 Get The Podcast Apple Podcasts – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast in iTunes Spotify – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast on Spotify RSS – Add the Autoblog Podcast feed to your RSS aggregator MP3 – Download the MP3 directly Rundown News Chevrolet Camaro production will officially end after 2024 model year Dodge CEO teases more to come from Charger SRT Daytona Banshee Ferrari Roma Spider returns a front-engined soft top to the lineup Ford Model e losing billions as it says EV unit should be seen as startup What we're driving Ford F-150 Lightning Pro 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV 2023 Toyota Sienna Platinum AWD Feedback Email – Podcast@Autoblog.com Review the show on Apple Podcasts Autoblog is now live on your smart speakers and voice assistants with the audio Autoblog Daily Digest.

Ford hybrids getting update to improve fuel economy
Tue, 16 Jul 2013Ford has announced that it is introducing "calibration updates designed to improve on-road fuel economy for owners of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid."
We can speculate that these changes are at least due in part to lawsuits over mileage claims of hybrid vehicles. The automaker is enhancing 2013 models starting in August by raising their electric cruising speed to 85 miles per hour from 62 mph, optimizing the use of active grille shutters and the climate control system, shortening the engine warm-up period by 50 percent and reducing electric fan speed to minimize the fan's energy consumption.
It bears mentioning that Ford is doing pretty well in the US electrified vehicle market this year. The company claims to have grown its share in the segment by 12 points to 16 percent while taking a high number of Toyota Prius trade-ins in the process. Conversely, Toyota has experienced a five-percent drop in new-Prius sales over the same period. Additionally, Ford states that it has increased its share of the US vehicle market by one percent this year, more than any full-line automaker.
