Up for sale today is an excellent Galaxie 500 2 door. This is the most popular year for the Galaxie. This car has been well taken car of by the owner. If you are looking for a hot rod you can drive and NOT fix daily this car is it. The car was repainted in 2009 using the original Arcadian blue. There are a few little scratches and the paint is considered driver quality. There was 13 hundred dollars worth of brake work done and they work perfect. Car has new suspension springs and shocks all the way around with upgraded coil overs in the rear. There are new rubber bushings in the Front sway Bar. It has a solid ford 9" Read End. The rear end in these cars is actually factory Tri-Link so there is no need to upgrade the suspension. They were a definite race contender back in the day. The radiator was pulled and cleaned with all new hoses installed. Newer drive belts are in excellent condition. This car was upgraded to a set of Hooker Headers with dual flowmaster exhaust. The engine is not a little 289 but the 6.4 liter 390 Big Block backed by a MX Hydromatic transmission. If you want to make easy big power this is where its at. At stock they are about 300 Horsepower and if you add a Cam, Intake and Carb you can be up over 400HP easy. This car sounds awesome. The previous owner installed a Cruise control system that is really cool and works awesome on a carbureted car. It has an am radio but I am getting ready to install and aftermarket amp with a wireless Bluetooth unit. You will be able to stream music right from your phone wire free. The best part about this car is that is an AC car. It is probably due for O-Rings as the Freon leaks down after a few years but I will recharge upon purchase which will last you the rest of the summer. I can service all the O-rings depending on the purchase price. This car is scheduled to have the windows tinted in 5% next week. The rims and tires are off a 2007 mustang and they have excellent tread and make this car ride super smooth. I do have the originals with the original hub-caps.
This car also has a Holley TBI fuel injection Kit that comes with it at $1000 value. The module and the Oxygen sensor are installed and the rest of the unit is still in the box.
You will not find a better running car for the value and you won't be buying a car you need to take home and fix.
Sale price is $15,500 or Best offer. Feel free to make and offer but no low ballers so don't bother to offer 10K. Thank You.

All deposits can be submitted Through Pay Pal. Final Payments will be done by bank transfer/cash only. Thank You

Warranty-There is no warranty and this vehicle will be sold as is.

Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.

Ford dealer loses Super Bowl bet, pays $300K to lucky customers [w/video]

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

A Missouri Ford dealership's Super Bowl weekend sale cost it big when the improbable happened. Hutcheson Ford ran a promotion from January 29 to February 1, called the Super Weekend Sale. The gist was, if any customer purchased a vehicle between those dates and either the opening or second-half kickoff of the big game was returned for a touchdown, the dealership would refund the purchase price.
In the dealership's defense, it seemed like a safe bet. According to the mathematicians, there was just a 2.5-percent chance of either half opening with a touchdown return. But that didn't stop Seattle's Percy Harvin from doing his part to ruin Denver's evening, returning the second-half kick for an 87-yard touchdown run. Twelve Hutcheson customers were eligible for refunds thanks to the return, with prices ranging from $10,000 to $55,000, according to Automotive News. The total amount shelled out by the dealership? $300,000.
"At least we're not like that furniture guy that lost $7 million," dealership marketing manager Kathleen Frazier told AN. We think it was a big success." The dealership did take out insurance to cover its losses, meaning the $300K won't come entirely from its pockets.
