This auction is for a very rough and rusty but complete 1962 Ford Galaxie 500 2 door hardtop. It is a Z-code car with the 390/4V Thunderbird motor. Georgia will not issue titles for 1962 and older vehicles, but I have a current Georgia registration in my name. This, along with a bill of sale will allow you to get a title in most title states (including Florida). The car has been off the road since 1977, and has been sitting in the back of a friend's garden for the last 18-20 years. Odometer reads 66572, but I don't know if this is the actual mileage or not. It has factory A/C, power steering and brakes, and automatic transmission. There is heavy rust in the trunk floor, the passenger floor and the radiator core support.. A friend who specializes in Fords looked at it for me and said he thinks the motor has never been apart due to the factory lock tabs on the exhaust manifold bolts. The trim that is missing from the doors and the hood lip moulding are included and are inside the trunk. The car to me appears to be too far gone to restore to original, but would make an excellent parts car or maybe even a rat rod. The previous owner had lost the keys, so I had to open the trunk by going through the back seat area. I removed the lock and it is included with the car. The brakes were stuck, so I have removed the brake hardware from each wheel, and the drums will all need to be replaced. None of the side windows will roll down. Once again, THIS CAR IS SOLD AS A ROUGH PROJECT CAR OR AS A PARTS CAR. It will need to be hauled on a trailer or a rollback due to the condition of the tires and because it has been sitting up for so long. It does roll very easily now for loading. A deposit of $300 is required within 48 hours of auction end, and balance due within 7 days. I will accept a check for balance, but will require 2 weeks to clear before car can be picked up. I may be able to deliver the car up to 250 miles from Statenville, GA 31648 for $2.10/loaded mile. If you want an exact delivery cost, send an exact, complete delivery address. Please email any questions or if you would like to see specific photos of any part of the car. Thanks for looking and for bidding!!!

Ford announces four recalls, 1.4M vehicles affected

Thu, 29 May 2014

Ford is taking a bit of the spotlight away from General Motors, announcing a major group of recall campaigns, covering a total of 1.4 million vehicles built between 2006 and 2013.
Let's start with the big one, which covers the Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner and, according to The Detroit News, Ford-built Mazda Tribute CUVs. 915,216 vehicles are covered, all of which were built in model years 2008 to 2011. 736,000 vehicles are in the US, while Canada then Mexico make up the vast majority of the remainder. The problem is due to an issue with the torque sensor in the steering column, which could lead to sudden power steering failure. Manual steering would still be available, though.
"Dealers will perform one of three service fixes, depending upon what diagnostic codes are shown when the vehicle is taken to the dealer," Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker wrote to Autoblog in an email. "They will either update software for the power steering control module and the instrument cluster module; replace the torque sensor; or replace the steering column, which includes upgraded power steering control module software."

Ford to kick off F-150 campaign during College Football Playoff

Tue, Dec 30 2014

The long-awaited inaugural College Football Playoff will feature the nation's best college teams, with the Oregon Ducks taking on the Florida State Seminoles, and Alabama Crimson Tide facing some team from Ohio. On top of that, though, it'll also see the launch of the very first advertising campaign for the 2015 Ford F-150. Viewers from across the country will see a trio of ads featuring the all-aluminum truck, with two half-minute spots and a full 60-second commercial, all voiced by Denis Leary, touting the F-150's feature set and towing capacity, but passing on mentioning the new truck's class-leading fuel economy. That, Automotive News reports, isn't a miscue by Ford. The company simply didn't have enough time between the EPA's fuel economy announcement and the 2014-2015 Bowl Season to prepare a spot. Expect plenty on the F-150's fuel efficiency in future spots. Interestingly, though, AN is reporting future F-150 advertising won't include a Super Bowl appearance. Ford has made the decision to focus its new truck ads on college football rather than during the NFL championship. "From our point of view, there's no bigger stage to debut the F-150 creative than the College Football Playoff," Keith Koeppen, Ford's US marketing communications boss, told AN. "It's so closely aligned with the passions of our customer." It's those passions that are pushing Ford to kick off its ad campaign for a new truck so much earlier. Speaking to AN, Doug Scott, Ford's truck marketing manager, said that the automaker typically doesn't begin ad campaigns until its dealers have at least a fifty-fifty mix of old and new models, but that it's pushing the 2015 F-150's ads to fit with the college football playoffs. While Ford's focus is on the two semifinal playoff games on New Year's Day and the National Championship Game on January 12, the ads will actually air for the first time on New Year's Eve, when the TCU Horned Frogs face off against the Ole Miss Rebels in the Peach Bowl. The three spots will also be shown during other bowl games, as well.

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
