SELLER REMARKS

Full-sized '60s luxury muscle is red hot in the market right now, and cars like this 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 hardtop are the reason why. Built with equal amounts of performance and comfort, full-sized cars like this can cruise cross-country effortlessly, and still dispatch lesser machines in the stop light grand prix.

The door tag says this one came from the factory in two-tone Ivy Green over Sauterne Gold and today this car wears a beautiful coat of that correct color combination. Laying flat on the straight sheetmetal, those earthy tones highlight each other nicely and show crisp reflections. All of the correct trim and emblems are present, giving it an authentic look while chrome bumpers grace the front and rear of the long car. The doors, hood, and trunk fit very nicely and shut with the authority you would expect from a late model European luxury automobile. Classic Magnum 500 wheels provide some muscular appeal and are wrapped in fresh white wall tires.

Inside, light ivy gold "Crinkle" vinyl and light ivy gold "Olympia" pattern cloth covers the front and rear bench for a very handsome look. The car underwent a restoration in 2003, however, the workmanship is so good and the materials are accurate that it definitely passes for a well-maintained original. The seats are firm and comfortable, with no splits or tears in the covers, and the matching carpets are excellent. A two-tier dashboard puts the speedometer and AM radio up high where they're easy to see, while the auxiliary and air conditioning controls are in their own pod just below. But for the sake of preserving the factory dash, an AM/FM radio and three Sunpro gauges measuring oil pressure, voltage, and water temperature have been mounted below.

Power comes from a 289 cubic inch V8, which powers the relatively lightweight Galaxie with ease. Dressed in Ford Blue with a black block and heads, it looks very period appropriate. It runs beautifully, typically firing up with a single turn of the key and idling with a smooth hum that fits the cars luxury/performance mission perfectly. Note the power steering and power brakes, which make this car a pleasure to drive, as well as the 3-speed automatic transmission which clicks through the gears cleanly.

This Galaxie 500 is a clean, honest car that will give years of happy motoring; it offers identical performance and more comfort than a Mustang, all for a fraction of the price. This is your chance if you've been looking for some muscular performance, classic looks, and luxurious comfort. Call today!

Shelby GT500 laps N"urburgring in under 7:40?

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

A couple of weeks ago we brought you footage and official times of the new Chevy Camaro Z/28 lapping the Nürburgring. With a 7:37.47 lap time, the Z/28 emerged as the fastest muscle car ever to lap the circuit. But what was missing from that picture was how fast the king of all Mustangs, the Shelby GT500, could manage to lap the Nordschleife.
Ford never released any information or footage of the GT500 on the Nürburgring that we were aware of - that is, until the guys at SVTPerformance.com put in a request for Mustang videos. Among the clips they received was never-seen, in-car footage of the Shelby GT500 lapping the circuit. And boy did it hustle.
Although not quite official, the video seems to show the GT500 lapped the venerated German track in a touch under 7:40. That would make it a tick or two faster than the Camaro ZL1 - but what of the Z/28? By Chevy's quoted time, the Z/28 is still faster than the GT500, but SVTPerformance suggests GM may have fudged the numbers a bit and scrubbed half a second or so off their lap time.

Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with

Mon, 12 May 2014

Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.
