1961 Ford Galaxie Sunliner convertible. This car has been in our family for years and was recently aired to me. I will do my best to describe it to the best of my knowledge. This is an original 352 V8 motor with 61668 miles, new oil pump, carburetor, oil pump shaft, intake and valve cover gaskets, A/C compressor, distributor and wires, brake booster and master cylinder. All fluids have been changed and cooling system has been serviced. It has new brakes as well. New power top motor and pump. that works great. The top is in really good shape and is very tight. the rear window is faded and hazy and will need replaced. The front end has tons of new parts and all bushings have been replaced along with a fresh alignment. it drives nice and straight. There is a small exhaust leak and a leak on the fitting where the power steering hose connects. These are not major repairs, just need attention. The car appears to be rust free inside and out. The paint was redone with a base clear about 15 years ago and still shines nice as it was always stored inside. There are a few minor scratches and chips but nothing major. The body is real straight with no dents or dings. The under carriage is very clean with new paint and new exhaust from the manifolds back. The A/C blows cold and has a new compressor. Keep in mind this was my fathers car and I can only describe what I Know and have documents on. I have put about 4k into it to get it ready for sale. Its not perfect but could be with minimal work. The interior seats have been redone as well and look really nice. Fuel gauge is inop and wipers don't seem to work but I haven't looked into this so it could be a fuse or something minor. It starts and runs good although I have only drove it a few times from shop to shop. This is a really nice car and gets tons of complements. Like I said not perfect but really nice and complete. Thanks for looking and feel free to message me with your questions or contact information and I promise to answer all the questions as honestly as I can. These are the original miles! Good luck bidding

Ford Explorer gets appearance pack for 2015

Sat, 14 Jun 2014

Remember when Ford launched the totally new Explorer in late 2010, and people were skeptical about how the now-crossover would fare, after ditching its traditional SUV roots? Well, we're several years in, and I think we can assuredly say that Ford made the right decision. Sales are better than ever (in fact, May was the current Explorer's best month yet), and the crossover is finding its way into the hands of a whole host of new Ford buyers.
A wholly refreshed Explorer is still forthcoming, but to keep its strong-selling crossover fresh, Ford is offering a host of improvements for the 2015 model year, including the attractive appearance package available on the XLT trim level, pictured above. Outside, the pack gets you goodies like 20-inch machined aluminum wheels, black bodyside cladding and roof rack rails. Contrasting Magnetic Metallic accents are found on the grille, mirror caps and liftgate appliqué, and there's an "Explorer" hood badge and body-colored door handles. Inside, there are new Miko suede inserts in the seats, and the package includes the automaker's Sync connectivity with MyFord Touch infotainment.
Elsewhere in the Explorer range, the Class III trailer tow pack is now standard on the Sport, base models get new 18-inch aluminum wheels, and there are three new colors on offer: Bronze Fire Metallic and Magnetic Metallic.

Top Gear pits Hennessey VelociRaptor vs. Range Rover Sport SVR

Fri, Jun 5 2015

As a television series, Top Gear is in limbo with an intent to return, but no hosts yet. However, it's magazine and website continue to bring us clips like this one. While the video might lack the show's charismatic hosts, this is an opportunity to see a drag race between a Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR with 550 horsepower and a Hennessey VelociRaptor with 623 hp. The duel between these two supercharged V8s definitely sounds great. Both rugged models start at the line growling angrily at each other like dogs ready for a fight. You have to watch the clip to see whether the more powerful VelociRaptor feeds on the SVR, though.

Is Tesla's next project an F-150 competitor? [w/poll]

Wed, 13 Nov 2013

What's the future look like for Tesla after it launches the Model X CUV and possibly a smaller, sub-Model S sedan? Would you believe a pickup truck? Yes, Tesla could be looking to use its EV know-how to take the fight to Ford and the F-150, based on comments made by company founder Elon Musk.
"If you're trying to replace the most gasoline miles driven, you have to look at what people are buying," Musk said during an impromptu Q&A session following a speech at Business Insider's Ignition conference. "[The F-150 is] the best selling car in America. If people are voting that's their car, then that's the car we have to deliver."
And while the idea of electric pickup may sound kind of absurd to some, Musk makes a very valid point - if Tesla's goal is to replace gas miles with electrical miles, it simply can't afford to ignore pickups.
