This Auction is for a 1961 Ford Galaxie 500 2 door Club Victoria that was assembled in Norfolk, VA. The Odometer shows 51,900 miles and I believe it to be accurate. This car runs & drives but WILL need a restoration to be dependable & safe. The Glass is all original with no cracks, interior code is Red Shimmer & in good condition. The original body color is Raven Black, the body is in good condition with minor bubbling around the rear wheel well area. the Trunk pan has been replaced 20 years ago, floor pan, doors, fenders, hood, frame, trunk lid are ALL SOLID....body looks to have been repainted along time ago and will need to be professionally redone for show quality. This Z code Galaxie 500 retains the 390 HP (375hp) with all the original trimmings.... Carb, Cast Headers, Aluminum intake, 15' wheels, Heavy duty brakes & bigger fuel lines, Valve covers & Air cleaner. The transmission is a 3 speed Manual shift on the column which works fine. This is a RARE car that also retains the Dealer Optional Aluminum TRI POWER setup to give this old HOT ROD 401HP.... that has NEVER been bolted on an engine. These cars were built to race in 1961 and would run the 1/4 mile around 13 sec.!!

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern

Fri, 09 Dec 2011

Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.

Save your information in your Pizza Profile and it'll be sent to your house without even the push of a button, which strikes us as awesome a use of technology as we've ever seen.

2015 Ford Mustang Convertible to recreate Empire State Building stunt

Tue, 25 Mar 2014

It would have been all too easy to miss the auto show debut of the 2015 Ford Mustang convertible. It was, after all, unveiled alongside its fixed-roof counterpart at the Detroit Auto Show this past January, lumping coupe and cabrio into one debut. But Ford is evidently still intent on making its new droptop stand out. The top of the Empire State Building ought to do the trick.
Automotive history buffs may recall that, 50 years ago, Ford unveiled its first Mustang convertible atop what was then the tallest building in the world, that Art Deco icon of the New York skyline. Half a century later, Ford is recreating the feat and bringing the new topless Mustang to the same observation deck on the building's 86th floor.
Getting it up there, of course, will be no easy task. While they'd usually airlift the vehicle onto the roof or lift it by crane, the spire protruding from atop the building makes approaching the narrow observation deck too dangerous, and no mobile crane can telescope the thousand-plus feet it would take to get the pony car up there.
