I have a 1962 Ford Galaxie 500. I restored it over the winter. It has a 352 Big Block(not original), with a 2 barrel carburetor and a Cruise-O-Matic transmission. Power steering and power brakes. It's column shifted. She runs and drives beautifully and last year she was my daily driver. All the lights, tail lights, and blinkers work.

The brakes are good, tires are REALLY good(about 80-85% tread left). The tranny shifts great. No leaks from anywhere, but the power steering pump is a little whiny. I'm slowly building ambition to put a new one on it. The paint is fresh, but it's not great. It's good, but there is some slight orange peel.

All of the rust has been cut out and I welded in new sheet metal. The wheels and bumpers have been powder coated. The seats were reupholstered less than 3 months ago. The dash was repainted. New carpet. New headliner. The door panels are the ones I got with the car, they're not original. The armrests are still the original brown. The steering wheel is obviously not original, it's a classic Grant wheel I believe. It just makes it feel like you're driving an old hot rod. I disconnected the horn because I absolutely hate the sound of them.

The grille and rear fascia trim were painted black, it gives the car a really nice and aggressive look. I do have the rest of the trim the goes on the wheel wells and on the bottoms behind the rear wheels. All the gauges, dummy lights, air/heat, defrost, wipers, emergency brake, and dome light(I unpugged that though) work. I also bought a new USA-230 Radio for it and a kick panel kit that has speakers in them.

I also pulled the rear window to put a new seal in it and tint the window(5%) and the side windows have 35% tint on them.

There are exactly 4 things this car doesn't have to make it considered completely restored.

1. A trim piece that goes inside behind the rear seat at the bottom of the headliner. All it does is cover the bottom of the headliner where it attaches to the hooks.

2. A trim piece that goes along the bottom sides of the front seat to hide a couple brackets.

3. I don't have a lens for the dome light. It's just the bulb.

4. There is no gas pedal. Just the arm for it. It honestly never bothered me, but I know it should have lol

I am negotiable on the price. It's not firm at all. I am also interested in trading for a Harley, preferably a softail or bagger. I would also do a half trade/half cash. Let me know what you got or any questions. I'm pretty sure I included everything. I DO have a clean title for it. Feel free to call, text, or email day or night. Thanks for looking!

Plethora of 2015 Ford F-150 customs runs the gamut at SEMA

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Of Ford's customized trucks, two feature the name of famous Ford racers.
Of all the OEMs making appearances at the 2014 SEMA show, Ford owns arguably the most significant group of vehicles, thanks to its new 2015 F-150 and Mustang. While you can look for our Mustang coverage soon, we've managed to sneak out and get snaps of some of a few of the F-150s on display at the company's sprawling, 20,000-square-foot display (look for even more aftermarket F-150 goodness in the coming days).

Reborn Ford Escort could make its way to Europe

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

The Ford Escort concept just unveiled at the Shanghai Motor Show was created with the Chinese market in mind, but it's got people talking all over the world. Not purely fancy, the point of the Escort concept was to give Chinese buyers a preview of what they could expect to see in a Ford showroom in the near future. If Ford wasn't seriously considering the new Escort for other countries, a report in Auto Express indicates that the concept's reception has changed all that.
No less than the incoming chairman of Ford UK said "it could work in other places," bolstering the comments of "a senior Ford insider" who said the question of bringing the car to Europe to slot in underneath the Focus had been raised. That's a long way from anything of the kind happening, which would require Ford to figure out how to sell it for the right price and not torpedo the company reputation among Euro buyers. In any case, we'd be as intrigued as anyone if an Escort resurrection created the next 'who knew?' market segment of few-frills transportation offered by non-Asian carmakers.
