You are bidding on a 1962 ford galaxie 500 2 door hardtop. Originally a white on red car with a 352 and cruisomatic. Car was built in Los Angeles, CA. From what I've been told from the previous owner, it now has a later 390 ford big block with a cruisomatic trans. Motor runs great and trans shifts good. Chrome headers, 2 1/2" exhaust with flowmasters. Interior is very nice. The car needs minor body work and paint, the floors are solid. The only signs of notable rust are in a lip under the front roof and in two lower parts of the passenger rear wheel well and front driver's door, also under the chrome on the deck lid. No major rust issues. Looks like the roof has been repaired in places, but seems very solid to me. The front end will need to be looked at. The car drives straight, but there is a clunk when turning (possibly control arm bushings and a rag joint). The heater is not hooked up, but the fan works great. All electrical in very good shape. Not much to get this thing sturdy for the road. The car needs attention from someone who has time to finish it. I have some of the chrome trim off of the car right now and in total I have 98 percent of all the chrome for it that will go with the car. The car has new brakes and axle seals. I also have a new fuel pump for the car. Any questions, please feel free to contact me . 949 six zero 7- eight 6 seven 0. I reserve the right to end this auction at any time. Winning bidder is fully responsible for payment and shipping arrangements. A $500 non-refundable deposit is due within 48 hours of the final bid date. A cleared cashier's check or cash is my only acceptance of payment from the winning bidder. Good luck and happy bidding!

Autoblog Podcast #317:
Man chases down truck thief and steams it all on Facebook
Thu, Oct 13 2016A Washington man chased down a truck stolen from his family's dealership last Saturday and livestreamed the event on Facebook. According to KOMO, a 2005 Ford F-250 was stolen from Sunrise Auto Sales in Eatonville, Washington on the morning of October 8. Aaron Babcock, who co-owns the small dealership with his father David, told reporters that after reviewing surveillance footage, he later spotted the truck while riding his motorcycle on Webster Road East. "I watched my cameras and found the video of a man lurking around and ending up taking off with my truck," Babcock told KOMO. "Cops came and made a case. Three hours later I was on my motorcycle in Graham, and they drove by me oncoming. It still had dealer stickers on it. It said diesel on the window and it had our dealer plate on it. It stuck out like a sore thumb. It was really easy to see." Once he spotted the stolen Super Duty, he wheeled his bike around and gave chase. He attempted to call 911, but was unsure if the dispatcher heard him due to noise from the wind and the bike's engine. So he fired up Facebook live and started streaming his chase, giving running commentary and updating his location as he chased the slow-moving truck. "I wasn't going to let him get away. I was going to try follow him down. I had no idea what to do," Babcock said. "Nobody could hear me on the phone so I just figured the first thing to do is pull up Facebook live." Babcock's Facebook friends pitched in by calling 911 to report the chase and even jumping in their own cars to follow the truck. At one point, he pulled alongside the truck and recognized both men in the cab. The driver was the man seen lurking around the dealer lot in the surveillance video, and the passenger was an old friend of Babcock's. "I know who you are!" he shouted at them, but the hunkered down and kept driving. Eventually, Babcock lost cell phone signal and the livestream ended. Eatonville police, who by this point were well aware of the incident, caught up with the truck in the 8400 block of 356th Street South in Eatonville. The driver was arrested and the passenger was questioned and released. Both denied stealing the vehicle or knowing it was stolen. Two sets of keys from Sunrise Auto Sales and a stolen credit card were also recovered from the truck. Related Video
PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.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.
