1963 1/2 Galaxie 500
Up for auction is a nice mostly original 1963 Galaxie 500 Fastback. The car retains its original C-code 289 that has been upgraded with an original Ford cast iron 4V intake and a Holley 4V carb, automatic transmission, and power steering. The engine has received a recent tune up. It also received a small dress up kit with Cobra valve covers and a chrome air breather, similar to those who remember the 289 hi-po engines. The power steering works but has a leak in one of the lines that I will be working on. It has glass pack dual exhaust. A brand new set of eagle ”torque thrust” style wheels were mounted on with tires that has great tread. The front wheels are 15x7 and the rears 15x8. The body is in very good shape for the year. It appears to have had one repaint of the original color. There are a few small places that are starting to bubble up but no rust through. Paint is average, a great daily driver but no show winner. The frame and floors are free of rust or rot. This is an exceptionally solid car for the year. The interior is all original from the headliner to the carpet. All of the lights work, headlights low and high beam, turn signals, brake lights etc. The temp gauge, windshield wipers, and the speedometer are also in working order. The blower motor, original AM radio, and fuel gauge are not working at this time. As far as running condition, it starts and runs great. The dual exhaust has a great vintage sound, the steering is tight and the brakes work well. This car will make a great daily driver or weekend cruise in car show candidate. Drive and enjoy it this summer. Please give me a call with any question. 765-376-3486 Thanks and Happy Bidding!!! |

Experts wonder if aluminum F-150 gives Ford a real advantage
Mon, 17 Mar 2014There's no doubt that Ford is taking a risk in producing the body of its upcoming new F-150 pickup truck in aluminum. What is up for debate, however, is whether aluminum was a wise risk to take in the first place. Wards Auto took the opportunity to poll some experts on the subject of aluminum versus steel in the automotive sector, with somewhat unsurprising results.
Richard Schultz, a project consultant at Ducker Worldwide, which bills itself as "a leading aluminum industry consultant (though they also deal in steels), suggests that the potential drawbacks to aluminum - higher costs, lower supply - aren't really impediments to the auto industry's increased acceptance of the lightweight metal.
Similarly, Randall Scheps, global automotive marketing director for Alcoa, a massive aluminum producer, counters claims that aluminum is less safe for vehicle occupants, suggesting that the use of aluminum can actually increase safety as it could potentially allow for larger vehicles with more crush space than steel.

Ford F-Series Super Duty earns Truck of Texas award
Wed, Oct 12 2016Texans love their pickup trucks, which you already knew. That means the Texas Auto Writers Association and its "Truck of Texas" award is a big deal. And the latest trophy goes to the 2017 Ford F-Series Super Duty. The pickup truck managed to snag TAWA's award at the 2016 Texas Truck Rodeo. The award marks the 13th time Ford's F-Series has been named the pickup king of the Lone Star State. Roughly 70 journalists converged outside at the Longhorn River Ranch, just outside of Austin, TX, for the 23rd annual Texas Truck Rodeo where a host of Ford's vehicles won awards. In addition to the F-Series Super Duty being named the "Truck of Texas," the 2017 Ford Super Duty won the Heavy Duty Pickup Truck award, while the 2017 Ford F-150 with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine won the Best Powertrain award. The journalists also awarded Ford for having the "Truck Line of Texas." Ford wasn't the only winner at the Texas Truck Rodeo, as Nissan brought home five awards, including one for the 2017 Titan in the fullsize pickup category and one for the Armada in the SUV segment. Ram also won a few accolades with its trucks. The 2017 Ram 1500 won for being the most luxurious pickup truck, while the 2017 Ram 2500 Power Wagon won the off-road pickup truck award. Last year, TAWA named the 2016 Nissan Titan XD the Truck of Texas, but Ford's all-new F-Series Super Duty managed to keep the Japanese automaker's full-size offering at bay. For the 2017 model, Ford placed aluminum body panels into the F-Series Super Duty's body, which not only shed weight, but also make the truck stronger. Scroll down to see the entire list of TAWA's winners from the 2016 Texas Truck Rodeo.
