***THERE IS A SLIDESHOW WITH MORE DETAILED PICS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS AUCTION***

1963 Ford Galaxie 500 2dr Fastback. Was originally a 352 CID automatic car in Raven Black with Red Vinyl Interior with 3.00 rear end gears.

***IT DOES NOT HAVE AN ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION***

The car needs total restoration but would be beautiful when finished. I have included some pics of build ideas on this car in the pics.

The car needs alot of body work. It needs the passenger side front fender replaced. It needs a long rear passenger quarter panel put in (you can buy these online). It needs a new drivers door put on. I have a replacement door that is straight but needs a couple holes filled on the bottom weatherstrip channels. Try to find a new one or patch this one up. I also have two front fenders and a front bumper valence from the previous owner. The fenders are rusted out on top and bottom but the valence is good and straight. I would try to find a new passenger fender and then use the trim off of these.

The hood and trunk lid are good and straight and not rusted out.

All of the glass is good except for the windshield.

The frame is solid and the wheel wells look good with no holes. No rust in the engine bay either.

The great thing about this car is that the floor pans are pretty solid compared to most cars of this age. The only holes are in the very front so it will need two short front floor pans put in like they all do but that is it. The pans under the seat and behind them are solid. Also, the rear trunk pan where the rear damage is on the passenger side needs to be hammered straight a bit but there is no rust in the trunk pan.

All the interior and interior trim is there with the car. Everything just needs to be recovered, new headlinder, carpet, etc. The dash is all there but it needs a new pad.

The stainless window trim is all there and straight. Just needs to be polished. Most of the side trim is there on the car and in the box.

The bumpers and bumper brackets are good and straight. The bumpers just need to be rechromed.

All of the headlights and buckets are there in the box.

A power brake booster from the previous owner is included with the car but I have no idea if it will work with this car. See the pics.

It has a few old Cougar and Thunderbird hubcaps on it that could be sold off and some extra tail light trim.

There is no title. Alabama law does not require a title for vehicles 35+ years old. Car will come with a bill of sale.

Inside the Ford GT's interior

Mon, Mar 23 2015

Ford has crafted a simple yet high-tech interior for the GT supercar, which has been on display at auto shows around the world this year. The instrument panel has a two-tier design with a floating wing. There are soft-touch materials and carbon fiber, which also is used for the passenger cell. Still, the GT's interior has been shrouded in more mystery than the rest of the car. To cast some light on the GT's cabin, we caught up with Ford design vice president Moray Callum, who explained the ins and outs of the future icon's interior. Put simply, "there's not a lot of excess materials," Callum said. But what is there is pretty cool. In case you haven't heard, Ford plans to launch the GT in 2016. It will run a mid-mounted twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox and make extensive use of carbon fiber for the body structure. Related Video:

Ford Mustang hit by Moore' Oklahoma's EF5 tornado lives to do another burnout

Fri, 07 Jun 2013

Oklahoma recently saw the destructive power of an EF5 tornado, but in the aftermath of the devastation, we've also been witness to the incredible resilience of the human spirit. Moore, OK resident Jack Haden survived the storm but found that his 2003 Ford Mustang wasn't quite as lucky. As you can see in the image above, the tornado's 200+ mph winds did quite a number on the car, but while most people would have likely called their insurance company and scrapped the car, Haden had other plans.
After finding the car and seeing that its V6 still fired up, Haden spent a couple hours getting the car, um... roadworthy(?)... by removing the doors and front clip, cutting off the roof and putting on some new wheels and tires. He noticed that driving it around brought some comic relief to an area that needed a reason to laugh and smile. Check out the KSBI TV news report video below showing before and after pictures of the tough 'Stang, as well as a video showing the newly lightweight coupe doing a smoky burnout.
