 Our 1963 Ford Galaxie 500 4 door hard top with 260 V8 is an all original unrestored car.  It was manufactured in Dallas, TX and shipped to California.  We have the original owner's manual and are the second owners.  It has always been garaged and well maintained.  The title is clear and in my name. 

It has the original two tone Glacier Blue paint with the Viking Blue hard top.  The paint is in really good condition with some minor touchup paint applied to nicks by the first owner.  The body and original molding is in really nice, straight condition.  There's one small dent in this car near the grille on the passenger side and that's it. Original wheels and hub caps.  The wheels have some superficial rust on them. Michelin tires are about 75% or better remaining tread.

All the glass is in nice condition with no cracks or chips.  All of the window cranks work freely.  Original seatbelts.  The seats show a patina where the white sections are not pure white anymore.  Carpet is in great shape with no rot.  Headliner is original and in great shape.  Dome light cover is missing. Dash paint is weathered a bit as seen in photos but as with the rest of the car, I left it as is unrestored.

This car has Ford factory air conditioning and it works but is blowing cool air and not ice cold so it could probably use a recharge.  All of the dash instruments work including the original AM radio, heater, defroster, turn signals, horn, etc. All of the exterior lights work.

The 260 V8 runs very quiet with no ticking, tapping, knocking or faltering.  It starts right up and has no modifications to it. It gets exercised and serviced regularly and has not been sitting.  The water pump and AC belt were recently replaced.  The automatic transmission goes into gear with a positive bump as it should and does not slip, clunk or falter. Brakes work as they should without pulling to one side or the other.  We keep this in the garage and it doesn't leak any fluids.

These Galaxies are only truly original like this once.

Nelson Piquet and Nigel Mansell revisit bitter F1 rivalry in... Ford Fusion campaign?

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

Formula One World Champions Nelson Piquet and Nigel Mansell haven't been on good terms since the 1986 season, when Piquet joined Mansell at the Williams team and Piquet spent the year privately fuming about not being granted the status of number one driver. Things only got worse from there - even though Piquet won the title the following year with Williams, still partnered with Mansell, the fuming was a lot less private.
They're back together after a 25-year silence, in the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil to drive the new Ford Fusion. Called "Fusion Grand Prix," both men get the new Ford sedan, prepped to their liking - but still street legal, we assume - for a race to decide... well, who is faster behind the wheel of a Fusion.
There will be four episodes, with the first two having already aired. The third episode comes on January 29 and the race happens February 5. You'll find two video episodes and a press release below, but note - because it's a campaign for Ford Brazil, Piquet's dialogue in the vids isn't translated, so hit the Closed Captioning button to hear his side of the smack talking.

Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.

The history and future of the Ford Bronco

Tue, 17 Jun 2014



Some have suggested that the Bronco's demise was hastened by the fallout from the O.J. trial.
Twenty years ago today, ex-NFL linebacker Al "A.C." Cowlings drove his friend and onetime running back Orenthal James "O.J." Simpson on a parade lap of the Los Angeles highway system and onto an ignoble page of the history books. If you're in your late 20s or older, or a fastidious young student of 1990s American history, you're absolutely aware that Al and O.J.'s steed for the 'chase' was a white Ford Bronco. The white Ford Bronco, even.
