1963 Ford Galaxie 500 XL


The Ford Galaxie is a full size car that was offered by Ford from 1959 through 1974.  The name was used for the top models in Ford's full-size range from 1959 until 1961 with an emphasis on the appeal to the excitement surrounding the Space race.


This Glacier Blue 2 door sedan Galaxie 500 XL gives you all the styling of yesteryear with the conveniences of ice cold air conditioning, power brakes and power steering.   This car only has one repaint and an amazingly authentic engine compartment housing a 390 V8 powerhouse, bucket seats and center console.  Equipped the way a collector car should be.


The1963 Galaxie 500 XL gives you all the styling cues back when manufacturing cars was about style and character....from the taillights to the grill this Galaxie shouts Space Age.


Ford introduced a group of sporty cars along with its now-famous "Lively Ones" campaign. These models featured the bucket seats and console. The full-size line got a new bucket-seats-and-console known as the "Lively One,".


This 500XL is like it stepped out from a time machine.  It is finished in a pleasing light blue with a classic blue interior.  This example has been extremely well cared for and is ready to drive now, cruise to a car show or use as a daily driver.  The car really is as nice at the photographs show and really isn't anything to note that you will need to repair or do as she is ready to go.  Although, not a frame off restoration or a $100,000 show car but still no excuses need to be made when you pull up at a car show!... She does has a quality paint job and is extremely straight, has great brightwork and interior pieces.  Really a car worth adding to your collection. This car shows very original and very clean and will not disappoint in it looks or drivability.....Again fully equipped with ice cold AC, power steering and power brakes. 


Why not stand out from the crowd with this 390 powered V8 500 XL that gives you the best of stylish body cues, power and nostalgia at a fraction of the price of many 60’s cars of the years.  Take a moment and review the photographs and feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions at 818-398-1829.

Ford Explorer is America's new favorite police car

Mon, 24 Mar 2014

There is a new vehicle that you should keep an eye out for when you're going a little too fast down the Interstate. Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility was the bestselling new law enforcement model in the country last year, and signs show that won't be changing anytime soon.
Ford sold 14,086 Interceptor Utilities in 2013, up 140% from the year before, and 10,897 Interceptor Sedans, up 31%, according to USA Today. Overall, the brand's police sales were up 48 percent, and they were enough to boost the company's law enforcement vehicle market share by 9 points to nearly 50 percent.
The success comes just a few years after it made the decision to finally retire the long-serving Crown Victoria-based cruiser for two more modern vehicles. "We had to reinvent the category," said Chris Terry of Ford Communications to Autoblog. The automaker had to convince police departments that a unibody chassis without a V8 could perform better than a model that had been a law enforcement staple for years.

Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado, Toyota Tundra flunk IIHS headlight test

Tue, Oct 25 2016

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety put pickup truck headlights to the test and found that the majority of them were equipped with subpar units. The 2017 Honda Ridgeline was the only truck to earn a rating of "good." The large pickup truck test was comprised of the: 2016 to 2017 GMC Sierra, 2017 Nissan Titan, 2016 Ram 1500, 2016 to 2017 Chevrolet Silverado, 2016 to 2017 Ford F-150, and 2016 to 2017 Toyota Tundra. The Sierra's headlights earned a rating of "acceptable," the headlights found on the Titan and Ram 1500 were found to be "marginal," and the ones on the Silverado, F-150, and Tundra were rated as "poor." IIHS claims the F-150 was the most disappointing out of the large pickup trucks as both its halogen and optional LED headlights failed to provide adequate visibility during testing. The Ridgeline (which earned a "good rating"), is usually considered a midsize or small truck, though IIHS included it in the field of large pickups. The headlights on the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, 2016 GMC Canyon, 2016 Nissan Frontier, and 2016 to 2017 Toyota Tacoma, which made up the small pickup truck group, all earned a rating of "poor." The IIHS claimed the Colorado had the worst headlights of any truck that was tested, as the base vehicle's units were only able to illuminate up to 123 feet in front of the car. The Ridgeline's headlights, for reference, were able to illuminate up to 358 feet in front of the vehicle. To conduct its test, the IIHS utilizes a special tool to measure how far light is projected out of the headlights in different driving situations. The trucks' headlights were tested in a straight line and in corners, while vehicles with high-beam assist were given extra praise. The headlights on the pickup trucks also mimic the testing that was done on small SUVs and cars earlier this year. Next year, automakers will need to fit their vehicles with headlights that earn a rating of either good or acceptable to earn the IIHS Top Safety Pick+. Related Video:

How and why Ford is rolling out Vignale in Europe

Wed, 09 Oct 2013


We know that Ford is positioning the new, upscale Vignale brand in Europe to fill a niche market of customers who want a bit more luxury, a lot more service and the same reliability and dependability that a non-Vignale Ford offers. But so far, we've been in the dark regarding how the Blue Oval will sell Vignale vehicles, how many of them will be created, and what the new sub-brand has in store for the future.
Gaetano Thorel, Ford's European marketing head, recently was interviewed by Automotive News and shared details about Ford Vignale. Thorel says, "The Vignale trim line will be priced like an ST model but attract a completely different type of customer." Specifically, he says it will attract customers in the upper 15 percent of the price band who don't want a performance-oriented ST model. He adds that Vignale cars will be about 10 percent more expensive than Titanium-trim cars. About 500 of Ford's European dealers will sell Vignale Fords, Thorel says, "in areas that make sense." The automaker expects 10 percent of its European sales to be Vignale cars, which equates to about 5 percent of its global sales. When asked if there are any other Vignale models planned beyond the Mondeo, Thorel said, "There is nothing written in stone yet."
