 1964 Ford  Galaxie 500 XL convertible.

This Galaxie XL is a very strong example of mid-60s muscle. She has a professionally rebuilt, bored out, 390 engine with 2 x 4 barrel Edelbrock carburetor's. She also has a rebuilt top loader four speed transmission. She runs beautifully, but still needs some additional work. The work needed would be a new paint job, some wiring attention and a few minor repairs to make her perfect. The wiring would deal with the accessories and the dash lights. I would consider this car to be a class II Galaxie. The low reserve price reflects the work needed. Class I 1964 Galaxies sell for $25,000. My reserve is much lower.

Accessories:

Correct bumper guards, both front and rear, working spotlight, Fomoco AM/FM radio, cast iron Ford “shorty” headers, Rotunda tachometer, lake pipes, padded dash, deep dish wire wheel covers, seat belts, and 1964 license plates registered to the car.All these accessories are correct to this year Ford. I also have, but have not installed, a rear deck radio antenna, an emergency brake warning light.

History:

I built this car less than two years ago. The body came from Oklahoma and is now in California so there isn’t a spot of rust. I have a complete pictorial and video history of the build. The build included new tires, brakes, clutch, shocks, exhaust system, and rear leaf springs. She also has new carpet, door panels and a new top with a glass rear window. There is less than 3000 miles since the build.

Summary:

I lost my lease on the garage I used to store this car and work on it. If you’re looking for a car that you can cruise and enjoy now and continue to tinker with, this is your car. Oh yea, one other thing ; SHE’S FAST!

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.

Ford reports 58% drop in Q2 profits on European losses

Wed, 25 Jul 2012



Ford Motor Company announced Wednesday that it has posted a $1 billion profit for the second quarter of 2012. That sounds like good news for the Blue Oval, until you take into account that Ford posted a $2.4 billion profit for Q2 a year ago. That is a substantial 58 percent loss.
Ford also posted $465 million in international losses, with $404 million of those losses coming directly from Europe. The automaker also increased its European loss projections to $1 billion for 2012, due in large part to the economic crisis overseas, which has resulted in increased unemployment and decreased consumer confidence.

2015 Ford Focus ST zooming toward Goodwood reveal [w/video]

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

Ford has quite a party ready for the Goodwood Festival of Speed starting on June 27. Not only is the 2015 Mustang going to be driving in front of the European public for the first time, the Blue Oval is also unveiling its 2015 refresh for the Focus ST.
Official details about the latest Focus hot hatch are practically nonexistent at this point. Ford's teaser image shows narrower headlights, and the company says that the ST also benefits from the technical and quality improvements from the refreshed standard model, which likely means an even more Aston-Martin-like grille. However, any improvements for the power or handling are a mystery for now.
Ford will even give visitors to the festival the chance to drive the new ST - at least virtually. Gran Turismo 6 kiosks will be on hand with the hot hatch loaded up to race the Goodwood Hill Climb. There will also be real-time races between former Stig Ben Collins in the real ST challenging a player up the hill in the game.
