1964 Ford Galaxie 500 XL Convertible -- X Code 352 Engine with floor mounted A/C (dealer option) 352 cruisomatic, P/S P/B Factory Red with a Red interior. The data plate numbers show that the original exterior color was white but has been repainted to exterior RED. Quite stunning actually. You see a lot of Red Galaxies with a black or white interior, but rarely red. Its a bold color combo perfect for convertibles. This is an original Galaxie XL with the bucket seat interior and not some bench seat version with an interior cobbled from a hardtop. I purchased this car in 2008. When I first got it, it was a good running car that just needed some minor mechanical work and cosmetics. It has its original X code 352 engine and transmission. Back then I repainted it to RED, chromed the bumpers replaced the top and did some upholstery work. I drove it to shows and in parades, and then I parked it inside for 5 years. (It is amazing how fast the years go by) Now my life has changed and I should pass it along for someone else to enjoy. It was a nice straight, totally rust free car before I painted it in 2009. It is still shiny but sitting under a cover in the garage it has developed some chips, scratches and a ding in the fender where something fell on it. The bumpers have some defects popping through the old re-chrome but they still look nice. The rear bottom quarter panels has some paint bubble but not no paint chips. The seats were reupholstered in the correct pattern at some point before I got it and remain soft and comfortable. The door panels are original and have some fading and cracking. The carpet is clean with no visible stains with no tears. The original padded dash is wonderful! It remains soft and without cracks. The top was replaced 4 years ago. It was covered for storage and has held up very well. It retains the correct glass rear window.
I recently pulled it from storage, changed the oil and fired it up. It started easily and now runs well. The power brake booster and master cylinder were bad so I put a new master and booster on it last week. Also the carb jets where cleaned. It drives well but before driving it any distance I would recommend new belts, hoses and all those little maintenance things that go bad from sitting. The bias ply tires were new 5 years ago and have accumulated maybe 500 miles. The odometer shows 54600 miles. It is tight and rattle free, but who knows how accurate that number might be. This is an honest car that remains in the condition that these cars were found and restored to 20+ years ago. It would be a fun car to enjoy as is or would be an excellent car to re-restore to modern standards. Last time I offered this car it came so close to hitting the reserve. Now I realize that it really must go so I have listed with no reserve. Legal Text: I make no warranties on this car, personal inspection can be arranged and if you desire pictures of anything just ask! If you have any other questions please ask! A $500 non-refundable deposit within 3 days is required. The deposit is payable through paypal however remaining balance due must be paid in cash or bank wire transfer. The certificate of title and the vehicle will not be released until full payment has been received & cashed. I have stored it for the last 5 years and I certainly do not want to continue storing it so the car should be removed within 30 days. I moved it outside of my garage (to get some room) and neither you nor I, want it to sit outside any longer than is absolutely necessary. I am being honest about offering this vehicle to you; I expect the same courtesy of having you be honest about buying it. Bids from buyers with less than 10 positive feedbacks will be summarily rejected. Your winning bid is a commitment to complete the purchase, NOT re-negotiate the deal in my driveway. The vehicle will stay with me until cleared, certified funds are in my possession. Thanks you for looking and reading this and Good Luck in your bidding. |

Xcar shows how to drive the Ford Model T
Wed, Jan 21 2015A couple of weeks ago Xcar posted a teaser review of the Ford Model T, a look at what the British duo would have been doing if they'd been doing their thing for 100 years. Now we have their complete, 12-minute take on the what might be, as they say, "arguably the most important car of the 20th century." Thankfully, instead of just a review, Xcar spends about half the time giving us a tour of history, from Ford's early days working for the Edison Illuminating Company to his racing days and founding of several car companies that either died or became other car companies after he left, like Cadillac. They also line up the pieces and the sales realities that led to Ford implementing – not creating, mind you – assembly-line production of the Tin Lizzie. And then they get into how crazy it is to drive, like how a driver needs two of the three pedals, the handbrake lever and a steering column stalk to get into high gear. Enjoy the video above on a 100-year-old car that is "unbelievably comfortable," "mildly terrifying" and ready to do just about anything.

8 cars we're most looking forward to driving in 2015
Mon, Jan 5 2015Now that 2014 is officially in the books, it's time to look ahead. And following our list of the cars we liked best last year, we're now setting our sights at the hot new metal that's coming our way in 2015. Some of these, we've already seen. And some are still set to debut during the 2015 auto show season. But these are the machines that keep us going – the things on the horizon that we're particularly stoked to drive, and drive hard. Jeep Renegade Not the Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Not the Ford Mustang GT350. Not the new John Cooper Works Mini. Nope, I'm looking forward to the adorable, trail-rated Jeep Renegade. And that's because I really, really, really like our long-term Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. I do not, however, care too much for the Cherokee's looks, and I really don't like its $38,059 price tag. The Renegade Trailhawk, meanwhile, promises much of the same rough-and-tumble character as its big brother, but at what we expect will be a more reasonable price (I'm personally wagering on the baby Jeep's off-road model starting at no more than $23,000). With a 2.4-liter four-cylinder and a nine-speed automatic, it should also be a bit easier to fill than the V6-powered Cherokee. Also, I can't help but love the way the Renegade looks. It's like someone took a Wrangler, squished it by 50 percent and then handed it off to George Clinton for a healthy dose of funk. The interior, with its bright, expressive trims and color schemes should also be a really nice place to spend some time. I'll be attending the Renegade's launch later this month, so I'll have a much shorter wait than my colleagues. Here's hoping the baby Jeep lives up to my expectations. – Brandon Turkus Associate Editor Mazda MX-5 Miata Here's an uncomfortable truth: I'd rather spend a day driving a properly sorted Mazda MX-5 Miata of any generation on a winding road than I would nearly any other vehicle, regardless of power, price or prestige. It's not just that I prize top-down driving and enjoy the Miata's small size because it gives me more road to play with. I just find there's more motoring joy to be had with high-fidelity handling and an uncorrupted car-to-driver communication loop than I do with face-distorting power or grip – let alone valet-stand gravitas. But perhaps most of all, I love Miatas because they can deliver that level of feedback and driver reward at modest speeds that won't put the locals on edge or endanger lives – you can use more of the car more of the time.
