1964 Ford Galaxie 500 Conv , I have near $15,000 in this car to start with so I'm most likely gonna take a loss selling it.... I built it to cruise to local shows and for photo shoots.... I've owned the car for 2 years and spent the time working on it, I have a clean VA Title in my name.

New & Rebuilt Parts Consisting of:

Rebuilt 352, has reworked 390 heads (all correct 1964 galaxie parts), Car has a mild Comp Cam, Edelbrock Aluminum dual plain intake, Edelbrock 600 Carb, Aluminum Coolant Fill Jug, Aluminum Radiator, Everything in the motor was replaced except the actual pistons (they were re-ringed), I had the original exhaust manifolds plained to seal tight (didn't feel need to spend 5-600 on headers) Reused the points Distributor as it works w/ no issues and car starts w/ a few pumps of the gas and a turn of the key...  Motor has under 500 miles on it, only real issue is I believe the rear main is leaking, we put a new one in but it must not have seated right

Rebuilt Cruise-o-matic Transmission, was rebuilt this year and has under 150 miles on it

New(er) Top, was replaced last year so it's new but is a year old, still looks good as it should, has the plastic back window, had no power to the top switch so I disconnected the hydrolic cylinders, it's being used as a  manual top, it goes up and down easily
New Windshield (including Gasket)
New True Dual Exhaust w/ Performance Mufflers, has a real nice street rod sound but not too much to overkill
New Disc Brake setup on front, upgraded to power brakes, rear brakes rebuilt (reused drums only as they are good), Stainless Brake lines
New Gas Tank, Sending unit, fuel lines (sending unit has a bad connection so fuel gauge isn't currently working)
New Power Steering Pump, Cylinder (the shock like part), one of the steering hoses started leaking so I pulled the belt for it, its just power assist so it drives as a manual steer w/o it... not that bad

I have been through the cars drivetran from front to back now just needing fine tuning stuff, Needs cosmetics or drive it as is......

Paint on car is Teal Primer so its a flat teal color, original color is Robin egg blue as seen in the image of the trunk.  The inside of the car is white Vinyl w/ blue plush inserts, its an older interior so its showing its age, its starting to pull at the seams etc... The car is now at the point that someone can make it their own, your colors your theme

Wheels are Cragar SS Rims, Fronts are 15x6 and the rears are 17x8, all in good shape but not new

Big questions to answer ahead of time, Rust......  it's a 1964 that is not a garage queen so it has had some spots Trunk is solid and Floors (floors may have had repairs years ago but I cannot tell it they have been w/o removing the carpets) , the only underside rust I found to be significant is in the top well (between the quarter panel and the interior paneling), I have put a heavy rubber mat in the area but it does need repaired, the lips on the inside of the quarters have some but most all body work has been done to the car, it wasn't a rust queen when I got it, just needed help,

REASON FOR SELLING:  I have a 57 Chevy in my Driveway that I want to build, I cannot build it until I sell something... and cannot sell my truck cause I need it

INCLUDED WITH CAR, is another hood, as the one on the car has a slight bend to the driver side front corner, Steering gear box, one in the car has some play in it, I have another one thats tighter, Turn signal switch w/ all the wires that attach. Door Gaskets/ other misc...  The passenger side brake light / signal does not work on rear... I ran a jumper wire from the Driver side so that it has brake lights, was told it was the switch.  There are some other nick knack parts that go with the car, tail light assemblies and other stuff that'll fit in the trunk for shipping purposes, if needed I can swap the hood prior to shipping, at this point it will only come w/ the replacement hood and not the one pictured on the car,

Ford recalls 591,177 vehicles in four separate campaigns

Wed, Apr 29 2015

Ford is issuing recalls for a total of 591,177 vehicles worldwide, in four separate campaigns. The announcement comes just days after the discovery of door-latch problems in 390,000 of the automaker's cars. The largest of these new recalls covers 518,313 examples of the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ from the 2013-2015 model years, plus the 2015 Edge. Of these, 487,301 of are in the US and 31,012 are in Canada. For vehicles in cold-weather areas, the bolts that hold the steering gear motor can corrode and fracture. If this happens, it could cause the power steering to fail, but manual control would be retained. There are no reported accidents or injuries from this problem. To fix things, dealers will replace the bolts and seal them. The next campaign covers 50,157 examples of the 2014 Focus, Edge, Escape, and Transit Connect, plus the Fiesta from 2014 and 2015. Of these, 45,505 are in the US, 4,618 in Canada, and 34 in Mexico. All of them exhibit a problem with the fuel pump where the nickel plating can cause the part to seize and the engine to stall, if this occurs. (All of which sounds like recent problems with Nissan and BMW models.) According to Ford, there is one allegation of an accident from this problem. Dealers will replace the fuel delivery module to fix the problem. Ford is also recalling 22,616 units of the 2015 Lincoln MKZ because when the headlights are on, the parking lamps are brighter than they are allowed to be. The light could affect the vision of other drivers. This campaign includes 21,435 of them in the US, 1,066 in Canada and 115 in Mexico. There are no accidents or injuries from the issue, but Ford is updating the software to dim the lights on these sedans. Finally, Ford has a safety campaign for 91 examples of the 2015 F-150 because an underbody heat shield might not be properly installed or not present at all, which can be a fire risk. There are no reports of any actual accidents or fires, though. The affected pickups will have the parts replaced or added, as necessary after a dealer inspection. To see the specific build dates for the models affected by each of these campaigns, you can read about them in the press release below.

Ford GT to be revived, Le Mans battle upcoming

Sun, 05 Oct 2014

Ford dominated the 24 Hours of Le Mans from 1966 to 1969, scoring four consecutive wins. Wouldn't it be great if the Blue Oval could go back to France for the 50th anniversary of that performance and show it can still compete in international endurance racing? Actually, the latest rumors indicate that could be exactly the case, and the car taking that checkered flag could be another revival of the Ford GT.
As the rumblings go, Ford wants to use a new supercar to take another crack at Le Mans, after considering some other possible alternatives. Substantiating these musings are reports that a Blue Oval rep was reportedly on hand for a recent meeting about 2016 GTE-Class rules, according to Road and Track. That would put the new GT in the same racing class as the Corvette, Ferrari 458 Italia, Porsche 911 and others.
It's not all about racing, though. If you win on Sunday, you want something to be able to sell on Monday. The revived GT is reportedly still a mid-engine supercar, but the exact engine is unclear. It's possible that it could even be shown or announced at the Detroit auto show in January, according to Motor Trend.
