What you are looking at would be considered a survivor,
original, lightly cleaned up or preserved car.
This stunning 1964 Galaxie has had the black paint redone and some other
things cleaned up. But it hasn’t been
restored. It runs, shifts, drives and
acts like a new car. If you can
remember riding in a new 64 Galaxie, this would be really darn close. Just closing the doors, hood and trunk on
this car feels right. Everything works
as it should. Driving to a show today I
decided to try the cigarette lighter and that even worked! This car gets as much positive attention as
my 390 Tripower car. I have stock cars,
powerful cars, even a nitrous breathing Mustang. This 64 Galaxie for sale is a factory 352 4V
car. It’s not a race car…it’s even
better. There is something so nice about
getting behind the wheel of this car.
The motor is snappy. It runs so
smooth, powerful and so easy. This car
is a cruiser. My other 64 is a 390
stroker, aluminum headed 5 speed trip car.
It’s desirable, it’s fast, it’s fun.
I will tell you that driving this black 352 64 is even better. It’s calming, pleasant, and a blast. Something about pulling up to the light with
just some sweet sounding pipes, its low profile and great looks is even better
than being in my cammed up beast cars.
This car takes the cake for cruising.
You can load up the family and hit the local show to get a trophy. It’s that kind of reliable drive anyplace
car. Tap the key and this lively 352 FE
will snap to life. Put it into gear and
she shifts perfectly like it should. It’s
smooth and will put a smile on your face when you hear those big heads
breathing through the factory H pipe into a set of Magnaflow glass packs. When we did the heads and looked in the cylinders there were
still honing marks from the factory.
This car has no exhaust leaks, no oil leaks, doesn’t use or burn oil,
all around perfect running 352 that sits around 175-190*. Today I went for a ride, its 90* out. When I came back to check the temp, we were
sitting at 188* on the coolant.
Impressive! Why am I selling
it? It’s painful to actually consider
letting her go. However I was able to
line up one of my favorite cars and my first car. A 1960 9 passenger County Sedan. I need the money and space to do the
wagon. So this sweet 64 needs to
go. Also I need to give my wife’s
Mustang a bit more attention as well. Below and in all the pictures I am going to highlight what
should be important to anyone who is buying a classic. I have done many cars and even sold a
handful. 100% of the feedback has been
along the lines of people telling me I described the car perfectly or that the
car is nicer than I described. I kind of
like to under promise and over deliver.
I am not fast eddy the used car salesman. I am just a guy who is addicted to what we
call the classic car hobby. I live,
breath and love old cars. Save the hobby
and the cars is what I do. Please see
the good, the not perfect and the beauty of this 64 Galaxie 500. This car was built 10.31.1963 (yes, Halloween) I have the original manual with the original owner’s info
from the dealer where the car was purchased new. It even came with a woman’s guide to good
driving (I’m not being sexist, it was there along with the manual J) The paint on the roof is 100% original; most of the black
has been redone. The black paint isn’t
perfect but sure does shine. There are still the "Paint OK" stamps under the hood. Clearly these fenders have never been off! The interior has a small spot that needs fixed on the top of
the seat. I was going to have the front
seat redone but it would be a crime to touch the original seats for just one
spot. Everything works as it should. Lights, lighter, wipers, signals, reverse
lights, heater, AM radio works and the horn works. Actually the only thing that doesn’t work
perfectly is the fuel gauge. I will get
in and fix it – it’s a common problem in the sending unit. I bet I have a new sending unit on the shelf. New parts just installed in the past 500 miles: Idler arm bushing Tuned Edelbrock 600 CFM 4 barrel Hipo style air cleaner (you get the stock one too but it
isn’t good for flow at all) Fresh C4AE-6090-G heads.
These heads freaking flow! New intake and exhaust gaskets 160* thermostat (huge decrease in temp that makes all FE
motors happy) Brad Penn Synthetic high Zinc 10/40 oil Exhaust manifolds have been high temp powder coated factory
cast color Valve covers have been powder coated factory 64 352 Old Ford
Blue (looks brand new and way better than paint) Fan shield powder coated correct black New caution and 352 stickers. (I did put 352 hipo stickers on the valve
covers. They can come off without
harming the covers. Even though they are
for a 60 hipo, I think they look great on this car) The 352 was a 4.0 bore by 3.5 stroke. Some of these engines were ho hum and some
were great. This motor has factory flat
top pistons. Matching that with the C4AE
6090-G heads really makes this car get up and go if it needs to. The 4v Edelbrock has proven to be a great
carb. It has made this 64 run much
better than it did with the 4100. On one
of my other cars, an Edlebrock made 18 more HP and gained me 3 MPG over a
holley. This was a stock 428 motor and
JUST by bolting this carb on I was able to see the gains on the dyno and at the
pump. You will love the 352 FE with this
Edelbrock! I can include a Ford 4100
that needs rebuilt for you Ford parts only purists. Everything on this car besides the carb and the air filter
is set up like factory. Even the vacuum
set up, kick down, everything is just way it should be. This car sounds good, looks good, works good,
drives good, runs good, and gets good attention. It’s easy to drive. My wife can go out to the car cold, start it
and head out without an issue. Vin Tag Body = 63B Color = AM Trim = 75 Date = 31K Axle = 1 Trans = 4 VIN = 4P66X121252 Breakdown of the vin: Body = 63B (2 Door Fastback) Color = AM (Raven Black/Wimbledon White) (Paint codes 1724

(or see since so many people do a white roof when restoring). Please contact me before you bid if you have less than 10 positive feedback. If you have less than 10 I have to cancel your bit.

Ford Australia reveals updated Territory, Falcon via Twitter
Mon, 28 Jul 2014Ford may have tied together much of its global lineup under the One Ford campaign, but one market where it still offers unique products is Australia. That will soon draw to a close as well, but before it does, the Blue Oval's Aussie operations are rolling out refreshed versions of its two unique products. For the moment, Ford isn't revealing much in the way of powertrain details, but it has shown off a couple of snaps of the revised products on its in-market Twitter feed.
First up is the new Territory. The SUV is neither based on a front-drive crossover platform nor on a truck frame, but shares its rear-drive underpinnings with the Falcon, taking it a step beyond the Falcon wagon alongside which it sits in Ford's Aussie range. Like the outgoing third-generation SZ Territory, the facelifted version is dominated by a narrow grille and larger front air dam, but further punctuates its big-chinned look with more rugged lower cladding and other metallic inserts that bring its look up to date.
And there's the Falcon, which Ford revealed in XR8 trim just last week and is now presenting in G6E spec. If the XR8 is the performance model, the G6E is the luxury version, swapping in more refined trim like a chrome-slat grille (instead of a black honeycomb), chrome foglamp surrounds, less-aggressive multi-spoke wheels (instead of five-spokes) and a flatter hood (instead of a power bulge). Otherwise, it looks essentially the same as the one we saw last week, its facelift bringing it more in line with the smaller, front-drive Mondeo (which we know here as the Fusion) and other members of the Ford family.
Ford to cease Australian automaking operations after 90 years
Thu, 23 May 2013Ford began manufacturing cars in Australia in 1925 with the Model T. In 2016, Ford will stop manufacturing cars Down Under, including the Falcon and the Territory SUV. Ford Australia CEO Bob Graziano has reportedly confirmed the closure of the company's Broadmeadows assembly plant and the Geelong engine plant, both in the state of Victoria. There will be 650 jobs lost at Broadmeadows, 510 sacrificed at Geelong. Of the roughly 3,000 workers the Blue Oval has in Australia, it's said it will try to retain about 1,000 of them at its R&D and product development facilities.
The writing hasn't just been on the wall, it's been a regular item in all the papers and on Ford's bottom line for years. As recently as 2003, Ford sold nearly 75,000 Falcons, but over the next four years, annual sales dropped by something like 10,000 units, and over the last two years, it has sold less than 20,000 per year. It isn't only Ford that has suffered - sales of the other large, locally produced sedan, the Holden Commodore, have also gone over the precipice, triggering the same kind of angst about Holden's continued existence. Ford is the smallest of Australia's local automakers, Holden and Toyota the others, and has posted losses of $AUD141 million last year ($136M US) and $AUD600 million ($580M US) in the past five years. Graziano said the cost of manufacturing is simply too expensive in the country, twice as high as Europe and three times as high as Asia, and there no way to make a business case for staying in the country.
In January 2012, Ford Australia announced it would stay in the country until at least 2016, but by July of the same year, most outside observers were quietly declaring that 2016 would be the last year of Ford Down Under, and even the speculation was making other observers nervous. Ford received money from the Victorian government last year to aid its refresh of the Falcon and Territory, which will continue on schedule for the 2014 model year. A front- and all-wheel-drive sedan on a global platform is predicted to replace the Falcon, with some other SUV expected to replace the Territory. The company says it still intends to expand its lineup in the country.
Ford's China sales keep falling, down 30% in third quarter
Fri, Oct 11 2019BEIJING — Ford's July-to-September vehicle sales in China fell 30%, as the U.S. automaker continued to lose ground in a prolonged sales decline in its second biggest market. The Dearborn, Michigan-based automaker delivered 131,060 vehicles in China in the third quarter, Ford said in a statement. Ford's sales in China fell 35.8% in the first quarter and by 21.7% in the second quarter. In the third quarter, sales of the automaker's mass-market Ford brand fell 37.7%, while its luxury division Lincoln saw sales drop by 24.1%. It delivered around 421,000 vehicles in the first nine months of the year, according to Reuters calculations. Ford has been struggling to revive sales in China after its business began slumping in late 2017. Sales sank 37 percent in 2018, after a 6 percent decline in 2017. The automaker plans to launch more than 30 new models in China over the next three years, of which more than a third will be electric vehicles. It also said it would localize management teams by hiring more Chinese staff and aimed to improve relationships with joint venture partners. Ford has launched a series of new models in the third quarter in China, including Focus, Edge, and the electric Territory. In China, Ford makes cars through its joint venture with Chongqing Changan Automobile Co and Jiangling Motors. It has said it would partner with Zotye Automobile Co to sell lower-priced cars, but there seems to have been little progress. In a series of moves, Ford named a new president for its main local venture, Changan Ford, in August and said it would enhance its partnership with Changan through research, production and marketing cooperation in September. Ford is also planning to revamp some of its existing manufacturing facilities with Changan to localize production of its premium brand Lincoln. Changan Ford's sales down by around 33.5% in the third quarter, according to Reuters calculations based on Changan's filings. Ford rival General Motors' July-to-September vehicle sales in China fell 17.5%, to 689,531 vehicles. As GM and Ford China sales extend declines, U.S. car companies' market share of total China passenger vehicle sales fell to 9.5% in the first eight months of this year, from 10.7% in the year-ago period, according to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM). Over the same period, German carmakers' share has risen to 23.8% from 21.6%, and Japanese automakers' share rose to 21.7% from 18.3%.
