1965 Ford Galaxie 390 Cu In 4 Speed Real Z Code! on 2040-cars
Hendersonville, North Carolina, United States

1965 Ford Galaxie I bought this car about a month ago on Ebay, since then I found my 1970 Cuda and bought it so I am selling this car. All I am looking for is my original investment. This Galaxie is an original 390 Z code car, it has a 4 speed transmission in it but originally was 3 on the tree. The guy I got it from said it was bought by a former Highway Patrolman and was raced most of it's life. I do have the race time tickets from dragways so it might be true. The body has all it's original panels and it is a straight car. The dash gauges were changed out to a more modern look and function and all work great. The only rust I have found is on the left rear quarter drop down behind the wheel on the inside wheel well, and under the battery box. There is NO rust on the body panels. The rust I described is very minimal and an easy repair. The paint is old and shines like new but closer than 10 feet and you will spot nicks, scratches and what not. I had it buffed and waxed and improved it but it is probably 20 years old or more. The interior is in really nice condition with new carpet and gauges, there are no tears in the seats or headliner but again they maybe original and don't look new. A good scrub and some condition would make it look much better.
Questions?- call 828-808-3864 or email me. NO TRADES, ask your wife before you bid and don't let your kid have your password and bid. I have heard all of these, and I am sure many of you have too!

Ford F-150 EcoBoost in NHTSA probe for acceleration issue
Tue, 28 May 2013According to Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching a probe into 400,000 Ford F-150 models over possible acceleration problems. According to the article, NHTSA has received 95 reports "alleging incidents of reduced engine power during hard accelerations" on 2011 to 2013 F-150 models equipped with the company's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine.
Automotive News reports that Ford has issued three technical service bulletins "related to intermittent stumble/misfire on acceleration from highway cruise in humid or damp conditions," according to the government agency's documents. About one third of the 95 reports NHTSA has received cited humid or rainy conditions when these problems allegedly occurred.
These technical service bulletins have allowed dealers to address a "condition related to moisture accumulation in the charge air cooler during extended highway cruising at constant throttle in humid or damp conditions," AN reports, citing NHTSA documents. Furthermore, the TSB outlines details for "reprogramming the powertrain control module with the latest calibration and installing a new CAC and air deflector plate."
Jay Leno's Garage goes eco with Ricardo HyBoost
Mon, 17 Mar 2014"Now before you turn away, this is not another boring hybrid car thing..." Despite the slightly defensive introduction from Jay, the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage is actually pretty fascinating. The Ricardo HyBoost is a 2009 Ford Focus that has had a 1.1-liter engine swapped in for the stock 2.0-liter four. That might not get you performance enthusiasts out there fired up, until, that is, you hear that the 1.1L is also fed by both a turbocharger and an electrically driven supercharger for an instant-on "torque-fill" effect. Sounds about right, considering that Ricardo engineering is part of the genius behind the McLaren P1.
Perhaps most exciting of all, the Ricardo folks say that the package should run somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,100. A sort of performance-hybrid that makes sense for the frugal driver and the enthusiast one, then. There's a lot more to the HyBoost, all of which can be seen in the video below.
Ford open to diesel, hybrid or electric Mustang? [w/poll]
Sun, 08 Dec 2013The Ford Mustang may not be the first vehicle that comes to mind when you think of environmentally-friendly forms of transportation. The arrival of the turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the new Mustang could do a lot to combat that perception, but the EcoBoost engine may just be the tip of the iceberg in that regard.
Speaking with Ford powertrain boss Bob Fascetti at the reveal of the new Mustang in Australia, GoAuto reports that the Blue Oval automaker is considering offering its latest pony car with a diesel, hybrid or even electric powertrain in the future.
"We're not looking at diesel at the moment, but given where we need to go with fuel consumption we are looking at all our options," said Fascetti. Other options could include a nine- or ten-speed automatic transmission to replace the current six-speed unit in order to help improve fuel economy and emissions for the Mustang, although figures for the current lineup have yet to be revealed.
