Up for sale is this great Galaxie 500. My father and I purchased the car in 1993 with about 17,000 miles on it. Now it only has 25,800 ! It is very fun to drive. Never driven in winter while we owned her. Stored in heated shop. At some point before we purchased it, she was painted green. It's original color was silver. Paint shows very well. It had the original bias ply tires when purchased. Replaced with radial tires and smooth chrome wheels. The original exhaust has also been replaced with true duals with Borla tips. Has a sweet sound.  Carpet was done in early 2000's. Added some Auto Meter gauges for temp, volts and oil pressure. Other than that, she has gotten exercise and cruise miles with regular maintenance done every year. The 289 2 barrel purrs like kitten and the car just glides down the road. I have decided to sell because of too many other toys and projects taking up the time to give this great car the attention and driving she deserves.


Paint -  Very shiny. There is a "1/4 ding in the passenger door and some very light bubbling on the right rear panel. Some peeling in drivers side door jam that show's original silver color. 
 
Chrome and trim - Bumpers in good condition. Stud on front left fender Galaxie 500 emblem is broken off. Other trim is good.

Interior - Original seats, door panels, dash are in great shape. There is a small tear in the headliner above passenger door. Clock and radio do not work. Carpet replaced. 

Trunk- Very clean, but has some very light surface rust on left side. 

Glass - Windows roll up and down well . Glass is in good condition. Windshield has a small rock chip.

Engine - Runs like a top. Just replaced fuel filter and did a oil change. The Cruise-O-Matic tranny shifts great. Hand made billet Jim Beam bottle coolant catcher.

Power brakes and steering.

Includes stock wheel covers, original spare tire , jack , original repair and owners manuals.

Being a 48 year old car, it is being sold " as is " with no warranty. I tried to describe it as accurately and honestly as possible.

US Air Force Thunderbirds Mustang fetches $400K at auction

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

For the last six years, Ford has created a special version of the Mustang with a military aviation theme, and then donated the car to the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) to be auctioned off at the annual AirVenture event, also known as The World's Greatest Aviation Celebration. The money raised goes to the EAA Young Eagles program to inspire the "aviation pioneers of tomorrow," and this year's 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition was won with a final bid of $398,000.
Celebrating 60 years of the USAF's Thunderbirds, this Mustang GT is the only one of its kind with a paint job matching the Thunderbirds' F-16 Falcon jets and some Ford Racing performance added on for good measure. Including this car, Ford has helped raise around $2.3 million for the charity with the biggest auction price coming from the first year of the program, the F-22 Raptor-inspired Mustang AV8R from 2008, which sold for $500,000.

Subcompact sales slump, yet again

Toyota tops Consumer Reports best, worst used car values

Tue, 18 Mar 2014

We often mock Toyota for building boring, soulless cars, but a new study by Consumer Reports suggests that regardless of whether that's true, the company has some of the best used cars on the market. In its report on used cars from 2004-2013, the Japanese automaker had 11 vehicles among its brands on the list - more than any other automaker.
CR breaks the list down by cost and vehicle size, and Toyota has at least one entry at every price point and in nearly every segment. To score a recommendation, a vehicle had to perform well in the magazine's initial tests and score above-average reliability results. It also tried to only suggest cars with electronic stability control. Of the 28 recommended vehicles, Honda/Acura had the second most mentions at six, and Ford, Hyundai and Subaru managed two each.
The Detroit brands also made it to the list, but not in a positive way. Consumer Reports compiled a list of 22 vehicles it wouldn't recommend because "they have multiple years of much-worse-than-average overall reliability." General Motors had the most unrecommended models on the list at six, but Chrysler and Ford weren't far behind, with five cars each from their brands not making the grade. The full list of recommendations is available on CR's website.
