1965 Ford Galaxie Red on 2040-cars
Yonkers, New York, United States
This awesome Galaxie 500 has been professionally re-formed into a mildly modified 100% street legal muscle car. A few modifications have been added. She was built and dressed as a 427ci p engine with mid-rise 427ci 425hp heads and manifold, dual Ford aluminum quad intake with two, new Holley 600cfm carburetors. A 427ci solid lifter cam & a dual point distributor from a 63 1/2 Ford. The car is equipped with an MSD electronic ignition and cooled by a high capacity radiator. The car runs at a perfect 185 degrees. Hooker Competition Headers and dual Flow Masters add to the fun! Behind the 425hp engine is a very strong and brand new, all steel Borg Warner T-10 4 speed transmission with a HURST shifter and heavy duty drive shaft. New heavy duty clutch & clutch plate was also replaced recently. The rear axle assembly is a Detroit Locker with Richmond 4.10 gears and 31 Spline axles in a Ford 9" nodular casing. A competition engineered custom 4-foot ladder bar has been added to the rear suspension along with all chrome Molley rounded tubing, cross-members, supports, new springs and air shocks to add to the incredible performance of this car. To top it all off, a fiberglass Thunderbolt hood has been added. The level of workmanship on this car is amazing from top to bottom. Every inch of this restoration has been thought out to the last detail and it shows. Although a true performance package has been added to this Galaxie 500, it is still a very tame street cruiser when you want it to be. Long drives are a pleasure. With all the Engine Talk out of the way, this car still retains alot of its originality as well. The body is 100% rust free and all steel. No bondo. It was originally bought in FlagStaff Arizona until it was brought to NY in 2008. The car has been beautifully refinished in its original Rangoon Red and is nearly perfect as is the chrome and trim. The interior is incredible and has all new red rolled upholstery and headliner. All safety equipment such as headlamps, brake lights and signals work properly. The heater, gauges and odometer work as they should. The speedometer is not working. Windows roll up & down easily. This is a factory RADIO DELETE car. Mileage reads 76000 which is correct. She rides on 16" period correct American Racing Torque Thrust rims on 4 new Falken Tires... 225/60s in the front and 235/60 in the rear. Overall, in our opinion, this is a solid, much better than average #2++ car that is 100% roadworthy, safe and completely reliable. it is a car that was plentiful in its day but is rarely seen today, especially at this level and condition. Feel free to ask questions. Road tests are welcome. If youd like to fly in and see her, we will pick you up at any local NY airport. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! |

Project Ugly Horse: Part VII
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Devils, Details and Weight Reduction
There are many things I could call this exercise. A party is not one of them.
I've spent three days crammed in the axle well of this 1989 Mustang with nothing to keep me company beyond a trouble light, a DeWalt drill on the very last of its legs and billion razor sharp, red hot slivers of metal with an affinity for my most sensitive of regions. My joints are raw from crawling around on the concrete. I'm half deaf from the shriek of the spot weld cutter and the boom of the cold chisel and hammer.
Ford is recalling more Takata airbag-equipped Ford and Lincoln models
Thu, Mar 2 2017The Basics: Takata, the beleaguered airbag supplier at the root of the largest recall in automotive history, has informed Ford of a problem with the airbags in just over 30,000 Ford and Lincoln models. The problem is not related to the non-desiccated ammonium nitrate airbag inflators that plague the other airbags ( including many Fords), meaning there isn't a risk of shrapnel flying out from the units in this particular recall. The Problem: In the event of an accident, the front airbags may only partially inflate, and the airbag may become detached from the module because of misaligned parts. The problem affects 2016 and 2017 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX models built at the Oakville Assembly Plant. The issue also affects 2017 Lincoln Continentals that were built at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Injuries/Deaths: In a release, Ford stated that it is not aware of any accidents, injuries, or deaths related to the airbag issue. The Fix: Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag module at no cost. If You Own One: Sit tight and wait for Ford to notify owners. When that happens, take your car to the dealer for a replacement. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Jerry Seinfeld doesn't love Sarah Jessica Parker's new Country Squire in latest CiCGC
Fri, 20 Jun 2014Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee has finally returned for its fourth season of combining Jerry Seinfeld, a miscellaneous celebrity and a cup of java. But rather than fondly remembering some older piece of automotive machinery, this time around, Seinfeld is utterly unable to keep his hatred of Sarah Jessica Parker's 1976 Ford LTD Country Squire from coming out to hilarious effect.
However, Parker has such a high level of infectious enthusiasm for her recently purchased Country Squire that she seems to win over Seinfeld by the end - at least a little bit. For most of their time together, the two of them drive around Manhattan and the suburbs waxing nostalgic about what things were like when these wagons were ubiquitous.
Since this is actually SJP's car, she and Seinfeld trade off driving duties, and the image above should give you some indication of Seinfeld's reaction to the Sex and the City star behind the wheel. It seems this '70s land yacht might be a little too much for her to handle in New York traffic. Regardless, she is absolutely in love with her Ford.
