1966 Ford Galaxie 500 Base 4.7l on 2040-cars
Bay Shore, New York, United States
|
The car is in good condition for its age it has its original paint on it, from what I can see it has not been repaired or any structural damage due to a crash or accident, the body panels are straight and in good shape however there is some rust spots along the fender trim in the rear quarter panels, there is some other rust spots on the battery tray, and the inner fenders but nothing serious, the floor panels are solid and in good condition the worst rust spot is probably on the trunk drivers side (please look at pictures) and the frame rail under passenger's door.
The engine runs very strong and with no issues it has an Edelbrock intake manifold and a holly carburetor, there is not much I can say about it except that it has not failed me in over two years that I own the car, the transmission shifts smoothly and again it has not fail me yet . I have not done any custom work on this car myself so its as original as when I got it. The interior need a little work the bench seat has a couple of rips on the drivers and passenger side that has been taped off. (lol) there is a crack on the dash board where the speaker is and the headliner needs to be repaired, but obviously non of this affects the drive-ability of the car . Again is a really cool looking car that I use personally almost every day in the summer time, I take it to shows and swap meets and always get compliments on it. I bought the car about two years ago with the intention of restoring it but I have too many other projects and no time for a full scale restoration project besides I have too much fun driving it . I've done a couple of things to it like : a new radiator, new sway bar bushings and end links , new front shocks, rebuild the power steering box , new belts, new exhaust manifold gaskets, it has a modern stereo under the dash. (original radio still in the car) it has a set of vintage keystone wheels with sport radial tires about 80% tread on them , I also have the original steel wheels with original hub caps. This auction has a low reserved, so please ask any questions before bidding the buyer is responsible for picking up the car after paying for it in full. also this car is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early if it becomes unavailable. any question write me an email or feel free to call me 718-926-0511 I'm available to show the car any time upon request in long island NY. |

The 11 most expensive American cars ever
Tue, 12 Aug 2014Here's a Pro Tip for all you would-be classic car investors out there: buy Ferraris. With the Pebble Beach festivities kicking off this week, including any number high end car auctions, we thought it would be entertaining to compile a list of some to the most expensive cars ever sold with the bang of a gavel. Trouble is, once you get past the splendor of everyone's favorite Italian sports car maker, that list is pretty boring.
Ferrari dominates the all-time auction sales list; seven of the top ten most expensive cars sold wear the Cavallino Rampante badge, as well as more than half of the top fifty. Sure, a nearly $30-million Mercedes-Benz W196 racecar might be the new top dog as of last year, but it's even possible that Ferrari could take that title back in Monterey this weekend. Long story short: we think a list of the most expensive American cars ever sold at auction is a lot more entertaining to read. Hell, our list has a friggin' Batmobile on it, how can it go wrong?
Follow on below for the top ten cars that are red, white, blue and a whole lot of green.
Ford doubling 1.0L EcoBoost engine production
Fri, 06 Sep 2013Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine hasn't been around that long, but it sounds like the engine is getting to be fairly popular in the automaker's global car lineup. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford has add a second shift that will allow its German engine plant to double daily output from 500 engines to 1,000.
The increased capacity is part of a plan to sell more than 300,000 vehicles a year with this engine in Europe by 2015. Europe is currently the only market where the smallest of the EcoBoost engines is offered (including in the Focus pictured above), but US-spec Fiesta models will be getting this mill for 2014.
Three-cylinder engines are expected to continue to grow in popularity in coming years with the report indicating that global production of these engines will double by 2018 to 9.8 million units. General Motors, BMW and Mitsubishi are all expected to introduce three-cylinder engines in the near term, as well.
Ford Mondeo classes up with premium Vignale trim
Wed, 11 Sep 2013Back in the day, Vignale was a carrozzeria of the highest order, alongside the likes of Pininfarina, Bertone and Zagato. But like Giugiaro-ItalDesign and Ghia, it has since been subsumed into a larger auto group. Ford ended up with it under its umbrella when it took over De Tomaso, and has since used the moniker for a number of concept cars. Now the name is back in the form of a new upscale sub-brand for the European market.
The first new model to receive the Vignale treatment is the Mondeo, which Ford unveiled here at the Frankfurt Motor Show in both sedan and wagon forms. Positioned above the Titanium trim, the Vignale model gets such special touches as chrome trim and a quilted leather interior, Vignale badges replacing any mention of the Mondeo on which it's based. It also gains an ownership experience - including free car washes for life! - to befit the upscale positioning.
Under the bright spotlights above the show floor, the Nocciola metallic brown paint might not be the most photogenic, but will likely give the Vignale edition a more premium look when it hits European dealers and roads in 2015. Whether it'll be worth however much Ford asks for it, however, remains to be seen. Scroll down below for the official press release.
