1966 Ford Galaxie 500 Ltd / 390 4bbl / 3 Speed Auto C6 on 2040-cars
Stevensville, Michigan, United States
|
390 4bbl, 3 speed auto c6.
Beautiful interior, new brakes, new edelbrock perform rpm intake, new vacuum booster, new master cylinder, new water pump, new fuel pump and pressure regulator, new alternator, new battery, freshly rebuilt 600 cfm Edelbrock carb There's a scratch on the passenger side that you'll most likely want to get fixed and some light bubbling along the rocker panels and bottom of driver door. The underneath is fairly solid. Has some surface rust but no major issues. Someone gas welded a patch in the driver side floor board that doesn't look nice (pictured) but does the job. The trunk has a hole that was filled in with some foam but other than that there aren't any holes. Frame is solid. The body work is not pristine, it's an older restoration and wasn't done pristine. So it's not perfect, but great from 15 feet. The 390 has high end power but not much low end. The person who had it before me said they ported the heads and put a cam in it. I think they put in a pretty big cam. I believe a torque converter with a stall would help or shorter gears would help. I put a lot of new parts on the engine so it runs well and is a great cruiser right now. Leave it like it is or take it to the next level, your choice. The C6 transmission has a drip to it. It has power steering and power drum brakes. I put new 4 new wheel cylinders on it and the drums are in good shape. |

Chrysler called out over lackluster Ram Runner by racer who helped develop it
Fri, 11 Apr 2014Fans of off-roading and desert blasting might recall that Chrysler offers an aftermarket conversion that can turn a Ram 1500 into a road-legal desert racer, called the Ram Runner. The kit, sold through Mopar, includes some significant suspension upgrades, body tweaks and a brawnier cat-back exhaust for the truck's 5.7-liter V8.
Considering all of this, comparisons with the almighty Ford F-150 SVT Raptor are common. Among the off-road community, that makes these two a sort of Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang for people that prefer driving on dirt. In the Race-Dezert forum, the discussion as to which truck was better was proceeding as normal - Ram fans said their piece and Ford fans said theirs. Then, a man named Kent Kroeker offered up his two cents.
See, Kroeker is a Baja racer, and the man that helped develop the Ram Runner. Despite his association with the truck, though, he had some less than kind words for Chrysler and the Ram Runner.
Ford to build next F-150, outgoing model concurrently?
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Ford is rumored to be considering concurrent production for old and new F-150 models in a bid to minimize supply chain disruptions and inventory. Automotive News is reporting that the Blue Oval will build both the current F-150 and its replacement, which we showed you testing just last month, side by side for about half a year before switching over entirely to next-generation production.
As IHS Automotive analyst Mike Jackson told AN, "In order to ramp up, you have to retool...and that means you have to take capacity offline." Building both models alongside could allow Ford to cope with the still strong demand for the current F-150, while populating dealer supplies and working out supply chain kinks for the new model before making a full-time switch.
A loss of capacity when demand is so strong, even for a short period, could spell bad news for Ford, which nets an estimated 90 percent of its global profit on pickups and large SUVs. As AN states, Ford produces the F-150 in both Kansas City, Missouri and Dearborn, Michigan, which allows it to maintain some degree of flexibility in production. The new F-150 is expected to arrive at the 2014 North American International Auto Show as a 2015 model, with a design inspired by the Atlas Concept first shown at the Detroit Auto Show last January.
Fiat boss Elkann being mentored by... Bill Ford?
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Fiat Chairman John Elkann has been turning to an unusual source for advice on the car business. While speaking during an interview with The Detroit News, Elkann said he often asks Bill Ford Jr. for advice on how to proceed with the turnaround at Chrysler. "It's great to have the opportunity to share this with someone like Bill, who has experienced many things and gone through many things ... especially linked to Detroit." Elkann said.
As the Agnelli family heir, Elkann has inherited a long and fruitful friendship with the Ford family. While Giovanni Agnelli built his first Fiat four years before Henry Ford created his first vehicle, it was Ford that showed Agnelli the benefits of mass production and helped pave the way for what would become the Fiat empire.
Giovanni's grandson, Gianni, helped mentor Bill Ford when he was elected chairman of Ford Motor Company. Now, Ford is returning the favor by helping Elkann navigate the automotive industry's tumultuous waters.
