1966 Ford Galaxie 500 - Original Car, Excellent Condition, Running And Driving on 2040-cars
Bloomington, Indiana, United States
1966 Ford Galaxie 500 4 door This is a great original car. Great overall condition, runs
and drives great. This is an unrestored, unmodified, untouched original car. It
is the original paint, no damage, no repairs and all the doors, hood and trunk
fit great with even gaps. It has all the trim, hubcaps and it is complete. It
shows just under 56,000 and that is the original miles. I purchased it from the
family who owned it all its life. Please read below for all the details. Engine: 390 Cubic inch Automatic Power steering The car has had a recent tune up, transmission service,
brakes checked and carb rebuilt. It goes down the road really well, no knocks,
no smoke. It runs, shifts and idles great. When I say recent, it has only 10
miles on it since work has been done by a professional shop. New tires. Interior: The front seat has no rips although the bottom on the
driver’s side the material is separated. It may be able to be stretched and
fixed. The back seat is perfect. The dash has no cracks and has good color. The carpet is worn and torn on the driver’s side only at the
door. The door panels are worn at the top and bottom although in
good shape overall. The pillar covers are broken and a new set, the right color
comes with the car. The headliner is in good shape except for a small tear near
the back seat coat hook. I have the steering wheel chrome horn ring, it is not on the
wheel. Exterior: Original paint. It is faded although I think it could be
buffed out to drive it as is. There are a few rust spots, although not big. They are on
the passenger left hand door, the size of a quarter. The two rear fenders at
the bottom have a little rust. The floors are good, no rust. No rust in the
door jambs. The frame and underbody is good. The trunk has rust on the lip where the latch is. Also the
trunk floor has rust although only pin holes through the floor. Easily fixable. All the trim and emblems are on the car. The outside mirrors are off the car, I have them and they
will come with the car. The front bumper is rusty on the bottom half. No thru holes,
although a little rusty. The back bumper has surface rust. It is in good shape Both bumpers are straight, no dents and they are not bent. All the trim around all the doors, windows, side and around
the wheel wells is very good. All emblems are there. All glass is good, no cracks. The light bezels, front and back are good along with the
lenses. The grille has only one small dent which can easily be
corrected. This is great original car that runs and drives great, is in
great original condition, is very straight and comes with all the parts. You
can drive it now and fix it as you go or just leave it like this, buff it out
and have a great time for very little money. Pickup only, no delivery. Please arrange for pickup soon after winning as the place
where I have it stored inside was recently sold and I will no longer have that
storage location. Deposit within 5 days, via Paypal or cash or certified
check. No trades please. Please feel free to ask questions. |

Ford Escort returns... as a concept
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Ford is kickin' it old school at the Shanghai Motor Show for 2013 with a new Escort Concept - "a name that stirs up thoughts of basic, affordable transportation rather than great driving dynamics or bold design" as we said in our initial preview of the small C-segment sedan. Or, as Ford puts it, "Customers in China described seeking a vehicle that is stylish - but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Potato, potahto...
It's an interesting amalgam of design notes with Ford's recent and stylish hexagonal grille up front, flanked by some pretty busy LED light clusters and chrome-trimmed air intakes at the lower extremities of the fascia, but the Escort Concept is not altogether unattractive. Besides its external appearance, we really don't have much information to report - Ford has not yet hinted at what may be powering this little machine, but we'd expect something with four cylinders and less that 2.0 liters of displacement sending a modest number of horses to the front tires.
It probably goes without saying, but we don't expect to see this Escort make its way to the United States, since we already have the Focus and the Fiesta battling it out in the econobox segment. That said, it's very likely to spawn a production model that will roll out here in China and in other developing market where multiple C-segment entries are becoming increasingly common. Check out our high-res image gallery of live images above, and let us know what you think of the car's styling, then scroll down below for the official press release.
Ford ST Octane Academy [w/video]
Wed, 04 Jun 2014
The ST school is about more than just handbrake turns, hot laps, and sliding into parking spaces.
I felt like such a rock star. On my second pass around the UrbanCross course (read: fancy autocross) at the Ford ST Octane Academy, I absolutely nailed the exit, sliding the bright-yellow Focus ST sideways into a box the size of a parking space, all four wheels in line.
2014 Ford Mustang GT
Fri, 17 May 2013I was more than a year removed from my last experience with the Mustang GT and its delicious 5.0 V8 when this new 2014 example rolled up to my driveway recently. Good weather and a planned road trip across the state meant that I would get plenty of seat time in this conservatively specified example, too. In total, I logged about 400 miles in a week of driving - not a lot for some of you super commuters out there, but quite a lot for this work-from-home journalist.
The basic formula of the 5.0 has stayed the same for 2014. The 2013 model year saw a number of updates to keep the Mustang fresh until it's replaced with an all-new generation for 2015. So, for its bon voyage tour, the fifth-generation Pony Car has seen only a few modifications: a couple of new paint colors (Oxford White and Ruby Read Metallic), trim and wheel revisions and, sadly, the deletion of the Boss 302 from the Ford lineup. However, while the limited-edition Boss is likely to reappear sometime after the gen-six Mustang makes its debut in 2015, the GT Track Package cars like the one I tested provide at least a partial solution for those looking for hot laps.
