1966 Ford Galaxie Base 6.4l on 2040-cars

Year:1966 Mileage:87108 Color: are on both rear wheel arches
Location:

Cullowhee, North Carolina, United States

Cullowhee, North Carolina, United States

Up for sell is a running 2 door Galaxie with a 390, C6, and 9 inch rear with 3:00 gearing with 87,108 miles on the clock that I do believe to be fairly accurate. This was to be a project car, but I need the money to pay for school, more then I need the car right now.

The engine has a 4 barrel Edelbrock carb and an aluminum intake. I do not know the maker of the intake or the size of the carb. I cannot prove it but I am pretty sure the car had a 2 barrel carb from the factory.  The interior is worn, but the person I bought it from placed new carpet in it as well as floor mats. I believe if it was cleaned it would look great. The front seats have tears in it, mostly on the driver’s seat. I think most; if not all of the large trip pieces are with the car. They are in pretty good shape accept for the wheel arch molding witch was slightly bent and dinged up when the previous owner removed them. The original wheel covers are included. There are some small trim pieces missing.

The car started life as a raven black car with a Wimbledon white top. Sometime later the top was painted black also. The only major rust issues on the exterior are on both rear wheel arches. Both have holes in them that have been patched by the previous owner with body filler. He had also started sanding the car to paint it when he sold it to me. The battery box is also a rust issue like most old vehicles. The radiator support has some holes that would need to be patched. The bottom of the trunk has rust as well as the lid where the latch is. The bumpers are also rusted and would need to be rechromed.

The car has four wheel manual drum brakes. The person I bought it from told me that he had just had them redone so they should be pretty new. The brake pedal in the car says power disk brake, so I do not know what is original. The car has power steering and A/C. The A/C compressor and a bracket where in a box in the trunk, when I got the car. I do not think it is a factory air car, but was added on later. There is also a chip in the windshield.

The car does run and can be driven onto a trailer. The car has aluminum wheels and the tires on it are in good shape. The lights all work as far as I can tell. Headlights, high beams, turn, brake, and the light inside the trunk works. I am not sure the fuel gauge works. The speedometer does move, but I have not driven it very far to tell how accurate it is, since it does not have a tag. The padded dash is torn up and a newer cover is placed over it that matches the carpet and the radio does not work.

Buyer is responsible for pick up, but can assist in loading. Cash or cashier check only. Pick up must be within 3 days of close of auction.

Ford fixing 130k vehicles in three recalls

Wed, Oct 28 2015

Ford is issuing three new safety campaigns that cover a total of 130,801 vehicles in North America, but the company has no reports of accidents, injuries, or fires from any of these issues. The largest of these campaigns covers 128,823 examples of the 2009-2010 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX that are currently registered or originally sold in rust-prone areas of North America, including 110,636 in the US. On these crossovers, "corrosion under the reinforcement brackets where the fuel tank is mounted" can potentially result in a fuel leak. To fix the issue, dealers will inspect the tank and will repair or replace it as necessary. The affected locations are: Connecticut, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia, Wisconsin; and the Canadian provinces of New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, and Quebec. Ford is also recalling 1,906 North American examples of the 2016 Mustang, including 1,900 in the US, because of possible damage to some components during shipping to the factory. On the affected pony cars, "dealers will replace front and rear seat belt assemblies, rear seat buckle assemblies, and child tethers," the company says in its statement. Finally, the smallest campaign is for 72 units of the 2016 Ford E-Series cutaway and chassis cab in North America, including 65 in the US. On these, the trailer brakes don't activate when pressing the brake pedal, and dealers need to update the powertrain control module software.

Ford opens the doors on its Swedish rally skunkworks

Fri, 19 Sep 2014

It's always amazing to see how different kinds of racecars are made. Formula One racers are often constructed in modern architectural marvels that hint at some of the cutting-edge technology going into the racing. Conversely, rallying is all about sliding around on a varied course as fast as possible, but it often leaves a vehicle caked in mud. So it makes some sense Olsbergs MSE, or simply (OMSE) rally car shop in Nynashamn, Sweden, shows technological sophistication in a more down-to-earth setting. It builds Ford Fiesta ST racers for Global Rallycross there, and this new video gives viewers a tour through the work.
Former rally driver Andreas Eriksson runs OMSE. These days instead of racing, he and the company's 46 employees are building Ford racers from scratch. A ton of work goes into constructing each one, and according to Eriksson, it takes 400 hours to complete each body. At times, things are so busy that some of the technicians live in the shop in apartments that are on premises. There's even a restaurant to keep them fed. Sadly the dyno room is empty during this visit, though.
By the time OMSE is done, a rallycross car might resemble a Fiesta ST on the outside, but as you see in the video, it's a completely different beast underneath. Check out the work it takes to build one of them, and scroll down to read more about it in the official release.
