Chantilly, Virginia, United States
|
1967 Ford Galaxie 500 Fastback with the factory 390 Big Block 2 bbl with almost 83,000 original miles. Car has been parked under shelter most of its life and garage kept since 2009. Comes with a rare factory tissue dispenser, AM/FM radio, air conditioning and power steering. Everything is in great shape NO rust and it drives good. The car was repainted in the 70’s and shows pretty well however there are a couple small cosmetic dents that were never fixed before paint and an area on the hood with imperfect paint. The bumpers, mirrors, headlight and taillight bezels have been re-chromed with the pot metal mirrors and bezels showing a couple of imperfections the rest of the trim shows well but their aging. The steering wheel and dash board has a crack. The headliner is perfect but the panels next to the rear window appear dirty but not warped. Everything but the clock works great on the car including gauges, lights and AC. I installed new upper, lower control arm bushings, shocks and springs while cleaning and repainting the areas as I went. Brakes and brake lines look and feel good, I replaced the master cylinder and a wheel cylinder, Starts right up and runs great with oil changes having been made at least once a year when driven. Spare tire has never been out. Needs new tires, window felt, Carpet is original. It’s a 47 year old car that needs some TLC and cleaning. The car has never been wrecked and I don't believe there is any putty. |

Four Wheeler crowns Ultimate Factory 4x4... who wins?
Thu, 15 Nov 2012Nearly every automaker doing business in the SUV or pickup truck segments offers a package designed to improve the off-road capabilities of its wares. But, of course, not all such factory kits are created equal. How, then, to separate the wheat from the chaff? Gather each of them up and put them through their paces, naturally.
The folks from Four Wheeler and PickupTrucks.com joined forces to run just such a comparison test, with the winner named the Ultimate Factory 4x4. A total of seven vehicles showed up to the fight: the 2012 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2012 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X and Xterra PRO-4X, 2012 Ram Power Wagon, and 2012 Toyota 4Runner Trail and Tacoma TRD T|X Baja Series.
With the contestants in place, the whole crew put each vehicle through a battery of tests that included skidpad and acceleration measurements, a hillclimb, a rocky stairstep course and a rock garden. Considering the nature of the beasts, on-road ride and comfort were not part of the routine.
Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k
Tue, 07 Oct 2014Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.
Ford dealers offered discounts on tools to fix aluminum
Mon, 27 Jan 2014With the introduction of the aluminum-bodied 2015 Ford F-150 (and the likely use of aluminum in future Ford products), Ford is looking to help its dealerships reduce costs related to repairing this more labor-intensive material. Automotive News is reporting that Ford dealers with body shops will require an estimated $30,000 to $50,000 in equipment and training to work on aluminum, and to help alleviate the financial burden of the new F-150, Ford has announced a special 20-percent discount on this equipment.
Dealers will be able to save up to $10,000 on tools such as welders, air-filtration systems and rivet guns and to create aluminum-specific work stations. The new F-150 goes on sale in the fourth quarter, and dealers have until October 31 to take advantage of this deal, according to the report.
