1967 Ford Galaxie Xl 500 428 - 7 Litre Convertible on 2040-cars
Tulsa, Oklahoma, United States
See Attached Marti Report! 1967 Ford Galaxie 428 - 7 litre Convertible First of all... If you noticed, I had to list this car under the "Galaxie" name, but for you knowledgeable individuals, you know that the "Galaxie" name was dropped for the "XL" series in 1967 for the 7 Litre sports package. So without restating the obvious, you now the '66 7 Litre was a model and the '67 7 litre was an option "Q" code with the 428 engine. As for my car, you won't be dissapointed with this vehicle... It is a low mileage original condition convertible that was a low production number for '67. This car was special ordered from the Oklahoma City district, and sold through Fred Jones Ford of Tulsa to Doenges Bros. Ford in Bartlesville, OK. I have tons of documents verifying the originality of the car along with the Marti Report verifying this data. 1967 saw very few 7 litre convertibles and even fewer Raven Black with Red Interior... I purchased this car from the 2nd Owners Widow a few years back and have that information as well... The car has always been garaged and has never been wrecked... the paint is a 9+ out of 10... The interior is a 8 out of 10... with it having a dash pad over the original pad... It looks fine, but is not a 10. If you don't know about 7 litres, you should do your research to verify how these cars have increased in value. Last month, a '67 Hardop sold for over 45K... it was the only one that came from the factory with A/C... I have posted a lot of pictures... taken over the years, and will post some more soon... the underneath is as clean as the top... and the trunk is flawless... I put new tires on last year, so you can fly in and drive home... You sould just pick up the phone and call me for more informaton that I can possible put here on paper... 918 346 3593 "Jack"

Ford dealer gives James Robertson new 2015 Taurus
Fri, Feb 6 2015James Robertson, the 56-year-old Detroit native famous for walking 21 miles to work each day for the last 10 years, is behind the wheel again thanks to a gift from a Ford dealer. Robertson became an Internet sensation when the story about his daily ordeal came to light, and a GoFundMe campaign initially hoped to raise $5,000 to buy him a new ride. As of this writing, it has reached over $300,000. He didn't have to dip into any of that money to buy the new car, though. According to The Detroit Free Press, Suburban Ford of Sterling Heights, MI, heard about Robertson's story of never being late to work and having perfect attendance. The dealer is donating a fully loaded, red 2015 Taurus to him. It's not one of our choices, but certainly nothing to sneeze at. Robertson started walking to work in 2005 when his Honda broke down. According to the GoFundMe page, his job is about 23 miles away, but thanks to Detroit's poor bus network, he covers about 21 miles of that round-trip trek on foot each day.

Ford Q1 profits dragged down by warranty costs
Fri, 25 Apr 2014General Motors isn't the only Detroit automaker posting falling profits in the first quarter. Ford just released its Q1 2014 financial data, and it reported a net income of $989 million, down $622 million from Q1 2013. The drop is partially blamed on higher warranty and recall expenses than the company had anticipated.
Financially, Ford suffered a rough quarter almost across the board. Its pre-tax profit of $1.4 billion was also down $765 million from a year ago. Things were even worse in the North American market where operating profit fell significantly to $1.5 billion, down from $2.392 billion in Q1 2013. However, its global revenue ticked up slightly to $35.9 billion, from $35.6 billion in this period in 2013.
Ford admitted that it spent about $900 million on expenses that it hadn't planned for during this quarter. According to Reuters, the company paid about $400 million in additional warranty and recall costs in North America. The automaker didn't explain why the costs were so much higher than expected. However, in the last three months, Ford has had several recalls, including on the 2001-2004 Escape for rust, Explorer for its steering, Edge for its fuel line and others.
Ex-GM VP LaNeve takes over Lincoln ad agency
Wed, 10 Apr 2013Those of you that caught yesterday's op-ed about Lincoln will have heard already, but Mark LaNeve has taken the helm at Team Detroit. Once the North American vice president of sales, service and marketing for General Motors, LaNeve will now head up the agency that handles all of Ford advertising. LaNeve will also run the account for Lincoln. While at GM from 2001 to 2009, the exec oversaw ad campaigns like Cadillac's Breakthrough and sales initiatives like "Employee Pricing for Everyone."
He left in 2009 to join Allstate as chief marketing officer, oversaw the creation of the Mayhem ad spots and was moved into the role of VP of agency operations overseeing Allstate's 10,000 agents. He resigned from the insurer in February 2012 for personal reasons and joined Team Detroit in August 2012 as chief operating officer, in charge of satellite offices in New York and internationally. He replaces ex-CEO Cameron McNaughton, and will continue to hold the title of COO.
Lincoln is trying to get its 2013 back to rights after putting big dollar commercials for the 2013 MKZ on television then having production glitches preventing cars from getting to dealerships. With rumors of a relaunch in the works, it's no surprise LaNeve has been given the reins - and from here it looks like the brand is desperate for the kind of magic he's proved he can marshal. Perhaps he can start by calling a mulligan on the renaming exercise that gave us the hoary "Lincoln Motor Company" and go back to oh, say, "Lincoln." Then he can ask the product folks to get to work on the MKC concept...
