 This is a very nice driver car mostly original in condition.   It has a new rebuilt engine and transmission, new top, complete new a/c system including everything,  tires replaced, new brakes was a daily driver over 50 miles a day.   This car runs cool and starts right up.  I appears to still have the original interior.  The car belonged to a friend of mine who passed.   I purchased it from his widow.   This car has sat in storage for the past couple of years and I have made it a point to drive and start the car on a regular basis.  I have driven the car and it runs down the road smoothly.  

Mechanically the car is ready to drive and enjoy.   It still has the original paint and it is down to the metal along the top of the drivers fender.  Looks like someone took a buffer to it at some point.  Interior has a couple wear points showing through on the drivers seat (very minor).  

The worst points on the car is some rust on the rear where it is bubbling the paint.  These spots are not rusted through and seem to be isolated to the rear along the bottom and the fuel door.  Possible coming from the top letting water in where it should.  This car is not a rust bucket because the trunk floor and rockers etc are all solid.   If you decide to have the car painted I would fix these spots at that time.  The other bad point on the car is the dash which has cracks and is breaking up.    My contact number is 410 533 5347  (work cell phone) ask for Sterling in Big Sandy  Open to TRADES   NEW OR OLD   This is not a Galaxie just an XL could not list it properly.  XL was to be an individual line for ford as I understand it.

Focus ST diesel variant coming, just don't look for it here

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

A few years back, Volkswagen made some waves when it announced the Golf GTD - a diesel-powered car that, aside from its ultra-efficient, ultra-torquey engine, was identical to the gas-powered GTI. That meant cosseting sport seats, larger wheels, sportier suspension, larger brakes and a body kit that made the GTD indistinguishable from the GTI, except for the three little letters on the back and in the grille.
Now, Ford is looking to replicate VW's success, with a diesel version of the Focus ST. According to Motor Trend, the diesel-powered ST will use a 2.0-liter, 182-horsepower four-cylinder. With an unspecified amount of torque on offer (we'd guess around 280 pound-feet), the diesel hot hatch should hit 62 miles per hour in about eight seconds.
The report, which originally comes from Auto Express, claims the ST Diesel was confirmed by Ford Chief Marketing Officer Mark Fields during this week's Geneva Motor Show. Not surprisingly, it doesn't appear there are any plans to bring a diesel-powered Focus of any kind to the US, let alone one that uses the suspension, steering and other items from the ST. Of course, if there's an official confirmation from Ford, we'll be sure to report on it.

2014 Ford Cobra Jet announced with new colors, parachute mount

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

Ford's drag-strip-ready Mustang Cobra Jet is back for 2014, and it's sporting a few changes to make it even better - both in competition and while sitting still. Rolling off the assembly line ready for duty in the NHRA Stock or Super Stock classes, production of the 2014 Cobra Jet is limited to just 50 units.
Racing upgrades for 2014 include the addition of a new three-speed transmission and a parachute mount, and while these will make the car better in the quarter mile, the Cobra Jet's new colors will make it look better tearing down the track. Buyers can now get their racecars painted up in Gotta Have-It Green or a custom, Cobra Jet-exclusive matte black hue. Ford and Ford Racing have already teamed up to make this an incredible factory drag racer with a full rollcage, massive Hoosier slicks, a race-tuned suspension setup and a supercharged 5.0-liter V8. Now, if only wheelie bars came standard...
Unlike the confusing third-party ordering system announced for the COPO Camaro, all you need to snatch up a 2014 Cobra Jet is $97,990 and good timing (as the cars will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis). Ordering opens up next month with production commencing in July. Check out the press release below.
