62 1962 Ford Galaxie 500 2 Dr Hardtop Z-code 390 Project Or Parts Car on 2040-cars
Statenville, Georgia, United States
This auction is for a very rough and rusty but complete 1962 Ford Galaxie 500 2 door hardtop. It is a Z-code car with the 390/4V Thunderbird motor. Georgia will not issue titles for 1962 and older vehicles, but I have a current Georgia registration in my name. This, along with a bill of sale will allow you to get a title in most title states (including Florida). The car has been off the road since 1977, and has been sitting in the back of a friend's garden for the last 18-20 years. Odometer reads 66572, but I don't know if this is the actual mileage or not. It has factory A/C, power steering and brakes, and automatic transmission. There is heavy rust in the trunk floor, the passenger floor and the radiator core support.. A friend who specializes in Fords looked at it for me and said he thinks the motor has never been apart due to the factory lock tabs on the exhaust manifold bolts. The trim that is missing from the doors and the hood lip moulding are included and are inside the trunk. The car to me appears to be too far gone to restore to original, but would make an excellent parts car or maybe even a rat rod. The previous owner had lost the keys, so I had to open the trunk by going through the back seat area. I removed the lock and it is included with the car. The brakes were stuck, so I have removed the brake hardware from each wheel, and the drums will all need to be replaced. None of the side windows will roll down. Once again, THIS CAR IS SOLD AS A ROUGH PROJECT CAR OR AS A PARTS CAR. It will need to be hauled on a trailer or a rollback due to the condition of the tires and because it has been sitting up for so long. It does roll very easily now for loading. A deposit of $300 is required within 48 hours of auction end, and balance due within 7 days. I will accept a check for balance, but will require 2 weeks to clear before car can be picked up. I may be able to deliver the car up to 250 miles from Statenville, GA 31648 for $2.10/loaded mile. If you want an exact delivery cost, send an exact, complete delivery address. Please email any questions or if you would like to see specific photos of any part of the car. Thanks for looking and for bidding!!!

2022 Rivian R1T vs. 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning vs. GMC Hummer EV Pickup | How they compare on paper
Tue, Sep 28 2021The 2022 Rivian R1T has arrived, ushering in the era of the production electric pickup truck. The Rivian reviews are in, and spoiler alert: They're pretty good. Curious how the new battery-powered truck stacks up to its forthcoming competitors? Well, you've come to the right place. Rivian beat all of Detroit's big automakers to market in the half-ton segment, but probably not by the margin the startup would have liked. Ford's answer is the F-150 Lightning, which is due to enter production early next year, coming hot on the heels of GM's first entry into the space – the GMC Hummer EV pickup – which is scheduled to come off the line late this fall. While all three are pickups, they're aimed at distinctly different buyers, as a perusal of their specifications will reveal. Let's have a look, shall we?  Disclaimer: Before we dive in on this one, we'd like to note that while we've made our best effort to verify the specs provided, the Rivian is brand-new and the others are still in the prototype phase. Some of these figures may be inaccurate or may simply change before production. This is all hypothetical until you can actually cross-shop them anyway, right? Cool. End disclaimer. Let's start with the powertrains. They're all battery-electric trucks engineered on a modular rear-wheel-drive configuration engineered to accommodate (theoretically, anyway) up to four electric drive units. Rivian actually makes the most use of this with a quad-motor setup producing 835 horsepower and 908 pound-feet of torque with its high-output initial model. GMC's three-motor Hummer has the R1T beat with its estimated 1,000-horsepower output, while Ford's (also three-motor) comes in with a far more modest 563 horses. This is an excellent illustration of our above point that these are not all engineered for the same crowd. Ford's F-150, which comes in at a lower price point, is meant to be far more mainstream, as its power output suggests. This theme continues when we look at the dimensions. Despite the image "Hummer" may conjure, GMC's entry actually needs the shallowest parking space. The Rivian is right behind it, with the work-truck-spec Ford extending more than a foot longer than either. What the Hummer lacks in length, it makes up for in girth. It's the widest by a good 5 inches. The Rivian is only slightly pudgier than the F-150, but it's much closer at that end of the scale.
American automakers fall in latest Fortune 500 rankings
Fri, 10 May 2013Not that it means anything beyond bragging rights, but if you're fixated on the positions of domestic automakers on the annual Fortune 500 list, both General Motors and Ford are still on it but they've slipped a couple of notches. The list ranks American companies and they're ordered solely by revenue. GM, fifth last year, came in seventh, while Ford fell from ninth to tenth even though both companies saw small gains in annual revenue.
GM's $152.3 billion in revenue was less than a third of that of the first company on the list: Wal-Mart, which regained the title from Exxon Mobil. Berkshire Hathaway and Apple are the firms that moved GM down. Ford, displaced by energy company Valero, had $134.3 billion in revenue.
On a side note, profitability isn't a factor, but both GM and Ford were down in this year's list compared to last year's: GM declined from $9.2 billion to $6.2 billion, Ford fell from $20.2 billion to $5.6 billion. If profits were included, Exxon Mobil would probably still be king: although the energy company made almost $20 billion less in revenue than Wal-Mart's $469.2 billion, it posted $44.9 billion in profit compared to Wal-Mart's $17 billion.
Ford Mustang SVT caught looking fierce on the 'Ring
Tue, 15 Jul 2014The next-generation Ford Mustang SVT is one of the most anticipated performance cars of the moment. We've already seen it testing multiple times, but it has always been covered is some very heavy camouflage. However, Ford has just given us our best view yet of the new muscle car. According to our spy photographer, the Mustang was at the Nürburgring for high-speed testing, which meant that the Blue Oval had to remove most of the heavy obfuscation that the SVT has worn previously.
The stylish, more revealing camo makes picking out some of the more interesting details about the SVT rather easy. Starting from the front, there is the big hood scoop to feed cold air to its still mysterious engine. You can also immediately make out the model's new grille and lower front air dam. It has a vertical piece running from the bottom of the hood all the way to the ground. The aggressive styling almost gives the 'Stang the look of two fangs ready to bite down. The hood seam is even taped off here, which shows us its outline.
Around the side, it appears that the front and rear fenders are wider than stock, and the sills are certainly much larger. You can also just make out the SVT's bigger brakes behind its black wheels with a polished lip. Finally, at the rear, things appear mostly stock other than the diffuser that the exhaust outlets nestle into.
