Ford Galaxie 500 Xl Convertible 1967 on 2040-cars
Schenectady, New York, United States
|
I have owned this car since 2/2011. It has been in my garage when not in use. It is a "25 footer". It looks great from 25 ft. away. It is not a show car. It is a solid runner , on the road and NYS inspected. The 390 motor is powerful and solid, no lifter noise or anything like that. The transmission shifts fine. The interior is newer and in great shape. The top is also newer but the plastic window zipper is not compatible with the top. The installation was done prior to my ownership. The power top mechanics work well. In 3 years of ownership I have had the following items replaced; power brake booster, wiper motor, battery,starter, turn signal lever, flasher,rear brake shoes & drums, axle & bearing seals, u joint.
The tires still have new tire nubbins on them. The floor pans will need to be replaced. I took the car to 2 body shops and they stated that the frame will need work in 3-5 years. There are a few quarter size holes the the frame but it is still solid. All gauges work except the clock & notice there is no radio or antenna. I have no way of knowing what the real mileage of the car is. The car is parked with a battery tender device and always starts right up. When the tender is not in use the battery would be dead after a few weeks so there is leakage somewhere in this almost 50 yr. old car. There is no jack or spare but I think i have a rim and tire they will be included with the sale. Also included is a full size cloth car cover. Please do not waste our time with low-ball offers. I travel a great deal with my work & yet will help any serious prospective buyers questions etc The buyer is fully responsible for pick up. If you want to use 1 of those inspection services I will try to accommodate. Good luck bidding!! |

Europe's most-wanted classic car is... the Ford Mustang?
Sat, 28 Sep 2013Over the span of its 49 years and five generations, the Ford Mustang has held a special place in the hearts of automotive enthusiasts in the US, but, as it turns out, this car is also very popular amongst European car lovers. Earlier this summer, AutoScout24 - a new and used car shopping site in Europe - polled around 75,000 European "car lovers" (not sure how they vetted the respondents) to see which cars were the most popular, and the Mustang came out on top over iconic European classics like the BMW M1 and Volkswagen Beetle.
In the whole of Europe, 37 percent of those polled dream of owning a Mustang, but that number jumps in individual countries like Austria (42 percent) and Spain (41 percent). Rounding out the top five popular classics in Europe are the Mini and Citroën 2CV. Find out which cars made up the rest of the top 10 in the press release posted below.
Ford owns Automotive Loyalty Awards, Audi and Subaru are king of conquests
Thu, 23 Jan 2014Customers are a commodity in the automotive industry, and like any other commodity, automakers trade them back and forth. Only nobody wants to give up their customers - just to keep the ones they have and try to attract others.
That's what the Polk Automotive Loyalty Awards are all about. Every year the industry research body names the automakers, brands and models that manage to keep their customers coming back for more - and attract buyers to switch from other makes. Ford usually does pretty well, but this year it rose above even its own track record.
Not only did Dearborn win the Overall Loyalty to Manufacturer award, but also the Overall Loyalty to Make. Ford also took the African American category, and the F-150 was named the top full-size half-ton pickup in customer loyalty. Ford COO Mark Fields (pictured above) accepted the awards and gave the keynote address at the awards ceremony.
Meet Shelby Mustang GT500 Miller, Iowa's latest hatchet-wielding criminal
Fri, Jul 11 2014Well, we've found the long-lost cousin of yesterday's Bentley-tattooed criminal from Florida. This is Shelby Mustang GT500 Miller. No, seriously. While his name seems just like the sort of thing we'd expect the Sunshine State to produce, he actually hails from Iowa. Despite coming from the Hawkeye State, Miller was arrested for a decidedly Floridian offense – getting in a bar fight and then returning with a hatchet. The only way this story could be more Florida is if meth, a manatee or bath salts were involved. The fight, which was at the Cheap Seats Sports Bar, started off typically enough, with a verbal argument in the parking lot (please, please let his nemesis be named "Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Smith"). This, naturally, attracted passing police officers. Things were broken up and some friends took Miller to his home, which was apparently just behind the bar. That's when he returned with the hatchet tucked under his shirt. Miller promptly proceeded to take out the implement of destruction in the bar's bathroom and... forget about it entirely. Fortunately, the police hadn't left the area yet. Not surprisingly, Miller was arrested for a parole violation, as well as public intoxication and going armed with intent. Still, cool name, bro.
