One owner, all original, 1962 Ford Galaxie with only 96,000 actual miles. Equipped with a 292 Y-Block V8 and 3-speed manual transmission with column shift, padded dash, deluxe two-tone white interior. Was driven daily by a woman until 2004 when she quit driving. Regular maintenance and repairs were always done on time and immediately by the same local repair shop in town for the entire life of the vehicle. The car had been sitting until last year when I acquired it. I have buffed and polished the original paint (two-tone burgandy and white top) and it looks really nice for a weathered but clean 'PATINA' look with the two-toned paint faded away but shiny. Throw a coat of wax on it regularly and preserve it for another 20 years. Original hub caps are included although not shown in the pictures. I have ran the engine with an electric transfer pump and a gas can, and it runs like a watch-clean, quiet and smooth as silk. I have overhauled the carburetor and reinstalled it, but have not replaced the fuel filters or the rubber hoses. Therefore I have not ran it on its own fuel tank. It wouldn't hurt to clean the tank first. This car is equipped with a factory optional auxiliary canister fuel filter, so there are two filters. I have also replaced the brake master cylinder, and removed the weathered and worn carpet. I have new fuel filters and new front wheel cylinders that should be installed. The original headliner, door trim panels, sail panels, quarter trim panels, and trunk mat is all intact and in very good condition so I have not removed it. The car will need front seat upholstery, carpet, and the dash pad is cracked. It will need a new ignition lock cylinder or switch but I have correct keys for the car. The right front floor pan is rusted through but easily replaceable and only $67, the driver front floor pan is somewhat rusted but not through the metal. The battery tray is rusted as well. The car will also need a battery. The tires are not road worthy and the left front only holds air for a few days and the right rear only for a few hours. I had hopes of getting the drivetrain all in good working order and driving it, but I am moving and do not have time to fix it and I already have too many vehicles that will be going into indoor storage.

2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid
Thu, 02 May 2013No Prius Killer
As much as we enthusiasts like to rail on the lowly Toyota Prius as the harbinger of death for all we hold dear, there's no denying the machine's absolute and interminable grip on the hybrid hatchback market in the United States. Toyota has so thoroughly sunk its teeth into the segment that you can clearly hear the automaker's incisors clacking against one another with the conclusion of each financial quarter. And there's little wonder why. Buyers can plop down less than $25,000 and have a runabout that can return up to an estimated 51 miles per gallon in the city, leaving every other entry on the market with precious little gristle to gnaw on.
Enter the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid. With its claimed 47 mpg combined, the funky little hatch from Europe already falls behind the 48 mpg city offered by the Prius, but that marginal sacrifice in fuel economy could be a small price to pay for buyers who want a credible alternative to the stalwart Toyota. Unfortunately, like the Fusion Hybrid, the C-Max Hybrid had trouble even approaching its Environmental Protection Agency estimates during our time with the car.
Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
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...
