1959 Ford Fairlane Galaxie 500 - 2 Door on 2040-cars
Richland, Washington, United States
|
This is my 1959 Ford Fairlane Galaxie 500 project with a fuel injected 302 and T-5 manual transmission. The car runs and drives, I drove it around town this past summer but due too running out of garage space I am forced to sell it. Will not take much to complete the build or a great starting point for a full restoration. This is not a pile of rust!
Everything from this swap is from my 93 Mustang 5.0. The engine is a fuel injection 302 V8. Transmission is a newer manual Ford Racing T-5 with 60k miles. The mustang wiring harness was used in parallel with the 59 accessory harness. The in tank fuel pump was modified to fit in the original 59 tank. Originally the car had a 223ci inline 6 with a 3 speed 3 on the tree manual transmission. It has been in the family for about 9 years now. I kept everything that I took off the car in case I ever wanted to go back to stock. The engine and transmission are in good condition and will be included with the car if the winning bidder would like them, along with all of the other parts I removed for the swap. The body is in good shape for the age but it is not a show car. Looks good from 20 ft. I believe the interior is original, and in good shape except for a few holes in the back headliner. Has a newer carpet kit. There are spots of rust in the usual areas, floor board and in the trunk, If you would like to come by and look at the car before bidding contact me and we can set up a time. |

2013 Ford F-150 Limited
Mon, 28 Jan 2013The Ford F-150 received yet another new model for the 2013 model year, the Limited trim, bringing the ways you can order this country's most popular vehicle to a grand total of 10. There really is an F-150 to suit any need now, and the Limited variant slots in at the very top of the range, above the already pampering Platinum model.
While normally I would admit that I'm the least-appropriate person to test a pickup, the fact that this particular trim places a much higher premium on luxury than anything with a bed and Blue Oval badge before it means that I don't need the workman chops of a skilled tradesman to judge how well this truck meets its true aim.

Tanner Foust gets eponymous hotted-up Ford Focus ST from Cobb Tuning
Thu, 14 Mar 2013Racer and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust has partnered up with Cobb Tuning to create a special-edition Ford Focus ST. The limited-edition hatches will come packing a reflashed ECU, special intercooler, tweaked intake and freer-flowing exhaust for up to 20 percent more power than the stock creation. Cobb says that the changes should push the final dyno figure to above 300 horsepower. Buyers can also expect to find special carbon fiber aerodynamic bits on board along with a new grille, graphics and wheels. Cobb hasn't released pricing on this Tanner Foust Edition Ford Focus ST as of yet, but you can bet the whole kit won't be cheap.
Fortunately, the company will sell you bits and pieces from the overall package for your Ford, and word has it engineers are also whipping up a Foust Fiesta ST. Look for Cobb's Focus ST website to go live next month, complete with accurate specs and pricing. Until then, enjoy clicking through the gallery here. You can also check out the full press release below.
Ford Fiesta ST customs get wild at SEMA
Tue, 05 Nov 2013The massive 57-car SEMA showcase by Ford ranges from obvious aftermarket-friendly models like the Mustang, to the not so obvious ones, like the Transit Connect and cute-as-an-explosive-button Fiesta ST. Ford plucked several Fiesta STs for SEMA duty, and we were on the show floor today to get a closer look at some of them.
First up is the striking COBB Tuning and Tanner Foust Racing Fiesta ST (above) finished in a black-and-gray digital camouflage, much like that used in the military, and is meant to raise awareness for the Pat Tillman Foundation. COBB also fitted a three-inch exhaust and a cold-air intake. A new shift knob, carbon-fiber hood and a Kicker stereo round out the mix of upgrades.
MRT got its hands on a Fiesta ST and created a car inspired by Forza Motorsport 5 (below, left). Featuring a two-tone paint job and more performance upgrades than you can shake a stick at, this Fiesta ST is one of the cooler compacts at Ford's stand. A high-performance exhaust system, along with a complimentary COBB induction system, allows the ST to breathe better, while an H&R coil over suspension and Steeda brakes help it stop and turn better than stock.
