Classic FORD Convertible
1970 LTD XL - can not find 'Galaxie' anywhere on it, but I think it is? I'm sure that most of you would know more about that than me.
Belonged to my late father - he loved this car. He had the 390 motor bored for more horsepower - I don't have the specs on that. He did race it at the local drag strip once or twice, though. It runs great. Starts well. Buyer would need to bring their own battery, as we have swapped in one from a tractor here. Odometer reads 12991 - so I am fairly sure that means 112,991 miles. It is an automatic.
Body is in very good condition so far as I can tell. The paint is still shiny. There are a couple of small knicks; there is a scrape on the edge of the hood; I have a photo posted of that area. The chrome is starting to get some light surface rust. The tailpipes have surface rust.
The interior is also good. White leather; black carpet. The knobs on the rear window cranks are there, but not attached. Some light discoloration on the white leather; see interior photos.
He had added a cassette player and speakers.
The convertible top works very well. It is in fairly good condition; no leaks that I have noticed. The rear corners - at the base of the window - are torn - there is a photo of the window. There is a spot that looks like oil towards the back of the top - there is a photo of the spot.
Clear PA title.
Please feel free to ask any questions or make an offer.
Buyer must pay within 7 days of auction end.
Thank you.

Ford S-Max Concept previews new look, technology for Euro seven-seater
Wed, 28 Aug 2013Ford unveiled today the S-Max Concept, which comes with a new, sleek look and loaded with innovative technology, such as a heart-rate monitoring seat. But if you're heart is set on a minivan sports activity vehicle (SAV) and you live in the States, don't wait for this one - it's a Europe-only product, and we don't expect that to change when the next-gen S-Max is released.
The styling follows Ford's global design language, looking a bit like an overgrown Focus hatchback with the company's signature grille, wraparound headlamps, steeply raked windshield and curved roof line. Ford also implemented details to make the S-Max look longer and faster, such as a feature line on each side of the vehicle and muscular-looking fenders. The engine isn't Ford's most powerful, but the new 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine should be potent enough with turbocharging and other efficiency related technologies.
Ford says the new interior, which seats up to seven people, features high-quality materials and fine detailing, such as an "ultra-soft" leather wrap for the instrument panel and leather and carbon-fiber details on the seats. Ford's Sync connectivity system with MyFord Touch makes the car a wireless hotspot, and there's a tablet docking station for second-row occupants.
A closer look at the 2015 Ford F-150
Thu, 16 Jan 2014Despite having to share Ford's Detroit Auto Show stand with the hot new 2015 Mustang, the brand-new F-150 was arguably an even more important debut. Why? Ford moved some 700,000 examples of its F-Series truck in 2012, making it not only the best-selling pickup truck, but the top-selling vehicle in the US, by a long-shot.
The 2015 F-150 raises the bar for pickup trucks in a big way, with big-time use of aluminum. Because of this, roughly 700 pounds have been removed from the truck's overall weight, making it even more efficient than before, while still offering all of the capability that pickup owners expect. And with a host of engines under the hood, including a new 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6, the 2015 F-150 will surely offer something for everyone.
During the Detroit Auto Show, west coast editor Michael Harley took a closer look at the new F-150, talking to some of the truck's engineers. Have a look at the full video, below.
GM also sheds parts from its pickups to boost payload ratings
Thu, 31 Jul 2014The row between Ford and Ram over who boasts the best-in-class tow rating for heavy duty pickups has revealed a number of things. Chief among them is a report that Ford removes items like the spare tire, jack, radio and center console from its vehicles in a bid to lower its base curb weight and therefore keep the truck's gross vehicle weight rating down.
For those that need a refresher, GVWR is the vehicle's curb weight plus its maximum payload. A lower GVWR allows Ford to station its F-450 among the so-called Class III pickups, despite the fact that internally, it has the makings of a more brutish Class IV truck.
Ford explains away these deletions, saying a customer could order their vehicle in such a manner. It has also come to light that Ford is not the only automaker to engage in such practices.
