THIS AUCTION IS FOR A SOUTHERN 1964 FORD GALAXIE 500 4 DOOR VEHICLE.I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE TO RESTORE AND THEN REALIZED THAT I DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO GIVE IT THE TLC IT NEEDS. THIS VEHICLE HAS PRETTY MUCH ALL THE ORIGINAL PIECES OF TRIM WITH IT , INCLUDING THE FORD HUB CAPS. THE PARTS ON THIS 50 YEAR OLD VEHICLE ARE IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE. THE DOORS AND DOOR PANELS LOOK GREAT AS WELL.SOME SMALL RUST PARTS FROM SITTING. I TRIED TO GIVE YOU THE BEST SHOTS OF THE FRONT, BACK AND SIDES . NO MAJOR DENTS. THE TRUNK KEY IS MISSING AND I WILL GET A LOCKSMITH TO OPEN IT AND MAKE A KEY FOR IT FOR THE BUYER. THE PERSON I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED IT FROM TOLD ME THAT THE ENGINE DOES RUN AND IS NOT FROZEN. AL IN ALL IT'S VALUE IS SECURED WITH THE PARTS ALONE BECAUSE OF THEIR CONDITION. SO I AM SELLING IT AS A PARTS CAR AND "AS IS". I DO HAVE A LOUISIANA TITLE IN MY NAME FOR IT. THE ODEMETER ACTUALLY READS 10,158 MILES AND I EXPECT IT HAS TURNED OVER AND COULD BE 110, 581 MILES OR MORE.

Check out Ford's fully automated self-parking car [w/video]
Wed, 09 Oct 2013As automakers continue to find uses for autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicle technology, Ford of Europe has announced that it is developing a self-parking system for future use. More advanced than the Active Park Assist already offered in many Ford products, the new Fully Assisted Parking Aid can take full control of the vehicle and can navigate angled and perpendicular parking spots.
While today's Active Park Assist can only parallel park with the driver controlling the gas, brake and gear selection, Fully Assisted Parking Aid can operate steering, gas, brake and gear selection all while making sure the car is properly parked in the intended space. As with APA, the driver pushes a button to make the car look for a proper spot (at speeds of up to 18 miles per hour), and when an adequate space is located, the operator pushes another button (either inside the car or outside via remote control) for the car to park itself - the button must be pressed throughout the whole parking maneuver. Even though Ford says that the car can effect gear selections on its own, the system must still start from Neutral, and the automaker isn't saying whether the car can put itself into Park when done or put itself in Drive when the operator is ready to go.
Ford is also taking the opportunity to announce its new Obstacle Avoidance technology. This automated system is able to detect objects - including pedestrians - in the road, warn drivers of said objects and, if needed, stop and steer automatically to avoid hitting the obstacle. Both systems are still in the prototype phase, so there is no word as to when we could see either on a production vehicle.
Project Ugly Horse: Part VI
Thu, 21 Mar 2013Solid axle? What solid axle?
I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation.
This should not have gone this easily. Having a long and checkered history of simple projects punctuated by much wailing and gnashing of knuckles, I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation when I finally decided to lay hands on the '89 Mustang with the goal of relieving the car of its stock rear axle. Instead, it took less than a full morning's worth of work to carve the old 7.5-inch solid axle from its moorings and mock up something, well, different.
Bill Ford op-ed argues we can't just build and sell more of the same cars
Thu, 10 Jul 2014It's hardly a secret that the auto industry is undergoing an enormous, tectonic shift in the way it thinks, builds cars and does business. Between alternative forms of energy, a renewed focus on low curb weights and aerodynamic bodies, the advent of driverless and autonomous cars and the need to reduce the our impact on the environment, it's very likely that the car that's built 10 years down the line will be scarcely recognizable when parked next to the car from 10 years ago.
Few people are as able to explain the industry's many upcoming changes and challenges as clearly as William Clay Ford, Jr., better known as Bill Ford. The 57-year-old currently sits as the executive chairman of the company his great-grandfather, Henry Ford, founded over 110 years ago.
In an op-ed piece in The Wall Street Journal (subscription required), Ford explains that the role of automakers is, necessarily, going to change to suit the needs of the future world. That means changing the view of not just the automobile, but the automaker. As Ford explains it, automakers will "move from being just car and truck manufacturers to become personal-mobility companies."
