1964 Ford Galaxie 500 XL convertible. This Galaxie XL is a very strong example of mid-60s muscle. She has a professionally rebuilt, bored out, 390 engine with 2 x 4 barrel Edelbrock carburetor's. She also has a rebuilt top loader four speed transmission. She runs beautifully, but still needs some additional work. The work needed would be a new paint job, some wiring attention and a few minor repairs to make her perfect. The wiring would deal with the accessories and the dash lights. I would consider this car to be a class II Galaxie. The low reserve price reflects the work needed. Class I 1964 Galaxies sell for $25,000. My reserve is much lower. Accessories: Correct bumper guards, both front and rear, working spotlight, Fomoco AM/FM radio, cast iron Ford “shorty” headers, Rotunda tachometer, lake pipes, padded dash, deep dish wire wheel covers, seat belts, and 1964 license plates registered to the car.All these accessories are correct to this year Ford. I also have, but have not installed, a rear deck radio antenna, an emergency brake warning light. History: I built this car less than two years ago. The body came from Oklahoma and is now in California so there isn’t a spot of rust. I have a complete pictorial and video history of the build. The build included new tires, brakes, clutch, shocks, exhaust system, and rear leaf springs. She also has new carpet, door panels and a new top with a glass rear window. There is less than 3000 miles since the build. Summary: I lost my lease on the garage I used to store this car and work on it. If you’re looking for a car that you can cruise and enjoy now and continue to tinker with, this is your car. Oh yea, one other thing ; SHE’S FAST! |

Ford Mondeo classes up with premium Vignale trim
Wed, 11 Sep 2013Back in the day, Vignale was a carrozzeria of the highest order, alongside the likes of Pininfarina, Bertone and Zagato. But like Giugiaro-ItalDesign and Ghia, it has since been subsumed into a larger auto group. Ford ended up with it under its umbrella when it took over De Tomaso, and has since used the moniker for a number of concept cars. Now the name is back in the form of a new upscale sub-brand for the European market.
The first new model to receive the Vignale treatment is the Mondeo, which Ford unveiled here at the Frankfurt Motor Show in both sedan and wagon forms. Positioned above the Titanium trim, the Vignale model gets such special touches as chrome trim and a quilted leather interior, Vignale badges replacing any mention of the Mondeo on which it's based. It also gains an ownership experience - including free car washes for life! - to befit the upscale positioning.
Under the bright spotlights above the show floor, the Nocciola metallic brown paint might not be the most photogenic, but will likely give the Vignale edition a more premium look when it hits European dealers and roads in 2015. Whether it'll be worth however much Ford asks for it, however, remains to be seen. Scroll down below for the official press release.
NHTSA opens investigation into Ford Explorer PI brakes
Wed, 27 Aug 2014This year more than most, it's pleasant when we can string together a few days without word of an automaker or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announcing a bunch of new recalls. It's seemingly been a little quiet on this front lately (barring a spider-related Suzuki issue revealed early today), but now we have word of the government safety agency opening a Preliminary Evaluation into the 2013 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor, a probe that could potentially affect an estimated 20,000 vehicles.
The issue being investigated concerns failures of the front brake hose on the vehicle that show "small splits in the hoses near the body side ferrule of the hose assembly," according to the agency, and the issue could result in longer stopping distances. The feds have reports of 13 malfunctions affecting 11 Explorer units. However, it's important to note that all of the incidents come from a single, unnamed metropolitan police fleet that operates 46 of them. According to The Detroit News, the failures generally took place between December and July.
NHTSA is investigating further to find if this is a more widespread issue than just this one fleet. Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker confirmed to us, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the agency's report.
Old vs. new debate gets new life with $25,000 Fiesta ST vs. E46 M3 showdown
Fri, 10 Jan 2014You know who you are. There's probably a few of you reading; the ones that say, "Why would I spend $27,000 on a new Mazda MX-5 when I could get a used Chevrolet Corvette with more power." Yes, we're talking to you, used car proponents. While it is a fair argument, it's not like used cars don't come with drawbacks of their own, though.
In an attempt to put this new-versus-used argument to bed once and for all, Matt Farah of the The Smoking Tire has picked up a pair of $25,000 cars - a used, but lightly modified, 2003 BMW M3 and a 2013 Ford Fiesta ST. Naturally, there's a comparison.
Farah, as he's wont to do, does get into the nitty gritty of what each car is like to drive, and discusses the merits of used and new-car shopping. But as he rightly points out while testing the M3, "So, it is a good car. But like any used car, it really does depend on the individual car."
