Here's a Gorgeous and Original Galaxie XL Fastback Hardtop from deceasedowner's estate..He was a FOMOCO collector, Mercurys and Fords. And a localneighbor. This is a totally rust-free car built in the Los Angeles plant thathas only 47,998 miles. You can see under the valve cover in photo that there isvery light oil buildup. She has had a nice high quality/ high $ base coat/clearcoat 2 stage paint job that has been color sanded and buffed to a beautifulluster. Car codes for medium blue metallic..code Q. It was hood and rear deck lid, the door jambs and engine bay allpristene and better than factory in my opinion. It has GT rocker stripes andfine double belt line pin striping. The interior has been redone in the factorycorrect Blue(code RB) vinyl with the pebble grain inserts. The door panels areoriginal with no rips,tears but do show some minor fading at top..not bad. Newcarpet and headliner along with the rear shelf have been installed. New doorweather stripping and trunk seals have been installed. original window felts aregood but a brand new set is included still in the box. the trunk is correctfinish with original restored jack.

Also a new and battery.The engine bays is very tidy, clean and presentable. Thevacuum headlight raise and lower as they should along with high and low beam andturn signals. she ha

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Ken Block and friends race light in silly-beautiful Castrol commercial
Wed, 28 May 2014How does one make fast, loud, drifting cars better? Well, you can add more fast, loud, drifting cars or you can add lasers. Either or, really. In this case, Castrol did the right thing and added both, creating a highly stylized commercial for its Edge Titanium motor oil starring South African racer Adrian Zaugg, BMW factory driver Augusto Farfus, Audi DTM and Le Mans staple Mike Rockenfeller and some bloke named Ken Block.
Their cars? No surprise, but Block is in his Ford Fiesta GRC, while Zaugg samples a Lamborghini Aventador and Farfus and Rockenfeller drive along party lines, with a BMW M4 and an Audi R8, respectively. And those cars look good, too, thanks to the creative light and laser work on display.
Take a look below for the video from Castrol.
