1964 2 Door Galaxie 500 Fastback on 2040-cars
Shenandoah, Pennsylvania, United States
|
This is a Kentucky car purchased in 2012 at the Barrett Jackson Auction in West Palm Beach, Florida. It has an upgraded 289cid small block, Top Loader 4 speed transmission, original Galaxie colors, new tires, 9" Ford rear end, factory suspension, dual exhaust, nice chrome and stainless with a straight body. Beautiful example of a vehicle built by Ford to be a high performance racing specifications machine. A larger forebearer to the muscle car. This model year was the fourth and final year of this body style. The formal roof "boxtop" style was replaced by the slanted (fastback) roof design. The exterior features a more sculpted look and was designed to be more aerodynamic for NASCAR. The Galaxie took to the racetracks in serious fashion in 1964 for the purpose of drag racing.
The car's interior underwent a complete restoration in 2012 with year correct seat covers with chrome trim emblems, new foam padding and burlap, new side panels, weatherstripping, new kick panels, and new trunk interior. This vehicle has been garage kept and meticulously maintained. If your looking for a Galaxie or just looking for a MEAN driving machine, your would be hard pressed to find a nicer one!!
Purchase is a Tax Deductible contribution to a scholarship fund in memory of a family memory of the owner. |

Meet Floyd Pullin, 102-year-old honorary president of Ford trucks [w/video]
Wed, 28 Aug 2013When we talk about trucks we often talk about how loyal truck owners are; it's men like Floyd Pullin who provide the proof. The 102-year-old man from Confluence, Pennsylvania has only owned Ford products since the 1920s, and he's done so well by Ford Trucks that the division named him honorary president for a day, not long after he took delivery of his latest ride, a 2013 F-150 STX.
That's the 16th Ford he's owned. If he bought his first when he was 16, he'd have flipped into a new car or truck about every five years. For 86 years. Not a bad run of business for either side.
Ford Trucks made a video to wish Pullin a happy birthday, which was celebrated at his local Ford dealership and was visited by a Pennsylvania state senator. You can watch it below.
2015 Ford F-150 enters production
Wed, 12 Nov 2014Ford has given the F-150 a dramatic makeover for 2015, switching to an aluminum body that helps reduce weight by about 700 pounds. Because the truck is dramatically different, Ford also had to change the way it makes the F-150, so we went inside its sprawling factory in Dearborn, MI, this week to see the Blue Oval's new manufacturing techniques in action.
The company has added 850 jobs at the site and upgraded its stamping and tool and die facilities. The body shop is also modernized, and it has been fitted with 500 new robots that join the structures together. The first 2015 F-150 rolled off the line on Tuesday, and the trucks will begin arriving in dealerships in December. Get a closer look at the F-150's unique assembly process in our video.
Ford ditching Microsoft in favor of BlackBerry QNX for next-gen Sync?
Mon, 24 Feb 2014Ask the average consumer - at least, those who follow the goings-on in the automotive industry - which carmaker they'd most closely associate Microsoft, and the answer you'd most likely get would be Ford. The Blue Oval automaker, after all, was at the forefront of bringing Microsoft technology into cars with its pioneering Sync system, and, though reality didn't turn out as such, Ford's CEO was recently touted as a potential future head of the Redmond-based software giant. But that relationship, according to the latest reports, could be coming to an end.
Alan Mullaly kiboshed the idea of leaving Dearborn for Redmond, but more importantly Ford is tipped to be ditching Microsoft in developing its next-generation Sync system. In its place, Ford is expected to partner with BlackBerry's QNX division.
Now, before you go balking "BlackBerry?! But they're finished!" consider that QNX is (or at least was) an independent entity that Research In Motion (as BlackBerry's Ontario-based parent company was then known) just happened to have bought back in 2010. QNX provides control systems to everything from nuclear power plants and UAVs to automakers like Audi, BMW and Porsche.
