1964 Ford Country Sedan Wagon on 2040-cars
Keller, Texas, United States
|
Up for auction is my 1964 Galaxie Country Sedan Wagon. This car is the perfect family cruiser and drives extremely well. The whole drivetrain has been restored starting with a fully rebuilt 390. Block was bored and a 390 crank was installed along with new pistons, rings, bearings, heads totally rebuilt, new valves and springs, Comp Cams 280 hydraulic cam and lifters, and Four barrel intake with original rebuilt Autolite carburetor. Motor machine work was done at Charles' Automotive Machine in Arlington. The Cruise o Matic transmission was fully rebuilt at AAAA transmission in Ft Worth with new seals, clutches and bearings. Front end was rebuilt with new lower control arm bushings and a stabilizer bar was added in between the lower control bushings to secure the front end along with all four shocks. Lincoln disc brakes were added with new calipers and pads. Rear brakes were rebuilt with new shoes and new wheel cylinders. The car stops very well. Axle bearings were replaced along with the rear end grease and gasket. Sanderson headers were added along with full dual exhaust, H pipe with Flowmaster mufflers. A new aluminum radiator was used along with a rebuilt power steering pump, control valve, steering cylinder and all new hoses. Gas tank was cleaned and sealed at Kirby's radiator in Ft Worth. The wheels are Boss 338 18" wheels with BF Goodrich Sport Comp 2 tires. The bumpers were re chromed at Quality Bumper in Dallas and are beautiful. Basically the drivetrain is new on this car. I have about 1800-2000 miles on it since everything was new. I drove this car to Austin for the Lone Star Roundup a few months back and it drove exceptionally smooth and well with four of us in it. Body is straight with the exception of a few dings here and there and a small scrape on the drivers fender. There are a few holes in the rear quarter but nothing totally rotten. Floors are very solid with only a few tiny holes in the left rear pan. Glass is good with the windshield having a crack on the far left hand side. Rear seat is very good. front seat foam is good. I have all the factory A/C parts if you want to add them back for air. Car gets many waves and thumbs up and is a lot of fun to drive. You can literally drive this car anywhere you wanted to. Keep the patina look or you can repaint for the perfect car either way. Let me know if you have any questions or want to see it. Car is located in Ft Worth Texas. Thanks for looking!

Ford Fiesta ST orders off to strong start
Fri, 17 May 2013We at Autoblog love the new little Ford Fiesta ST, and apparently, folks in Europe are pretty impressed with it, as well. According to Ford, the automaker's European arm has already logged 3,000 orders for the new hot hatch since it hit dealerships this March. The US-spec car, which will only be available as a five-door, will go on sale in the United States this summer.
What's perhaps most interesting about the Fiesta ST ordering is that the majority of customers appear to be ordering high-spec cars. According to Ford data, 60 percent of customers have opted for the leather interior with Recaro buckets, and 90 percent have selected the upgraded 17-inch wheels (seen on our test car, above). Spirit Blue has been the most popular color, commanding 27 percent of all orders. As for the technology upgrades, 19 percent of customers have ponied up for the Sony stereo with navigation.
To recap, the Fiesta ST is offered with Ford's 1.6-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, putting out 179 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission. We had an absolute blast flinging the hot Fiesta through the French Alps, and we can't wait for this sharp little hatch to make its way over to the States.
Barrett-Jackson 2014: First production 2015 Ford Mustang earns $300k for JDRF [w/video]
Sat, 18 Jan 2014We've almost become immune to the huge dollar amounts that collectible cars earn for charity at Barrett-Jackson. To wit, $300,000 for the first production 2015 Ford Mustang initially didn't seem like very much money. In reality, though, it's probably about 10 times the actual asking price for the car, and we're pleased to report that 100 percent of the proceeds will go to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
According to Ford, the car's winning bidder will get to "choose a fastback with manual or automatic transmission, and any interior, exterior and stripe color combination offered by Ford on the all-new Mustang." Power will come from a slightly revised version of the well-known 5.0-liter V8 engine that will produce "more than 420hp and 396 pound-feet of torque."
We snapped live images of the 2015 Mustang prototype that Ford had on display here at Barrett-Jackson, and you can check them out above. The official auction description, along with a video of the auction as it happened live, is below.
The 2015 Ford Mustang is not so mellow in yellow
Tue, 14 Jan 2014When we first saw the 2015 Ford Mustang, much was made of its new, more expressive color palette, which includes the return of both yellow and orange in addition to a new grayish shade, Guard. At that time, we didn't have anything to look at but a few small scale models painted in the new colors - the only Mustangs on display were in Race Red.
For its auto show debut here at in the Motor City, Ford has trotted out a couple of as-yet-unseen shades, including the striking Triple Yellow shown above. The new shade marks a return to a paint color that enthusiasts have been clamoring for, and we must say, it looks excellent under the lights of Cobo Hall.
Stat wise, there are still a number of questions we have about the redesigned Mustang. None of the three engines have had official power figures published. The same goes for pricing information, although if any loose-lipped execs let something slip in Detroit, we'll be sure to let you know. Until then, have a look at the new Triple Yellow Mustang on display at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.
