I have a 1966 Ford Galaxie, Custom 500, 4 door, Automatic with a 289ci motor.  It could possibly be a 302ci.  The VIN says it's a 289, but the air cleaner that came on it says 302 as you can see by the picture.  I haven't checked.  I bought this as a project car for my son, but neither of us have the money or time to put in to it.  I hate to see it just sit around and deteriorate.  When I bought it I had to have it towed to the house.  However, I have since worked on it and it does run fair.  It starts right up and will sit and idle and I can put it in gear and move it around as I need to.  I currently have the gas tank unhooked from the fuel pump because I don't know how long it had been sitting.  I put a new fuel pump on it and I I didn't want any bad gas to get into it.  I just drop the fuel hose in a bottle or can of gas to move it where I need to.  I DO NOT drive it out on the highway, but I can drive it up and down the street.  I really hate to get rid of it, but my son needs a car he can drive on a daily basis.  Not sure on the mileage reading.  As you can see it says 24,438.  Probably more like 124,438 or 224,438.  There are several parts in the trunk.  If you have any questions feel free to ask.  If you want a picture of something specific or want me to send you a video of it running or moving, just let me know.  THANKS FOR LOOKING!

Hear the 2015 Mustang GT V8 roar for the first time

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

Our combined knowledge of the 2015 Ford Mustang continues to deepen, as spy shooters have begun to compile video and audio of the upcoming sixth-generation car.
Case in point is this latest series of video clips, which not only gives us a great vantage point of the Mustang in motion, but also allows us to hear the Ford V8 engine and exhaust. After perusing the aural delights of this short video, which, admittedly, doesn't catch the Mustang GT at full song, we can at least say that the throaty exhaust isn't disappointing.
Chances are good that the 2015 Mustang GT will debut with some version of the current (and excellent) Coyote 5.0-liter V8 engine, though we're unclear as to whether or not the motor has been massaged for its next-gen debut, or what may have been done to exhaust plumbing. At this point, we're just happy to hear the pony run. Scroll below to hear for yourself.

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a track-day weapon with 500 hp

Mon, 17 Nov 2014



Ford promises more than 500 horsepower and a torque peak above 400 lb-ft.
The wait is finally over. After months of spy shots, rumor and innuendo, Ford has officially pulled the wraps off its new Shelby GT350. Judging by the spec sheet and the promises being made - especially that the Shelby GT350 will be "an all-day track car that's also street legal" - the wait appears to have been worth it.

How the Ford Shelby Mustang came to be

Fri, 20 Sep 2013

Even as rumors swirl that the next-generation of high-performance Ford Mustang will drop the Shelby name, Ford has released a short video telling how the legend of the Shelby Mustang came to be. In its latest installment of its video series entitled Mustang Countdown, Ford dug up some footage from Carroll Shelby to give a little insight into how this automotive icon was created.
While it's definitely interesting to hear the late legend tell the story in his own words (including numerous references to the 1964 Mustang as a "secretary's car"), it's also pretty funny learning exactly how the Shelby GT350 got its name in the first place - a name allegedly making a comeback as the replacement for the current Shelby GT500. As development work continues on the 2015 Ford Mustang, the Shelby video posted below shows that the automaker is always looking at its past - even as it looks ahead to the future.
