This is my brother's 1967 Ford Galaxie 500 Convertible. Most of the mechanicals have been repaired/replaced or rebuilt. It has a 390 FE motor that has been rebuilt it has an Edelbrock carburator and intake, headers, mild cam and custom exhaust that sounds great. The side frame rails have been replaced and the frame was media blasted and painted. It will need floorpans especially rear pans. Nothing was done to the body but almost 20K was spent on the frame/engine and drive train. A power brake booster was added to the car as well. This has the potenial to be a truly terrific car with just the body/cosmetic things that remain. The car is also listed locally and we reserve the right to cancel the auction at anytime. Please do not ask what the reserve is, I mentioned earlier that there is almost 20k worth of money spent on this car. Please contact Tom for more information @ 513-307-3445 . Thank you.

Tanner Foust tackles 'Ring in SVT Raptor

Sat, 16 Mar 2013

Here's a math problem: if Tanner Foust has a 24 hours to kill in Germany and one blue Ford Raptor, how long will it take him to decide he wants to lap The Nürburgring? Extra credit if you can get your answer precise to the millisecond.
A very truck-like and slidey lap of the 'Ring is exactly what happened when the Ford-sponsored rallycross driver took time off from set-up duties for his 'day job.' Thankfully no one even thought to worry about posting a time, but you can watch some Raptor skid marks getting laid down between the kerbs in the video below.

Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with

Mon, 12 May 2014

Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.
