1970 Galaxie 500 Spotroof on 2040-cars
Andover, Minnesota, United States
|
This car has been restored inside and out and gets a lot of attention wherever it is. The engine is a 390 that was rebuilt prior to my owning this car. It starts and run great. The front seal on the transmission leaks pretty bad so the transmission will need to be removed and the seal replaced (I would not drive it anywhere until this is fixed). Mileage listed is what is on the odometer, actual mileage is unknown. The tires are like brand new with vintage Craiger SS rims. The rims are in great condition with one small rust spot on one of the rims. The interior is in good condition and appears to be original. The dash has one small crack otherwise it is perfect. The heater/AC control might need to be looked at as it moves but is not very easy. This car has factory AC but the hose has a cut so it is not working. The seats and carpet are in great shape and there is no sign of rust on the body. There are a couple of small imperfections on the paint however they are unnoticeable until you are washing and polishing the car. This is not a car that only looks great from a distance. I have the original build sheet from Ford (see picture). I have posted several pictures to try and show everything about the car and am trying to give you all the information up front so you know what you are getting. Overall this car is in great shape and other than the transmission it is ready to show off. By bidding you are committing to purchase the car so don’t bid if you are not serious. Buyer pays for shipping. $500 deposit via Paypal is required within 48 hours of the auction close and the balance due via Cashiers Bank Check. Delivery can take place after payment has been received. |

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Ford predicts it will finish 2013 as top-selling US brand
Mon, 30 Dec 2013Ford is ready to call the ball on its 2013 sales totals, predicting a first-place finish for units sold in the US for a single brand. The company anticipates selling more than 2.4 million vehicles when all vehicle sales over the last 12 months have been tallied, repeating the victory it trumpeted over Toyota last year.
According to Ford's accounting, it sold 329,677 more vehicles than did Toyota in 2012. This year, the Blue Oval expects that margin to grow; through the end of November, Ford says it has outsold Toyota by 396,041 units.
Retail sales of Ford products are projected to exceed 1.7 million units for 2013 (the best retail result in 6 years for the company), with passenger cars accounting for 600k of that total. The redesigned Fusion is expected to crest the 290k mark, and the Fiesta is said to be ready to hit a model-record of 70k-plus. Meanwhile, utility vehicles and trucks are still paying a lot of bills in Dearborn, with the new Escape racking up an expected 300k sales and F-Series trucks chugging along at 688,810 units sold thru November.
Are you Ford's next Bullitt Mustang? [w/poll]
Thu, 27 Mar 2014Ford has a long history of offering special editions of its legendary Mustang. One of the most vaunted of those trim packages, though, has only been offered twice. The first time was in 2001, and then again in 2008. Yes, we're talking about the Bullitt.
Named for the infamous Dark Highland Green Mustang Fastback driven by Steve McQueen in the 1968 cop melodrama Bullitt, the car was famous for not just its pilot, but the high-speed chase it took part in during the movie. Now, we think we have images of the next Bullitt.
According to our spy photographers, the paint is a "dead-ringer" for the Dark Highland Green that has signified these special edition Mustangs. While we're inclined to agree, it's also worth pointing out that this shade looks very similar to one of the 2015's other new colors, Guard. We've yet to see one on the road (let alone in such dreary conditions), so it's tough to say for certain.
