Hi, I’m selling my 1961 Ford Galaxie Sunliner Convertible. Very “RARE” and highly collectable car. One year
only made with the 1961 Galaxie Sunliner being the last year of the “TAIL FINS,” “TURBINE LOOKING REAR
TAILLIGHTS” and bunch of other special touches that were made to this model back in the day. This car was frame
off restored a few years back to factory specs and enjoyed every single mile that was put on ever since.
It features a rare color combo Corinthian White exterior and factory 2 tone white on red interior, and new carpet
was installed during the restoration. It has a 292 “Y” block Ford Thunderbird Special engine with an auto
trans, power steering, aluminum 3 core radiator, new gas tank, new fuel lines, new brake lines, all new front end
(upper & lower control arms, ball joints, idle arms, inner / outer tire rods all the bushings, etc...), new front
to back dual factory specs exhaust etc..
Floors, trunk pan and quarters are super solid, no patch panels all original steel in mint condition. Interior is
mint with no rips tears or cuts, new powered convertible top with zip down back window. All glass and stainless is
in excellent condition. Paint is just as good as show quality with normal wear. Comes with chrome side skirts,
original bumper jack, spare tire, and original style trunk liner as you see in the pictures.
Fully working gauges, original AM radio, original clock, lights(low and high beam), blinkers, rear tail lights,
reverse lights, wipers, original heater, etc...After market Pioneer radio was installed in the glove box with USB
connection for iPod and Bluetooth compatibility for any smart phone. New Undercover II Speakers were installed
under the front seat, and the tweeters were upgraded to O Zone tweeters. To get max performance out of it all an
amp was added under the back seat. All panels remain original and nothing in the car was cut to install the
aftermarket radio and speakers. If you wish to remove it, it can be done in less than 10 min.
The car has 60,xxx original miles on the body and less then 2k miles on the engine and trans since restoration. I
am the second owner of the car, it was looked after and pampered since day one. Comes with original bill of sale
from the dealership, warranty card and other misc. papers from the time of the purchase from 1961.
Car runs and drives flawlessly. Always turns heads and draws crowds where ever I go.

Chrysler called out over lackluster Ram Runner by racer who helped develop it
Fri, 11 Apr 2014Fans of off-roading and desert blasting might recall that Chrysler offers an aftermarket conversion that can turn a Ram 1500 into a road-legal desert racer, called the Ram Runner. The kit, sold through Mopar, includes some significant suspension upgrades, body tweaks and a brawnier cat-back exhaust for the truck's 5.7-liter V8.
Considering all of this, comparisons with the almighty Ford F-150 SVT Raptor are common. Among the off-road community, that makes these two a sort of Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang for people that prefer driving on dirt. In the Race-Dezert forum, the discussion as to which truck was better was proceeding as normal - Ram fans said their piece and Ford fans said theirs. Then, a man named Kent Kroeker offered up his two cents.
See, Kroeker is a Baja racer, and the man that helped develop the Ram Runner. Despite his association with the truck, though, he had some less than kind words for Chrysler and the Ram Runner.
Has the auto industry hit peak hybrid?
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Hybrids are known for their great fuel economy and low emissions, but it looks like given current market conditions, only about three percent of new car consumers are willing to pay the premium for them. A new study from IHS/Polk finds that the hybrid market share among overall US auto sales are falling, despite more models with the technology on sale than ever before.
The study examined new car registrations in March from 2009 through 2014. In that time, the auto industry grew from 24 to 47 hybrid models available to consumers, but market share for the powertrain remained almost stagnant in that time. As of 2009, hybrids held 2.4 percent of the market; it fell slightly to 2.3 percent in 2010 and grew to 3.3 percent in 2013. However, 2014 showed a drop back to 3 percent. Overall hybrid sales have been growing since 2010, but they just aren't keeping up with the total auto market.
According to IHS/Polk, this isn't what you would expect to see. Usually, each new model in the market brings along with it a boost in sales. The growth in hybrid models 2009 to 2014 should have shown a larger increase in share for the segment.
