Gaylord, Michigan, United States
|
This Auction is for a 1961 Ford Galaxie 500 2 door Club Victoria that was assembled in Norfolk, VA. The Odometer shows 51,900 miles and I believe it to be accurate. This car runs & drives but WILL need a restoration to be dependable & safe. The Glass is all original with no cracks, interior code is Red Shimmer & in good condition. The original body color is Raven Black, the body is in good condition with minor bubbling around the rear wheel well area. the Trunk pan has been replaced 20 years ago, floor pan, doors, fenders, hood, frame, trunk lid are ALL SOLID....body looks to have been repainted along time ago and will need to be professionally redone for show quality. This Z code Galaxie 500 retains the 390 HP (375hp) with all the original trimmings.... Carb, Cast Headers, Aluminum intake, 15' wheels, Heavy duty brakes & bigger fuel lines, Valve covers & Air cleaner. The transmission is a 3 speed Manual shift on the column which works fine. This is a RARE car that also retains the Dealer Optional Aluminum TRI POWER setup to give this old HOT ROD 401HP.... that has NEVER been bolted on an engine. These cars were built to race in 1961 and would run the 1/4 mile around 13 sec.!!
Own a piece of racing history with this car!!! I take pride to maintain a 100% Ebay rating as a seller & a Buyer... all details are honest and accurate to the best of my knowledge. - I will not sell the 3x2 intake separate!!!

Mysterious small Ford spied in Germany
Sat, 29 Jun 2013Our spy photographers have just popped off a few shots of something curious. This little runabout was spotted in Germany out testing with a current-generation Ford Fiesta. We're fairly confident the machine is a Ford, but exactly which Ford model is up for debate. The hatchback could be the next-generation Ka, but we've also heard that the Blue Oval supermini might not get a replacement. Our shooter says the five-door is a bit smaller than the current Fiesta, though there is a chance that this rig is just an engineering mule for drivetrain development. Then again, it could be a model built specifically for the South African market or China, or not a Ford at all.
Whatever it is and wherever it's headed, you can check out in the gallery for a closer look before heading into Comments to weigh in with your best guess.
How the Ford Shelby Mustang came to be
Fri, 20 Sep 2013Even 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.
Hurricane Sandy cost automakers 15,000 vehicles, may have ruined up to 200k
Wed, 07 Nov 2012Hurricane Sandy was the largest Atlantic storm in US history, and its total economic impact is just now coming into view. According to Automotive News, Toyota, Chrysler, Nissan and Honda are set to scrap around 15,000 new vehicles ruined by the storm. Nissan alone accounts for about 40 percent of those, with 6,000 Nissan and Infiniti models deeded "un-saleable" due to damage. The company saw 56 dealerships shuttered due to the storm, but 51 of those have since reopened.
Toyota, meanwhile, had some 4,000 vehicles at its Newark port facility, and of those, 3,000 may be scrapped. An additional 825 were dealer inventory when they were ruined. Honda and Acura dealers are reportedly sending 3,440 vehicles to the salvage yard. By comparison, Chrysler weathered the storm fairly well with 825 units destroyed, while Hyundai suffered only 400 lost units and Kia scrapped around 200.
As you may recall, Fisker also suffered some losses, and Automotive News reports the manufacturer saw 320 Karma models damaged beyond repair. Ford and General Motors have yet to come up with estimates, and no automaker has commented on the full cost of replacing the vehicles.
