I'm reluctantly selling my 1962 Ford Galaxie. I don't have the space to keep it, nor the time or resources to improve it and give it the good life it deserves.
It's a great car that I'd drive anywhere and have put a ton of trouble-free miles on. Details: Engine/trans.: Rebuilt roller cam 302 and world class Mustang T5. Engine has about 20-25k miles on rebuild. Has Trickflow Stage 1 roller cam, Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, Edelbrock 600 carb w/ electric choke. Mustang shorty headers, 2-1/2" exhaust w/ H-pipe, Flowmaster mufflers. Factory 9" rear w/ 3.70 gears. Gets 20-21 mpg on the highway. Slight driveline vibration over 65 mph that I believe may be caused by a bent axle. The reason I think this is the fact that I've put three left axle bearings in the car during the past 50k miles. I had planned on replacing the left axle, just haven't gotten to it yet. Suspension: RideTech airbag system. Airbags front and rear with electronic 4-way control. Front bags replaced coil springs, shocks relocated behind A-arms. Front suspension was completely rebuilt about 30k miles ago, including the steering box. Front spindles are Ford Granada with disc brakes - less than 5k miles on front brake components. Master cylinder is a disc/drum unit, also from a Ford Granada. Manual brakes, manual steering. Rear is factory leaf springs with two leaves removed on each side, 2" lowering blocks installed, and 'helper' type airbags installed. Compressor, air tank, valves, and pressure sending units are all mounted in the trunk. Wheels/tires: Wheels are chrome OEM type with WWW radial tires. Tires have approximately 5k miles on them. Body: Floor and trunk floor are solid. Exterior is showing rust in a few spots. I had fixed some rust spots eight years ago and they are showing again. The repairs never got sealed up on the backside, so moisture has crept through and the spots need repaired again. None of it is major, but worth mentioning -- See Photos. Primer/sealer is a PPG custom mix, applied eight years ago. Roof candy/flake/clear was done about seven years ago. Bumpers were rechromed about six years and are in very good condition. The rest of the chrome/trim on the car is in good driver condition. Interior/Glass: Mostly original. The carpet is the only thing that has been replaced - done about eight years ago. Front seat could be recovered and have some of the foam replaced. I consider the rest of the interior to be in good driver-quality condition. Windshield and seal were replaced about seven years ago. Windshield has a small crack in it - not bad, not in driver's sight-line. Passenger door glass has slight cloudiness, the rest of the glass is in good condition. CD stereo in glovebox with remote and four speakers. I have explained everything to the best of my knowledge and the car is sold as-is. I love driving this car and would love to keep it, but I can't. It's time for someone else to enjoy it. |

Ford leads top searched-for car brands on Google in 2014
Mon, Dec 22 2014With less than two weeks until 2014 takes its final bow, anyone and everyone is looking back on the past 50 or so weeks to see how they stacked up. For search giant Google, that means its time to check out its annual Trends report. Besides the most popular search term (the late, great Robin Williams), the most searched for gadget (the iPhone 6) and most searched for disease symptoms (quite worryingly, Ebola took the crown here), we have the most searched for automaker. With the long-awaited sixth-generation of one of America's most iconic vehicles, the Mustang, and a ground-breaking update for the US market's perennial best seller, the F-Series, it should come as no surprise at all that Ford was Google's most searched for automaker in 2014. Jeep captured second place, while Dodge, took third. We suspect introducing a pair of cars with 707 horsepower had something to do with that bronze medal... Scroll down to see the rest of this year's most searched for automakers, and then head into Comments and let us know if you're surprised by any of these. This content is hosted by a third party.

Ford supports bid for Detroit Rallycross race with Motown-minded Fiesta ST vid
Mon, 01 Jul 2013As Ford continues its cheerleading effort to help bring the 2014 Summer X Games to its hometown of Detroit, MI, it has released footage of its 2014 Fiesta ST Rallycross car on location at some of the city's well-known landmarks. This video appears to have been shot around the same time as the previous X Games Detroit video was made, but it focuses 100-percent on rally car action.
With Ford Racing driver Andreas Eriksson behind the wheel, this Fiesta ST lays down some serious rubber atop Detroit's Cobo Hall parking structure, at Belle Isle and around the Michigan Central Depot. Detroit isn't alone in the bid for a three-year X Games contract as Chicago, Austin and Charlotte are also hoping to play host. The winning host city is expected to be announced this summer. Scroll down for Ford's two-minute video showing the Fiesta ST Rallycrossing through the Motor City.
Court puts kibosh on apartheid lawsuit against Ford, Daimler
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Ford and Daimler have scored a major victory in a long-running lawsuit filed in US federal court by unnamed South African nationals. The suit alleges that both manufacturers and their subsidiaries sold their vehicles to the South African military, despite knowing that they'd be involved in violently putting down anti-apartheid protesters.
According to Reuters, South African plaintiffs filed the case under the 223-year-old Alien Torts Statute, a law which allows foreign nationals to file charges in US courts for perceived breaches of what was originally international law, but now more closely relates to violations of human rights.
And while the case - which also involves computer manufacturer IBM - has been tied up in federal courts for years, a recent case from the Supreme Court struck down a similar suit against Royal Dutch Petroleum (Shell), arguing that the ATS doesn't apply to corporations or to conduct if it occurred outside the US. In short, the law applies to individuals, but not corporations like Ford or Daimler. A US appeals court ruled that the conditions apply in this case, potentially drawing this long-running saga to a close, as the defendants will now be allowed to request that the case be dismissed in district court.
