I have a 1962 Ford Galaxie 500. I restored it over the winter. It has a 352 Big Block(not original), with a 2 barrel carburetor and a Cruise-O-Matic transmission. Power steering and power brakes. It's column shifted. She runs and drives beautifully and last year she was my daily driver. All the lights, tail lights, and blinkers work.

The brakes are good, tires are REALLY good(about 80-85% tread left). The tranny shifts great. No leaks from anywhere, but the power steering pump is a little whiny. I'm slowly building ambition to put a new one on it. The paint is fresh, but it's not great. It's good, but there is some slight orange peel.

All of the rust has been cut out and I welded in new sheet metal. The wheels and bumpers have been powder coated. The seats were reupholstered less than 3 months ago. The dash was repainted. New carpet. New headliner. The door panels are the ones I got with the car, they're not original. The armrests are still the original brown. The steering wheel is obviously not original, it's a classic Grant wheel I believe. It just makes it feel like you're driving an old hot rod. I disconnected the horn because I absolutely hate the sound of them.

The grille and rear fascia trim were painted black, it gives the car a really nice and aggressive look. I do have the rest of the trim the goes on the wheel wells and on the bottoms behind the rear wheels. All the gauges, dummy lights, air/heat, defrost, wipers, emergency brake, and dome light(I unpugged that though) work. I also bought a new USA-230 Radio for it and a kick panel kit that has speakers in them.

I also pulled the rear window to put a new seal in it and tint the window(5%) and the side windows have 35% tint on them.

There are exactly 4 things this car doesn't have to make it considered completely restored.

1. A trim piece that goes inside behind the rear seat at the bottom of the headliner. All it does is cover the bottom of the headliner where it attaches to the hooks.

2. A trim piece that goes along the bottom sides of the front seat to hide a couple brackets.

3. I don't have a lens for the dome light. It's just the bulb.

4. There is no gas pedal. Just the arm for it. It honestly never bothered me, but I know it should have lol

I am negotiable on the price. It's not firm at all. I am also interested in trading for a Harley, preferably a softail or bagger. I would also do a half trade/half cash. Let me know what you got or any questions. I'm pretty sure I included everything. I DO have a clean title for it. Feel free to call, text, or email day or night. Thanks for looking!

Ford and OMS bring military ride-and-drive program to Hockenheimring

Tue, Jun 9 2015

This post is appearing on Autoblog Military, Autoblog's sub-site dedicated to the vehicles, aircraft and ships of the world's armed forces. It kind of goes without saying, but joining the military means you won't be enjoying quite as much leisure time as members of the civilian world. That said, when a chance to let your hair down does come along, servicemembers usually enjoy some very unique opportunities... like driving a new Ford Mustang and F-150 around Germany's Hockenheimring. Ford and the Overseas Military Sales Corporation, the on-base retailer for the Blue Oval and the same outfit that worked out a raffle program for servicemembers to purchase the limited-edition 50th Anniversary Mustang, put together the ride-and-drive program at Germany's second most famous circuit. The OMS allows military men and women to purchase vehicles for both on-base use and for pickup when they arrive back in the United States. "The Ford Driving Freedom ride-and-drive event is designed to introduce the new 2015 Ford Mustang and F-150 to military personnel who are stationed on US bases across Europe," Ford fleet sales manager Doug Walczak said in the attached statement. "It's the first time such an event has been held overseas." According to Ford, over 300 servicemen and women applied to take part in this pilot program, which was more than double what Ford and OMS had room for. With such an impressive response rate, it's no surprise that similar events could come to other US bases. Scroll down for the official press release from Ford.

New Ford GT to carry $400k-price tag

Thu, Mar 5 2015

The last time Ford made a GT, it built more than 4,000 of them and sold each one for around $150,000. Judging by the premiums at which they later traded, they were evidently worth a lot more than that. But this time, the new Ford GT will be far more expensive and far more scarce. Official performance, production and pricing figures have yet to be released, but upon the new American supercar's European debut in Geneva, Ford performance chief Dave Pericak indicated it would be priced competitively with the Lamborghini Aventador – which carries a base sticker price approaching $400,000, Car and Driver reported. Combine that with production expected to number in the hundreds, not the thousands, and you're not likely to be seeing any of these Blue Oval halo cars in your neighborhood anytime soon. The question then becomes: will the price tag will be justified? With carbon-fiber construction and more than 600 horsepower on tap, it very well could be. And if speculators are going to drive up the actual sale prices, we don't see why Ford shouldn't get what the product is worth. But whether the world is ready for a $400,0000-Ford is another question entirely. Related Video:
