For Sale is a 1963 Ford Galaxie 500 2Dr convertible. It has a clear Michigan title. I don't know it's history, but understand it was a barn-find in Virginia. It has a 352 V-8 engine that sometime in the past was bored-out to a 390 CID. It is a manual transmission - 3 speed shifter in the steering column. Manual steering and manual brakes. It has a new convertible top, which operates by power.

In the last year, it has received new piston rings, push rods, all new gaskets and seals, new timing chain and sprockets, rebuilt transmission, new generator and voltage regulator, new starter, new fuel pump, new gas tank and sending unit, tune-up with points/condenser/cap/spark plugs, carburetor rebuild, new thermostat, shifting linkage rebuild, spring suspension supports, and brake master cylinder and wheel cylinders rebuild. The car runs well, and drives like a dream. Older dual exhaust on NOS exhaust manifolds sounds great. A larger radiator was installed sometime in the past. Holley 2 BBL carb.

It has an older body restoration, the paint shines nicely, but there are some imperfections, the trim is all attached, but not in perfect shape. There is some rust-through on a lower rocker panel, and a little rust on the floor board. The tires have great tread, but are several years old and do show some signs of cracking in the sidewalls. Interior appears to be original. Seats have no holes or tears, the door panels and side panels are a little worn, but everything is there and in OK shape. All of the glass is in great shape, and the windows all operate freely. Headlights, wipers, turn signals, speedometer and odometer work. The odometer shows 61,000+ miles, but I have no way of knowing if that's accurate.

This car is fun to drive. I've tried to list as much information as possible, please don't hesitate to ask questions. This car has no warranty, and is being sold as is. It is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to close the auction early if it does sell. I have posted a few pictures.

Good Faith Deposit of $500 is required within 48 hours of close of the auction. Final payment within 10 days. Funds will be cash or PayPal only. Transportation at the buyer's expense.

Mulally will stay close to Ford after he steps down, plans to advise Fields [w/video]

Fri, 27 Jun 2014

Ford CEO Alan Mulally has less than a week left in his role of leading the Blue Oval before he hands off duties to Mark Fields on July 1. It doesn't look like Mulally is going to be shuffling off into his retirement anytime soon, though. The 68-year-old is being rather secretive about his next move, but he tells Bloomberg in a recent interview that he plans to stay close to Ford. Also, if Fields wants to ask for any advice, Mulally is happy to help.
Mulally took over at Ford in 2006 and led the company through a seriously rough patch in the auto industry. According to Bloomberg, he became famous or his Thursday meetings where executives were forced to deal with any problems before they could leave. Since announcing his retirement from Ford in May, Mulally has been insuring a smooth transition of power by traveling the world to all of company's major locations and saying goodbye to employees and dealers.
In terms of the future at Ford, Mulally doesn't predict any big changes in management style because the rest of the executive team is staying in place. He believes that Fields is going to maintain the processes already in place to keep things going. After all, it seems to be working. The company is predicting a return to profitability in Europe next year and is opening 88 new dealers in China. If the business could get its recalls under control, things could get even better.
