For sale is a very rare, all original 1963 Ford Galaxie 500 XL "G Code" Box Top. This car feature's a 406 Tri Power, factory cast iron headers, AM/FM radio, Sun Tach and factory tinted glass. The car was built in November of 1962 where it was sold in Hawthorn California. This car was a California/New Mexico all its life until it was recently brought to Canada. There is absolutely no rust to speak of. Being a "G Code" this '63 Galaxie is powered by the 406 with a tri power, 3x2 carb system. It is also equipped with a 4 speed transmission. A 4 Speed transmission came in all 406 Galaxies. The engine and transmission are numbers matching right down to the carbs being original and matching to the engine. The engine was rebuilt 12k miles ago. The engine is very strong and I actually drove it 1,400 Miles from New Mexico to Alberta. As you can see in the pictures the paint on the fenders and roof is thin. About 95% of the paint is original. It has been touched up on the trunk and tops of the quarter panels. It has a few minor dents. All the trim on the car is beautiful. It's very hard to find these cars with trim in this good of shape. The interior is all original and absolutely beautiful with minor wear. You can see in the pictures that it has a Sun Tach. The Tach was possibly installed at the dealer ship when the car was new and somewhere down the line someone changed the original shifter to a Hurst shifter. It even has original factory floor matts! This '63 Galaxie is a true survivor. This car was rare when it was built and how many actually survived? It's very hard to find a rare car like this that hasn't been messed with.

BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR SHIPPING ARRANGEMENTS AND COSTS. BUYER IS MORE THEN WELCOME TO COME PICK IT UP.

Livestream: Ricardo Innovation & Sustainability Symposium 2015
Thu, Mar 19 2015Making decisions on how to invest billions of dollars in future technology is scary even if you're developing something as simple as a smartphone. But when you've got to invest that money in something as complex as a car – one that might drive itself, or operate just on electricity, or even possibly be crash-proof – that task becomes daunting. Today, at 9:00AM, a slate of auto industry leaders are gathering at automotive supplier Ricardo to celebrate the company's 100-year anniversary by looking toward the future. Moderated by Autoblog Editor-in-Chief Sharon Carty, the panel will talk about Ford's vision for the future, look at battery development, environmental issues, and may even debate the future of flying cars. Maybe. If you're interested in following along, take a look at the livestream. Government/Legal Green Ford Technology Emerging Technologies Videos ricardo Sakti3
Ford F-150 could be affected by tornado-damaged supplier in S.C.
Wed, Apr 22 2020The disruption caused by a tornado that severely damaged a South Carolina auto-parts plant and killed a contract security guard last week could be felt by more automakers than just Ford and affect more than just its best-selling F-Series pickup, which is due for an update. And there’s still no estimate for when operations might resume at the plant. The Detroit Free Press reports that the BorgWarner plant in Seneca, near Greenville, makes transfer cases for F-150 and Super Duty pickups, the Ford Explorer and Expedition, Transit cargo vans, and Lincoln Navigator and Aviator SUVs. ItÂ’s also a supplier for the Ram 1500 and Toyota Tundra trucks. Transfer cases shift power from the transmission to the front and rear axles in four-wheel-drive vehicles. BorgWarner says it still has no update for when it might partially or fully resume operations. The tornado that ripped through the area in the western part of the state on April 13 tore the roof, walls and signage off the factory and killed a 77-year-old contract worker when the security building he was sheltering in collapsed. Only four or five others were inside the plant, which has been idled because of the coronavirus outbreak, when the tornado struck. In an SEC filing on Friday, Ford said it has sent employees to the site to help BorgWarner and assess the damage to FordÂ’s tooling. “Initial assessments indicate that the Ford tooling was not materially damaged in this incident,” Ford said in the filing. “We do not have sufficient information to estimate when the facility will be back on-line or whether or the extent to which this incident will impact our plans to resume production of four-wheel drive and all-wheel drive vehicles.” A Fiat Chrysler spokeswoman also told the Freep the company was working with BorgWarner on recovery plans. A Toyota spokesman told Autoblog that "we are collaborating with BorgWarner to help restore production for transfer cases for Tundra assembly. We are confident that theyÂ’ll fully recover over time." Like other automakers, Ford shut down production at its U.S. plants last month as a precaution against the coronavirus pandemic. But Ford hasnÂ’t yet said when it plans to reopen its factories. FCA is targeting May 4 to resume production. Models like the F-150 and Lincoln Navigator are major sources of profit for Ford, which estimated it lost $2 billion in the first quarter.
