I am listing this beautiful car for a friend of mine. Up for bids is the real deal a 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 XL with a 289 v8 with a C4 automatic transmission, original interior with some cracks
and a failed seam in the back seat. This is a Midwest car from Missouri
till a few years ago. Garaged 85% of its life. New installed parts: windshield, tires, spark plugs, wires, air filter. New parts not yet installed:rear coil springs, rear shocks, distributor cap, rotor. (Have these) Needs: could use a new top-it is still weatherproof, but it isn't winning any shows.Convertible hydraulic piston needs a hose fitting, top is manual raise and lower now.Some bubbling at the lower edge of the trunk deck, doors, and behind the wheels. No exposed rust.Paint still beads water, dual exhaust with cherry bombs, all trim,
badges, and interior trinkets (knobs, buttons, indicator lights, and
handles) are all original and there.This car is awesome! Every where I stop, people comment. The undercarriage is extremely clean and the frame is very solid. A sudden change in employment status is forcing me to sell the car. Don't want to, but gotta pay the bills. In 1966 Ford made less than 6,500 of these cars so therefore this car is rare. So Serious Bidders Only!!!!! Good Luck and Happy Bidding
On Aug-20-14 at 13:50:26 PDT, seller added the following information: Update from above statement In 1966 Ford made less than 6,500 of these cars, but only 6,360 Galaxies 500 XL convertibles were produced by the Ford Motor Company in 1966. |

2015 Ford F-150 pricing announced, aluminum-bodied truck up just $395
Mon, 28 Jul 2014The eagerly anticipated Ford F-150 has had its 2015 pricing announced, adding only a small amount to the pickup's total cost, despite its weight-saving aluminum body. The XL and XLT entry level models only see a $395 boost over the heavier, current-generation, 2014 truck.
The XL starts at $26,615 while the XLT rings up at $31,890. The increase for Lariat is up a similarly negligible $895, to $39,880. Going up the ladder, meanwhile, the leather-intensive King Ranch sees the biggest jump of the F-150 family, with prices increasing $3,515, to $49,460. Finally, picking up the top-end Platinum trim will cost an extra $3,055, with prices starting at $52,155.
The higher prices are being blamed not only on the aluminum bodies, which trim up to 700 pounds of body fat, but on increased levels of standard equipment. While we were expecting a price hike, the fact that the 2015 F-150's volume trims - Ford spokesman Mike Levine told Reuters that the XL and XLT alone cover 70 percent of F-150 sales - have had less than a $400 increase is hugely impressive.
Old vs. new debate gets new life with $25,000 Fiesta ST vs. E46 M3 showdown
Fri, 10 Jan 2014You know who you are. There's probably a few of you reading; the ones that say, "Why would I spend $27,000 on a new Mazda MX-5 when I could get a used Chevrolet Corvette with more power." Yes, we're talking to you, used car proponents. While it is a fair argument, it's not like used cars don't come with drawbacks of their own, though.
In an attempt to put this new-versus-used argument to bed once and for all, Matt Farah of the The Smoking Tire has picked up a pair of $25,000 cars - a used, but lightly modified, 2003 BMW M3 and a 2013 Ford Fiesta ST. Naturally, there's a comparison.
Farah, as he's wont to do, does get into the nitty gritty of what each car is like to drive, and discusses the merits of used and new-car shopping. But as he rightly points out while testing the M3, "So, it is a good car. But like any used car, it really does depend on the individual car."
Autocar pits Formula Ford against Germany's finest
Wed, 25 Sep 2013Ford has quite the racing pedigree, but usually, its racers are relegated to the track. Not the new Formula Ford EcoBoost, though. It's a turbocharged, open-wheeled racer complete with a 200-horsepower, 1.0-liter, three-cylinder engine... and it's legal on the roads of the UK.
That's stressed in this video from Autocar, with the mag going so far as to show the car's tax disc and license plates. Being a road-legal offering, it's tempting to see just how well an open-wheeler that delivers racecar-like performance while also netting over 100 miles per gallon (assume this is on the British cycle, for obvious reasons) stacks up against modern performance cars.
Autocar lined up the Formula Ford against an Audi R8 V10, a BMW M6 Gran Coupe and a Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG in a number of situations to see which would come out on top. Take a look below for the full video.
