1966 Ford Galaxie 2 Door Hardtop Big Block 390 Original Un-restored Low Mileage on 2040-cars
East China, Michigan, United States
|
I am listing this car for a friend who doesn't have a computer. We are in the same car club and I am happy to list this nice car for him. The car is a low mileage original (not restored). it has just over 54000 original miles from new and is still wearing its original paint. The original vinyl top is in excellent condition as is the complete interior. the paint is starting to check in a few places but over all the car looks great. I took the pictiures of it last week. It needs a little detaling under the hood and maybe a couple of very small touch ups on the paint but the car is very presentable and very drivable just the way it is. It still looks great on the show field. the chrome is nice and it needs nothing but a driver. We were out on our clubs fall color tour a couple of weeks ago and it drove perfect for the 125 mile run. You wont have to spend any money on it to get it in shape, it is there already. The only reason he is selling it is because he is building another car and doesn't want both of them. You won't be disappointed in this car. I would like to encourage a visit to inspect the car. Carl (the owner) is retired and the car can be viewed just about any time. You can either contact me through e-bay or contact Carl direct at this number, 810-329-3085. This car is nice enough to drive home. We will want the deposit paid within 48 hours of the auction end and the balance paid within 14 days. If the balance payment is being maid my check, the car will not be able to be picked up until the funds clear our bank. We will not forward any funds or take any checks outside the US. If you have any questions you can either contact me through e-bay or call Carl at the number listed. We have the car for sale locally so the auction could end early. Carl is the 3rd owner of the car.

2015 Ford Mustang to make world debut on Dec. 5 [w/video]
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Between a bevvy of spy shots, speculative renders and insidery images from the halls of Car and Driver, we've got a pretty decent idea of what the 2015 Ford Mustang might look like. Still, we're excited to see the real deal as soon as possible.
Turns out that Ford has told us just when that first official look might come, too, although it has chosen somewhat of a backdoor fashion for dropping the news.
The video below popped up on the Ford Mustang YouTube channel this morning, promoting a social media effort called #MustangInspires on. The video and hashtag ask fans of the pony car to share pictures of the car - or "photographic stories of inspiration" - on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, etc. But the truly interesting part of the video description is that which mentions taking "the cover off the all-new Mustang" on December 5. Consider our calendars marked.
Ford profits soar as problems mount
Mon, 19 Aug 2013Ford is doing well. It can't make enough examples of its new Fusion, it can barely make enough of the aging F-150, it's getting good brand rankings, people like its turnaround story, it's selling oodles of product and its quarterly profit numbers end in the word "billion." As other high-flying examples have demonstrated over the past few years, though, big numbers can come with problems that aren't exactly small.
Automotive News has published a good "nutshell" report of Ford's progress and problems. The Dearborn automaker's optimistic "general label rule" determination of gas mileage for the C-Max Hybrid has led to lawsuits, hybrid software updates, a downward revision of C-Max fuel economy and millions in rebates. AN notes the C-Max was the "worst-scoring model in this year's J.D. Power Initial Quality Study," but Ford will probably be happy that it managed not to be mentioned further in the study's results after last year's mediocre showing. Its MyTouch and SYNC systems, the bugbears sabotaging Ford's J.D. Power results, have also led to lawsuits, software updates, more software updates and a center console rethink. On top of that, the 1.6-liter EcoBoost in the 2013 Ford Escape that Ford called a "hero" was soon catching fire for three different reasons. And let's not even get into the troubled launch of the Lincoln MKZ.
The Automotive News piece notes that industry observers have been surprised at Ford's stumbles because everything has been looking so good. Nevertheless, there is still the issue of those billions in profits - the company is doing plenty of things, plural, right. Ford says it is tackling its problems, hiring engineers and instituting new quality control processes as part of its effort to find solutions. The test will be to see if in a year from now we begin the discussion of these issues with "Remember when Ford...", or "Problems continue at The Blue Oval."
Production Ford Escort heading for Beijing
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Ford's long-dormant Escort nameplate returned affixed to a sedan concept at last year's Shanghai Motor Show. While not exactly a beauty, it showed a clean, straightforward take on Ford's current styling. The Blue Oval said at the time that it wanted to create a model that was stylish "but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Job done. A year later, it looks like the minimalist vehicle might make its production debut at the Beijing Motor Show.
Autocar claims that the streetgoing version has been confirmed to it for the upcoming show, but so far, Ford isn't saying. If unveiled, the Escort is likely to be produced locally for the Chinese market with a domestic partner. Powertrain details remain a secret, but it seems highly likely that any production model would use a small three- or four-cylinder engine and front-wheel drive. Sales in other major world markets like ours are unlikely, but a test car was recently spotted in Europe.
Autoblog contacted Ford for confirmation, but the automaker demurred, with a spokesperson saying only, "At the moment, we are not confirming any vehicles planned for the show." It looks like we will have to wait to know for sure.
