1966 Ford Galaxie 500 4 door

This is a great original car. Great overall condition, runs and drives great. This is an unrestored, unmodified, untouched original car. It is the original paint, no damage, no repairs and all the doors, hood and trunk fit great with even gaps. It has all the trim, hubcaps and it is complete. It shows just under 56,000 and that is the original miles. I purchased it from the family who owned it all its life. Please read below for all the details.

Engine:

390 Cubic inch

Automatic

Power steering

The car has had a recent tune up, transmission service, brakes checked and carb rebuilt. It goes down the road really well, no knocks, no smoke. It runs, shifts and idles great. When I say recent, it has only 10 miles on it since work has been done by a professional shop.

New tires.

Interior:

The front seat has no rips although the bottom on the driver’s side the material is separated. It may be able to be stretched and fixed.

The back seat is perfect.

The dash has no cracks and has good color.

The carpet is worn and torn on the driver’s side only at the door.

The door panels are worn at the top and bottom although in good shape overall.

The pillar covers are broken and a new set, the right color comes with the car.

The headliner is in good shape except for a small tear near the back seat coat hook.

I have the steering wheel chrome horn ring, it is not on the wheel.

Exterior:

Original paint. It is faded although I think it could be buffed out to drive it as is.

There are a few rust spots, although not big. They are on the passenger left hand door, the size of a quarter. The two rear fenders at the bottom have a little rust. The floors are good, no rust. No rust in the door jambs. The frame and underbody is good.

The trunk has rust on the lip where the latch is. Also the trunk floor has rust although only pin holes through the floor. Easily fixable.

All the trim and emblems are on the car.

The outside mirrors are off the car, I have them and they will come with the car.

The front bumper is rusty on the bottom half. No thru holes, although a little rusty.

The back bumper has surface rust. It is in good shape

Both bumpers are straight, no dents and they are not bent.

All the trim around all the doors, windows, side and around the wheel wells is very good.

All emblems are there.

All glass is good, no cracks.

The light bezels, front and back are good along with the lenses.

The grille has only one small dent which can easily be corrected.

 

This is great original car that runs and drives great, is in great original condition, is very straight and comes with all the parts. You can drive it now and fix it as you go or just leave it like this, buff it out and have a great time for very little money.

Pickup only, no delivery.

Please arrange for pickup soon after winning as the place where I have it stored inside was recently sold and I will no longer have that storage location.

Deposit within 5 days, via Paypal or cash or certified check.

No trades please.

Please feel free to ask questions.

Lincoln 'not true luxury' yet, says Ford design chief

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

Lincoln is "not true luxury," according to Ford's design boss, J Mays. His statements come from a story in The Detroit News that saw candid language on the issues facing Ford's troubled premium brand. Notably, there's a need for a strong character, with Mays saying, "Every brand needs to have a DNA and a unique selling point and things in the vehicle that make you think, 'That's that particular brand.'"
With a range of rebadged Fords, it's not hard to see why that DNA is missing. Mays hinted that a full recovery for Lincoln will be a ten-year process, that's been kicked off with the MKZ sedan. While that car is still largely a Ford Fusion under its extremely pretty wrapper, it's the first Lincoln in some time to inject its own unique take both through the exterior styling and through interior features, such as the vertical, pushbutton gear selection.
Some analysts weren't so certain about Mays' 10-year estimate. Jim Hall of 2953 Analytics thinks it'll be more like 30 years before Lincoln can show a true return to form. The issue, as Hall explains it, is that, "luxury has a degree of exclusivity," that Lincoln just doesn't have. Michelle Krebs from Edmunds adds, "it's definitely a wanna-be luxury brand," comparing the troubled American brand with Infiniti and Acura, two other brands that have struggled to find their place in the luxury market.

Former Ford CEO Alan Mulally lands on Google board

Wed, 16 Jul 2014

Former Ford CEO Alan Mulally often referred to the Blue Oval as a technology company when he led the automaker. Now he'll be offering guidance to a different kind of technology firm: Google.
Mulally was appointed to Google's board of directors July 9, and late Tuesday, it was announced that he will serve on the company's audit committee. The veteran executive led Ford from September 2006 until he retired in June, succeeded by Mark Fields.
While Mulally will act as a board member - rather than in a managerial role - his presence adds credibility to Google's recently announced plans to produce an autonomous car. The ambitious program calls for 100 prototypes to begin testing later this summer. Production of the car is rumored to be in collaboration with a Detroit area performance company, Roush.

2015 Ford Mustang Convertible shown on Twitter [UPDATE w/video]

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

It hasn't yet been 12 hours since the hotly anticipated 2015 Ford Mustang has been let out into public view. After a series of evocative leaks over the course of the last days, we brought you a full deep dive of the sixth-generation pony car at the dawning of today. And yet, here we are rushing to bring you news of a new Mustang variant, already.
Be it part of a plan to keep the Mustang fervor at full boil, or a misunderstood email somewhere in the chain of command, Ford UK has unceremoniously tweeted a picture of the 2015 Ford Mustang Convertible. For a newly global Mustang, getting our first look at the droptop from the convertible-crazy British does make some amount of sense.
As for details, well, you're looking at them. Brandon Turkus reported yesterday that the Mustang 'vert would make use of a fully electric convertible mechanism, and that it would be of fabric construction rather than some kind of retractable hardtop. We see here that the fabric part is clearly true, and it does look as though Ford may still be employing the same kind of manually attached tonneau cover that exists right now. Of course, our view from this angle isn't great, and the particulars are still up in the air.
