This is my brother's 1967 Ford Galaxie 500 Convertible. Most of the mechanicals have been repaired/replaced or rebuilt. It has a 390 FE motor that has been rebuilt it has an Edelbrock carburator and intake, headers, mild cam and custom exhaust that sounds great. The side frame rails have been replaced and the frame was media blasted and painted. It will need floorpans especially rear pans. Nothing was done to the body but almost 20K was spent on the frame/engine and drive train. A power brake booster was added to the car as well. This has the potenial to be a truly terrific car with just the body/cosmetic things that remain. The car is also listed locally and we reserve the right to cancel the auction at anytime. Please do not ask what the reserve is, I mentioned earlier that there is almost 20k worth of money spent on this car. Please contact Tom for more information @ 513-307-3445 . Thank you.

NHTSA opens investigation into Ford Explorer PI brakes

Wed, 27 Aug 2014

This year more than most, it's pleasant when we can string together a few days without word of an automaker or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announcing a bunch of new recalls. It's seemingly been a little quiet on this front lately (barring a spider-related Suzuki issue revealed early today), but now we have word of the government safety agency opening a Preliminary Evaluation into the 2013 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor, a probe that could potentially affect an estimated 20,000 vehicles.
The issue being investigated concerns failures of the front brake hose on the vehicle that show "small splits in the hoses near the body side ferrule of the hose assembly," according to the agency, and the issue could result in longer stopping distances. The feds have reports of 13 malfunctions affecting 11 Explorer units. However, it's important to note that all of the incidents come from a single, unnamed metropolitan police fleet that operates 46 of them. According to The Detroit News, the failures generally took place between December and July.
NHTSA is investigating further to find if this is a more widespread issue than just this one fleet. Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker confirmed to us, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the agency's report.

Ford ST Octane Academy [w/video]

Wed, 04 Jun 2014



The ST school is about more than just handbrake turns, hot laps, and sliding into parking spaces.
I felt like such a rock star. On my second pass around the UrbanCross course (read: fancy autocross) at the Ford ST Octane Academy, I absolutely nailed the exit, sliding the bright-yellow Focus ST sideways into a box the size of a parking space, all four wheels in line.
