THIS IS AN AMAZING 1967 FORD GALAXIE 500. IT HAS BEEN REDONE TO A LARGE EXTENT AND NEEDS ONLY SMALL THINGS TO MAKE IT A BEAUTIFUL CRUISE IN CAR. IT HAS BEEN REPAINTED AND TWO NICKLE SIZED HOLES IN THE REAR QUARTERS HAVE BEEN LEADED IN AND FIXED THE RIGHT WAY, OTHER THAN THAT I KNOW OF NO BONDO IN THE CAR. IT HAS ALL OF THE TRIM AND JUST NEEDS THE SIDE TRIM PUT BACK ON, I HAVE IT ALL AND MANY EXTRAS IF YOU EVER NEED THEM FOR THE LOWER TRIM PARTS. IT WILL HAVE A NEW SUMMIT RACING STARTER IN IT BY THE TIME THE AUCTION IS OVER. COMES WITH EXTRA TRANSMISSION COOLER LINES, THE EXTRA TRIM I TALKED ABOUT, AN EXTRA DASH PAD TO MAKE IT LOOK NEW AS WELL AS ONE ALREADY IN THE CAR, EXTRA REAR INTERIOR PANELS IN WHITE, THE FRONT DOOR CARDS ARE WHITE NOW AND ARE THE ONLY THING ON THE INTERIOR THAT DOESN'T MATCH. ALSO WILL COME WITH AN ENTIRE FRONT END POLYURETHANE BUSHING KIT THAT WILL MAKE IT HANDLE MUCH BETTER. MANY MISC. HOSES FASTENERS AND CLIPS AS WELL AS A 1967 FORD AND MERCURY SERVICE MANUAL AND SOME OTHER LITTLE THINGS I CANT REMEMBER RIGHT NOW. THE ENGINE HAS BEEN REDRESSED WITH ALL NEW ACCESSORIES INCLUDING A NEW ALTERNATOR, WATER PUMP POWER STEERING PUMP STARTER SOLENOID, ALL NEW OR POWDERCOATED BRACKETS AND BELTS AND HOSES. NEW DISTRIBUTOR, HARMONIC BALANCER, PLUGS WIRES AIR FILTER AND BATTERY ALL IN THE LAST YEAR. BASICALLY THE ENGINE BLOCK, INTERNALS, INTAKE AND CARB ARE ORIGINAL, HOWEVER THE INTAKE IS NOT THE ORIGINAL GALAXIE INTAKE IT IS A FORD INTAKE BUT WE BELIEVE IT TO BE FROM A HIGHER PERFORMANCE FORD MODEL 289. THE CARB HAS BEEN DECODED AS AN AUTOLITE 4 BARREL AND ALL THIS MAKES THIS THING FLY. IT DOES HAVE STANDARD DRUM BRAKES THAT WORK GREAT BUT THEY ARE NOT POWERED OR DISK. NEW VALVE COVERS MAKE THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT LOOK FANTASTIC TOO. THE STEERING COLUMN IS RED SINCE THE ORIGINAL COLOR OF THE INTERIOR WAS RED. OW ITS WHITE ON BLACK AND OTHER THAN THE ROOF LINER AND STEERING COLUMN ITS ALL BLACK. NEW L.E.D BRAKE AND RUNNING LIGHTS WERE INSTALLED TO MAKE THEM BRIGHTER AT NIGHT. THE 15' CRAGARS AND BF GOODRICH 225/70/15 ARE NEW WITH ONLY 33 MILES ON THEM. THE INTERIOR WAS SOUNDPROOFED WHEN THE NEW CARPET WENT IN AND IS MUCH QUIETER THA ORIGINAL. IT HAS A PIONEER STEREO NEW 6X9 REAR SPEAKERS NEW 4 INCH FRONT SPEAKERS AND AN AMP AND SUB WIRED INTO THE TRUNK. SEEMS TO CUT OUT SOMETIMES BUT SOUNDS AWESOME FOR A CRUISE IN OR A DAY OUT. MY FIRST CAR WAS A 1967 GALAXY 500 AND I WAS HIT BY A DRUNK DRIVER, IT WAS FIXED BUT WAS NEVER THE SAME AND MY DAD SOLD IT IN 1988. I ALWAYS WANTED ANOTHER ONE AND THEN IN 2011 MY DAD GOT CANCER. I SOLD MY VICTORY MOTORCYCLE AND FOUND THIS ONE AND BOUGHT IT FOR HIM TO HAVE SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING ON AFTER HIS SURGERY. HE DID ALL THE WORK AND RECOVERED AND SINCE THEN WE HAVE HAD A BLAST WORKING ON IT JUST FATHER AND SON. HOWEVER AT 43, I JUST FOUND OUT I AM HAVING A SECOND CHILD AND AM FORCED TO SELL THIS TO HELP PAY FOR A MINI VAN. YIKES I KNOW, BUT IT SERVED ITS PURPOSE AND ITS TIME TO GO TO SOMEONE WHO HAS TIME TO SHOW IT OFF. MY INSURANCE COMPANY, HAGARTY ASKED I INSURE IT FOR 11,200.00 LAST YEAR BUT I KNOW I WONT GET THAT MUCH RESERVE IS JUST TO PROTECT THE MONEY THAT WE HAVE IN THE CAR AND I THINK IS VERY FAIR. I CAN BE REACHED AT THREE THREE OH THREE FIVE THREE ZERO ONE FOUR NINE AND WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE BEFORE BIDDING ON THIS GREAT CAR. IF I THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE I'LL TRY AND ADD IT. THANKS AND GOOD LUCK BIDDING. OH AND ONE MORE THING IN THE PICTURES YOU WILL NOTICE A BLACK STRIPE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE CAR, ITS A DECAL NOT PAINT, DAD WANTED TO SEE WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE WITHOUT THE TRIM SO WE HAD A COMPLETE DECAL SET CUT THAT WILL ALSO GO WITH THE CAR.

Chinese market Ford Taurus will be unveiled at Shanghai Motor Show
Fri, Apr 10 2015A new Ford Taurus is on the way, at least for some markets. As part of a huge unveiling of seven models for the Asia Pacific market at the Shanghai Motor Show, Ford is announcing the debut of the company's next-gen large sedan on April 18 just before the event in China begins. Unfortunately, the Taurus that we see in Shanghai might not signal too much about the future version in the US. Ford spokesperson Monique Brentley tells Autoblog that this debut is specifically for the Chinese market, and the Blue Oval isn't saying whether any of this updated look will come across the Pacific. We got a tiny preview of the new Taurus earlier this year when one was spotted wearing heavy camouflage while testing in China. That one retained the sedan's hexagonal grille but added more horizontal chrome slats. It also featured reshaped headlights and a broad, lower air dam. Previous reports have indicated the next-gen model might be built around a stretched and widened version of the Fusion platform, and a major goal during development was shedding as many pounds as possible. With little time before the official unveiling, it won't be long until we'll know much of this for sure.

Ford's new flagship sedan for China will take the stage at the auto show, along with six other new vehicles making their debuts in Asia Pacific. "We are looking forward to taking the wraps off seven new vehicles for our customers in China and continuing our delivery of great products and innovative technologies," said John Lawler, chairman and CEO, Ford China.
Autoblog's guilty pleasure cars
Tue, Mar 10 2015Guilty pleasures are part of life – don't even try to pretend like you don't have one (or two, or six). In the non-automotive space, this could come down to that secret playlist in your iPhone of songs you'll only listen to when you're alone; or think of that one TV show you really do love, but won't admit to your friends. I've got plenty, and so do you. Going back to cars, here's a particularly juicy one for me: several years ago, I had a mad crush on the very last iteration of the Cadillac DTS. Oh yes, the front-wheel-drive, Northstar V8-powered sofa-on-wheels that was the last remaining shred of the elderly-swooning days of Cadillac's past. Every time I had the chance to drive one, I was secretly giddy. Don't hate me, okay? These days, the DTS is gone, but I've still got a mess of other cars that hold a special place in my heart. And in the spirit of camaraderie, I've asked my other Autoblog editors to tell me some of their guilty pleasure cars, as well – Seyth Miersma, as you can see above, has a few choice emotions to share about the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution. Read on to find out what cars make us secretly happy. Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG This decadent convertible is the epitome of the guilty pleasure. It's big, powerful, fairly heavy and it's richly appointed inside and out. It's a chocolate eclair with the three-pointed star on the hood. Given my druthers, I'd take the SL65 AMG, which delivers 621 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque. That output is borderline absurd for this laid-back convertible. I don't care. You don't need dessert. Sometimes you just crave it. The SL line is about the feel you get on the road. The roof is open. The air, sun and engine sounds all embrace you. It's the same dynamic you could have experienced in a Mercedes a century ago, yet the SL gives you the most modern of luxuries. An Airscarf feature that warms my neck and shoulders through a vent embedded in the seat? Yes, please. Sure, it's an old-guy car. Mr. Burns and Lord Grantham are probably too young and hip for an SL65. I don't care. This is my guilty pleasure. Release the hounds. – Greg Migliore Senior Editor Ford Flex I drove my first Flex in 2009 when my mother let me borrow hers for the summer while I was away at college. The incredibly spacious interior made moving twice that summer a breeze, and the 200-mile trips up north were quite comfortable.
KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
