The item you are bidding on is a 1969 Ford Galaxie 500 Hardtop Coupe. It is equipped with a 6.4l 390 cubic inch V8 powered by a 2bbl carburetor. It has a three speed C6 automatic transmission. It has power steering, power brakes, front disc, rear drum, and air conditioning equipped. The AC does not work, the system holds refrigerant, but the compressor will not power up, and the expansion valve is bad. The heater control panel works somewhat, but blower control is sketchy. The body is fairly straight, with the exception of the left front fender, which has dents that were pulled. Bumpers are bent and have surface rust. Side trim was removed. Door locks are inop. Car runs and drives. It needs carburetor work, as it requires starting fluid first thing in the morning to start, will start fine the rest of the day. All lights work, except hazards, which work intermittently. Previous owner installed new dual exhaust with turbo mufflers, sounds good. Needs a lot of interior work. I have door panels, but left one has major damage. Seats need recovered. Headliner and carpet are missing. There is some fiberglass work done in the trunk. Floor pans need to be replaced. Tires have tread but need to be replaced. The vinykl top is coming off and there is rust underneath. The only place I am aware it has rusted through is below the rear windshield. Dash pad is cracked.
The bottom line: This car runs and drives good, is a lot of fun to drive, gets a lot of looks. I suspect the carburetor is bad, a reman one runs about $125 from rockauto. I would hang on to it if I didn't already have another car I am restoring. I drive it regularly as I don't like to let it sit.
I am making no guarantees on this car. It needs to be restored. It is being sold as is. Period.

2015 Ford Expedition
Mon, 21 Jul 2014While the tide of bigger-is-better SUVs has been in recession since, well, the recession, fullsize utes are still very much with us. Conservative creatures that have been loathe to evolve, fullsize SUVs nonetheless remain enduringly popular among large families, livery customers, and anyone with lots of friends, relatives, and toys to tug around. With respect to Toyota and Nissan, the only players that really matter in the segment are the new-for-2015 Chevrolet Tahoe/Suburban, the GMC Yukon/Yukon XL, and this truck: the Ford Expedition, the latest evolution of which we just drove for the first time at a press preview in West Virginia.
Unlike the General Motors utilities, the standard Expedition and the long-wheelbase Expedition EL are not all-new, but rather are heavily refreshed versions of the same basic truck Ford started selling way back in 2007. The front fascia is where most of the exterior update happens for 2015, with a new three-bar grille design, halogen projector headlamps, and new bumper design with available LED foglamps. Despite all the new bits, the facelift breaks exactly zero ground in terms of design; in fact, it already looks dated, and will only look older once the macho 2015 F-150 bows later this year. Even less has changed out back, where the tailgate gets a wide chrome band spanning the taillamps and a new chrome exhaust tip. Other exterior changes are generally limited to colors and an all-new wheel lineup that includes a gleaming set of six-spoke 22-inch polished wheels on high-end models.
Speaking of high-end models, a new Platinum trim is positioned above the cowboy-spec King Ranch model for 2015. Both the Platinum and King Ranch get their own color combos and exterior trim finishes (satin metal for the Platinum, chrome everywhere and ginormous badges for the King Ranch) and posh, leather-lined interiors with their own aesthetic. The Expedition family also now includes a price-leading XL model, as well as XLT and Limited grades.
