1972 Ford Galaxie 500 in fairly decent condition for its age, runs smooth and is NOT smoking.
- Car seems to have the original 351W in it with 2BBL carb. with most of everything from the factory still there (some electrical wires aren't connected to anything in particular though);
- Car runs smooth, but I have not driven it far, other than up and down the road about 1/4 mile;
- The Air Conditioner surprisingly (at least to me) works;
- The Interior is in really nice shape, with only the small tears on the drivers side of the front seat as seen in the picture;
- Car appears to have been repainted or touched up in spots (right front fender has some cracks in the paint);
- The car looks a lot better in the pictures than it does up close:
- - the paint is not perfect, it is faded, has discoloration
- - there are spots of surface rust, there is a a rust hole over the passenger side rear quarter dog leg;
- - the lower part of the drivers side quarter panel has a rust hole and metal is thin from rust on the back side;
- - the hood has rust holes in spots and seems to need a new hood;
- - there are some small dings and dents in the fenders and quarter panels, but body is overall straight.
- - the vinyl top is torn in many places;
- - the gas tank had a pinhole in it (found when I put some gas in it), so I prepped around the area and epoxyed the hole and surrounding area and the gas stopped leaking, not sure if that is a permanent fix or not, but have done it too both a fuel tank and oil pan on one of my tractors and it has held for several years now).

Ford tells Congress it collects and protects some driver data
Fri, 14 Feb 2014Last month Ford's Jim Farley made waves at the CES when it was reported he told show attendees, "We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing. By the way, we don't supply that data to anyone." Farley and Ford later partially retracted and clarified that statement.
Spurred by a desire for further transparency on data collection policies, Ford representatives answered questions from Congress, specifically Senator Al Franken (D-Minn.), about driver privacy.
The Detroit News reports that Ford told Congress it does collect some vehicle location data in an effort to "troubleshoot and improve our products" on behalf of the driver. Ford went on to say that it only collects limited data after receiving permission from owners.
This Or That: Fiat 500 Abarth vs. Ford Fiesta ST [w/poll]
Thu, 21 Aug 2014
They're pretty darn similar. And yet our views are oh so different.
If you guys could read the transcripts of our editors' chat room, you'd know that we're a pretty argumentative bunch. It's always good-spirited stuff (well, usually), but when we're not obsessively covering this or that, we're usually fighting about one car being better than another. We're all enthusiasts here, and our automotive tastes run the gamut from the weird and unusual to the decidedly mainstream - we all feel strongly about specific cars in a given segment. While it usually makes for good conversation, if we're passionate enough, it can turn into a tomato-throwing showdown.
Ford issues four recalls covering 163k vehicles
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Recalls! 2014 will be forever remembered as the year that automakers went recall crazy, with millions and millions of vehicles adding up to crush previous recall records well before the end of the year. Adding to that tally is Ford, which announced a call-back for 163,000 vehicles.
Leading that charge are the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder engines of the Ford Focus ST and Ford Escape. 160,000 of the 2013 and 2014 models have bad wiring harnesses that can disrupt the signals traveling to the powertrain control module. That, in turn, could lead to a check engine light, reduced power and stalling. Notably, Ford hasn't recalled any other vehicles that feature the 2.0 EcoBoost, such as the Fusion, Taurus or Explorer.
While the Focus ST and Escape constitute the vast majority of recalled vehicles, they aren't the only problem children in the Ford family. 1,300 Transit passenger vans from model year 2015 were recalled due to brake fluid leaks, while another 600 Transit cargo variants were recalled after Ford discovered the windowless sliding doors could come open in the event of a side-impact crash. Dealers will replace the sealing washers on the passenger variants and add a reinforcement plate on the cargo models, The Detroit News reports.
