Up for auction is my beautiful 1965 Ford Galaxie 500 LTD convertible. The 1965 Galaxie was an all-new design, featuring vertically stacked headlights in what was becoming the fashionable style in a car somewhat taller and bulkier than previous year's.
Suspension was dramatically redesigned. Replacing the former leaf-spring rear suspension was the new three-link system, featuring all coils. The ride improved, and handling got a boost, and this system was used for NASCAR in the full-size class. . The car is all original, and all emblems are intact. Weight is 3,615 pounds. This Galaxie 500 has a powerful 289 , V-8 (4.7 litre ) engine. It stars right up, and idles smoothly. It is 2-Door , 3-speed automatic, with dual exhaust. It features a 2-way key system. The body, and paint are in very good shape. You will find some minor scratches scattered throughout, and a few shallow dings ( just what you would expect from a car this old) It had a paint job in the past, and an undercoating too. The trunk is very clean with no rust. Included is the original spare tire, jack, and fire extinguisher . There is a spot of rust about 2 inches in diameter through the backseat passenger side quarter floor panel. Please see the photo. The interior is in very good shape. The vinyl seats shine like new. The are no rips or tears on the seats, and the carpet is in great condition, and comes with floor mats. The dash is in great condition. There is a tear located on the driver's side vinyl door panel at the top. It should be easy to replace. (Please see the photo) Has all the seat belts. All windows are intact, and work perfectly. The vinyl convertible top, and rear window, are in beautiful shape- no tears throughout. Convertible Top goes up and down perfectly, using the "Top" nob located on the dash. Comes with original vinyl convertible well-liner. Electrically everything is in perfect working order, except the clock, and lighter. The radio isn't hooked up. The car sells as is. Buyer pays total shipping costs. Thanks for bidding, and enjoy this Classic beauty! |

Ford F-150 RaptorTrax is Ken Block's ultimate snowmobile
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Even when Ken Block isn't starring in the latest Gymkhana video or tearing up Global RallyCross courses, he's finding new ways to redefine "awesome" as it applies to motorsports. For evidence of this, look no further than Block's latest Monster-badged creation, the Ford F-150 RaptorTrax.
Billed as the "world's fastest snowcat," the RaptorTrax started life as a Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, and then a set of Mattracks were put in place where the truck's bead-locked wheels and meaty rubber once resided. The goal was to create a truck that made it easier - and presumably more fun - for Block and his buddies to hit the slopes on their snowboards. Aside from the obvious track upgrades, this truck also received a Whipple supercharger, full roll cage, Recaro seats, an in-bed snowboard rack, a roof basket and a rear-mounted winch - you know, just in case something or someone actually manages to get this truck stuck.
The RaptorTrax will be on display later this week at the Winter X Games in Apsen, CO, but we'll have to wait until next winter for a full Block-worthy video of the truck. A full press release from Hoonigan Racing Division is posted below, and a high-res image can be found by clicking above.
Ford investing $500M in engine plant for 2.7L EcoBoost production
Sun, 30 Mar 2014Ohio is a hot area for Ford at the moment with the announcement just a few weeks ago that production of the next-generation F-650/F-750 medium-duty trucks would move from Mexico to the Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Now, Ford is investing $500 million to hire 300 workers at its Lima Engine Plant in Lima, Ohio, to add production of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 for the 2015 F-150.
The latest investment will be used to add a new flexible engine assembly system and renovate 700,000 square feet of the plant for machining and assembly areas. The Lima factory already builds Ford's 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter Duratec V6 engines. The plant opened in 1957, and it's on track to build its 40 millionth engine later this year.
Ford claims that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost will offer V8 performance with better efficiency in the F-150. It comes standard with intelligent stop/start that doesn't activate when the truck is towing or in four-wheel drive, and it's made from a combination of compacted graphite iron and aluminum for low weight and high strength. The company says that V6 engines have already proven popular in the F-150 with 57 percent of trucks in 2014 being equipped with either the naturally aspirated 3.7-liter or turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines.
