Up for auction is a 1964 Ford Galaxie 500XL, 4 dr. hardtop. The car is white in color, with a blue interior. This vehicle may be used for either restoration, or as a parts car. The car has not run in approximately 10+ years. The engine was overhauled at about 80-85,000 miles, but the odometer is at over 160,000 now. The car was parked due to the exhaust manifold bolts being broken off while a "mechanic" was attempting to replace the manifold gaskets. When he removed the intake manifold to have the broken bolts removed, he neglected to clean the debris from the valley, and consequently partially clogged the oil screen/pickup. Car was not driven with the oil light on, or with low oil pressure. I purchased the car to repair, but other projects came first, and the repairs were not done, so the car has sat idle for over 10 tears. This is a complete car, less the generator, brackets for the generator, and other small miscellaneous under-hood items. The car is factory equipped with bucket seats and console, with console mounted shifter. The floor pans are in good condition, to the best of my knowledge (haven't pulled up the carpet to look) , but have looked under the car. The trunk floor is rusted out, due to a bad trunk weatherstrip. The trunk floor will have to be replaced, as will the trunk weatherstrip. Interior is complete. Glass is intact, but the front windshield is cracked at the bottom. The car has been kept covered to prevent water intrusion into the interior. Seats and door panels are in good to better- than- fair condition. Headliner is there, but has fallen in some places.All exterior moldings and trim are in place, and for the most part has only tarnishing, but no dents. The body is in very good condition for the age, with some minor rust out on the lower rear quarter panels behind the wheel wells (due to trunk rust out). Car has factory spinner (tri-bar) wheel covers, and a pair of stainless skirts. Windows roll up and down. The car has no factory air conditioning, no power locks, no power windows, no power seats. Car will have to be picked up at my location, or the buyer must arrange for transport to his/her location, at his/her expense. You must make your own arrangements for transport of the vehicle. Car will not leave these premises until payment is made in full. If the buyer is to personally pick up the car at my location, cash is acceptable. The only other form of payment to be accepted will be via PayPal. The car is sold AS IS, with no warranties, either expressed or implied. If you have any questions, please ask. Pictures are posted.. There is a low reserve on the vehicle. I would rather sell it cheap, as see it go to the crusher or for junk. Car is sold with a Bill of Sale only. Vehicles in Alabama were not issued a title prior to the 1975 model year.

Enterprise working with renter's insurance to cover $47k Mustang stolen from its lot
Sat, 11 Jan 2014There was more than a bit of public indigence following the recent story of Enterprise Rent-A-Car billing a customer $47,000 to replace a Ford Mustang GT Convertible stolen from a Nova Scotia lot. To recap: Kristen Cockerill rented the Mustang for two days, returned it to the lot on a Sunday and left the keys in a secure dropbox only for Enterprise employees to find the car gone the next day.
Despite Enterprise policies stating that customers are responsible for vehicles dropped on off-days, the company has admitted that the situation could've been handled a bit better.
In a recent statement, Enterprise has backed off the big-bill story, and claims to be working with Cockerill and her insurance company to resolve the issue. Further, the Enterprise general manager overseeing Nova Scotia has spoken with the harried renter, and apologized "for the way this claim was handled during the last few months."
We spy the Ford Mustang King Cobra early at SEMA
Tue, 04 Nov 2014As is the case with most auto shows, waiting for the reveal of hot new models is the worst part. So, while our own Drew Phillips has been wandering the halls here in Las Vegas since they unlocked the doors for SEMA 2014, we didn't expect him to come back with any big reveals until later in the day. Until this happened.
Meandering by the Ford stand, Phillips eagle-eyed a trunk lid that caught his attention. Popping out from an otherwise draped 2015 Mustang, the matte black lid clearly has the name King Cobra embossed on the rear.
That name is interesting for a few reasons: to start, Ford hasn't used the Cobra name (without "Jet" attached) since way back in 2004, so a new snake is certainly something to take note of. Second, the King Cobra name dates all the way back to the ill-remembered Mustang II, meaning there is a clear link to Blue Oval history here.
Next Lincoln Navigator to drop V8 in favor of V6, but Ford Expedition might get both
Tue, 12 Mar 2013A great many buyers fled from full-size body-on-frame SUVs to car-based crossovers in large measure to save fuel. But that doesn't mean there's still not a buying audience for more traditional truck-based utility vehicles, and those consumers doubtlessly wouldn't mind saving some dollars at the pump, too. According to Motor Trend, those shoppers might be in luck.
That's because the magazine has confirmed that Ford isn't walking away from the full-size SUV segment, and it's poised to do something about its offerings' economy ratings, too. According to MT, global Lincoln director Matt VanDyke has hinted that the next Navigator may drop two cylinders and go with a V6 model - the current model gets just 14 miles per gallon in the city and 20 on the highway from its 5.4-liter V8. The obvious fitment would be Ford's 3.5-liter twin-turbo EcoBoost V6, an engine that has spread like kudzu throughout the rest of the Blue Oval's large vehicle lineup.
Downsized turbocharged engines like Ford's EcoBoost franchise have come under fire as of late for not delivering their EPA fuel economy ratings, but their benefits extend beyond consumption - the 3.5L offers superior power and a better torque curve than the naturally aspirated V8. MT also suggests that Ford's 3.7-liter V6 could form the base engine for the next Navi - it has similar horsepower but a lot less torque than the current 5.4L. That may be less of a problem with the next generation tipped to go on a diet, which could level the playing field somewhat.
