 Description:  If you are looking for a nice boulevard cruiser then this 1962 Galaxie is the car for you.  From the fighter plane teeth to the painted flat black wheels with chrome center caps and the aggressive sounding exhaust this car pulls off the "ratrod" look very nicely.  The car runs and drives great, starts up every time. The Galaxie has brand new tires and a recent tuneup. The chassis and suspension is in great shape there is no slop when going over bumps, and or cornering. She has new sway bar bushings, along with a host of other goodies. Yes, your Wife/Girlfriend can drive this car without worry. (see the video below)

WARNING: This car will bring you attention! We get stopped every time we take her out! Lots of cash is invested in this Cruise ship. 

 
 Drivetrain:  The car is powered by a 352ci V8.  The engine has new valve covers, new air filter, new edelbrock intake manifold, and a new 4 barrel Edelbrock carburetor. Motor has been converted from a Points setup and the wiring under the hood is phenomenal. The transmission is a 3 speed Cruise-O-Matic and is very smooth.  The car has a full custom exhaust from the headers back and it has a nice throaty exhaust note that will be sure to turn heads. Motor has been freshened up, but Transmission is still stock. The car does not leak oil or burn oil. 


 Interior:  The seats and carpet have been completely redone, the door panels are in great shape as well as the dashboard and all the switches and buttons.  The headliner needs to be replaced but overall the interior is in great shape.

   


 Exterior:  The car's paint is all original and has a nice patina to it.  All the lights and signals work.  There is a custom jet fighter teeth vinyl graphic going along both front quarter panels . I would reiterate that there is no Rust, she is solid.  What you see in the photos is solely surface rust, I just want the bidders to see every crevice of this Machine. Underside and floor pans are rock solid.

All 25 James Bond movies ranked only by their cars

Mon, Sep 13 2021

There is no shortage of lists ranking the best James Bond movies. Ditto lists about the best or worst James Bond cars. I know, I've written some of them. As such, why not combine the two ideas into one new list that ranks all 25 official James Bond movies based exclusively on their cars, or more accurately their car content. I would then pull from my 25 years of James Bond nerddom plus the excellent "Bond Cars: The Definitive History" and our interview with long-time Bond special effects supervisor Chris Corbould to provide tidbits and factoids about the cars and their roles in the movies. And yes(!), this list now includes "No Time to Die," which impresses by adding plenty of car content to the series. It's now available on Blu-ray and download. To determine the list, I considered the inherent coolness of the cars as well as their importance to Bond, film and car history. I considered their importance to the story as well as the quality/excitement of the chases and scenes they participated in. Finally, I tried my best to divorce the car content from my opinions about the movies in general. That my personal list of best James movies looks nothing like this shows I was at least partially successful.     25. 'Moonraker' There are virtually no cars in "Moonraker." None. Oh, there's a gondola on wheels that makes a pigeon do a double-take, but that's not the same thing as a car. Neither is a golf cart. Or an ambulance. Or a space shuttle.   24. 'From Russia With Love' The literary James Bond mostly drove an ancient Bentley, and "From Russia with Love" is the only film in which it appears. It stays parked and the coolest thing that happens (by 1962 standards) is 007 answers its car phone. Thereafter, we get some old cars (even by 1962 standards) driving around Istanbul and a yellow truck. So yeah. Classic Bond film, a must-watch, just not for its car content.   23. 'Dr. No' History records that the first "Bond car" is the Sunbeam Alpine in "Dr. No." The car itself was literally borrowed from a Miss Jennifer Jackson of 53 Lady Musgrave Road in Jamaica for 10 pounds per day for two days during filming. Also, the stunt where it drove under an excavator blocking the road was entirely conceived because the filmmakers showed up to the road they intended to film on and discovered an excavator blocking the thing. Sadly, those are really the only two things interesting about the Alpine, which is a pretty small and dainty thing by Bond car standards.
