1963 1/2 Galaxie 500
Up for auction is a nice mostly original 1963 Galaxie 500 Fastback. The car retains its original C-code 289 that has been upgraded with an original Ford cast iron 4V intake and a Holley 4V carb, automatic transmission, and power steering. The engine has received a recent tune up. It also received a small dress up kit with Cobra valve covers and a chrome air breather, similar to those who remember the 289 hi-po engines. The power steering works but has a leak in one of the lines that I will be working on. It has glass pack dual exhaust. A brand new set of eagle ”torque thrust” style wheels were mounted on with tires that has great tread. The front wheels are 15x7 and the rears 15x8. The body is in very good shape for the year. It appears to have had one repaint of the original color. There are a few small places that are starting to bubble up but no rust through. Paint is average, a great daily driver but no show winner. The frame and floors are free of rust or rot. This is an exceptionally solid car for the year. The interior is all original from the headliner to the carpet. All of the lights work, headlights low and high beam, turn signals, brake lights etc. The temp gauge, windshield wipers, and the speedometer are also in working order. The blower motor, original AM radio, and fuel gauge are not working at this time. As far as running condition, it starts and runs great. The dual exhaust has a great vintage sound, the steering is tight and the brakes work well. This car will make a great daily driver or weekend cruise in car show candidate. Drive and enjoy it this summer. Please give me a call with any question. 765-376-3486 Thanks and Happy Bidding!!! |

Evo grabs Ford's Fiesta R5 rally car by the scruff
Wed, 04 Sep 2013Evo and host Henry Catchpole were thinking of excuses reasons to borrow the bonkers Ford Fiesta R5 rally car for a day or two, when it struck them: the car is street legal. With access to the R5, some of the world's most beautiful driving roads in the English Lake Country nearby, and a handy video crewing hanging around, the plan seemed to write itself.
Based on the resulting video, it was a good plan. Without spoiling the video for you - something we can't really do in text as the best part is listening to the rally car run - Catchpole finds the Fiesta to be sublimely quick and massively satisfying. Even taking the car for a spin on a pseudo rally stage, after leaving the English countryside, does nothing but add to his assessment of the beastly little Ford. Scroll on below to see for yourself, and enjoy the ride.

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Ford Transit can haul on the track
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Line up any two comparable vehicles, and eople are going to want to race them. Need proof? In its latest track battle, Auto Express wants to know which commercial vehicle can lap a circuit faster - a Ford Transit or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Let's face it, neither of these European vans were ever meant to be near the track unless they are delivering a racecar and a ton of parts for a fun weekend, but it's massively fun to watch them give it a go anyway.
The one thing that Auto Express really illustrates here is the modern marvel that is stability control. The driver hops curves, and these big vans lean in the corners like your friend walking home from a long night at the bar. However, because of the amazing stability systems, the vans mostly keep all of their wheels planted and never seem close to getting sloppy, despite their behemoth size.
Unfortunately, the two vans aren't exactly fairly paired. The Ford has a dual rear axle and a few other advantages over the Mercedes, but it's still hilarious to watch them go. Even better, the host breaks down everything happening behind the wheel like these commercial vehicles were two Porsches. Enjoy watching this very unorthodox battle between Ford and Mercedes.
