1966 Ford Ltd Galaxie on 2040-cars
Windsor, Colorado, United States
This LTD is a true gem a
real survivor for sure. I found it at an estate sale locally,and bought
it on the spot. I purchased it from the original owner an old gentleman
who was downsizing his estate in general, the car has
49,000 documented original miles on it. You see cars advertised with low miles, the miles on this car are actual not turned over. He saved all the service records
from 66 , it was purchased from a local
dealer here in CO and lived its entire life in the garage I have the
thank you letter from the dealership and the hard plastic dealer service
card still in its case. This car has the 390 power plant and runs
perfect, turn key and purs, also stops and shifts smoothly, the car has all the options of the day ,rear
heat and air as well. Its the original Wimbledon white with a burgundy
interior, there is a slightly worn area on the drivers side rear seat other than that the interior is beautiful along with the factory floor mats that kept the carpet so nice, headliner and rear package area are just beautiful, all the bells and whistles work, engine cold warning light and flashing red parking brake reminder. Has the original spare and jack, I just put new tires on it
,replaced the battery and starter along with a complete tuneup with all
the fluids changed,also a new heater core. The wheels still had the paper stickers on the backs
with the ford part numbers, it rides like a magic carpet smooth and
quiet ,typical of the higher end 60s luxury cars,but still retains a
sportier look. The chrome and stainless trim are impeccable,right down to the chrome gas door trim, the grill
is highly sought after and is immaculate. Everything is still factory
original and everything works,horn, heater, AC,cigarette lighter. There is a slight crease in the passenger
side door and a few scratches on that side also a piece of wheelhouse
trim is missing same side . Previous owner had
trouble parking it towards the last of his driving days. All the glass
and rubber seals are perfect and the doors hood and trunk shut with
that firm solid feel, windows roll up and down perfectly. The car is certainly not 100% show car however it is in fantastic original condition for a 47 year old vehicle, feels like it was driven off the lot.
Overall its a beautiful example of 60s classic Ford, solid powerful and comfortable, this is a turn key start up and go car ,drives anywhere with absolutely no issues other than the constant thumbs up from others. I have to ask that if you make an offer or intend on purchasing the car please follow through and be sincere , alot goes into an auction so lets not waste each others time. I will require a $1000.00 non refundable pay pal deposit at the close of the auction and the remainder within 5 days before the car is released .Please ask any and all questions BEFORE making an offer, after the fact is not the time, I will be happy to answer all, Thanks . |

Former Ford president, Jaguar chairman Nick Scheele dead at 70
Sun, 20 Jul 2014We have the privilege here at Autoblog of reporting a lot of good news, but it is our duty as well to report the bad news and sad news as well. And this is one of those occasions as the automotive industry mourns the passing of one of its leaders.
Nick Scheele was born in the UK in 1944 and joined the Ford Motor Company upon graduating from the University of Durham in 1966, staying within the Blue Oval's portfolio for the entirety of his career. After moving to North America in 1978, he rose through the ranks to become president of Ford's Mexican operations in 1988. After acquiring Jaguar, Ford appointed Scheele as its chairman.
Scheele subsequently acted as chairman of all of Ford's European operations, making difficult decisions to take the division out of the red and into the black. He briefly headed up Ford's North American division before he was appointed in 2001 as president and chief operating officer of the global automaker, working under CEO Bill Ford following the departure of Jacques Nasser departure and retaining the role until his retirement in 2005.
Rolling footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang hits YouTube [w/video]
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal.

So in case you needed more visualizing help, the video below will help you start imagining how you'll look in your 2014 Christmas present to yourself...
Ex-PR chief Vines accuses Ford of bugging cars, phones
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Jason Vines, former head of communications at Ford among other automakers, is accusing the Blue Oval of bugging his company phone and his car during the Firestone tire recall for the Explorer in 2001. The allegations have come to light in Vines' upcoming book What Did Jesus Drive? Crisis PR in Cars, Computers and Christianity.
According to The Detroit News, which has an advance copy of the book, Vines (pictured above) claims that after leaving the company, someone with security within Ford advised him that he had been bugged around the time of the recall. The allegations don't stop there, though. Vines further contends that he might not have been the only one to get this treatment, noting that then-general counsel John Rintamaki also believed he was being listened to.
According to The Detroit News, even if it had been a company phone, recording Vines without his knowledge still would have been a felony under Michigan law.
