1961 Ford Galaxie Country Sedan station wagon.  This is a restored car with a completely professionally rebuilt 302 V8 and new AOD Automatic Overdrive Transmission with about 10,000 miles on the car since restoration.  The 302 has a 2 bbl carb, runs strong and sounds great with the headers and side pipes. The AOD transmission is a really nice modern touch for this classic and we kept the shifter on the column.  Radiator is new and this car will run all day in the summer without overheating. There's a nice temp gage installed under the dash.  I get more thumbs up on the highway from this than any other car I've had.  You just don't find these in this shape anymore without rust.

The paint is about 3 years old.  There's no rust on this car anywhere. I included photos of the spare tire chamber and the area forward of the spare under the bed where you can see the original red paint and no rust damage.  Vintage Cragar Keystone mag wheels.  The rear wheel skirts were painted to match and are included with the car.  I like the look without them but they can be put on easily.

The molding, emblems and trim pieces are in really nice shape.  All the doors and windows open and close as they should. The front bumper was re-chromed but all the other trim has its original patina.  Grille is straight without any damage.  Engine compartment was also restored and has a clean look.  There's lots to show off on this car. Dash is original, not cut and painted to match the top as are the rest of the interior trim pieces.  Rare electric window in the tailgate works great using the toggle switch on the dash.

Floors were painted black and there is no rust.  Seat covers are original. You can finish the interior to your taste or leave it as is.  I have the headliner bows and they go with the car.    All of the glass is original Ford Motor Co. script glass. Title is clear, in my name and there are no hidden DMV fees.  Everything is current.

Neat old classic wagon that was done right with style and can be driven home anywhere. Check out the video of it running by pasting the following link into your browser

Automakers donating money, vehicles and supplies to Oklahoma tornado relief effort

Fri, 24 May 2013

Judging by the destruction the Oklahoma City area experienced earlier this week, residents are going to need a lot of help in coming months. Fortunately, a number of automakers - including General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Volkswagen, Honda and Toyota - have stepped up to donate money, supplies and vehicles to aid in the recovery and rebuilding processes.
Here's a quick rundown of which automakers have pitched in and what each contributed so far:
Ford Motor Company has donating $250,000 and a Transit Connect to the American Red Cross, and it will match all other donations made to the Red Cross (up to $250,000) using a special URL tied to the latter's website (link here). Additionally, its local Oklahoma dealers have thrown in an extra $150,000 for the United Way and the automaker will be offering an extra $500 toward the purchase of a new Ford vehicle.

Ford auctioning off F-35-themed 2015 Mustang for charity

Wed, 16 Jul 2014

Ford's been a supporter of EAA AirVenture, a huge, annual air show held in Oshkosh, WI, for several years now, with one of its most notable contributions being a modified Ford Mustang, designed to look like one of America's great fighting aircraft. There was an SR-71 Mustang, based on the legendary spy plane, a Red Tails edition, which honored the ground-breaking Tuskegee Airmen of World War II, as well as Blue Angels and Thunderbird Mustangs, based on America's two great military aerial demonstration teams.
Each car is auctioned off, with all proceeds going to the EAA Young Eagles program, which introduces kids to the joy of flight. For the 2014 AirVenture, which runs from July 28 to August 3, the one-off pony car is based on the new-for-2015 Mustang, and America's latest fighting aircraft - the controversial F-35 Lightning II.
The unique Mustang sports titanium paint scheme, with both glossy and matte sections, as well as yellow-and-blue trim and decal elements inspired by CF-1, the first F-35 test plane. A carbon-fiber front splitter and rear diffuser add some visual eye candy, while the interior boasts a set of Recaro seats. Ford also opted to fit unique wheels and a brawnier rear spoiler, to tie everything together.
