The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Vehicle ran bad when parked in early 70's. Dad removed heads and car has sat ever since. some dents, snow depressed roof. tires missing or flat. little rust here in eastern Oregon, wear and tear by snow and summer heat. dash well preserved. upholstery ruined. dents fixable. candidate for restore. I believe the odometer shows 80 some odd thousand."

This Galaxie was driven by  a local woman who still lives and works here in town.  She isn't sure who owned the title but that was 40 years ago!  My father owned a gas station/repair/tow business.  I still own a tow business and if anyone expresses much interest in this vehicle i'll go thru the old business records and see if I can find a title for it but lets assume it was never transferred.  It could be her husband or whoever at the time had something to do with her driving this car.  I know my dad worked on it and that probably explains why he ended up with the car.  He had me remove the heads shortly before I went in the army in '73 and as mentioned it's been sitting on the ranch ever since.  I'm sure the engine was never overhauled and the car is all OEM with no restoration attempts and such.  We are in the extreme east side of Oregon, not much rust here and as you can see in the photos the dash is in great shape.  Of course the upholstery is shot.  the intake manifold for the engine is in the back seat, If the heads are still here it'd be a major project to find them.  tires are missing or worthless.  I don't think there are any dents that can not be removed by any body shop, there is some putty on the drivers side over the rear wheel well..

   I don't know what else to tell you but being a factory black/red car with factory air I think it will be a head turner if someone will take it on.  I copied this info from the data tag;  body; 54B or 34B, COLOR; A, TRIM 25, DATE 080, DSO 72, AXLE 6, TRANS; 2 AND SERIAL #; 2J52X150287.  It has a manual shifter on the column, I don't see how it'd fit on the floor with that big polarair ac unit in there!, the seats look manual (lever on LH side.)

I respond well to E mail so write and i'll always answer.   I understand the title issue, owning a tow business I know there are ways of dealing with it.   About payment and shipping.  I'll tow it as far as La Grande Or. or Boise Id. for a flat bid, any further will be at the going rate.  I'll help load if you come to rescue it.    I'll take a check or pay pal but if it's a personal check make arrangments so it clears before loading.  IE;  going to bank (weekday) etc.  in fact, you should plan on my doing that even with a cashiers check.  I can also take some plastic, when the device is working!

Mercury rises around sexy Cougar pack

Sat, May 30 2015

With a slightly larger body and a more luxurious interior, the Mercury Cougar doesn't carry quite as much cachet among pony car enthusiasts as the venerable Ford Mustang. But don't try to make that argument around Cougar super-fan Mike Brown. Since starting his Cougar collecting in 1988, Brown has become an absolute expert on the model, and he claims to have owned 400 of the Mercury pony cars in that time. Ten of them are in his collection today, not to mention a heap of spare parts in the garage. Check out some of the rarer members of Brown's fleet and allow him to tell you about them in this interesting interview from Electric Federal.

Here's your chance to vote for the best-looking state police cruiser

Thu, Jul 18 2019

Across the country, state police generally drive the same types of vehicles. Right now, the most common cruisers are Ford Explorers, Chevrolet Tahoes, and Dodge Chargers, with some exceptions sprinkled in. The differentiation comes through in the livery, which can range from simplistic badging to busy stripes. Each year, the American Association of State Troopers (AAST) holds a fun contest to determine which state has the coolest-looking cars, and 2019 voting has just opened. We discovered the contest after Motor1 posted about the Florida Highway Patrol's newest addition to its fleet, a Dodge Challenger R/T. The musclemobile is, without question, the coolest car in the competition, and it might have the best livery too. But that doesn't mean it's going to win, as contests like this often turn into hotbeds for chest-beating homers.  The AAST is posting results on Facebook, and as of July 17, 2019, Kentucky and Nebraska are blowing the rest of the states out of the water. Florida is in ninth place with 4,653 votes compared to first-place Kentucky's 14,699. New Jersey is in last place with only 107 votes. As the internet goes, this will likely be determined by how many times the contest is shared across social media.  The Challenger isn't the only eye candy, either. Not every state participated, but those that did came correct with the photography, including Nebraska posing its car in front of a freakin' tornado. Others staged their cars with helicopters in the background, some set the car in front of the gorgeous landscapes their states have to offer, and others posed with dogs. Because who doesn't love dogs? No matter which car wins, it's cool to see the various designs all in one place. Check out the gallery above and vote for your favorite on the AAST's survey. The survey will close on July 30, 2019.
