Ford Galaxie 500--awesome, Low Mile Car on 2040-cars

Year:1966 Mileage:48980
Location:

Spring, Texas, United States

HISTORY:


I believe that this has been a desert car all of its life, and has had four owners (a grandfather, and grandson, Prescott Automotive, and me.  I am also convinced that the mileage is true and correct based on the fantastic condition of the body , chassis, and mechanicals.




CONDITION:


I drive it once or twice a month on the weekends, and I take it to the Monthly car rally in the Woodlands, TX , but have never left it out overnight, nor do I drive it in the rain.  The 289 engine is not as hot as the 390 or 427, but it's reliable and runs flawlessly.  It can still cruise smoothly at 80-85 mph if you want to.  And it could be driven from Houston to your destination with a high degree of confidence.

What's left?  If I were to keep it, I would replace the chrome trim, the interior door panels,  rechrome the front bumper, and replace the driver's side window regulator (which rolls up and down, but not how you'd like it and is an annoyance).  Also, there is a slight drip from the transmission gasket which may or may not be due to the infrequent driving.  Also, the gas gauge works when it wants to, but I think it is just a loose ground.

If you want, I've give you any old, new or unused parts that I have kept including  the old carb, manifold, Galaxie hubcaps,  etc.

Ford recalling nearly 5,700 2014 F-150s for power steering issue

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

Ford is recalling 5,675 of its 2014 F-150 pickups over an issue with the electric power steering system. There haven't been any injuries or accidents due to the issue.
Ford spokesman Mike Levine told Autoblog that the "electric power-assisted steering and motor position sensor gear were incorrectly installed by a supplier," leading to the recall.
While the recall is larger on the surface, it's important to note that only 260 trucks have been delivered to customers. The remaining pickups are currently en route to dealers. The affected vehicles were manufactured between May 26 and June 19.

Fiat boss Elkann being mentored by... Bill Ford?

Tue, 26 Mar 2013

Fiat Chairman John Elkann has been turning to an unusual source for advice on the car business. While speaking during an interview with The Detroit News, Elkann said he often asks Bill Ford Jr. for advice on how to proceed with the turnaround at Chrysler. "It's great to have the opportunity to share this with someone like Bill, who has experienced many things and gone through many things ... especially linked to Detroit." Elkann said.
As the Agnelli family heir, Elkann has inherited a long and fruitful friendship with the Ford family. While Giovanni Agnelli built his first Fiat four years before Henry Ford created his first vehicle, it was Ford that showed Agnelli the benefits of mass production and helped pave the way for what would become the Fiat empire.
Giovanni's grandson, Gianni, helped mentor Bill Ford when he was elected chairman of Ford Motor Company. Now, Ford is returning the favor by helping Elkann navigate the automotive industry's tumultuous waters.

Riding along in Ford's bonkers Fiesta ST Global RallyCross car [w/video]

Wed, 28 Aug 2013



The Mountune-worked Fiesta ST GRC does 0-to-60 mph in 1.9 seconds.
On any given day, and every single weekend, there's at least one parking in the country invaded by manufacturer and team trucks. The be-chromed beasts and their 53-foot trailers are slotted into rows, men and women decorate the lot with orange cones to mark the invisible tracery of a temporary track, cars get unloaded, crews fret over them. The ritual can be as beautiful as the sunrise to those with enthusiast hearts, but it's just as common.
