| This RARE 1961 Ford Galaxie Sunliner turns heads everywhere it goes, and always draws the biggest crowds at the cruise in! Thumbs up every time it hits the road! People who aren't even into cars inquire and comment on how much they like this vintage ride. This Sunliner is a 100% Rust Free car! The last year of the tail fin fenders the 61 Sunliner is one of those convertibles that looks just as good with the top up as the top down. The body lines are nice and straight with all the gaps between doors & fenders, and trunk & hood even. No door sag. The hood and trunk align correctly as well open and close just like they should. It has been repainted in the factory Ford Crystal Green. I'm unsure of the age of the paint, but as you can see in the pics and video it shines very well with only a few chips/blemishes from driving which I've included close up pics of below. Being particular I would give the paint a 8 of 10. A really nice driver paint job, but not "show car" quality. The chrome is in very good condition and shows very well. The trim is also in good shape and shines up well with only a couple of very minor dings. The car also looks very good and clean underneath as well with no rust on the X-frame Chassis and all the wiring in looms tucked back on P clips. The FE 390 Ford big block engine was just gone through by the previous owner, and has a nice sounding rough idle cam. It gets it's fuel from a Holley 750cfm 4 barrel carb with electronic choke for reliability and performance. New 2.5 " exhaust from the factory cast iron headers back with Flomaster mufflers that sounds great as you can hear fro yourself in the video link I will include below. The T10 Borg Warner 4 speed transmission with competition Hurst shifter puts all the power to the Ford 9" rear end. All this combines for a very strong and reliable power plant that will have you feeling like you are in a racecar! You can just cruise her around to look good, but if you need the power it's there. Very fast for it's large size!! The interior on the car is 2 tone blue all original except for the drivers side seat panel that has been replaced, and the fresh blue OEM style carpet kit. This is really one of the highlights of the car as you can see in the photos the colors are stunning and blend together perfectly for a striking appearance. It also has a beautiful handmade custom console painted in the factory Crystal Green that houses a 3 piece gauge cluster, stereo head unit, and door activated interior lights. It looks very classy and fit's the car as if it came from the factory that way. This adds a touch of modern convenience being able to plug in your Ipod and enjoy to your favorite tunes while cruising in your 50 year old classic. The convertible top is in great shape with no tears or rips in the canvas and no cloudiness in the window. The power top works flawless with no catches that you can see for yourself in the video link posted below. The car gets it's aggressive stance from new aftermarket coil springs in the front with American Racing Daytona 17x7 wheels up front and matching 17x9 wheels in the back. It has new shocks all the way around as well as a rebuilt front end with sway bar and all new urethane bushings. It hits the road well and handles very tight with no slop or sway. VIDEO LINK: http://youtu.be/3t3ewPbo2eI Overall this an extremely clean, good looking, reliable classic car that gets a lot of attention and is very fun to drive. I just drove it to the Rod Run in the Tennessee mountains last month on a 400+ mile trip with absolutely no issue. I would get in it and drive it anywhere. Please message me or call with any questions you may have. Chris 864-617-4194 NOTE: I reserve the right to end this auction early as I also have it for sale locally.

Texas plumber shocked his old Ford F-250 is now in terrorists' hands [w/video]
Thu, Dec 18 2014Do you ever wonder what the a owner is doing with your vehicle after you trade it in? Mark Oberholtzer of Mark-1 Plumbing in Texas City, TX, has no need to imagine, but it's probably his worst nightmare. That's because an image of his old Ford F-250 is now on Twitter as a gun platform in the Syrian Civil War. While the image only appeared recently, Oberholtzer traded the truck in last November. Somehow since then the F-250 made its way from Texas to Syria. According to a report from television station WHOU, the dealer that took the trade said the pickup immediately went to auction. Unfortunately, along the whole route no one ever took Mark-1 Plumbing's name and phone number off the door. So when the image went up on Twitter, everyone knew whom the Ford previously belonged to. The plumbing company makes it abundantly clear that this whole bizarre situation is simply a coincidence, and it has absolutely no ties to the conflict in Syria. However, that isn't preventing people from phoning the business with angry calls and threats. Things are so bad that Oberholtzer keeps the phones unplugged for relief. Scroll down to watch a video of the guy's flabbergasted reaction to finding out what his F-250 is doing now. This content is hosted by a third party.

Watch Tanner Foust hustle the Fiesta ST 'round the 'Ring
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The last time we saw Tanner Foust at the Nürburgring he was sloshing an SVT Raptor from kerb to kerb. Sticking with Ford but swapping keys, this time the drift champion and Top Gear USA host goes to the opposite end of the manufacturer's tuner garage and plucks a Fiesta ST for 'Ring duty.
The 179-horsepower front-wheel-driver acquits itself well by the end of the video. But be warned, Foust doesn't set a 'Ring time and it's shot like a commercial... because that's what it is. Still, you can enjoy all two minutes and 31 seconds of it below.
Guess which brand's not on a top 10 list of best EVs (hint: it's Tesla)
Thu, Jun 22 2023Few surprises lurk in Autotrader’s list of its 10 best electric vehicles of 2023, but there is one that stands out: no Teslas. There's Hyundais and Kias, Porsches and Fords, a BMW and a Nissan. But Â… no Teslas. Although many of us admit to being over-Musked and tired of reading about him, the lack of a Tesla model on a selection of the 10 most desirable current EVs is conspicuous by its absence. Asked about this particular omission, we received this rather vague response from Autotrader spokesperson Brenna Buehler at Cox Automotive: “Tesla models were included in consideration but didnÂ’t get sufficiently high scores by the Editorial team to qualify for the top 10.” At least some Tesla offerings appeared to meet all the requirements set by the website. The manufacturers must offer 2023 model year vehicles, and they have to be sold in at least 15 states. Check. Only pure EVs were allowed on the list; there are no hybrids, plug-in hybrids or hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles. Check. The base manufacturer's suggested retail price must be less than $100,000. Check. Let the debates begin. Moving on, it should be noted that two Genesis models, a G80 sedan and GV 60 SUV, are listed, along with a Lucid Air midsize sedan, the Rivian R1T pickup, and the Porsche Taycan. Here is the full list, with the remarks and comments from Autotrader's raters. (And we've included links to Autoblog's own reviews for a deeper dive). The EVs are listed in alphabetical order by brand, so don't read anything into the order of presentation: 2023 BMW i4 BMW reboots its EV approach and comes up with a winner: Whatever you thought of BMW's first run at EV, the i3, it was missing a certain something – it didn't look or perform like a BMW. The 2023 BMW i4 corrects course with a Gran Coupe that our editors agree looks and drives like a BMW. 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning Ford's electric pickup gathers steam in its second year: The F-150 Lightning somehow synthesized decades of pickup truck knowledge with the latest and greatest EV technology and infused thoughtful details and user-friendly features. 2023 Genesis Electrified G80South Korea's luxury brand shows how to elevate the executive EV sedan without breaking the bank: Genesis, Hyundai's luxury offshoot, rethought the gasoline-powered luxury sedan, the G80, and developed the 2023 Genesis Electrified G80. Precisely as the name hints, the Electrified G80 replaces the G80's engine with an all-wheel-drive EV powertrain.
