Hello. You are bidding on a 1963 Ford Galaxie 500. This car was born in Oakland, California, and was equipped with a 352 engine, with a Cruise-o-matic transmission.  The color code for the car was originally Corinthian White with black interior. This car is equipped with factory Select-Air, air conditioning, factory power brakes, and factory power steering. This car is a one owner car. It spent its life in Salinas, California, and was left as an open title in 1995. The car was then brought to Arizona in 1973, and was parked in 1979. I purchased the car in November 2012 from the nephew of the original owner. I will include in the auction all the original documentation that I have for it which includes: the original 1963 California Black and Yellow plate that matches the original 1963 California title, the 1973 Arizona License plate with 1979 tags, a maintenance service record booklet that the original owner had for the Galaxie, and the original owner's manual. The car has current registration and current original 1961 Arizona plates with 1963 tags. 


Okay, now to the fun part: The car was parked in 1979 due to 4 bent rods. The mileage on the odometer when the car was parked is true, and shows 70449. When I purchased the car, I had the motor and transmission completely taken apart and rebuilt. I also had the heads both redone, and upgraded the engine form a 352 to a 390. Everything is new in the engine compartment has been replaced. The car is equipped with a factory 2 barrel carb, but i will include with the auction a date coded 1963 Ford 4 barrel carb which is very hard to find. The original power brakes system was completely rebuilt, and all the brake shoes, hoses, lines and cylinders were replaced. The whole brake system works beyond great, and you can stop on a dime. The complete original power steering system was replaced with new parts and hoses. New ball joints were added to the car, as well as tie rods and other bushings. All new shocks were added to the car also. A new gas tank and sending unit was also added to the car. A new aluminum radiator was also added to the car, but I will include the original one in the auction. The original ac compressor is hooked up, but will need to be charged with R12 coolant; I will include 2 cans that I purchased, but you will need 2 more cans for a full charge. I upgraded the charging system with an alternator. The car has a complete, new dual exhaust system: 2 3/4 inches exhaust with flow masters, an "x" pipe, and NOS exhaust tips. The car was converted to a floor shift style set up, but still has the Cruise-o-matic transmission that was taken apart and resealed. I used an original 1963 Galaxie 4 speed column and collar, as well as the complete 4 speed pedal assembly, and 1960's Ford tachometer. I did this to give the car more of a tougher look, and no one can ever tell the difference. I will include the original Cruise-o-matic column and collar, and power brake pedal if you wish to convert it back. The car has a new windshield, and new front and back windshield gaskets. It also has all new side window weatherstripping, including window sweeps and channel felts. It has new door, trunk, and engine compartment rubbers. All the chrome and stainless is re-chromed or polished. It has Firestone Pie Crust tires, with white walls flipped in, mounted on powder coated gloss black wheels, with restored dog dish poverty caps. The interior of the car was completely redone to original specs and is completely new; it's only 6 months old. I installed a completely hidden cd/Ipod player with hidden speakers; it sounds very nice. The car was equipped with seat belts, but they were badly worn, so I replaced them with new black seat belts, and 1963 black Ford original reproduction floor mats, that are now discontinued. The body on the car is very straight, and has very few imperfections. There are a few dings on the roof, and a couple of screw holes on the passenger side lower rocker, that the original owner put on the car, to pull a dent out. I did no body work to the car. It was painted semi-gloss black, and has a few scratches and paint chips, but is still very nice. The undercarriage of the car is as clean as the outside of the car. It has been cleaned and painted, and the bottom of the floors were painted in red oxide primer. The car has rock solid floors and trunk floor board, as well as solid lower rear quarters and rockers. There is no sign of any body rot. I will include with the car over $15k in receipts and proofs of purchases. There is a lot to list on this car, and I'm sure I have missed some stuff. Long story short, this car gets lots of looks. 

I have the car listed locally, so I have the right to end the auction early. Please feel free to contact me for any more questions or concerns. No scams!!! No b/s!!! No dreamers!!! Am willing to do possible trade for a Prius with low miles, or a 1920-1929 Ford Roadster or coupe hot rod, with cash. I can help with any loading, and I can hold the car for a few weeks if needed.  $1500 non refundable deposit must be made on the car when auction ends, and the car must be paid in full within 24 hours of auction ending. Any overseas buyers need to contact me before bidding on the car, and you must have more than 5 postive feedbacks before bidding. Any questions please contact me. Thank You.

Ford overlooks the Big Apple in the 2015 Mustang Convertible [w/video]

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

Ford has done it again. Like in April of 1964, there is once again an all-new Mustang Convertible sitting on the observation deck of New York City's Empire State Building. This has been in the making for a little while, with the first report that Ford would recreate the sky-high publicity stunt coming out a few weeks back.
The process of getting the Mustang up there wasn't exactly easy. A Troy, MI-based company chopped up the new droptop, a necessary evil to get the Mustang on the Empire State Building's only freight elevator that runs to the 86th floor observation deck. But it was slightly more involved than just taking the car apart. The company, DST, built a mockup of the ESB's freight elevators, and then practiced its cuts on a second pre-production Mustang Convertible (measure twice, cut once).
The result of all this work are the images you see above. Yes, sitting in the crisp, morning air of midtown Manhattan, over 1,000 feet up, is this brilliant, Triple Yellow Mustang. Take a look up top for our gallery of images from today's event. You can also scroll down for videos and images of the process leading up to the ESB debut.

Ford spotted testing new Focus RS at the Nurburgring

Thu, 26 Jun 2014

Ford is expected to be launching a revised version of the Focus ST soon, but the latest snapshots from our spy photographers at the Nürburgring suggest that the Blue Oval is already working on an even more potent example: the new Focus RS.
Though the partially disguised test mule is wearing an ST badge (along with a Dewey sticker that makes us wonder what adventures Huey and Louie are up to and what manner of duck-tail rear spoiler they may be wearing), there are several tell-tale signs that something else is afoot here. There's a larger front air dam, bigger brake calipers, dual exhaust tips (instead of the central exhaust on the ST) and a reshaped wing protruding from the trailing edge of the roof.
That may all be well and fine, but what's under the hood? We don't know yet for sure, but word has it that Ford is preparing to port over the 2.3-liter turbo four offered in the new Mustang, where it packs 305 horsepower and almost as much torque - potentially retuned to produce even more for the top-of-the-line Focus, which could channel it all to the front wheels like the last model or pack an all-wheel drive system. The Global C platform on which the Focus is based does, after all, also underpin AWD models like the Ford Escape and Lincoln MKC.

Ex-PR chief Vines accuses Ford of bugging cars, phones

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Jason 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.
