Up for sale is my "1964" Ford Galaxie 500 Fastback Hardtop!  This car is a very cool example of a "60's" custom with an attitude.  The guy I got it from threw money at it for about 3 years and I was lucky enough to be around when he was ready to let her go!  I got it to have some fun with till I got my model "A" a little further along.  Some of the work he had done before I got it includes...cleaned and fully undercoated under carriage, new flowmaster dual exhaust, new aluminum radiator, new edelbrock carberator, new edelbrock intake, new fuel line, new brake line, new fuel tank and satin black paint.  Body is very solid as is the trunk and floor pans!  Still has original spare and trunk matt.  She's runnin a "352" backed by a ford cruise-o-matic trans.  Also power steering.  All trim is in very good condition.  Interior is very nice other than the top of the rear seat has a tear on both sides but I put a cool blanket on the rear deck to go with the "60's" style I was lookin for so I just covered the top of the seat also.  The rear deck is in great shape!  All  interior lights work as well as the outside lights.  Temperature guage and gas guage do not work but is probably an easy fix.  Sending unit?  Was that way when I bought it just haven't stopped driving it enough to look into it!  All glass is good except windshield has a small crack in it the size of a nickel but does not effect your vision.  Car runs and drives great and heat works very well on all speeds.  Lowered in back with 2" blocks and air shocks and cut in front.  Car does need new exhaust manifold gaskets but they do tend to get quieter as they heat up!  I was planning on replacing them this winter as I was going to do a full under hood detailing.  This car is super cool with fully gold flaked flames and scallops on rood and pinstriped inside and out.  This car is not a 10 or 20 thousand dollar show car but would not take much to get her there if that your thing.  I think she's badass just how she is!  She screams trational "60's" custom and draws a crowd wherever she goes!  Come get her and put some finishing touches on her or leave her as is and drive and enjoy!  This car is for sale locally and will end auction if sold.  Please email me with any questions, THANKS

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.

2014 Ford Transit Connect Taxi hopes to fare thee well

Mon, 23 Sep 2013

New York City may have selected its taxi of tomorrow, but there are still plenty of municipalities across the US with citizens that depend on yellow livery cars to get them across town in a jiffy. That's why Ford is going ahead with this, the new Transit Connect Taxi.
Based on the 2014 Transit Connect, the TC Taxi boasts a number of features designed to make the compact van appeal to discerning taxi drivers and their fares, with the most notable upgrade being a standardized prep package to convert the 2.5-liter four to run on liquefied petroleum or compressed natural gas. The clean-burning fuel options will allow operators to save on fuel costs and cut down on pollution without sacrificing performance.
A lower load floor and a new twist-beam rear suspension are meant to improve the riding experience for passengers, while the longer 2014 Transit Connect sports extra cargo space as well. In addition to the CNG/LPG conversion, the Transit Connect Taxi can also be easily modified for wheelchair access. Drivers, meanwhile, will have access to optional goodies like Sync with MyFord Touch and a rear-view camera.
