Outstanding convertible very well cared for over many years. Body is laser straight, paint excellent, interior superb. All original with 1 exterior repaint many years ago. Less than 80,000 actual miles.

Paint: excellent with very few flaws. Body panels are not only straight, but all body lines are at factory settings and doors, trunk and hood all open and close like a brand new car.

Interior: Unbelievably well preserved all original interior. All seams, accents, and vinyl and plastic parts are like new. Vinyl is supple. Dash is not cracked or warped. Carpet is excellent but is faded in a few areas. Dye it and it will look like new. There is no musty smell.

Engine: Runs excellent. Does not knock, miss or burn any oil. Drive anywhere in confidence. I took it on a 2,000 plus mile vacation with no issues. Currently has an exhaust manifold leak.

Top: Completely serviceable but has some dark staining starting to show. Another item that can be dyed and it will look like new. Has perfect glass rear window. Top boot is original, fits perfectly and is also still in excellent condition. Top is aligned correctly and goes up and down fast.

Misc: Tires are excellent, maybe 90% of tread left. Whitewalls. Factory spinner hubcaps are excellent. Stainless skirts are like new. I added aftermarket cruise control & it works like it should. AM radio works fine, as do wipers and all other accessories except clock. Glass is all excellent. Although I have owned this car for about 12 years or so, I have never waxed it and never armoralled the vinyl. I just keep it clean and dry.

Rust: None except surface rust on a few underside areas where there is no undercoating.

I looked for a top-tier 65 Galaxie 500 XL for years before I bought this one and it has not disappointed me. It will not disappoint you either. Call Mike 719-660-5504 for any additional details.

As always, no warranty is expressed or implied. International bidders welcome. Buyer is responsible for shipping. I will make car available for pickup.

I will be happy to provide any additional photos you might want.

Ford Focus ST, Fiesta ST buyers to get free Octane Academy driving school

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

The Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST have created plenty of excitement in the sport compact segment, and Ford is looking to make sure that owners are driving and enjoying their cars to the best of their abilities. As an added bonus for buying one of these sporty hatchbacks, Ford will provide a complimentary ST Octane Academy session to be held at the Miller Motorsports Park in Utah.
Attendees will be responsible for travel and lodging, but Ford will provide the driving school free of charge. Included in this two-day trip, ST owners will get class instruction and driving instruction in prepped Focus ST and Fiesta ST models on the track and autocross course. Some karting action will also be involved as will a tour of Ken Block's Hoonigan Racing headquarters located nearby. If this doesn't sound like enough fun, there is also an optional day of activities that includes some more track time in a Mustang GT and off-road instruction in an F-150 SVT Raptor.
Ford told us that those who have already purchased a Focus ST or Fiesta ST will still be able to attend the performance driving school, but the press release, which is posted below, makes it sound like it applies to original owners only. Ford has yet to announce its schedule for the ST Octane Academy or prices for additional activities or guests.

Ford of Europe celebrates Mondeo's 20th anniversary

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Ford's European operations are celebrating a milestone of sorts as the Mondeo, the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter D-segment sedan in the old country, celebrates its 20th anniversary. The mid-sizer, which was sold in the US for a short time as the Contour, has been a far more popular vehicle in Europe - even receiving regular praise from one Jeremy Clarkson.
Narrated by Cockney actor Ray Winstone, the video goes through the Mondeo's years and how it's evolved from 1993 to the as-yet-unreleased fifth-generation model, which is essentially the same as the Ford Fusion that's sold in America. Take a look below for the full video from Ford of Europe.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
