1966 Ford Custom 500 Galaxie 4 Door Sedan 289ci Automatic on 2040-cars
Morristown, Tennessee, United States
I have a 1966 Ford Galaxie, Custom 500, 4 door, Automatic with a 289ci motor. It could possibly be a 302ci. The VIN says it's a 289, but the air cleaner that came on it says 302 as you can see by the picture. I haven't checked. I bought this as a project car for my son, but neither of us have the money or time to put in to it. I hate to see it just sit around and deteriorate. When I bought it I had to have it towed to the house. However, I have since worked on it and it does run fair. It starts right up and will sit and idle and I can put it in gear and move it around as I need to. I currently have the gas tank unhooked from the fuel pump because I don't know how long it had been sitting. I put a new fuel pump on it and I I didn't want any bad gas to get into it. I just drop the fuel hose in a bottle or can of gas to move it where I need to. I DO NOT drive it out on the highway, but I can drive it up and down the street. I really hate to get rid of it, but my son needs a car he can drive on a daily basis. Not sure on the mileage reading. As you can see it says 24,438. Probably more like 124,438 or 224,438. There are several parts in the trunk. If you have any questions feel free to ask. If you want a picture of something specific or want me to send you a video of it running or moving, just let me know. THANKS FOR LOOKING!

Ford E-Series chassis cabs and cutaways to survive mass Transit onslaught
Fri, 18 Apr 2014In March 2013, Ford announced we'd be getting chassis cab and cutaway versions of the Transit. Since incoming Transit vans will soon be rolling over the grave of the E-Series van, it was assumed that all E-Series models would go six feet under as well. According to a report from PickupTrucks.com, however, that's not the case, the report claiming that the highly modifiable E-350 and E-450 chassis cab and cutaway versions will continue being produced in Avon Lake, Ohio "at least until 2020."
Being decades old, the be-cabbed E-Series platform has found its way under an army of heavy-duty shuttle buses, work truck and ambulances. Ford spokeswoman Jessica Enoch verified the production horizon, telling Autoblog that the particular E-Series configuration "are a higher GVWR than the Transit chassis cab and cutaway (available this summer), which is more Class 2 and a new segment for us." So there you have it.
Ford-sponsored survey says a third of Brits have snapped a 'selfie' while driving [w/videos]
Fri, 08 Aug 2014Talking on the phone while driving isn't advisable, and texting while driving is downright dangerous. Considering those truths, the fact that we even need to point this out this is incredibly disturbing: taking "selfies" while behind the wheel is exceptionally stupid. But, it's a thing that a third of 18- to 24-year-old British drivers have copped to doing, according to a new study from Ford.
Ford, through its Driving Skills for Life program, surveyed 7,000 smartphone owners from across Europe, all aged between 18 and 24, and found that young British drivers were more likely to snap a selfie while behind the wheel than their counterparts in Germany, France, Romania, Italy, Spain and Belgium.
According to the study, the average selfie takes 14 seconds, which, while traveling at 60 miles per hour, is long enough to travel over the length of nearly four football fields (the Ford study uses soccer fields, but we translated it to football, because, you know, America). That's an extremely dangerous distance to not be focused on the road.
Galpin Ford GTR1 supercar debuts in Monterey
Fri, 16 Aug 2013Galpin Auto Sports has finally taken the wraps off the car we first previewed back in December, the Galpin Ford GTR1. A few weeks ago, we posted the first hints of just what the GTR1 would be capable of, with Galpin teasing that its 5.4-liter, twin-turbocharged V8 would produce in excess of 1000 horsepower, with a top speed of 225 miles per hour. Package all that in a coachbuilt body, and you have the recipe for one wicked supercar.
The price for the carbon fiber-bodied car is $1,024,000.
Now, we have all the glorious details. Galpin is targeting a production run of six cars, but if interest is strong enough, will expand its initial quote to 24 vehicles. The price for the carbon fiber-bodied car is $1,024,000. Opting for the aluminum bodywork could lower that, although it's not immediately clear by how much.
