1966 Ford Galaxie 500 Ltd / 390 4bbl / 3 Speed Auto C6 on 2040-cars
Stevensville, Michigan, United States
|
390 4bbl, 3 speed auto c6.
Beautiful interior, new brakes, new edelbrock perform rpm intake, new vacuum booster, new master cylinder, new water pump, new fuel pump and pressure regulator, new alternator, new battery, freshly rebuilt 600 cfm Edelbrock carb There's a scratch on the passenger side that you'll most likely want to get fixed and some light bubbling along the rocker panels and bottom of driver door. The underneath is fairly solid. Has some surface rust but no major issues. Someone gas welded a patch in the driver side floor board that doesn't look nice (pictured) but does the job. The trunk has a hole that was filled in with some foam but other than that there aren't any holes. Frame is solid. The body work is not pristine, it's an older restoration and wasn't done pristine. So it's not perfect, but great from 15 feet. The 390 has high end power but not much low end. The person who had it before me said they ported the heads and put a cam in it. I think they put in a pretty big cam. I believe a torque converter with a stall would help or shorter gears would help. I put a lot of new parts on the engine so it runs well and is a great cruiser right now. Leave it like it is or take it to the next level, your choice. The C6 transmission has a drip to it. It has power steering and power drum brakes. I put new 4 new wheel cylinders on it and the drums are in good shape. |

Are you the next Ford Edge? [UPDATE]
Wed, 13 Feb 2013What looks to be the next Ford Edge has been leaked in an apparent corporate Powerpoint presentation deck. Despite the thumbnail image's blurry and pixelated quality, it appears as if the next generation crossover will be staying close to its current aesthetic despite an all-new front clip with redesigned grille, headlamps, and lower fascia with integrated fog lights.
The upscale-minded Blue Oval CUV is due for a redesign in 2015, having just received a mid-cycle refresh for 2011. It isn't clear what changes lie beneath the new skin, either in terms of mechanicals or interior refinement, but we suspect Ford will be looking to put some distance between the next generation model and the new Escape, which is suddenly much more car-like and not that far off the more expensive Edge in terms of overall size, power or refinement.
UPDATE: Substituted clearer image - thanks, Sean!
NHTSA closes Ford F-Series Super Duty steering probe without recall
Wed, 05 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's investigation into 2008 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty pickups, which was originally opened last year, has now ended without a recall. NHTSA was looking into steering failures on some 336,000 trucks.
The issue rested with the steering gear - NHTSA received five complaints of failures - which was redesigned in 2005. According to the report on the matter, investigators "found evidence of broken sector shaft gear teeth and piston damage consistent with incidents of single event overload."
NHTSA investigators, however, "found no evidence of fatigue or material property defects in any of the fractures. Analysis of complaint rates by vehicle build month showed no patterns indicating potential manufacturing quality issues and no difference before and after Ford introduced design changes to the input shaft and sector shaft seals in July 2007 to address potential leak concerns," according to the report, obtained by The Detroit News.
Ford recalling nearly 24,000 Focus EV and C-Max models over door chime
Fri, 04 Oct 2013Ford will be voluntarily recalling 23,830 Focus Electric and C-Max Hybrid and Energi models equipped with push-button ignition, according to The Detroit News. Why? Because the cars don't make a noise when the driver's door is open, and are therefore in violation of federal regulations. It's not as silly as Honda's badging recall that isn't a recall, but it's close.
Actually, that's not exactly fair. The chime is supposed to come on when the driver's door is open, as it reminds drivers not to leave their cars on or leave key fobs in the car, an easy thing to forget when the cars in question make virtually no noise at idle and do not require keys in ignitions.
The recall, which Ford is conducting voluntarily, covers 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric hatchbacks and 2013 C-Max Hybrid and Energi models. The overwhelming majority, around 22,900 units, were sold in the US, while the remaining 900 units are in Canada. How many of each model are covered in the recall is not immediately clear.
