Ford Galaxie 500--awesome, Low Mile Car on 2040-cars

Year:1966 Mileage:48980
Location:

Spring, Texas, United States

Spring, Texas, United States

HISTORY:


I believe that this has been a desert car all of its life, and has had four owners (a grandfather, and grandson, Prescott Automotive, and me.  I am also convinced that the mileage is true and correct based on the fantastic condition of the body , chassis, and mechanicals.




CONDITION:


I drive it once or twice a month on the weekends, and I take it to the Monthly car rally in the Woodlands, TX , but have never left it out overnight, nor do I drive it in the rain.  The 289 engine is not as hot as the 390 or 427, but it's reliable and runs flawlessly.  It can still cruise smoothly at 80-85 mph if you want to.  And it could be driven from Houston to your destination with a high degree of confidence.

What's left?  If I were to keep it, I would replace the chrome trim, the interior door panels,  rechrome the front bumper, and replace the driver's side window regulator (which rolls up and down, but not how you'd like it and is an annoyance).  Also, there is a slight drip from the transmission gasket which may or may not be due to the infrequent driving.  Also, the gas gauge works when it wants to, but I think it is just a loose ground.

If you want, I've give you any old, new or unused parts that I have kept including  the old carb, manifold, Galaxie hubcaps,  etc.

2015 Ford Mustang GT Line-Lock Burnout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

In this brief Short Cut, Autoblog's Steven Ewing demonstrates Line-Lock on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. Accessed through an on-screen performance menu, the feature temporarily locks the front brakes to help you heat up the rear tires for better traction, as you would for drag racing. The result? A 15-second smokescreen.

Shelby Mustang stars with Ethan Hawke, Selena Gomez in Getaway movie

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

Car movies. We keep watching them, they keep making them. Despite Fast & Furious 6 still blowing up the box office (No. 1 in theaters for the second straight week) and production on Transformers 4 being well underway (check out the Bugatti Veyron and Corvette Stingray as new cast members), there's still room on the marquee for more car movies. Next one up is an Ethan Hawke joint called Getaway, which prominently co-stars a Ford Shelby GT500. The first trailer for Getaway, which opens in theaters on August 30, was released yesterday and can be watched below.
The movie's plot centers around Hawke's character, former race car driver Brent Magna, who must somehow use this car, what appears to be a generation-old Shelby GT500 Super Snake he "commandeered," to save his wife. The movie's third co-star is Selena Gomez, whose character we're told is the owner of said Shelby. A 20-year-old having a car like this seems a bit far-fetched - especially in Europe - and on paper, this plot looks like it cribs liberally from Charlie Sheen's 1994 The Chase. But all we've got to go on is a brief plot description and the trailer below, so we'll withhold judgment until the studio firmly has our ticket money in its grasp.
The Shelby GT500 is, of course, no stranger to acting. Before this jump to celluloid, the most fearsome of all Mustang models starred in the return of Knight Rider to television on NBC back in 2008. That gig didn't pan out for the car, the show lasting only one season and 17 episodes. In fact, with its casting in Getaway, the Shelby GT500 is one of the few actors who escaped that debacle with a future in show biz.
