1962 Ford Galaxie Convertible on 2040-cars
Waynesboro, Tennessee, United States
|
1962 Ford Galaxie Sunliner, which is a convertible. Has had some body work done by amateur, a bit rough. Needs paint. Has a good running V8, probably the 352 but could be a 390, has a 2 barrel carb so I am guessing 352 because of year of car. Has a center console and stick shift automatic trans, bucket seats but I don't think they are original, so this may be an XL Sunliner, but probably not and someone added a console to make it a clone and lost interest. Shifter works, but needs adjustment. Engine runs very well, the brakes work, it does stop but needs adjusting, maybe shoes. Does drive and shifts well, but trans has slow leak. This car has an x frame chassis, what I can see looks solid, and car sits level. Tires dry rotting from sitting but hold air for a couple of weeks or longer. I bought a new top for it when I bought it 6 years ago, it is still in the box,in the trunk. Also rear quarter sheet metal for 1 side. Full set of decent hub caps, correct originals, and good set of skirts. I start up, and then drive this car a little at least once every 2 months. I bought this car about 6 years ago, intending to restore it. I replaced the dashboard, and the one I put in looks new. And then I lost interest. The windshield has a score in it from wiper blade, otherwise clear. All the side trim is gone, and at least one fender has been replaced. The rear quarters are rusted out, and there are small holes in trunk. Floor pans were apparently replaced by amateur, and are heavy sheet metal screwed down. Look at the pictures and judge for yourself. I am selling it as is, where is. Buyer pays shipping. True mileage is anybody's guess, this car is 52 years old !! I do have a clear Tennessee title. |

Ford only automaker to make 2012 Buzz Rankings, Toyota most improved
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Ford landed itself a spot among the top 10 brands in the 2012 Buzz Rankings. The annual index scores 1,100 brands in 41 categories to determine which nameplates had the most positive buzz throughout the year.
For the third year in a row, Subway took the top honors overall with a score of 40.3, and Ford was the only automaker to break into the top 25 by earning a sixth-place finish overall. The manufacturer earned a score of 32.1 points, which was enough to push it up one spot from the 2011 Buzz Rankings. Honda managed 21.2 points overall, which is still well behind 25th-place Kohl's at 26.5 points. Toyota, Volkswagen and BMW all round out the top five automakers.
The 2012 Buzz Rankings also keep track of which brands improved the most over the past year, and this year, Toyota was the manufacturer with the largest leap forward. The Japanese automaker jumped from just 14 points in 2011 to 20.5 in 2012. Chrysler, Kia, Dodge and Volkswagen all saw sizable steps forward as well. Be sure to head over to the Brand Index site for more information.
Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4
Fri, 26 Sep 2014We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.
Ford will probably never offer two RS models at the same time
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Autocar has some sour news for fans of go-fast Ford products. According to Roelant de Waard, Ford's president of marketing in Europe, the automaker will probably never offer more than one RS performance model for sale at the same time. That statement runs contrary earlier rumblings that suggested Ford would launch its next-generation Focus RS in 2015 and follow the hatch with a spate of other vehicles with an RS badge. But de Waard has made it clear that Ford of Europe is now focused on squarely on the next Mustang, even though there may be more RS models on the way eventually.
"What is clear is that the RS shouldn't be a series, or a car badge that we have in our portfolio all the time. It is an extreme car - something more than ST," he said.
That philosophy makes plenty of sense. We loved the old Focus RS - shown above in RS500 trim - because it was generally bonkers and plenty exclusive. Diluting either aspect is sure to end in disappointment for everyone involved.
