1966 Ford Galaxie 500 4 door

This is a great original car. Great overall condition, runs and drives great. This is an unrestored, unmodified, untouched original car. It is the original paint, no damage, no repairs and all the doors, hood and trunk fit great with even gaps. It has all the trim, hubcaps and it is complete. It shows just under 56,000 and that is the original miles. I purchased it from the family who owned it all its life. Please read below for all the details.

Engine:

390 Cubic inch

Automatic

Power steering

The car has had a recent tune up, transmission service, brakes checked and carb rebuilt. It goes down the road really well, no knocks, no smoke. It runs, shifts and idles great. When I say recent, it has only 10 miles on it since work has been done by a professional shop.

New tires.

Interior:

The front seat has no rips although the bottom on the driver’s side the material is separated. It may be able to be stretched and fixed.

The back seat is perfect.

The dash has no cracks and has good color.

The carpet is worn and torn on the driver’s side only at the door.

The door panels are worn at the top and bottom although in good shape overall.

The pillar covers are broken and a new set, the right color comes with the car.

The headliner is in good shape except for a small tear near the back seat coat hook.

I have the steering wheel chrome horn ring, it is not on the wheel.

Exterior:

Original paint. It is faded although I think it could be buffed out to drive it as is.

There are a few rust spots, although not big. They are on the passenger left hand door, the size of a quarter. The two rear fenders at the bottom have a little rust. The floors are good, no rust. No rust in the door jambs. The frame and underbody is good.

The trunk has rust on the lip where the latch is. Also the trunk floor has rust although only pin holes through the floor. Easily fixable.

All the trim and emblems are on the car.

The outside mirrors are off the car, I have them and they will come with the car.

The front bumper is rusty on the bottom half. No thru holes, although a little rusty.

The back bumper has surface rust. It is in good shape

Both bumpers are straight, no dents and they are not bent.

All the trim around all the doors, windows, side and around the wheel wells is very good.

All emblems are there.

All glass is good, no cracks.

The light bezels, front and back are good along with the lenses.

The grille has only one small dent which can easily be corrected.

 

This is great original car that runs and drives great, is in great original condition, is very straight and comes with all the parts. You can drive it now and fix it as you go or just leave it like this, buff it out and have a great time for very little money.

Pickup only, no delivery.

Please arrange for pickup soon after winning as the place where I have it stored inside was recently sold and I will no longer have that storage location.

Deposit within 5 days, via Paypal or cash or certified check.

No trades please.

Please feel free to ask questions.

Ford cleans up painting process with cameras

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

Knowing how the bacon gets made rarely entices us and, in the same vein, the same usually goes for knowing about how new cars get painted. But in both instances, however, quality - or a lack thereof - is instantly obvious. In terms of the latter, Ford is showing off its new paint quality process with 3D Dirt Detection Technology to find imperfections in vehicle paint more easily and more quickly.
This process - being performed on the F-150 SVT Raptor above - uses 16 computer-controlled cameras to create a three-dimensional model (inset) of the vehicle to detect flaws in the paint including dirt particles, which can then be buffed out manually. Ford says this new technology cuts down on time spent looking for paint flaws and gives workers more time to correct those that are discovered.
Currently, Ford only uses its 3D Dirt Detection Technology system at three factories (the Dearborn, MI facility, along with those in Louisville, Kentucky and Valencia, Spain), but it will soon spread to five more plants in North America. Ford has released a video and press release for this innovative and unexpectedly interesting process, both of which are posted below.

Ford announces free brake pad offer if customers stop by dealers

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers.
"We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts.
Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1.

Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation

Sat, 09 Aug 2014



The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.
