THIS IS AN AMAZING 1967 FORD GALAXIE 500. IT HAS BEEN REDONE TO A LARGE EXTENT AND NEEDS ONLY SMALL THINGS TO MAKE IT A BEAUTIFUL CRUISE IN CAR. IT HAS BEEN REPAINTED AND TWO NICKLE SIZED HOLES IN THE REAR QUARTERS HAVE BEEN LEADED IN AND FIXED THE RIGHT WAY, OTHER THAN THAT I KNOW OF NO BONDO IN THE CAR. IT HAS ALL OF THE TRIM AND JUST NEEDS THE SIDE TRIM PUT BACK ON, I HAVE IT ALL AND MANY EXTRAS IF YOU EVER NEED THEM FOR THE LOWER TRIM PARTS. IT WILL HAVE A NEW SUMMIT RACING STARTER IN IT BY THE TIME THE AUCTION IS OVER. COMES WITH EXTRA TRANSMISSION COOLER LINES, THE EXTRA TRIM I TALKED ABOUT, AN EXTRA DASH PAD TO MAKE IT LOOK NEW AS WELL AS ONE ALREADY IN THE CAR, EXTRA REAR INTERIOR PANELS IN WHITE, THE FRONT DOOR CARDS ARE WHITE NOW AND ARE THE ONLY THING ON THE INTERIOR THAT DOESN'T MATCH. ALSO WILL COME WITH AN ENTIRE FRONT END POLYURETHANE BUSHING KIT THAT WILL MAKE IT HANDLE MUCH BETTER. MANY MISC. HOSES FASTENERS AND CLIPS AS WELL AS A 1967 FORD AND MERCURY SERVICE MANUAL AND SOME OTHER LITTLE THINGS I CANT REMEMBER RIGHT NOW. THE ENGINE HAS BEEN REDRESSED WITH ALL NEW ACCESSORIES INCLUDING A NEW ALTERNATOR, WATER PUMP POWER STEERING PUMP STARTER SOLENOID, ALL NEW OR POWDERCOATED BRACKETS AND BELTS AND HOSES. NEW DISTRIBUTOR, HARMONIC BALANCER, PLUGS WIRES AIR FILTER AND BATTERY ALL IN THE LAST YEAR. BASICALLY THE ENGINE BLOCK, INTERNALS, INTAKE AND CARB ARE ORIGINAL, HOWEVER THE INTAKE IS NOT THE ORIGINAL GALAXIE INTAKE IT IS A FORD INTAKE BUT WE BELIEVE IT TO BE FROM A HIGHER PERFORMANCE FORD MODEL 289. THE CARB HAS BEEN DECODED AS AN AUTOLITE 4 BARREL AND ALL THIS MAKES THIS THING FLY. IT DOES HAVE STANDARD DRUM BRAKES THAT WORK GREAT BUT THEY ARE NOT POWERED OR DISK. NEW VALVE COVERS MAKE THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT LOOK FANTASTIC TOO. THE STEERING COLUMN IS RED SINCE THE ORIGINAL COLOR OF THE INTERIOR WAS RED. OW ITS WHITE ON BLACK AND OTHER THAN THE ROOF LINER AND STEERING COLUMN ITS ALL BLACK. NEW L.E.D BRAKE AND RUNNING LIGHTS WERE INSTALLED TO MAKE THEM BRIGHTER AT NIGHT. THE 15' CRAGARS AND BF GOODRICH 225/70/15 ARE NEW WITH ONLY 33 MILES ON THEM. THE INTERIOR WAS SOUNDPROOFED WHEN THE NEW CARPET WENT IN AND IS MUCH QUIETER THA ORIGINAL. IT HAS A PIONEER STEREO NEW 6X9 REAR SPEAKERS NEW 4 INCH FRONT SPEAKERS AND AN AMP AND SUB WIRED INTO THE TRUNK. SEEMS TO CUT OUT SOMETIMES BUT SOUNDS AWESOME FOR A CRUISE IN OR A DAY OUT. MY FIRST CAR WAS A 1967 GALAXY 500 AND I WAS HIT BY A DRUNK DRIVER, IT WAS FIXED BUT WAS NEVER THE SAME AND MY DAD SOLD IT IN 1988. I ALWAYS WANTED ANOTHER ONE AND THEN IN 2011 MY DAD GOT CANCER. I SOLD MY VICTORY MOTORCYCLE AND FOUND THIS ONE AND BOUGHT IT FOR HIM TO HAVE SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING ON AFTER HIS SURGERY. HE DID ALL THE WORK AND RECOVERED AND SINCE THEN WE HAVE HAD A BLAST WORKING ON IT JUST FATHER AND SON. HOWEVER AT 43, I JUST FOUND OUT I AM HAVING A SECOND CHILD AND AM FORCED TO SELL THIS TO HELP PAY FOR A MINI VAN. YIKES I KNOW, BUT IT SERVED ITS PURPOSE AND ITS TIME TO GO TO SOMEONE WHO HAS TIME TO SHOW IT OFF. MY INSURANCE COMPANY, HAGARTY ASKED I INSURE IT FOR 11,200.00 LAST YEAR BUT I KNOW I WONT GET THAT MUCH RESERVE IS JUST TO PROTECT THE MONEY THAT WE HAVE IN THE CAR AND I THINK IS VERY FAIR. I CAN BE REACHED AT THREE THREE OH THREE FIVE THREE ZERO ONE FOUR NINE AND WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE BEFORE BIDDING ON THIS GREAT CAR. IF I THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE I'LL TRY AND ADD IT. THANKS AND GOOD LUCK BIDDING. OH AND ONE MORE THING IN THE PICTURES YOU WILL NOTICE A BLACK STRIPE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE CAR, ITS A DECAL NOT PAINT, DAD WANTED TO SEE WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE WITHOUT THE TRIM SO WE HAD A COMPLETE DECAL SET CUT THAT WILL ALSO GO WITH THE CAR.

Volkswagen could outsell GM in China for the first time in nine years
Fri, 27 Dec 2013As of the end of November, Volkswagen had sold 70,000 more cars than General Motors in China in 2013, making it appear inevitable that VW will outsell GM there. The feat would return the German brand to the top of chart in China for the first time in nine years, but even the second-place getter won't be complaining too loudly: both automakers sold more than three million vehicles in a market pegged to hit 16 million sales this year.
Volkswagen said it could have sold more cars if it had had more production capacity in China. The arrival of a new-to-China Audi A4, a China-built A3 sedan, the VW Bora and Skoda Octavia, as well as an $18.2-billion-euro investment in the country to construct new factories, means VW should see its numbers grow in 2014. GM's lineup is expanding next year, too, adding four Chevrolet nameplates and two vehicles to its Baojun brand as it tries to get to five million in sales by 2015.
Among other automakers, Ford benefited from good product and woes for Japanese automakers over a territorial dispute with China, outselling Toyota by almost 32,000 units through the end of November. The Ford Focus is China's best-selling vehicle so far this year.
Ford Fusion production scaled back just 3 months after it was accelerated
Mon, 02 Dec 2013Three months after kicking off production of the Ford Fusion at its Flat Rock, MI factory, Ford Motor Company is taking steps to trim output in the face of heavily discounted competition from Toyota and a growing supply of vehicles.
The addition of Fusion production in Flat Rock - which also builds the Mustang - was meant to be what pushed the handsome mid-sizer past its arch-nemesis, the Toyota Camry. An extra facility building Fusions was also meant to curb the growing demand for Ford's highly profitable sedan.
But with word that Flat Rock would take "approximately" one extra week off for the holidays combined with an 88-day supply of Fusions - reportedly due in no small part to what Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas called "aggressive discounting of the Camry" - some analysts are now beginning to wonder if Ford may have overextended itself by adding a second Fusion facility to the mix.
2015 Ford S-Max adds all-wheel drive, adaptive steering
Fri, 03 Oct 2014The Blue Oval's 'One Ford' mantra has seen rapid commonization of the automaker's products across markets, but North America still has to look from afar at most of the company's Max-branded people movers, including this new S-Max. That's a bit of a shame - we like the space efficiency and above-average driving dynamics of the C-Max models we do get, but seeing this updated seven-seat small minivan makes us want the One Ford initiative to extend even further.
The new model's changes include an updated powertrain range including a 1.5-liter EcoBoost four with 158 horsepower, and a larger, 237-horsepower, 2.0-liter model, along with a pair of revised lower-emissions 2.0-liter diesels. The big news, however, is the advent of available all-wheel drive, something that hasn't been offered since the S-Max first went on sale back in 2006.
On the technology front, the S-Max is the first European model to receive Ford Adaptive Steering, a variable-ratio technology we recently sampled in a prototype Fusion that is expected to go into production on the next-generation Edge. The S-Max also receives a new aluminum-intensive integral link rear suspension, packaged to continue to fit up to 32 different seating combinations. Safety equipment is always a prime concern in kinschleppers like the S-Max, and to that end, this new model receives pre-collision assist technology and LED headlamps.
