Year:1968 Mileage:100000
Location:

McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania, United States

For your consideration you will find two 1968 Galaxies.  One car is a 500 and the other is an XL.  I only have a title for the 500, not the XL.  So you can take both of these cars to make a nice one.  

About the cars

Both:
Need restored
Must be towed from property within two weeks of auction end
Better than many projects I have seen
Haven't been in the trunks, they might be packed with parts/goodies - not sure

The XL:
  • Believe is a 390 car
  • No title for this one
  • No motor or trans
  • Frame is solid
  • The body looks good for a solid restoration
  • Rare flip headlights 
  • Has a 9" rear
  • Is a Fastback


The 500:
  • Believe is a 352 car
  • Was on the road in the 90s
  • No motor or trans
  • The frame had issues but was repaired to be a driver
  • Rare shoulder belt
  • Has a 9" rear end
  • Is a fastback



These cars would be good for a full restoration, or make a driver, even a race car.  I was going to restore one to be perfect and then turn the other into a race car.  I lost my storage last week and I don't want them to sit out.  I have two cars to do in front of these so they must go.  

Special note:
You have to tow these.  And they simply cannot stay on the property much longer so your promptness is a must!  There are a lot of parts in both of these cars.  I haven't inventoried to see if anything is missing. Floors seem decent in the XL but I haven't put these cars on the lift.  I pulled them from the barn a few weeks ago and here they are waiting for your restoration.  These are nice high dollar cars when done!

Ford, Volvo top 2014 EyesOn Design awards

Fri, 17 Jan 2014

Each year at the Detroit Auto Show, the top vehicle designs are recognized with the prestigious EyesOn Design award for production and concept vehicles. This year, the 32 EyesOn Design judges (comprised of current and former vehicle designers including Chrysler designer and SRT president Ralph Gilles, Kia designer Peter Schreyer and retired General Motors designer Wayne Cherry) handed out three awards for the Best Concept Vehicle, Best Production Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials.
Beating out the Mercedes C-Class and Ford F-150, the 2015 Ford Mustang was named the Best Production Vehicle as the top auto show debut at this year's Detroit show. The 2014 Volvo Concept XC Coupe took home awards as the Best Concept Vehicle and for its Innovative Use of Color, Graphics and Materials.
Considering the Volvo's primer grey hue and subtle orange accents, it was a rather surprising winner for Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials over flashier concepts like the Toyota FT-1 and our Editors' Choice top pick, the Kia GT4 Stinger. Other vehicles in the running for the concept car award include the GT4 Stinger and Audi Allroad Shooting Brake

White House clears way for NHTSA to mandate vehicle black boxes

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

At present, over 90 percent of all new vehicles sold in the United States today are equipped with event data recorders, more commonly known as black boxes. If the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gets its way, that already high figure will swell to a full 100 percent in short order.
Such automotive black boxes have been in existence since the 1990s, and all current Ford, General Motors, Mazda and Toyota vehicles are so equipped. NHTSA has been attempting to make these data recorders mandatory for automakers, and according to The Detroit News, the White House Office of Management Budget has just finished reviewing the proposal, clearing the way. Now NHTSA is expected to draft new legislation to make the boxes a requirement.
One problem with current black boxes is that there's no set of standards for automakers to follow when creating what bits of data are recorded, and for how long or in what format it is stored. In other words, one automaker's box is probably not compatible with its competitors.

First 500 European Ford Mustangs reserved in 30 seconds [w/video]

Thu, 29 May 2014

We're pretty sure that any initial concerns Ford had about selling the redesigned Mustang in Europe have been lessened considerably, after the first 500 Euro-spec 2015 Mustangs were been reserved in just 30 seconds. Moreover, 9,300 people attempted to snag one of the coveted orders for the all-new muscle car. Yes, Mustang, you should do quite well across the pond.
The registration event was held during the UEFA (pronounced yu-eh-fa) Champions League Final between Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid.
"We knew there was huge excitement building for the new Ford Mustang coming to Europe, but the response during the UCL Final was overwhelming," said Roelant de Waard, VP of marketing, sales and service for Ford's European outfit. "It was a truly special way to kick off the Ford Mustang era in Europe."
