 1964 Ford  Galaxie 500 XL convertible.

This Galaxie XL is a very strong example of mid-60s muscle. She has a professionally rebuilt, bored out, 390 engine with 2 x 4 barrel Edelbrock carburetor's. She also has a rebuilt top loader four speed transmission. She runs beautifully, but still needs some additional work. The work needed would be a new paint job, some wiring attention and a few minor repairs to make her perfect. The wiring would deal with the accessories and the dash lights. I would consider this car to be a class II Galaxie. The low reserve price reflects the work needed. Class I 1964 Galaxies sell for $25,000. My reserve is much lower.

Accessories:

Correct bumper guards, both front and rear, working spotlight, Fomoco AM/FM radio, cast iron Ford “shorty” headers, Rotunda tachometer, lake pipes, padded dash, deep dish wire wheel covers, seat belts, and 1964 license plates registered to the car.All these accessories are correct to this year Ford. I also have, but have not installed, a rear deck radio antenna, an emergency brake warning light.

History:

I built this car less than two years ago. The body came from Oklahoma and is now in California so there isn’t a spot of rust. I have a complete pictorial and video history of the build. The build included new tires, brakes, clutch, shocks, exhaust system, and rear leaf springs. She also has new carpet, door panels and a new top with a glass rear window. There is less than 3000 miles since the build.

Summary:

I lost my lease on the garage I used to store this car and work on it. If you’re looking for a car that you can cruise and enjoy now and continue to tinker with, this is your car. Oh yea, one other thing ; SHE’S FAST!

Ford adding stop-start to all major model lines

Sun, 24 Nov 2013

Ford has gone all-in on its efforts to offer most of its new vehicles with a fuel-efficient EcoBoost engine, but the automaker is reportedly preparing to take another big step toward improving vehicle efficiency. Automotive News is reporting that Ford will soon expand the availability of start-stop technology, which was first offered - presumably the first non-hybrid vehicle, that is - on the 2013 Fusion (equipped with the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine) as a $295 option.
The benefit of start-stop is reduced fuel consumption as it shuts the engine off at long stops, and AN quotes Ford as saying that drivers can save more than $1,000 on fuel costs over five years. Despite this, the option hasn't been popular on the Fusion thus far, but it could be more beneficial on bigger vehicles like the F-150. Ford also said that the next-gen Edge, which was previewed in concept form at the LA Auto Show, will be equipped with auto start-stop to help make the EcoBoost engines even more efficient.

Enterprise customer billed $47k for Mustang stolen from rental lot

Sun, 05 Jan 2014

A weekend rental of a Ford Mustang GT Convertible sounds like a nice, relaxing way to burn some gas, but one Nova Scotia woman's two-day rental is turning into a months-long headache. In early October, Kristen Cockerill picked up the Mustang from Enterprise Rent-A-Car, and she returned it the following day as stipulated by the rental contract. Unfortunately, she dropped the car off on a Sunday - a day on which the particular Enterprise office is closed - and the car ended up being stolen overnight.
Now, two months later, CBC reports that Cockerill received a bill from Enterprise for the full replacement of the car totaling $47,271 (a base 2014 Mustang GT Convertible currently costs $40,349 in Canada). As it turns out, the fine print in the contract says that the renter is responsible for cars dropped off after hours until it can be inspected the next business day - this is also reflected on the key drop seen in the news report video, which states "vehicles returned after hours are the responsibility of the renter until inspected on the next business day."
It's not clear how much, if any, of that amount Cockerhill will be responsible for once her insurance company gets involved, but if the insurance company refuses to pay, Enterprise will bill the amount to the credit card she provided during her rental. While this ordeal is far over for Cockerhill, it's a good reminder for the rest of us to always read the fine print.
