was all show no dough. I purchased this car from a collectors widow 10 years ago. She had 5 Falcons to choose from I took the most original in the best condition. The car still had inner tube tires. I did change them to tubeless tires but kept the original white wall look. I reupholstered the seats because I got tired of sitting on hog rings and the springs tore my pants. Over the last 10 years I have rebuilt the carburetor, replace the fuel/vacuum pump, replace the drum brake wheel cylinders, replaced the clutch, replaced thermostat, replaced plug, points, cap and rotor, plus the a fore mentioned tires and interior. This car is in great condition and is driven regularly. I drove it from LA to Phoenix and back last August. It has been very reliable over the years and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere. The two issues it has are a tore headliner and it is missing a Falcon emblem on the right fender. The body is very straight. Paint is faded but fair. Tires and glass are in good condition. This is a California car with very little rust and I only say that because if I say no rust somebody will find some cancer somewhere but it is very minor. This car has been both my wife and my pride and joy for many years and it is time to find another loving owner. If you love having 30 minute conversations with lunatics in the grocery parking lot and/or gas station this is the car for you! I can't drive anyplace without people going out of their way to relive their youth with a long tail of yesteryear and the Falcon they owned once but that one was blue... Truly a car the captures much attention, just look at the other people at a stop light and watch them point, thumbs up, honk, flash lights. I had people scream praise while driving on the freeway. People love this car and you will too. I am happy to respond to all questions. I have already purchased another vehicle and I am not looking to trade. Before you ask what is the lowest I will take, the answer is the highest bid. Please understand that by bidding you have committed to purchasing the car at that bid price. Thanks for looking, good luck bidding!

Detroit Three autoworkers could get huge bonuses
Mon, 06 Jan 2014For a long time, being a line worker for one of the Detroit Three has meant living with an uncertain future. With the health of American automakers on the rise, though, things are also starting to look up for the men and women building the cars. The latest sign that things aren't bad? Big profit-sharing checks.
According to The Detroit News, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler could end up paying over $800 million to 130,000 workers as part of a profit-sharing plan. According to The News, the economic impact of these profits in Michigan alone could exceed $400 million, besting the NFL's Super Bowl, MLB's All-Star Game and the NHL's Winter Classic for their economic impact.
This is the third straight year the Detroit Three have issued profit-sharing checks to UAW employees, and for many workers, the checks are as close as they'll get to a raise, due to the most recent contract between the union and the manufacturers. On average, employees at GM and Ford receive $1 for every $1 million in North American (not just the US) pre-tax profits. Chrysler, meanwhile, gets a similar deal, although the Auburn Hills-based company calculates profit sharing using 85 percent of the brand's global profits.
Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
Has the 2015 Ford Mustang gained hundreds of pounds?
Sun, 01 Jun 2014Automakers face competing interests when it comes to developing a new generation of vehicle. On the one hand, companies want to build their cars to be safer and better handling, with more equipment and maybe even larger dimensions over the model it's replacing. On the other hand, they strive to keep weight down to the benefit of both performance and fuel consumption. Usually something has to give, and in the case of the new 2015 Ford Mustang, those efforts may have resulted in a weight penalty of two or three hundred pounds.
This according to Blue Oval modifier Steeda Autosports, which states that "the 2015 Mustang ended up gaining 200-300 pounds in this remake". Despite the Mustang not being on the market yet, it would appear the leading Ford aftermarketer has been given early access to the 2015 model to help jumpstart its tuning efforts (a rather common development among trusted tuners). If Steeda's assertion is accurate, that would make the challenge of getting the new pony car up to speed for both Ford and aftermarket customizers like Steeda that much greater.
We're waiting for official word from Ford on the veracity of Steeda's claim, but if true, it's bound to be a bit of disappointing news for legions of Blue Oval performance enthusiasts. Watch this space for more.
