1963 Ford Falcon Futura Sprint Convertible. This car is original and does not appear to have been repainted or the drive line apart. Comes with original 260 V8 and auto trans. I have the keys. Fenders, doors, hood and trunk lid are solid. Rocker panels are solid. Interior is MISSING the original bucket seats, console and dash tach. The console mount is there. Everything else for the interior is there including the original radio, rear seats and steering wheel. Both quarter panels have rust issues. I am including some patch panels I cut off another 63 falcon. The torque boxes are rusted and need replaced. The floors are solid. There are some rust issues between the rocker panels and the floor area where the seats mount. There is some rust where the drivers side fender attaches. All glass is included and in good shape. The rear bumper is missing. The bumper brackets are included. The front grille, headlight buckets and covers are included. The tires are brand new radials mounted on the original rims. The rims were painted black before the new radials were mounted. VIN 3H15F189144 clear PA title in my name. No BS about someone else has the title. I have too many projects. This car could be restored but would need work at rust areas at the torque boxes and along the rocker areas. I haven't tried to fire the engine. Has sat in my garage for years. Would also make a great donor car if you have a six cylinder four lug wheel convertible. This car has all of the original 5 lug wheels. Car is sold as is with no warranty. I have tried to describe this car as accurately and honestly as I can. If you have zero feed back do not bid on this car. I will cancel your bid. I don't live on the computer so if you are serious you may call me on my cell phone (570)975-9916. Check my feedback, I don't play games and don't expect any from the buyer of this car. Good luck bidding. No reserve and it is NOT for sale locally so whoever wins it gets it. Buyer responsible for pick up and final payment within 7 days of auction close. Thanks and good luck.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky
Fri, 24 Aug 2012It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
Has the auto industry hit peak hybrid?
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Hybrids are known for their great fuel economy and low emissions, but it looks like given current market conditions, only about three percent of new car consumers are willing to pay the premium for them. A new study from IHS/Polk finds that the hybrid market share among overall US auto sales are falling, despite more models with the technology on sale than ever before.
The study examined new car registrations in March from 2009 through 2014. In that time, the auto industry grew from 24 to 47 hybrid models available to consumers, but market share for the powertrain remained almost stagnant in that time. As of 2009, hybrids held 2.4 percent of the market; it fell slightly to 2.3 percent in 2010 and grew to 3.3 percent in 2013. However, 2014 showed a drop back to 3 percent. Overall hybrid sales have been growing since 2010, but they just aren't keeping up with the total auto market.
According to IHS/Polk, this isn't what you would expect to see. Usually, each new model in the market brings along with it a boost in sales. The growth in hybrid models 2009 to 2014 should have shown a larger increase in share for the segment.
Ford to announce Mulally retirement, Fields CEO as early as May 1
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Ford CEO Alan Mulally may be about to announce his long-rumored retirement from the Blue Oval, according to a pair of insiders who spoke to Bloomberg. An official statement on the succession could arrive as soon as May 1. Chief Operating Officer Mark Fields is rumored to step up as the new CEO. The company is said to be readying the announcement soon to ensure an orderly transition of power, according to the insiders.
Mulally's retirement from Ford has been a hot topic for a while. He was seriously rumored last year to be leaving the automaker to take over as the CEO of Microsoft. The board even said at one point that it was okay with them if he stepped down early. However, the CEO maintained he would stay with the business through at least the end of 2014. Fields has been rumored as a frontrunner to take over the top spot at the company since he was promoted to COO.
For the moment, Ford isn't officially confirming any of these plans. "We don't comment on speculation. We do have succession plans in place for our key leadership. We take succession planning very seriously," said Susan Krusel, Ford Global News Manager, to Autoblog.
