This car is being sold as a project car not as a finished car.
For sale1963 Ford Falcon 2 door hardtop. Currently has the original 260 v8 2 speed auto. The dash has been replaced. The original was butchered up. I started to replace the floor pans. The passenger side is tacked in. I have the driver’s side but it is not installed. The driver’s side torque box needs work. It also has a couple other rust areas that need attention. The trunk needs a little work. The passenger side frame has a small spot that needs work.
Over the past years I have been buying parts to fix the car up. I’ll try to list the new parts: Noisy gear-driven timing gears, Edelbrock Signature series value covers, Edelbrock oil breather cap, chrome oil pan, chrome engine bolt set, chrome coil bracket, chrome alternator brackets, chrome water pump pulley, chrome harmonic balancer pulley, chrome distributer hold-down clamp and bolt, battery tray and hold down clamp. Also have a set of ceramic coated Y-tube headers that fit 1964 -70 mustang. I was told that the mustang was built on the falcon chaise. Thought they might fit.
New kick panels, new interior dome light, new knobs for the dash, new heater plenum, new heater seal kit for rebuilding heater box, new blower motor, new dual reservoir master cylinder (as the car has disk brakes from a Ford Granada) ,new tie rod ends, new door jamb dome lamp switches, new trunk weather stripping, new door weather stripping, a spare set of tail lights.
Used parts: Mallory dual point distributor which needs some parts, chrome dual carburetor intake with Edelbrock air breather.
Car has on it at this time an Edelbrock 1404. Car does run. I have purchased another 1404 that I believe needs rebuilt. I have also purchased front and rear red arm rests. Also have a 289 5-bolt motor with another 2-speed automatic. This motor is stuck. I believe it can be rebuilt.
Some of these items are already installed on the car. |

VW going turbo-only in 3 to 4 years
Wed, 18 Sep 2013This really was a matter of when, rather than if. Volkswagen will apparently be the first manufacturer to phase out naturally aspirated engines in favor of turbocharging its full slate. VW is kind of responsible for ushering in this push towards small-displacement, turbocharged engines that's taken the industry by storm. When it dropped its direct-injection, 2.0-liter turbo in the 2005 GTI it demonstrated that strapping an iron long to an engine can enhance the powertrain as a whole. VW made fuel economy gains, while also giving a linear, non-laggy turbo experience that it has replicated, model-after-model, to this day.
Speaking with The Detroit News, Volkswagen's executive Vice President of Group Quality, Marc Trahan, told the paper that, "We only have one normally aspirated gas engine, and when we go to the next generation vehicle that it's in, it will be replaced. So three, four years maximum."
Really, it's hard to get teary-eyed about either of these engines going away. VW has access to smaller powerplants that could easily match the performance of the 2.5 five-cylinder and the 3.6 V6, while gobbling up less fuel and providing a better driving experience. What we are sad about is that a similar statement about the extinction of NA engines came from the Vice President of Powertrain Engineering at Ford, Joe Bakaj. We'd certainly get teary-eyed over a world without Ford's excellent 5.0-liter V8.
Ford Focus was best-selling nameplate in 2012
Tue, 09 Apr 2013Last August, Ford made a few waves by claiming that the Ford Focus was, at that point, the top-selling car in the world. The automaker failed to account for variations of the Toyota Corolla wearing a different name (such as the Auris and Matrix), however. With official data from Polk coming in now, Ford is able to say that the Focus was, in fact, the best-selling nameplate in the world last year.
Using new-car registrations (which doesn't factor in fleet sales), the Polk data shows that a total of more than one million Focus models around the world. Strong sales in the US and China have led to a 16 percent increase in year-over-year Focus sales from 2011 that helped to create even more of a gap between it and the second-best global seller, the Corolla.
Ford also had the Fiesta and F-Series listed in the top 10 for worldwide nameplates, but what's even more impressive is the fact that the F-Series is only sold in North America. Scroll down to see the list (compiled by Ford using Polk data) of the top global sellers last year and a press release from Ford.
J Mays on the 2015 Ford Mustang
Thu, 05 Dec 2013J Mays, head of design at Ford, may be retiring from the company after 16 years, but not before showing the world his swan song: the 2015 Mustang. Ford officially revealed its new coupe and convertible to the public at events around the world on Thursday, including a live unveiling on ABC's Good Morning America, and Mays was in attendance at the automaker's home event in Dearborn, MI, which is where we caught up with him for a few words about his new baby.
"It's a joy" to design the Mustang, Mays told Autoblog, adding that this sixth-generation coupe is his "favorite design so far." Of course, the 2015 model takes cues from all of the generations that came before it, but Mays said it was important to edit down the specific elements from previous models, leaving just enough off to let the customer "participate and fill in the blanks."
"If it doesn't sell itself, you probably aren't a Mustang fan."
