This is a 1962 Ford Falcon. The floor boards, quarters,
doors, trunk all show no signs of rust
holes or patching. The paint is driver quality with some dings, blemishes and
scratches. The paint is 7 years old, it is base coat clear and is very shiny.
The hood, doors and trunk all line up and shut properly. The rear wheel well
lips have been flattened to accommodate the Ford 8” rear and the wider tires
but they are solid and not cut just flattened. The frame rails have been tied together for a higher
horsepower engine The glass is tinted and all in good condition. The interior
was completely redone and is in good condition. It is dark leather ostrich
print with plain leather gray outer covering. The headliner and door panels all
match. Engine is a rebuilt 1971 Ford 351 Windsor bored .030 with a
mild cam. Stock heads and an aluminum intake, 650 HOLLEY carb. Engine was never
dinoed. I would guess about 375 to 400
HP. This is a nice driver motor not too much power. Cam sounds great and good
on gas. Car runs cool with a 1971 Mustang radiator. Motor, trans and rear do
not drip oil. Transmission is a C4 auto with a 2000 stall. HURST Quarter
stick shifter. Rear end is a ford 8” with 279 gear for highway driving. We did
have a 355 gear in it and it was kind of low for highway traveling. All lights, turn signals, back up lights, gas guage, window winds work.
Brakes are next to new. We have just painted the wheels black and installed four new
tires, Rear -235/60/14, Front 205/70/14. We also added a ford rocker stripe and
a new set of air shocks to raise the rear 3”. That is the way the car is being
sold. In the one video from last month the car had silver wheels and sat lower so I
don’t want to confuse anyone The following is a list of what does not work SPEEDOMETER- No cable attached C4 & falcon don’t match
up. RADIO- This was a radio delete car. No antenna hole and
installed radio not wired EMERGENCY BRAKE- Cable from lever to first connection is
missing. But the cable from there to the drums is there and works HEATER- The core is missing but the blower motor works on
high and low. It just need the core put in. I tried to the best of my ability to describe this car
accurately. It is a nice street rod, driver ready. If you come to pick the car up and you feel that I misrepresented
the car, YOU DON’T HAVE TO TAKE IT! |

2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E, Volvo XC40 Recharge score high in IIHS tests
Thu, Apr 22 2021New electric cars continue their streak of impressive crash test results. The two latest to go through Insurance Institute for Highway Safety testing are the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E and the 2021 Volvo XC40 Recharge. The former earned a Top Safety Pick award, and the latter picked up the Top Safety Pick+ commendation. Both vehicles got the top "Good" rating in every crash test, as well as the "Superior" rating for vehicle-to-vehicle collision prevention. They deviate when it comes to headlights and vehicle-to-pedestrian collision prevention. Because the Volvo has headlights rated "Good" on all trims, it got that extra "+" on its Top Safety Pick award. The Ford also has high-rated headlights available, but the standard units got the second lowest rating of "Marginal." As for the vehicle-to-pedestrian collision prevention, the Volvo received the second-highest "Advanced" rating, while the Ford was rated "Superior." Among the electric cars IIHS has tested, the Ford and Volvo continue a streak of high scores. The organization has evaluated the Audi E-Tron in both its body styles, as well as the Tesla Model 3, both of which get the Top Safety Pick+ rating. As a result of the XC40 Recharge's test score, Volvo pointed out that it is the only automaker whose entire lineup has received a Top Safety Pick+ rating.

Ford cleans up painting process with cameras
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Knowing how the bacon gets made rarely entices us and, in the same vein, the same usually goes for knowing about how new cars get painted. But in both instances, however, quality - or a lack thereof - is instantly obvious. In terms of the latter, Ford is showing off its new paint quality process with 3D Dirt Detection Technology to find imperfections in vehicle paint more easily and more quickly.
This process - being performed on the F-150 SVT Raptor above - uses 16 computer-controlled cameras to create a three-dimensional model (inset) of the vehicle to detect flaws in the paint including dirt particles, which can then be buffed out manually. Ford says this new technology cuts down on time spent looking for paint flaws and gives workers more time to correct those that are discovered.
Currently, Ford only uses its 3D Dirt Detection Technology system at three factories (the Dearborn, MI facility, along with those in Louisville, Kentucky and Valencia, Spain), but it will soon spread to five more plants in North America. Ford has released a video and press release for this innovative and unexpectedly interesting process, both of which are posted below.
Ford to pay $17.35 million over Escape recall
Thu, 01 Aug 2013Ford had a bit of a recall spree around this time last year, with a pair of issues on the then-new 2013 Escape, followed by a recall of 423,000 2001 to 2004 Escapes because they might accelerate of their own accord. Accordingly, Uncle Sam pasted Ford with a $17.35 million fine because it took too long to inform customers, according to a report from Automotive News.
Ford agreed to settle with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, accepting the fine but not admitting fault. The recall, which afflicted Escapes with the 3.0-liter V-6 along with 217,000 Mazda Tributes from 2001 to 2006 and 2008, was due to faulty gas pedals that could stay down after a driver removed their foot.
Ford issued a statement regarding the fine, saying, "We take the safety of our customers seriously and continuously evaluate our processes for improvements. While we are confident in our current processes for quickly identifying and addressing potential vehicle issues, Ford agreed to this settlement to avoid a lengthy dispute with the government."
