This is an incredible nice original 80K mile Falcon Squire Wagon that I have been blessed to own the past 3-5 years. The car was restored to a really nice nice driver condition. Everything is nicely detailed including the new rebuilt 200 motor.
The motor... a ford 200 with a GM distrubutor ($500), chrome valve cover, large 9mm race wires, 2 bbl webber carb ($500) and clifford exhaust header ($400) that is chrome. The car runs really good on the highway and cruises the local streets with ease. Breathes really nice with the header and has plenty of get up and go with the 200 and the 2 bbl webber carb...The whole motor compartment was stripped and painted, and then the new power plant installed. Also updated it to an Alternator. Everything is show-n-go for the engine bay.
The interior... is all finished in two tone beige and wood accents. the back deck is a medium stained real wood deck and matched the interior perfect giving it a great beachy "woody" look. The front seats are high back 2012 Mustang Leather seats that are really comfortable...can be hooked up to be electric (currently not hooked up but easily done)...Has new custom carpet, new headliner, new door panels, new dash pad, new steering wheel. The interior was compleatly stripped and restored. New heater core installed too.
Exterior... Stripped and painted base/clear dark metallic green with an off white top. Then hand rubbed and buffed out to a high luster. It's a really nice paint job that has a couple small flaws in it from driving it to shows the past year or so, I mean small small flaws, but thought I would disclose them. All of the original Squire accents are present including the gas cap which is really hard to find. All squire badging is there and in really good shape.
The rear window is electric., it goes up and down with a switch in the dash...or by key. All of the glass in in great condition...and the front windsheild is new.
All weatherstripping is new., all window rubber, door jam weatherstripping etc....all the windows were removed when painting to get the best detail possible...then the car was put back together. The detail is really nice on this car.
I have had nothing but joy with this Squire Wagon and the new owner will do nothing but have joy when they own it.
Details...
- I have some extras that come with the car...a couple surf boards, a hula hule girl for the dash
- AM/FM/CD stereo is mounted in the glove box with a bass mounted in the spare tire area giving a nice rich sound.
- Custom console
All in all this car needs nothing but a garage to live in. The 2 speed transmission does the job., but if I was to keep the car, I would install an early c-4 as they are more up to date.
If you have any questions on this Squire Wagon, don't hesitate to call., or if you would like more photos of the motor area (completely detailed) and or interior don't hesitate to ask. I will entertain offers too.
Car is also for sale locally here in Sacramento., although if there are bids and they are close to my asking price I will let the listing ride. But I do reserve the right to pull the listing if is sells locally. If I get around to listing it local.
Thanks., Guy 916-549-1088

Ford bringing 10 custom Transit Connects to SEMA
Tue, 29 Oct 2013With 57 vehicles planned for its SEMA display, it comes as little surprise that Ford has plenty of teasers for its show cars. After showing us what it has in store for the Mustang, Fiesta and Focus ST, now we're getting a look at some of the custom creations based on the redesigned 2014 Transit Connect van.
These nine Transit Connects are decked out to various degrees of customization, but our favorite might be the chopped and lowered Transit Connect from Mob Steel (shown above), which has a similar slammed stance that we see on some custom VW Buses. On the opposite extreme, LGE & CTS Motorsports has jacked up a Transit Connect to make a Cross Country cruiser that we wouldn't mind taking on a road trip.
There are seven other teasers from various companies, and you can check them all out in the gallery above or in the press release below. Ford is also promising a tenth Transit Connect for SEMA, so stay tuned for that as well.
Saleen previews new 302 Mustang
Thu, 03 Jul 2014The introduction of a new generation of a model like the Ford Mustang may be exciting enough in its own right for enthusiasts, but that's just the tip of the proverbial iceberg, because you know that Ford itself as well as numerous aftermarket tuners will soon follow up with even more desirable versions. And few Mustang tuners carry quite the same clout of Saleen.
Recently reunited after its previous split, Saleen is back on the map and hard at work on new aftermarket modifications for a wide array of muscle cars. We knew it would only be a matter of time before it would release a new 302 Mustang, and now it's sent out the first image to show us what to expect.
Details are scarce, but House that Steve Built says the 2015 Saleen 302 Mustang "is perfectly positioned as the next American exotic." And it should know, considering that it's the same outfit that produced the Saleen S7 that really was a true American exotic. From the teaser image above we can see that Saleen has given its Mustang a new front air dam, a very wide air scoop on the hood and of course Saleen's trademark slat grille.
Here's what the UAW will be angling for in next year's contract negotiations
Mon, Dec 15 2014The United Auto Workers union is about to enter a new round of negotiations with the Detroit Three automakers, and this time, the focus is on the end of the two-tier wage system. Introduced in 2007, the two-tier wage system was enacted to allow General Motors, Ford and Chrysler to categorize its hourly employees under two categories: Tier 1 for veteran employees with full rights and benefits, and Tier 2 for short-term or entry-level employees compensated under a different schedule. The idea was that the system would permit the automakers to invest more in their plants and hire new employees as part of their respective recovery plans without being saddled with all the costs associated with hiring full-time employees. Now that the automakers are (more or less) back on their proverbial feet, however, the UAW wants to see an end to the two-tier system, and will likely make that a center-point of its negotiations next year to replace the current arrangement that is scheduled to end in September 2015. Not all members of the UAW will necessarily be interested in ending the two-tier system, however. According to The Detroit News, some Tier 1 workers may be more interested in negotiating a raise in their hourly rate – something which they haven't received in almost a decade. Tier 2 workers, meanwhile, may be more motivated to keep the tiered system in place, as their arrangement includes provisions for profit-sharing payments that have seen the automakers pay out billions to so-called short-term employees in lump-sum payments. Reconciling the two competing demands from two categories of union members and presenting a united front in negotiations may prove the biggest challenge for the UAW's new president, Dennis Williams. And with the right to strike – something which was suspended during the last round of negotiations in 2011 – the union has a bigger bargaining chip in its pocket.
