1963 ford falcon roadster rat rod project

Let me start out by saying this is not my car. I am listing it for a friend of mine that doesn’t have a computer so any and all questions should be directed to him (roger: phone #231-865-7448)

DESCRIPTION: 1963 ford falcon roadster( no top)RAT ROD PROJECT CAR with a 351w out of a 1976 cougar (mileage unknown) and it is backed by a c-4 fmx 3-speed automatic It has a 5 lug ford 8” rear end w/3:00 open gears and a mustang II 5 lug front end with manual front disk brakes. Now this car was born a convertible back 50 years ago and the guy that Roger bought it from had used it for a parts car for the completion of his other convertible so when Roger got it most of the parts were gone but being the visionary guy that he is he built the car that you now see.

Now when Roger bought this car it was the body only. He installed a rear end out of a maverick with the 4-link and the mustang II front end so he could get it sitting on all fours again. He reinforced the original frame with 1 1/2 x 2 1/2 tubing to take the added torque of the 351(motor runs good with no noises or smoke) and put new sheet metal on the floors to make it solid again. He then went all the way thru the brake system and replaced everything to do with the brakes so it is all new from the master cylinder and the front rotors to all the lines to the rear drums everything is new. Then he installed the rear seat out of a dodge caravan and the front buckets came from a fox body mustang. The wheels are key stone classics and the tires are fair. He put in a new front windshield, mirrors,carpet, and made the console and door panels and side panels

He also put in a plastic fuel cell and re-wired the car so all the lights are in working order (but the new gauges still need to be installed and wired)

Included in the sale but not installed is the door glass (the driver’s side is cracked), both side rear windows are in the car and work great. It also includes (if you want to put it back to a convertible) some top bows and the header panel but it needs repaired on the ends do too rust and the windshield wiper motor. He also has 2 quarts of the white paint to go with it and some other parts (pictured but not the steering wheel pictured) that go too. Like I said this is a RAT ROD PROJECT CAR with no warranties or guaranties it has only been lot driven. But if your interested give Roger a call at 231-865-7448 and he can answer any questions about this build.

THIS CAR HAS ONLY BEEN LOT DRIVEN IT HAS NEVER BEEN ON THE ROAD SINCE COMPLETION!!! SO USE YOUR BEST JUDGMENT AND BID ACCORDINGLY.

Ford Mustang EcoBoost has fake engine soundtrack

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

The 2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost represents a huge change for the Blue Oval as the first pony car in decades to be available with a four-cylinder engine. But a recent tweet (below) from Road & Track raised our curiosity about the new vehicle. Editor Jason Cammisa pulled a fuse while driving the latest 'Stang with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine, and he found that both the stereo and engine went quiet in the cabin. That indicated the coupe might have some form of artificial engine sound being piped in - a feature not previously heavily reported for the model. Autoblog spoke with Ford engineer Shawn Carney who confirmed that only the turbocharged four-cylinder Mustang comes with this system, called Active Noise Control.

Ford Claims Focus As World's Best-Selling Car For Second Year In A Row

Mon, Jan 27 2014

Ford Motor Co. has claimed its Focus sedan beat out the Toyota Corolla for the title of 'best-selling car in the world' for the second year in a row. The declaration was based on independent sales figures from January to September of 2013, according to USA Today. Last year, Ford used data from the analysis firm Polk to support its claim of having the best-selling car of 2012. Toyota objected, stating the Corolla sold more units. The numbers eventually showed that the Ford Focus was the best selling nameplate of the year, but may have been second to the Toyota sedan overall since multiple variations of the Corolla are sold under different nameplates around the world. Data from the analysis firm R.L. Polk found Focus registrations from January through September 2013 reached 856,587. Ford can thank booming car sales in China, where the automaker sold 303,481 units, for a sizable chunk of that number, which was a 16 percent increase over 2012. "Our success with Focus is the result of Ford's connection to our customers all over the world," said Jim Farley, an executive vice president at Ford. The Focus and Corolla both compete in the popular small sedan segment, along with other hot-selling cars like the Honda Civic, Hyundai Elantra and Chevrolet Cruze. These vehicles make a up a large portion of sales for their respective automakers, as they tend to hit a sweet spot for many consumers, coming with a starting sticker price under $20,000, solid fuel economy, plenty of cargo and passenger room and, lately, sharp exterior design and sportier driving dynamics.
