1963 Ford Falcon Futura 4 Door Sedan

Car has a 170ci Inline six cylinder engine and a 2 speed automatic transmission, both believed to be original to the car. The engine has been completely rebuilt at a cost of $1734 with all new internal parts. I have all of the specifications on the rebuild and also all maintenance records and receipts. A mechanic at a local shop told me the carburetor will need to be adjusted or replaced. It is original and has been sitting on a shelf in my shop for many years during the restoration. Everything is original except the seat belts, I installed newer, (1974), Ford ones for safety and the generator has been replaced with an alternator. Car is rust free, paint is ok for a driver, body has no dents, and all the chrome trim is in very good shape. All glass is original and in very good shape for its age. Windows roll up/down as they should and doors open/close as they should, all work well for their age. Under carriage is rust free. Front end completely restored to as original and beautifully detailed. New carpet has been installed with sound proofing underneath. All 5 tires have 90% tread on them and engine has less than 100 miles sense rebuild. Too many new parts to list. I purchased this car in 2008 to restore but am now retiring. I have sold my shop and need to sell this little Falcon to a new home. Once the fuel delivery issue is sorted out I believe she would make a nice safe driver for someone’s teenager who likes older cars. Sale also includes the following parts: Chrome side mirror, 4 new chrome door handles, new door lock set, shop manuals, new engine decal kit, original generator, and original seat belts. Car is being sold as is with no warranty written or implied. Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements and cost, I will help with loading on this end if needed.

Ford C-Max Solar Energi takes a recharging station wherever it goes

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

Companies ranging in size from small startups to major automakers have been experimenting with solar-powered charging stations for EVs and plug-in hybrids. And, of course, people have been powering vehicles with onboard solar panels for quite some time, too. Still, Ford's new C-Max Solar Energi Concept shows the promise of a truly practical implementation of solar on a production vehicle, and it may not be as far off in the future as we had thought.
As we reported a few days ago, the Solar concept makes use of a "concentrator lens" that focuses sunlight onto the Ford's roof-mounted solar panels. The special lens follows the rays of the sun to maximize the amount of charge being fed to the batteries of the car, taking about a day to fully charge the 21-mile, all-electric range of the C-Max Energi. Ford data suggests that combination might be enough to power 75 percent of all trips made by a statistically average driver. In turn, using the sun to power a vehicle could reduce yearly C02 emissions by up to four metric tons when compared with the driver of an average gasoline-powered sedan.
We've got live images of the C-Max Solar Energi Concept, jauntily tilted on its display to best present it's signature solar panels, straight from the CES floor.

NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors

Wed, 22 Oct 2014

Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.

Ford Australia launches Falcon GT F 351, last of its line [w/video]

Sun, 15 Jun 2014

It's always best to go out with a bang rather than a whimper, and Ford Performance Vehicles is doing just that in Australia with the Falcon GT F 351. It's the most powerful road car the Aussie performance brand has ever made with a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 pumping out 471 horsepower (351 kilowatts) and 420 pound-feet of torque. It's joined by the FPV Pursuit Ute with the same powerplant tuned to 422 hp and 402 lb-ft. Sadly, the last F in this Falcon's name stands for Final.
The GT F 351 is a monumental way to go out, though. It harkens back to the old days of Aussie muscle Fords, and the 351kw output is meant to reference the classic Falcon GT and its 351-cubic-inch V8. In addition to the massive power, the F has the improved suspension from the R-Spec model and Brembo brake calipers.
FPV is building just 500 GT F sedans for Australia and 50 more for New Zealand, plus 120 Pursuit Utes. They feature a blacked-out hood and black stripes over the hood and sides, plus gloss black accents around the headlights, door handles and mirrors.
