Wow Here we have a 1964 Ford Falcon Sprint V8, Automatic. This car is described as driver quality with rust free panels, this is not a trailer queen its a great driver. Has decent paint which would benefit from a good buffing and colour sanding, to bring it to the next level. The best thing about this car is it powertrain, with a 302 stroked to 331 cubes, Wysco pistons at 10.5 to one, cammed with a 536 lift and 280 duration camshaft, elderbrock aluminum intake, 650 Double pumper. Headers with 2.75 Exhaust with 40 series flowmasters with dumps. Makes 420 h.p. which has been mated to a fully built C4 trans with shift kit and 3000 stall TCI torque converter. Putting its power to the ground through a 9" posi with 3.73 Gears. Makes for one stout little street car, 5ltr eater watch those Mustangs fade in you mirrors. The interior is in great shape showing little signs of wear anywere real decent with a Sony CD Player for when you don't want to listen to the roar of the engine. Has real nice wheels and tires, the chrome and bright work are in great to outstanding condition. Oh the under carriage is in great rust free condition as shown in photos. Glass is all in great shape with original cresting. Check the photos out as they speak for themselves. This car is for sale locally and may be withdrawn at any time. I encourage you to stop by and inspect this car yourself or your inspector because seeing is believing its true condition as everybody has different expectations. I will help with shipment over seas, I can take to a seaport for your convenience for a small fee. I will Ship the car to Buffalo N.Y. or Detroit MI. Area For transport through out the USA. For a small fee. Theres a small broker fee of $375.00 to have the paperwork done correctly so this car can be registed in any state with ease. I am easy to work with and I am willing to help any way I can to make this an easy transaction. If I haven't said this before this car drives just like it would have when it was brand new in 1964 but faster. If you really wish I would drive this car to your front door for the price of fuel, expenses, and plane ticket home for me and my friend. That's how confident I am in this car. Truly is a decent example. Want more pictures just ask. Will consider trades????????

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
Lexus tops JD Power Vehicle Dependability Study again, Buick bests Toyota
Wed, Feb 25 2015It shouldn't surprise anyone, but Lexus has once again taken the top spot in JD Power's Vehicle Dependability Study. That'd be the Japanese luxury brand's fourth straight year at the top of table. The big news, though, is the rise of Buick. General Motor's near-premium brand beat out Toyota to take second place, with 110 problems per 100 vehicles compared to Toyota's 111 problems. Lexus owners only reported 89 problems per 100 vehicles. Besides Buick's three-position jump, Scion enjoyed a major improvement, jumping 13 positions from 2014. Ram and Mitsubishi made big gains, as well, moving up 11 and 10 positions, respectively. In terms of individual segments, GM and Toyota both excelled, taking home seven segment awards each. The study wasn't good news for all involved, though. A number of popular automakers finished below the industry average of 147 problems per 100 vehicles, including Subaru, (157PP100), Volkswagen (165PP100), Ford/Hyundai (188PP100 each) and Mini (193PP100). The biggest losers (by a tremendous margin, we might add) were Land Rover and Fiat, recording 258 and 273 problems per 100 vehicles. The next closest brand was Jeep, with 197PP100. While the Vehicle Dependability Study uses the same measurement system as the Initial Quality Survey, the two metrics analyze very different things. The VDS looks at problems experienced by original owners of model year 2012 vehicles over the past 12 months, while the oft-quoted IQS focuses on problems in the first 90 days of new-vehicle ownership. Like the IQS, though, the VDS has a rather broad definition of what a problem is. Because of that, a low score from JD Power is no guarantee of extreme unreliability, so much as just poor design. In this most recent study, the two most reported problems focused on Bluetooth connectivity and the voice-command systems. The former leaves plenty of room for user error due to poor design (particularly true of the Bluetooth systems on the low-scoring Fords, Volkswagens and Subarus), while the second is something JD Power has already confirmed as being universally terrible. That makes means that while these studies are important, they shouldn't be taken as gospel when it comes to automotive reliability.

Chris Harris pits Fiesta ST against Mercedes G63 AMG in 0-60 battle... sort of
Thu, 01 Aug 2013Vehicle performance tests are serious business, with reputations made or broken by things like braking distance, top speed, and lateral g-forces. King of the metrics, though, is the 0-60 run, which for unknown reasons has become the benchmark for what truly makes a car a performance machine.
Now, Chris Harris from Drive has turned the whole idea behind the sprint to 60 on its ear. Taking a new Ford Fiesta ST, Harris asks a simple question: would the ST be quicker to 60 on its own, or on a trailer being towed by a Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG?
It's a fair question, really. The Fiesta Harris tested hit 60 in 7.2 seconds on a slightly uphill section of runway. It should be noted that Harris quotes his ST at 182 horsepower, which is about 15 ponies less than what we're getting in the US, so these numbers might not hold up all that well against an American model. The G63 AMG, meanwhile, is a 536-horsepower monster, powered by a twin-turbo V8 that, able to propel the big SUV to 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds without towing a Fiesta.
