*NO RESERVE AUCTION!*

1965 falcon convertible. pretty rare car. Most falcons out there for sale are 64's.hard to find very solid old ford. It is currently a running, driving, registered car. It has just had a valve job, electronic ignition conversion, new fuel pump, new carburator, and battery. Just had a brand new set of whitewall tires put on it. We also just replaced the rear leaf springs and hangers with new bushings. Drives and runs pretty well but I would assume the rest of the suspension may very well be original. I wouldn't see a problem driving it home however it is still an old car so anything can happen. Has a power top that works very well. all lights, turn signals, etc work. The original radio even works still!! the worst parts of the car are the chrome is flaking off the rear bumper and the trunk lock is missing in action..lol The top works great and is all there but likely the original or a replacement a long time ago. it works but is in need of replacement if car was to be restored. From what I have found the pictures below show the only rust which is on the bottom of the inner rocker. probably a 2x6 inch area or so on both sides where it is thin. the trunk, floors, quarters and everything else look to be solid. Body is absolutely solid, doors do not sag when they are opened like most convertibles out there for sale. The car was originally the dark IVY green. Looks like it was repainted red a LONG time ago. it does have a cool patina to it and gets alot of attention when we cruise it around. All of the glass and top window is there and in place. The windshield has a rock chip in it but other than that the glass is in nice condition.

I have represented the car to the best of my knowledge and will meet any bidder for a preview no problem. On cars this old a lot of condition items are subject to each persons opinion. What I may think is horrible you may not. I try to make sure the car is well represented so the buyer will be pleasantly surprised when it arrives. The car is for sale locally and is subject to sale prior to end of auction. We offer transportation assistance for overseas buyers. Flat rate of $200.00 in addition to close price, to transport it the port of oakland ca. We also work directly with a excellent transport company(no brokers) for delivery in the states.

A deposit of 500.00 is due immediatly at end of auction for winning bidder! If you do not agree to this do not bid please. Please do not hesitate to call or message me with any questions. 916-740-9438

Thanks, and HAPPY BIDDING!!!

Mark LaNeve named head of Ford US sales and marketing

Thu, Jan 8 2015

Ford continues to rework the positions of its top marketing executives as Jim Farley moves to take over the Blue Oval in Europe and Stephen Odell becomes head of global sales. The latest shift brings Mark LaNeve in as the new vice president of US marketing, sales, service and dealer relations, effective February 1. LaNeve replaces John Felice, who is retiring. Felice was with the automaker for the last 30 years and held his most recent job since November of 2013. In addition to coordinating marketing and sales, LaNeve's other duty is to build "innovative new digital communications and transforming the retail experience for customers," according to the automaker's press release announcing the change. He reports to both Odell and Joe Hinrichs, Ford's boss of the Americas. LaNeve has a long history in the auto industry. He spent a portion of his early career with Cadillac but eventually was hired as the CEO of Volvo Cars North America. He also headed up US marketing at General Motors for several years in the 2000s. Since 2012, LaNeve has been the chief operating officer at Global Ford Team, which is responsible for the company's worldwide advertising. There's an interesting challenge ahead of LaNeve in leading the Blue Oval's US marketing and sales in 2015. Ford was the bestselling auto brand here in 2014 but overall sales fell about 1.1 percent. According to Automotive News, the company's market share dropped to 14.9 percent, a one-percent reduction and the lowest level since 2008. Read below for the automaker's official announcement of LaNeve's new job. JOHN FELICE RETIRING AFTER 30 YEARS; FORD NAMES MARK LANEVE TO LEAD U.S. MARKETING, SALES AND SERVICE TEAM John Felice is retiring as vice president, U.S. Marketing, Sales and Service, after 30 years of service Mark LaNeve, named vice president, U.S. Marketing, Sales and Service and elected a Ford Motor Company officer; former chief operating officer at Global Team Ford brings nearly three decades of automotive marketing and sales experience to Ford Ford Motor Company [NYSE: F] announced today changes in its senior leadership team as it continues to deliver and accelerate the company's One Ford plan while driving for product excellence and innovation. John Felice, vice president, U.S. Marketing, Sales and Service, has elected to retire after 30 years at Ford, effective Feb. 1, 2015.

eBay Find of the Day: Mk1 Ford GT40 with interesting history

Sat, 03 May 2014

You might expect a rare Ford GT40 to cross the block at some sort of prestigious auto auction from RM or Gooding, not show up on eBay for over $2 million. However, that's exactly what we have here. The seller claims the car is a late-build Mk1 GT40 from 1969, and it's currently owned by the director of the Hublot watch company in Switzerland.
According to the listing, GT40 #P1108 started life as Mk1 car that was built from factory spares in 1969 and was first sold in 1971. However, the auction is somewhat confusing. According to an image in its gallery, the vehicle was actually built from one of the seven spare Mk3 tubs when production of the iconic racers ended.
This GT40 was never built as a racecar - it lived on the streets its whole life. After assembly finished, it was sent to Germany and was eventually registered for the road. The first owner kept the car until 2005 and sold it with 7,300 miles on the odometer. The current owner bought it in 2012.

Ford will probably never offer two RS models at the same time

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Autocar has some sour news for fans of go-fast Ford products. According to Roelant de Waard, Ford's president of marketing in Europe, the automaker will probably never offer more than one RS performance model for sale at the same time. That statement runs contrary earlier rumblings that suggested Ford would launch its next-generation Focus RS in 2015 and follow the hatch with a spate of other vehicles with an RS badge. But de Waard has made it clear that Ford of Europe is now focused on squarely on the next Mustang, even though there may be more RS models on the way eventually.
"What is clear is that the RS shouldn't be a series, or a car badge that we have in our portfolio all the time. It is an extreme car - something more than ST," he said.
That philosophy makes plenty of sense. We loved the old Focus RS - shown above in RS500 trim - because it was generally bonkers and plenty exclusive. Diluting either aspect is sure to end in disappointment for everyone involved.
