Up for sale is my 1965 Ford Falcon Futura Convertible. It has been my project for the last year. It does run and drive good but needs some finishing. This is on older restoration done back in the 80's, and yes it does have filler in the usual places but looks good but is showing wear in the body and paint. The worst part of the paint is on the right rear quarter panel, a bottle of brake fluid spilled on it while it was in the barn and peeled the paint, otherwise there are scratches and chips from the junk in the barn. I did buff it out and it looks pretty good but it could eventually use some paint. The windshield is cracked and needs to be replaced. It is a driver not a trailer queen but can be a show car by next spring. I do have the original 289 engine and C4 trans that go with the car if you want it. The 289 was stuck at a valve guide from sitting in a barn for over 25 years. This is an original V8 car with 5 lug suspension, not a converted 6 cylinder car. Some of the work I have done in the last year is: install engine and trans, all new brakes and hydraulic parts, gas tank and sending unit, inner rocker structures, new Edelbrock carb, duraspark ignition upgrade, new carpet, fiberglass bumpers. It still needs interior work, the seats are not original to the car except the top of the back seat. The front split bench is from a Falcon wagon and the base of the rear is also from the same wagon. It isn't a perfect fit but will work until a base is located. Eventually it will need a repaint. It has headers and dual exhaust to the rear axle, needs tailpipes. The white top is perfect shape with no tears, even at the pivot points. The power top works well but the pivots need oiling. I have all the stainless side trim but I don't have all the white inserts between the trim. I was going to paint the white between the trim, that is why the trim is off. I have the original radio not installed yet. I am still working on the car when I get a chance. I suggest coming to see the car in person before committing to purchase. I consider this a drivable project. I am selling to pay a few bills and have another car that I would like to start on. Any questions please call me at (262)893-1763

Ford pits The Stig against Gran Turismo 6 in Focus ST Goodwood run

Thu, 03 Jul 2014

The Goodwood Festival of Speed is one of the world great automotive gatherings. So, it was the perfect event for Ford to give the refreshed 2015 Focus ST its world debut in front of a loving public. It even surprised us with a new diesel-powered version, as well.
The Blue Oval really put its focus on making the ST a better driver for this refresh. It left its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder alone to still pump out a respectable 252 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. The changes like a retuned front suspension, electric power steering and improved interior made the hot hatch an even better place to spend time behind the wheel.
To prove that the Focus ST is still as potent as ever, Ford set up a one-on-one race up the Goodwood Hill. But instead of putting the two cars side-by-side, former Stig from Top Gear UK, Ben Collins, piloted the real model up the course, and his rival drove the virtual version in Gran Turismo 6. The two hot hatches set off at the same time to see whether reality could beat the virtual world, and the finish was actually extremely close. Scroll down to watch the video and find out the winner of this battle at Goodwood.

Ford F-150, Toyota Tacoma top ASG list of most eco-friendly trucks

Mon, Mar 31 2014

No one's going to confuse the massively popular Ford F-150 pickup truck with a green vehicle, but at least it performs well in an environmental sense when compared to its brethren. The Automotive Science Group (ASG) took on the odd (to us, at least) task of measuring which pickup trucks are friendliest to the environment and found that the big seller in the Blue Oval's flagship F-series came up big, while the Toyota Tacoma came up, well, slightly smaller. That's a good thing. Among the 245 light-duty trucks that ASG studied, the 3.7-liter V6-powered F-150 won ASG's award for full-size trucks for both regular and crew cabs. Meanwhile, the 2.7-liter Toyota Tacoma, with its fuel-economy rating of 23 miles per gallon combined, had smallest overall life-cycle carbon footprint and won ASG's two mid-sized categories. Finally, the Chevrolet Silverado won best all-around performance in the full-size extended-cab category. The ASG factored in eco-friendliness, price and social performance (which is measured by, "considering the rights of those charged with vehicle manufacture and assembly") to come up with its findings. Sales of Ford's F-Series trucks rose 8.4 percent last year to 74,592 units and accounted for more than a third of the total 2013 sales of Ford and its Lincoln unit. Check out the ASG's press release below. Truck Buyers Faced With "Eco" Options Galore Which 2014 full-size trucks warrant eco claims? 25 March 2014 [Santa Rosa, CA] – With a myriad of eco-branded trucks hitting the North American marketplace in 2014 Â– from Ford's EcoBoost and GM's EcoTec3 to Ram's latest addition, the EcoDiesel Â– the Automotive Science Group (ASG) was prompted to offer an objective, scientifically-based assessment to determine exactly which 2014 trucks actually earn their "eco" badge. According to ASG and the principles of ecological economics, a vehicle's eco-rating must be multi-faceted to include both environmental and economic considerations, and so the Group's proprietary rating platform Â– the Automotive Performance Index Â– does just that. Using a unique combination of vehicle data inputs that include conventional specifications as well as social, environmental and economic performance indicators, ASG's vehicle assessments empower consumers to make choices based on one's personal principles and financial requisites.

Do you guys like trucks?

Wed, Jan 17 2018

Do you guys like trucks? If the answer is yes, boy do we have the show for you! The 2018 North American International Auto Show is lousy with 'em. Yeah, we saw the new Ram 1500, Chevy Silverado and Ford Ranger, but that's just scratching the surface. There are big trucks, little trucks, clean trucks, dirty trucks, old trucks, new trucks, red trucks, blue trucks. It's like a Dr. Seuss book. Anyway, we made a little video for you truck nuts (see what I did there?). Check it out above, and if you're looking for more serious coverage of the Detroit Auto Show, we've got it, along with a ton of images and other videos from the show floor. Enjoy!
