I have for sale my 1968 Ford Falcon 4 door sedan PROJECT CAR. Please read the following description:

 

Mechanics: this Falcon is powered by an in-line six cylinder. Not sure if it’s a 200 or 250 cu in. Has a 3 speed manual transmission that has had the shifter moved from the column to the floor. The engine seems to run very smooth. Starts, idles and sounds good. Clutch works fine without slipping, but does occasionally have a throw-out bearing noise. Brakes work OK but should be gone thru. Parking brake works well. Has a new alternator. Has a universal ignition switch with “start button”. The shifter is finicky , takes some getting used to, but all forward and reverse gears work fine with no irregular noises.  Has glasspack exhaust. No power steering or brakes

 

 Body: Very solid and dry body. Has a few minor dents, but never wrecked. No rust (other than surface where paint is this) or rot. There is a small rust hole in floorboard on passenger side, and some surface rust (no hole) on driver side floorboard. (see pic) Previous owner removed trunk lock and installed remote cable in interior.

 

Suspension: Previous owner lowered front end(cutting springs). Car drives pretty good but have not driven any distance

Wheels and tires: Has original 4 lug 14” wheels with OK tires

 

Interior: is ROUGH. Rear seat original and present but needs redone. Front seats out of different car. In trunk are headliner bows, some door panels(to use as templates) and some interior trim pieces. There is no dash pad.

 

Glass: all glass is present. Windshield is not cracked, but has wiper scratches.

 

Electrical. All lights work.

Conclusion: This is a project car. It is solid and a good starting point for a fairly rare car. Being rare does not necessarily make it valuable, but you sure don’t see these very often. I have the clean clear title and the car is currently registered in Calif.

Autoblog joins Elon Musk and Danica Patrick in accepting ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

Tue, 19 Aug 2014

Unless you've been living in an off-the-grid cabin in the woods for the last couple of weeks or abstain entirely from social media activities, you've probably seen someone you know dump a bucket of ice and water over their own head recently. While the origins of the so-called Ice Bucket Challenge are shrouded in a history typical of Internet memes, its effectiveness in raising money and awareness for the ALS Association has been astonishing.
Celebrities from the worlds of entertainment, sports, technology and more have generated untold millions of video views in support of the organization that is helping patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS, better known as Lou Gehrig's Disease), and generated a much needed influx of cash, as well. Recent reports have some $15.6M raised in the last two weeks.
Of course, the big-hearted world of automotive celebrities has taken part in the drenching charity effort as well. Follow on below for some of the biggest names on four wheels getting iced for charity, with a smattering of your favorite Autobloggers thrown in for good measure.

180,000 new vehicles are sitting, derailed by lack of transport trains

Wed, 21 May 2014

If you're planning on buying a new car in the next month or so, you might want to pick from what's on the lot, because there could be a long wait for new vehicles from the factory. Locomotives continue to be in short supply in North America, and that's causing major delays for automakers trying to move assembled cars.
According to The Detroit News, there are about 180,000 new vehicles waiting to be transported by rail in North America at the moment. In a normal year, it would be about 69,000. The complications have been industry-wide. Toyota, General Motors, Honda and Ford all reported experiencing some delays, and Chrysler recently had hundreds of minivans sitting on the Detroit waterfront waiting to be shipped out.
The problem is twofold for automakers. First, the fracking boom in the Bakken oil field in the Plains and Canada is monopolizing many locomotives. Second, the long, harsh winter is still causing major delays in freight train travel. The bad weather forced trains to slow down and carry less weight, which caused a backup of goods to transport. The auto companies resorted to moving some vehicles by truck, which was a less efficient but necessary option.

Would a Mustang-based Lincoln look like this?

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Designer Josiah LaCalla has taken a stab at what a Ford Mustang-based Lincoln model might look like with the Continental Mark X1 concept. Make no mistake, Ford's luxury arm has made it abundantly clear that it won't be pursuing any new products outside of volume models, which means a flashy halo grand tourer like the one you see here isn't in the cards. LaColla used the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG as a basis for his creation, which explains the long nose, but we certainly don't mind the idea of a rear-wheel drive Lincoln with a cabin pushed to the aft.
While we're dreaming, there's certainly nothing stopping us from imagining what's under that lengthy hood. We like the idea of the 5.8-liter supercharged V8 from the Shelby GT500 pushing the Mark X1 down the road, but how about something a little more inventive? Something like a high-revving, buttery V12 with enough torque to push the contraption well past 200 miles per hour. Dream a little dream, people.
