For sale is my 1962 Ford Falcon, (AKA-"SKULLY"). Very cool little cruiser that I use often to attend local cruise-in and car shows. Have always wanted a 49-50 Chevy Fleetline and since I'm getting older, I have decided to sell this one, since I can only afford one classic toy. I will describe the condition of the car below as best as possible. If you have questions or need additional photos, please email me. Pick up or shipping of the vehicle is at the buyers expense. Car is being sold, "Where Is/As Is" Bidding may end early as car is also being advertised locally!
BODY; 4 Door sedan that is very solid. Needs work to both rear lower quarter panels. Doors, hood and trunk all close well and tight. No broken or missing glass. Floor pans have been patched. Will need weather stripping replaced around doors and trunk.
INTERIOR; Front seats replaced with late model buckets, has original rear bench seat. Seats have been recovered by my wife and I. Not a bad job for our first attempt! This is, with out a doubt, a "ONE OF A KIND", that gets lots of attention and compliments when we go out. Needs carpet and sun visors. Factory headliner is good for the most, (tear in rear window area). After market gauges installed in original radio opening, (not hooked up, but have the kit to do so). AM/FM/CD installed in glove box. Stereo speakers in front doors and rear shelf. System sounds nice!
DRIVE TRAIN; Stock inline 6 cylinder with less than 93,000 original miles, (has not flipped), but may be somewhat higher at end of sale, as I do drive it. Stock 2 speed auto trans and stock Ford rear axle.Trans has been rebuilt,(have receipts).
SUSPENSION; All original with the following changes; cut coil spring in front and lowering blocks added to the rear. New shocks all around, air shocks in rear'
NEW PARTS; Starter, radiator, fuel pump, exhaust manifold, shocks, tires, battery, gauges. peep mirrors, stereo.
Fun little car that could be made into a nice economical cruiser with paint and body work, or drive it as it is! Thanks for looking and hope this one flips your switch and makes you wanna bid, bid, bid!!!!!!!!!!!

Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty
Wed, 24 Sep 2014Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."
Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation
Sat, 09 Aug 2014
The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.
Ford posts record pre-tax Q3 profit of $2.6B
Thu, 24 Oct 2013Ford took in $2.6 billion in pre-tax profits in the third quarter of the year, making for a record trio of months that saw the Blue Oval's year-over-year earnings increase by $426 million. The earnings are being attributed not just to improvements in North American sales, but sales around the globe.
Revenue was up 12 percent, to $36 billion, although net income took a hit, dropping $359 million to $1.3 billion. Ford was dinged with $498 million in pre-tax charges, which are being blamed for the drop in net income.
The news has boosted Ford's hopes for full-year results, bumping it's total profits up past $8 billion, according to Automotive News. The Dearborn, MI-based manufacturer is still expecting a loss in Europe, although it's forecasted less than the $1.73 billion it burned in 2012. In fact, according to CFO Bob Shanks, Ford's European losses dropped by 51 percent year-over year, a huge improvement for the brand.
