Ford Falcon Futura Hardtop (project Car) on 2040-cars
Greenwood, Indiana, United States
This project was started over 2 years ago. The body is 90% complete. Extensive work has been professionally done including the following. New passenger quarter panel, 3 new frame rails (floor supports), new floor boards, . Other work also performed includes widened rear wheel tubs. The installation of a rust free cowl panel and deck lid. The fenders, doors, hood and rockers needed very little if any repairs. Hood has not been stripped. This vehicle also features a new 15 gal. fuel cell with sending unit. New 2" drop leaf springs. New custom built, welded in frame connectors. Stock 302 V8 and C-4 trans also included. It has an 8.8" rear axle. I have all the exterior stainless trim. I have all glass (windshield scratched). I also have the correct back seat. Bucket seats are included but they are not original. I installed the doors and fenders for the photos only, they need to be properly installed after edges are painted. . This vehicle still needs some very light body work and block sanding before paint. I will also consider partial or even trades for a professionally built, complete, high performance Ford 331 / 347 / 351 engine as long as paperwork is provided to prove it. I would also consider a posi unit for a Ford 9". Disc brake conversion kit and or front suspension for my 67 Mustang Fastback. This Falcon will make a great Street Rod, Custom or even a light weight race car for the right person!! |

2015 Ford Mustang revs it up at Cars & Coffee
Mon, 09 Dec 2013Just because the new 2015 Ford Mustang has officially been released, you didn't think that would be the end of the matter - did you? Of course not. There'll still be plenty of rumors, reports and video footage to bring you. Like this, the first non-official footage of the new pony car in the wild.
Shot by YouTube user SotA1080 and dug up by our friends at CarBuzz, this clip shows the new Mustang posing for photos (alongside other Mustangs) and starting up its engine at the most recent gathering of Cars & Coffee in Irvine, CA. And this being the GT model, it's not packing the V6 or the turbo four, but the red-blooded 5.0-liter V8 that tells us and enthusiasts worldwide that the new Mustang has not lost its way. Scroll on down to watch the footage for yourself.
Cadillac ELR, Nissan Resonance and Ford Atlas win Eyes on Design awards
Fri, 18 Jan 2013This year's annual Eyes on Design awards were presented at the end of press days for the Detroit Auto Show on Tuesday. Given out for the best production and concept car designs that debuted at the show, and voted on by an esteemed panel of actual car designers, this year's award for best production vehicle design went to the 2014 Cadillac ELR. The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, which was the show favorite among Autoblog editors, apparently did not impress the Eyes on Design judges enough with its all-new vent-festooned design.
The award for best concept design was actually split as a tie among the Nissan Resonance and Ford Atlas concepts. Last year's winners were the 2013 Ford Fusion and the Lexus LF-LC concept.
The Eyes on Design organization also presented a new honor this year called the Catalyst Award to Bob Lutz, former Vice Chairman of General Motors. Lutz is reported to have given a defense of design in his acceptance speech, arguing that advancements in quality across the industry as a whole have made good design a key differentiator for buyers.
Ford evaluating new Fiesta RS?
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Word coming in from across the pond has it that Ford is working on developing the business case to create a new Fiesta RS. The development is encouraged by the extremely positive reception the existing Fiesta ST has garnered to date, and the emergence of the above-pictured Fiesta RS WRC rally car, but it'll take more than goodwill to make a more extreme version a reality.
According to Auto Express, a new roadgoing Fiesta RS would almost certainly be based closely on the ST version, albeit with some vital differences. Its 1.6-liter turbo four would be increased from 180 horsepower to somewhere around 230 hp, and that powertrain would be accompanied by lightweight alloys inside blistered wheel arches, a stripped-out interior and possibly lightweight bodywork.
The vehicle's approval would reportedly require a strong business case in Europe, and not just in the UK where Ford hot hatches traditionally enjoy a strong following. It's unclear whether the Fiesta RS would potentially make the transatlantic voyage to American showrooms, but between it and the larger Focus RS, hopefully the Blue Oval wouldn't leave its home market out of the action altogether.
