This falcon has been built from the ground up as my own
pro-touring car with the help of a racecar/hotrod shop. It has all of the best
parts in it that I accumulated for almost two years before beginning the build.
It runs on pump gas, and sounds amazing with the incredibly straight body
showing through the clear coat paint. This is an original V8 California black
plate car, and I have written records from the previous owner back from 1963.
This car is hiding nothing. -- ALL OF THESE PARTS ARE PRACTICALLY NEW WITH ABOUT 3000
MILES ON THEM-- * Stroked 351w to a 418 with forged crank, forged H-beam
rods, and forged pistons, aluminum Dart heads, Edelbrock airgap intake * Tremec TKO 500 5-speed transmission with a Quick Time
scatter shield. * Fatman fabrication front suspension * Control Freaks adjustable coilover rear suspension * Ford 8.8" rear w/ limited slip, upgraded axles, and
3.73 gears professionally built * Four wheel disc brakes with 13" rotors up front and a
willwood dual reservoir master cylinder * Aluminum radiator with 3000 cfm electric fan, moroso
electric water pump, KRC power steering pump, powermaster alternator * Car plumbed with aluminum 15 gallon fuel tank with all
lines for EFI already installed and running through the car * Interior has leather bucket seats with Corbeau 5-point
harnesses, machine turned aluminum panels, and a Twisted Machine adjustable
aluminum shifter with a Hurst knob * All gauges are Auto Meter American Muscle series. * Wheels are custom made Vintage wheel works 17x8 in the
front and 17x 10 in the rear with BF Goodrich 235s and 255s . * Custom built aluminum headers with Flowmaster 40 series
mufflers. * It has an aluminum radiator, but could use a larger one. It will begin to run hot if the temperature is too warm outside. Everything on this car was built right with my standards and
no shortcuts. I had the car weighed at 2960 pounds with fuel. |

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.

2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Your Mileage May Vary
As difficult as it is to write this, I was actually excited about the 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid. With the beautiful looks of the newest midsize fighter from Ford and a fuel economy estimate capable of shaming even the stalwart Camry Hybrid, the battery-augmented four-door seemed like a recipe for unabashed success. But appearances love nothing more than swapping our boundless enthusiasm for cold platters of disappointment. The 2013 Fusion Hybrid gets hobbled right out of the gate with a lofty price tag, and real-world driving keeps the sedan from even approaching those EPA figures.
With so many excellent midsize hybrids on the market, is there any reason to consider the newest Fusion Hybrid? Are sharp aesthetics, a well-executed interior and capable driving dynamics enough to overcome the machine's shortfalls? Not from where I'm standing.
'84 MotorWeek Cherokee, Bronco and Blazer comparison indulges your SUV nostalgia
Fri, Jan 16 2015These days, truck-based, full-frame SUVs are somewhat of a rarity on the auto landscape due to the rapid rise in popularity of easier-driving, car-based crossovers. Although, without the gradually building popularity of these chunky, high-riding vehicles decades ago, it's unlikely that America's roads would be filled with so many CUVs today. In its latest dig into the archives, MotorWeek has found a 1984 comparison test of a trio of these early Sport Utility Wagons, as long-time host John Davis called them, that helped get acceptance of this segment going. This is a red, white and blue test of the SUVs from American automakers at the time and pits the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee (specifically in Wagoneer guise) against each other. Driving manners and interior usability are considered in the evaluation, but Motorweek actually takes these vehicles off road, too. Among the bigger revelations is the improvement in on-road ability in the past 30 years. While specific 0-60 times aren't given, all three models take around 10 seconds just to get to around 50 miles per hour in the 500-feet on-ramp acceleration test. Check out this clip to see just how far this segment has progressed in the past three decades or just get a blast of nostalgia from these now vintage models.
