For sale is a ford falcon futura sport coupe 200ci L6 manual. Work done, daily driver, YouTube video below.

This is a rare car, less than 6,000 of the updated '69s were assembled (then sold in 1970). This is a daily driver and lives in garage. No rust, engine was rebuilt a bit over a year ago, seals, bearings, rings, points, plugs, etc all new, carb tuned and rebuilt, (rebuilt at 100k, currently at ~32k) by a couple shop guys, that makes me the 3rd owner. Has a modern radiator too, never overheats. Paint is in great condition considering its age, though there are a few chips that have a bit of surface rust, but very small, few small dents, original gaslite glass all around. Has new American Racing wheels, was originally an automatic but when rebuilt a new manual transmission was installed (4 on the floor). All electronics work. The interior is good, seats and headliner are great but the dash is pretty rough ($30 model specific cover on rockauto.com, or as easy as a handful of screws underneath and on top to change out with a new one). 

Sounds great, it's loud, starts immediately, serious head turner (you will be asked about it and asked for photographs so be prepared to look a bit conspicuous). You will not see another one of these around town, and nothing in this shape. This car will be worth pretty big $$ in the not-to-far future, so consider this an investment and daily driver 'project.' I'm moving cross-country for work and would like to keep this car with its Cali plates, so here is your opportunity.

Excellent car to tune, the rear suspension can be raised to fit drag slicks, you can still buy the original gaslite carb trees to make this a 3 carb L6, or even just a rejet on the current carb and an open-air filter to give even greater oomph.

Ford unveils all-new 2016 F-650 and F-750 at NTEA

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

Medium-duty work trucks might not be the most exciting vehicles, but they perform necessary jobs everyday. Ford is in the process of a complete refresh of its entire commercial vehicle lineup over the next 18 months, and it is debuting the all-new versions of its F-650 and F-750 trucks at the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, IN.
"The all-new F-650/F-750 allow us to leverage our strengths and sales leadership in Classes 1 to 5 to create a better F-650/F-750 that's designed, engineered and built by Ford in the USA," said Ford spokesperson Mike Levine to Autoblog via email.
Huge amounts of torque is vital for trucks like these, and both models are offered with some of Fords biggest engines. Buyers can opt for either the 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel with TorqShift 6-speed automatic with available power takeoff or a gasoline-fueled 6.8-liter V10 with a 6-speed automatic. The V10 can also be ordered from the factory to be fueled by compressed natural gas or liquid propane gas.

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.

Galpin Auto Sports and Fisker turn the Mustang into a Rocket in LA [w/video]

Thu, Nov 20 2014

Galpin Auto Sport and Henrik Fisker made big promises about the Rocket before its debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show today, calling it the "ultimate American muscle car." Now that this 725-horsepower carbon-fiber Ford Mustang has officially been revealed, we've now got a chance to see if their vision backs up all the bluster. The Rocket is based off the latest 2015 Mustang, but the entire exterior design has been substantially reworked by Fisker. "This is a project born out of passion, it's a dream come true, to have the opportunity to 'touch' a Mustang and apply my design ideas to it," he says in the model's announcement. The biggest changes come up front, where Fisker has added a gaping hexagonal grille with a polished bar running and two nearly hidden driving lights at the top corners. Long nostrils run down each side of the hood, taking their inspiration from the 1968 Shelby GT500. The Rocket's design also emphasizes its scalloped sides, which run back to functional ducts at the rear to cool the Brembo Grand Turismo brakes. When checking out the Rocket from the rear, it's easy to spot the wider fenders that are beautifully blended into the integrated spoiler. The interior has been left mostly alone beyond some eye-grabbing red leather and carbon-fiber trim. Under the hood, Galpin spokesperson Nathan Hoyt has confirmed to Autoblog that the Rocket employs a 5.0-liter V8 with a Whipple supercharger which can be called to attention with a six-speed manual gearbox. It took only a few months for the vehicle to go from conception to reality. Fisker showed Galpin President Beau Boeckmann early sketches at this year's Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, and the two parties went from there. "When Henrik showed me his ideas, I got chills - it's literally the most beautiful Mustang I have ever seen," says Boeckmann in the company's release. Production is set to begin in December, with deliveries starting in early 2015. There's no set production total in mind for now, but Hoyt tells Autoblog that the price will be "just over $100,000."
