1964

 

Up for auction is our 1964 Ford Custom.  That's right, this is not a Galaxie, Its very rare and unusual "Custom".  

This car began life as a 6 cyl / three speed as many of the plane jane cars did.  It has been built into a 390 big block 4-speed as a clone. Everything on this car was redone or replaced.  Every car event it goes to, it gets lots of attention and draws a crowd. 

The engine is a March of '64 block and is closely dated to the car.  It is fully rebuilt with approximately 5,000 miles on it.  Bored .030 with all new internals and fresh throughout.  Holley carb and Edelbrock intake.  The transmission is a T-10 out of a '63 406 car, with a Lakewood scatter shield and all new clutch components.  The shifter is correct with the reverse lockout handle.  New balanced driveline and the stock 9" rear differential.  All rebuilt brakes.  New dual exhaust with flowmaster mufflers (sounds very cool and is not too loud).  Wheel Vintiques 15x8 steelies made for the factory poverty caps with Goodyear radials.  235/60 in front and 255/60 in the rear, giving the car a old school yet very  aggressive look.  Under the hood is very well detailed and extremely clean.

This car has been in Colorado its entire life and is absolutely rust free.  The body is very straight and has never had floors or any rust repair.  The inside of the trunk floor is untouched and looks new!  The paint is the original color and is fresh and flawless.  All of the glass is very nice, the side glass all glides up and down smoothly.  All new weather strip and moldings.  The bright work is all very nice and original, the anodized aluminum parts  appear to be NOS. The bumpers are the stock steel bumpers that are powder coated silver for that lightweight look.  The interior is all new (seats, headliner, door panels, package tray, kick panels, carpet and dash paint)  and smells like a new car.   The seats were recovered using the very last of NOS material SMS had for a '64 Ford Custom.  All gauges are restored and work properly.  Erra correct wood wheel for that Nostalgic street racer look.  Factory radio and clock delete plates. 

This car is a freshly restored Ford that is very unique and different.  Its always a great conversation piece and is a joy to drive.  I have been with ebay since 2008 and have a 100% score.  Im a honest seller who has nothing to hide, so please ask questions as I am sure I have missed something.

  Thank you for viewing my '64 Custom.      Monte   (512) 446-4044

2015 Ford Mustang already under recall, but just 53 units

Sun, 19 Oct 2014

Ford has issued a small - but significant - recall for one of its spotlight cars: the 2015 Mustang.
The recall affects just 53 cars, with 50 in the United States and three in Canada. Ford said the passenger side safety belt buckle tension sensor may not have been calibrated properly by the supplier. This could lead to "misclassification" of the passenger seat occupant, and could cause the airbag to deploy improperly.
A Ford spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement, the automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries, and dealers will replace the buckle assembly at no cost to customers. The cars affected were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 18 to Oct. 2.

Ford Focus 1.0-liter Ecoboost to only get manual trans in US

Sun, 23 Feb 2014

Photos of the 2015 Ford Focus leaked earlier today, but now we're able to tell you more details of the global five-door hatchback. Bucking automaker's troubling trend of ditching manual transmissions in favor of automatics, Ford says the new 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine will come only in a six-speed manual in the US, because, well, American drivers aren't as sophisticated as our European brothers and sisters.
Ford didn't come out and say it that way, but it has found American drivers are more prone to complain about automatics in smaller-engine cars, Raj Nair, Ford's group vice president of global product development, said at a press conference last week. The recent JD Power Vehicle Dependability Study backs up Ford's claims, pointing out that drivers are complaining about rough transmission shifts, engine hesitation and lack of power, particularly in small cars. In Europe and other parts of the world, drivers seem to understand the quirks of these pint-sized engines, Nair said, so they'll have the option to buy an automatic. Ford is working on tuning its dual-clutch transmissions to make them more amenable to American driver's tastes.
Ford will show off the refreshed 2015 Focus at the Geneva Motor Show in early March. The car is due for an update, having been on sale in its current form since 2012. The automaker said it is jamming the car full of new technology - like a USB port that promises to charge your phone in half the time as a regular USB port. Features like Sync and a rear back-up camera will come standard. For a more in-depth look at the car, take a look at the full press release.
