1961 Ford Falcon 2 Door Station Wagon (like Sedan Delivery) on 2040-cars
Ada, Oklahoma, United States
|
I will try to describe this car best as I can. This is a very restorable vehicle.....The body is in good conditon...no major damage or rust. The only rust through I could see was two small holes on the hood, which IMO could be easily fixed with a MIG ......fenders, doors, quarters, tailgate good condition......I didn't crawl under car but there will be some floor work required but I dont think a total replacement.
Overall rust is not a major issue .. The rust you see in the photo is 99.9% surface rust. All the glass is in the car except the passenger vent window and all is in good condition.....Front seat is missing but I believe a two door Falcon coupe has same seat...rear seat is there...instrument panel good condition... All the trim is on the car, One trim piece. on the upper rear left quarter looks like somebody was bending it on purpose.....some dings in other trim but not bad and can be fixed..... Since it is stainless a professional could restore all pieces...one piece would take considerable work. the other only minor work.. Engine is a six banger, with a three on the tree tranny...believe it or not this car was a good running vehicle when parked about 40 years ago....hood has never been up since then so no water got on the engine...the oil is clean in the engine......I would almost bet that it would start with new points, plugs wires and carb rebuild...Remember it has been sitting in a fairly dry environment jn Oklahoma... I was going to haul this back to Florida but when I went to get it I had with me 14 inch tires and discovered that it has 13 inch four lug rims...that is why it is on blocks as I took three of the wheels off to get tires mounted.......i am almost sure the brake drums will be difficult to turn since it has been sitting for a long time and possible they will require replacement, I picked up a 57 Dodge same day I bought this and had to cut the brake drums off....Chances are the drums will have to be replaced anyway on the Falcon....\\ . Fortunately the dry Oklahoma weather didn't take it's toll on this collectible car and although the surface rust makes it look rough, it really is not....... Had it been down here in Florida with me it would be a rust bucket......whew.....It will require a little work to get the brake drums to turn and load this car on a trailer. Also the rear springs will need to be replaced as a couple of the leafs are broken. This I understand was a major problem on early Falcons because they are only 2 inches wide. I believe in 64 they put the 2.5 inch mustang type springs on Falcons....a good move on Ford's part......The car can be loaded and trailered but those springs will have to be replaced. I have found repo springs for about $100........... I will deliver this car to anywhere in just about the whole southeast for the cost of $1 a mile from it's current location. I will not deliver north of Oklahoma or west of Oklahoma...... Draw a line from Oklahoma City to Tallahassee FL and I will deliver anywhere close to that... otherwise it is LOCAL PICKUP only......Remember it will require some brake drum work....I have three 13 inch tires in the car but they need to be mounted. Best thing would be to bring four good four lug ford rims with tires and a trailer... Once again I will not arrange shipping other than where I have stated. It would be up to you to go get the car or arrange shipping. Since it will be hard to load take that into consideration BEFORE you bid......... The car is located in Ada, Oklahoma I do not have a title but can get one for an additional $250 over the selling price. It belonged to my uncle last and the Oklahoma DMV said it cost that much to get a duplicate title....... It will take a couple weeks to do that after the sale of the car...otherwise you will get a bill of sale and you can obtain your own title. Different states have different rules and cost for obtaining a title for non titled car...again take that into consideration BEFORE you bid.... This is a rare Falcon..I have not seen another one in a long time ...This wagon is five times as rare as a two door coupe and the least produced of all the Falcon lines.......two doors are very desireable ......I love the looks of the windows in ths car............. I can be reached at 850 377 8472 with any questions or send me an email.. I will accept pay pal for deposit and it is NON REFUNDABLE due with two days of sale...full price due within a week.....no exceptions..... I am honest you be honest with me....... |

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
Chrysler called out over lackluster Ram Runner by racer who helped develop it
Fri, 11 Apr 2014Fans of off-roading and desert blasting might recall that Chrysler offers an aftermarket conversion that can turn a Ram 1500 into a road-legal desert racer, called the Ram Runner. The kit, sold through Mopar, includes some significant suspension upgrades, body tweaks and a brawnier cat-back exhaust for the truck's 5.7-liter V8.
Considering all of this, comparisons with the almighty Ford F-150 SVT Raptor are common. Among the off-road community, that makes these two a sort of Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang for people that prefer driving on dirt. In the Race-Dezert forum, the discussion as to which truck was better was proceeding as normal - Ram fans said their piece and Ford fans said theirs. Then, a man named Kent Kroeker offered up his two cents.
See, Kroeker is a Baja racer, and the man that helped develop the Ram Runner. Despite his association with the truck, though, he had some less than kind words for Chrysler and the Ram Runner.
