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 probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.

Ford Mustang GT Bi-Fuel CNG

Tue, 23 Jul 2013

Highly intrigued, we recently visited a Southern California Gas Company office to check out several hybrid vehicles promising something new. Unlike more commonplace gasoline-electric hybrids, we were there to evaluate innovative gasoline-compressed natural gas (CNG) hybrids - yes, they run on unleaded gasoline and compressed natural gas. According to the experts on hand, this arrangement delivers extended range and reduced emissions while chipping in with lower operating costs than pure-gasoline vehicles. There are advantages over its gasoline-electric counterparts, as well.
The program is part of a three-way collaboration between The Carlab, a Southern California-based automotive consulting firm, Landi Renzo USA, a company specializing in alternative fuel solutions, and America's Natural Gas Alliance, a group that promotes CNG. Long story short, the team has engineered a way to allow a modified internal combustion vehicle to seamlessly switch between two fuels (gasoline and CNG) with no driver intervention. In theory, and if it works as well as promised, it's a win-win for the vehicle owner and the environment.
Parked at the Gas Company office were six different gasoline-CNG hybrid vehicles. To demonstrate the technology's versatility (just about any gasoline vehicle may be modified) Carlab brought a varied assortment of bodystyles, each from a different automaker. After taking a quick glance at the half-dozen in the parking lot, we made a beeline for the performance-oriented Ford Mustang GT - a 2012 model - with the six-speed manual gearbox.

Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla details factory expansion; Ford and SunPower raise money for Sierra Club

Thu, Nov 20 2014

Tesla has revealed the details of the upgrade of its Fremont, CA factory. One major change is the addition of a dedicated production space for the dual-motor P85D version of the Model S. Robots will be doing the battery installation on the Model S to save some time, and new export docks allow Tesla to get the cars out the door and on the way to their new owners more quickly. The new robots that move the cars around the factory have been named after X-Men characters, which makes our inner geeks smile. Check out the factory upgrade in the time-lapse video below and read more at Teslarati or at the Tesla Motors Blog. A program in Beijing for privileged registrations for EVs hasn't had much success. Of the 1,424 lottery winners, only about 30 percent went on to register an electric car despite a two-month extension of the deadline to do so. Buyers are likely discouraged by the lack of charging infrastructure, which the city hopes to ameliorate with the addition of 1,000 new charging stations by the end of the year, and by requiring new and renovated developments to set aside parking specifically for EV charging. Read more at Green Car Reports. The UC Davis Institute of Transportation Studies suggests that laws designed to protect dealers and consumers are stymieing the adoption of EVs. Laws like the ones certain states have in place that block or otherwise restrict Tesla's direct-to-consumer business model are not helpful for companies that want to introduce new products to the market. They prevent companies from passing on savings to customers for whom they would likely make the difference in a purchasing decision. One possible solution would be to allow exemptions to certain selling restrictions for a certain number of vehicles sold. "This could give automakers the degree of control needed to work out kinks with early customers, develop scalable processes for supporting PEVs, and ensure that effective dealer performance standards are in place before handing the reins over to wholly independent retailers," according to UC Davis ITS.

The main purpose of the program is to move toward eco-friendlier carmaking at each of its plants worldwide.
