1962 Ford Falcon Futura 2 Dr - One Owner - No Accidents - 200ci - 3 Spd on 2040-cars
Atlanta, Georgia, United States
1962 Ford Falcon Futura - 2 door sedan - One Owner car - Purchased in Minnesota lived there for 6 months and moved to Augusta until now. The car has been garage kept and is in excellent condition for it's age. I have most of the service records for the car.
The car is equipped with a 200 c.i. straight six with a 3 speed on the column. The motor was rebuilt several years ago and has low mileage. New radiator and fuel pump. It runs and drives excellent, shifts smooth and has a very nice ride. Recently driven 120 plus miles on highway at 65+ mph. The car has a lot of torque with the 3 speed and 200 motor. It has power on the highway and you don't feel like you are getting run over by the modern guys. The car has new tires in great condition with original hubcaps. The exterior has been painted a few times over the years. The paint looks good but does have some imperfections. The hood has some small cracking of the paint. There are a few nicks off of the paint on the rockers and minor places on the body. The car has some minor dings but no major dents. The top of the car is very nice and everything lines up really nice for a ford. The car has never been in an accident and has no bondo or filler in the car. It's extremely straight (scary straight). The car looks really good from 15 feet. I would give the paint about a 6.6 but very good driver quality. The bumpers are straight no bends or anything. The chrome is in great condition small surface rusting on the top and a little fade but the shine like crazy. All the chrome trim is great shape except a small ding in the chrome on the drivers door near the seam - looks like someone bumped it with a car door. All badges and logos present. The trunk is in excellent condition with original style liner - spare cover and tool bag. Surface rust in the truck but nothing major - easily treated and stopped. The only rust I could find in the car is directly behind the driver seat and it's a few small places that someone put a small patch over inside the car (simple fix) The interior has been redone some time ago but it's tasteful. The dash and doors were painted back to factory color and are in excellent condition. The seats, door panels, headliner and carpet were replaced. They are in excellent condition and the interior shows really well. If you want to take it back to factory this is the perfect car - all of the seat covers and door panels are available. The headliner is all there has some stains but is in overall great driver condition. Original visors in great shape. The drivers window needs a little help going up and down but all windows do roll up and down. The car does need new vent window seals, window scrappers and rear window seal. The vent windows bring in a good amount of air through old seal. The rear window is not leaking I just noticed that it probably could use a seal sooner or later. The car has a aftermarket tape deck and two speakers in the back - nothing special but it's tunes. Instrument cluster in good shape a few small imperfections. Speedo works and gas gauge. Temp sensor gauge does not - work on that. The heat works it's just not that strong - i think on of the vents in the heater box is stuck close - working on that. All lights and turn signals works. The reverse lights have been unhooked. The steering wheel is in fair condition and the horn works but the contact ring is messed up - needs to be worked on a little. The emergency brake works but needs a little adjusting. The car runs and drives excellent has good brakes. It's registered, tagged, insured and daily driven. Floats down the road while snapping necks. Overall this is an amazing example of a 1962 Ford Falcon Futura. This car could be taken in some many directions. Drive it like it is or paint it and put the factory interior back. It's really a straight and amazing driving car. It has just two minor rust places. The car is being sold AS-IS with a Bill of Sale as required by the state of Georgia. I do not have a Title to this car. The buyer is responsible for pick up or shipping and the arrangement of either option. A deposit is required and the remaining balance should be paid within 72 hours of auction closing. The remaining balance is to be paid in cash preferably. I will not accept the remaining balance via paypal. Arrangements to pick up the car must be made in a timely manner (within 72 hours of auction close). I will do my best to make the transaction as simple as possible. Please email with any questions or leave a phone number if you would like to discuss the car. Please only bid on this car if you intent on purchasing the car. And lowball bidders have been set up to be declined automatically. Thanks in advanced. |

Kawei K1 pickup blatantly copies Ford F-150
Thu, Apr 24 2014The Chinese auto industry used to be looked at as a joke full of products blatantly copied from foreign vehicles. However, companies like Qoros and others show that the country's automakers have taken big steps in terms of original design. It doesn't look like every automaker there is ready to put down the tracing paper yet, though. Case in point: The Kawei K1 pickup pictured above, which is an obvious rip-off of the Ford F-150. In fact, the company isn't even hiding it. Kawei deserves a little credit for its openness. In describing the new model, it says: "No matter the black net grille and the outline of the headlamp, even if the styles of fog lamp and engine cover, it looks the same as Ford Raptor." It also admits that spelling out the model name on the hood is inspired by Land Rover. It's available with either a 2.4-liter, gasoline-fueled four-cylinder producing 141 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque (elsewhere it also lists it as having 162 lb-ft) or a 3.2-liter six-cylinder diesel with 106 hp and 181 lb-ft. Regardless of engine, power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual gearbox. The trucks cost around 100,000 Yuan ($16,033). So at least the K1 is a reasonably priced knockoff. According to Car News China, the K1 is actually selling in small numbers. The company made 10,000 of them last year and even exported some to Africa and the Middle East. Kawei's factory is doubling in capacity this year to build even more. You can read more about the truck on the company's website in some very mangled English.

Watch how Ken Block spent his weekend in Barbados
Thu, 22 May 2014Regardless of what you think of his skill as a racer, Ken Block is an expert showman. At this point, he has a career of showing up around the world to do vehicular stunts, and he's still able to go racing as well. It's a pretty sweet niche to carve out. Recently, Block was in Barbados to participate in Top Gear Live and the first event of the Global Rallycross Championship season, and Ford Racing produced a short video to show off his exploits.
It looked like a great show. Block got to race Lewis Hamilton in a Mercedes-Benz Formula One car and had a very weird crash during a Rallycross race that put his Ford Fiesta on its roof. Top Gear also released an extended look at Block and Hamilton's spectacle with the two of them expertly sliding around. Scroll down to watch the videos and get a taste of Block's tropical racing adventure.
Recharge Wrap-up: Ford 1.0L EcoBoost a hit in Europe; Build a tiny inverter, win $1 million
Mon, Aug 11 2014In Europe, Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine is the best-selling turbocharged gasoline engine. The three-cylinder motor powers 20 percent of new Fords sold in Europe. Earlier this year, it won its third International Engine of the Year award, and between January and June, it was sold in about 120,000 cars. So far this year, 38 percent of Fords sold in the Netherlands, 35 percent in Denmark and 32 percent in Switzerland have been powered by the 1.0-liter EcoBoost. The engine's turbocharger spins at 248,000 rpm, and provides 24 psi of pressure. The engine produces up to 138 horsepower, depending on the version. Read more in the press release below. When lithium-ion battery packs are retired from the road, remanufacturing, repurposing, and recycling are worthwhile options, according to a study by Mineta Transportation Institute. The study included a cost-benefit analysis of those three options, and found remanufacturing to be the best route. To get the most out of them, batteries should be tested and have their damaged cells replaced then put back to use. Repurposing is the second best option, using the remaining available charge for something besides cars. Recycling on its own isn't profitable, but it could make economic sense with "increased technological breakthroughs." Learn more at Recycling International or download the report here. A smaller inverter for EVs can win you $1 million. The Little Box Challenge is an open competition to build a power inverter with a density of at least 50 watts per cubic inch. Google and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) are offering the hefty prize to the team that builds the inverter with the highest power density within an enclosed volume of 40 cubic inches. Teams must register by September 30. Read more at Green Car Congress or learn more at the Little Box Challenge website.
