Up for your consideration is my 62 Ford Falcon Pro Street Project.  I got the car from my in-laws with plans to finish it out, but I have other projects I would like to get to so this one needs to go.  It has a Pro built (18K in receipts) chassis which consists of square tubing from the front that joins to round tubing at the firewall.  Roll cage is swept at the doors for easy in access.  Also has really nice sheetmetal work as well.  It is set up for a small block Chevrolet and 400 turbo.  It has a 9 in Ford in the rear and a 3-link rear with coilovers at all 4 corners.  Mustang 2 front end with manual steering.  Also has disc brakes all the way around.

 

New Parts:

 

Glastek 4" cowl hood and front and rear bumpers

Flaming river steering column

Master cylinder with custom brake pedal

Steel fuel cell with GM sending unit

Battery box

31 spline Strange axles

Coil over shock front end mustang kit and all rear suspension is new

Weld Pro Star wheels and Mickey Thompson street tires.  Skinnies out front and 29x15.5x15 in the rear

 

Used:

 

Good used trunk with no rust (one dent)

Good front fenders with a little surface rust, no "rot through"

Grill and headlight rings

Several sets of front and rear window moldings

Radio delete plate

Right and left doors that need minimal body work

 

I am sure there are some things I am forgetting.  The car has had rear quarters installed and the only other rust aside from just light surface rust from sitting in my garage is a little at the upper firewall under the top of the front fenders.  The car is set up really nice and I am taking a major hit at my reserve price.  I have around 25K in the car like it sits and all the work up to this point is very nicely done.  Dave Hunt Racecraft here in Virginia did all the work on the chassis and frame.  The front bench seat was also shortened to fit inside the door bars.  I do not have any of the glass other than the glass that is in the used doors and I have not checked their condition.  This is a great start to a nice Falcon and I am sure the buyer would be very happy to own it.  I just don't have the time to finish everything I have going on right now.  Any questions at all please ask them and I would prefer the buyer come take a look at the car to see what they are getting.  Thanks for looking.  Clear title on the car as well.

Pickup prices rising at 2x industry average

Tue, 11 Jun 2013

We've said it before, but bears repeating: Pickup trucks are the financial engines of America's automakers. Good thing, then, that the segment is in rude health - in fact, Automotive News is suggesting that pickup truck sales are arguably healthier than they were pre-recession, even though the segment's volume is still significantly down from where it was before the bottom fell out of the US economy. That's because per-unit profits on full-size trucks are skyrocketing, outpacing the industry's average price increases by more than double since 2005. According to data from Edmunds, the average transaction price of a full-size pickup is now $39,915 - a heady increase over the $31,059 average price in 2005 - a gain of over 8 percent after inflation is factored in.
Just how important are trucks to automakers' bottom lines? Automotive News quotes a Morgan Stanley analyst as saying the Ford F-Series is responsible for 90 percent of the company's 2012 profits, and General Motors isn't far behind, with the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins chipping in about two-thirds of the automaker's earnings.
Automotive News points out that Detroit's automakers now have the money to invest in modernizing their full-size truck offerings, in part because they don't have the same overhead and legacy costs that pushed General Motors and Chrysler into bankruptcy. Certainly, the pickup segment has seen a lot of innovations as of late, including turbocharged V6s, coil-spring rear suspensions and active aero. Those improvements in important areas like fuel economy and ride comfort have given existing pickup buyers new reasons to upgrade. In addition, automakers are piling on the tech and luxury goodies, creating more and more high-content, high-profit models like the Ford F-150 King Ranch, Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn and Chevrolet Silverado High Country (shown).

Ford will keep Escape and MKC plant open an extra week to meet demand

Thu, Jun 8 2017

Crossovers keep selling like popular pastries, and for Ford, that means it needs to keep production going. The company announced that, rather than the usual two-week shutdown, its Louisville, Ky., assembly plant will be open for one of those weeks. The plant builds the Ford Escape and Lincoln MKC, which Ford reports have had record sales. According to Ford, Escape sales through May are up 3 percent, and MKC sales are up 10 percent compared with last year. In total, the Escape has sold about 130,000 units through May, and the MKC has sold around 11,000. Keeping the Louisville plant open will allow the company to build an additional 8,500 vehicles. Ford stated that all other assembly plants will continue with the two-week shutdown as scheduled.
