I have a 1963 Ford Falcon up for auction, the vehicle was purchased in 1963 in Gainesville, GA. The original owner had it up until he died 10 years ago, and then his family kept the car around till they decided to sell it in July of 2012. We purchase the vehicle with the intentions of making a daily driver. Unfortunately with the way my business is going we do not have time to work on it anymore because we are so busy and every time we bring in a new car this falcon gets put further back in line to be worked on. This is how far we have made it with the car; we did a complete tune-up on the car including cap, rotor, plugs, wires, fuel filter, oil, filter and fluids changed, and rebuilt the carb. the original fuel pump was not working so we rebuilt it and still could not get the pump to pump enough fuel to run correctly. We bought a electric fuel pump and the car ran fine, we drove it around the parking lot a few times to get the brakes to unlock and if we had had enough time that probably could have been worked out. The new fuel pump needs to be wired to the key switch because as of now it is wired to the battery. The car has manual drum brakes all the way around it and are typical of sitting are a little seized up and would need to have some work done on them either replacing or cleaned up and adjusted. While you had them off I would replace or pack the wheel bearings because I'm not sure when the last time they were done. The clutch and transmission seems to shift and work properly. The car is still set up with a three speed on the column. Rear end also seems to be in good working order in the little bit it was driven. While the vehicle was in the shop it slipped off the jack and either punctured the radiator or punctured the lower radiator hose. Not sure though about the radiator we have not looked it over. The body is in over all good shape. the original owner was involved in an accident in the left rear quarter and it was fixed a long time ago. over the years the body filler got some water behind it and separated the filler from the metal, causing some rust. all of the body filler has been removed and either needs a lower quarter section welded in or someone that knows how to do body work. over all the body is in good shape. The left front fender was applied with aircraft stripper to determine paint thickness and to determine the amount of work to be preformed by our guys in the shop. the floor pans and trunk pan are solid. this is a GA car and has been local its whole life and mostly parked in a garage. the doors open and shut nice, and the dash is nice. its missing the carpet. the seats are all there and in good shape except for someone spraying fabric dye on them and not doing a good job. Please feel free to come take a look at the car or call for any other information. The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early do to local sale. Car does not have a title and is not required here in GA, will come with bill of sale form from the State Of Georgia.

Ford Australia launches Falcon GT F 351, last of its line [w/video]
Sun, 15 Jun 2014It's always best to go out with a bang rather than a whimper, and Ford Performance Vehicles is doing just that in Australia with the Falcon GT F 351. It's the most powerful road car the Aussie performance brand has ever made with a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 pumping out 471 horsepower (351 kilowatts) and 420 pound-feet of torque. It's joined by the FPV Pursuit Ute with the same powerplant tuned to 422 hp and 402 lb-ft. Sadly, the last F in this Falcon's name stands for Final.
The GT F 351 is a monumental way to go out, though. It harkens back to the old days of Aussie muscle Fords, and the 351kw output is meant to reference the classic Falcon GT and its 351-cubic-inch V8. In addition to the massive power, the F has the improved suspension from the R-Spec model and Brembo brake calipers.
FPV is building just 500 GT F sedans for Australia and 50 more for New Zealand, plus 120 Pursuit Utes. They feature a blacked-out hood and black stripes over the hood and sides, plus gloss black accents around the headlights, door handles and mirrors.
Ford confirms 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine for 2014 Fusion
Thu, 11 Apr 2013Earlier this week, reports were swirling 'round the internet about the 2014 Ford Fusion getting a new 1.5-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. That was... half correct. Ford today confirmed that the 2014 Fusion is, in fact, getting a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost mill, but it has four cylinders, not three.
The new 1.5-liter engine will be the fifth EcoBoost powerplant from Ford Motor Company. Initially to be built at the automaker's Craiova, Romania plant, it will also be offered in the Fusion's twin, the Mondeo, in other markets. This engine will debut at the Shanghai Motor Show next month, and the 1.5-liter is of particular importance in the Chinese market - there is significant tax relief in the People's Republic for vehicles powered by engines with a capacity of 1.5 liters or less.
At a media briefing Thursday, Ford declined to divulge exact power or fuel economy numbers, though Joe Bakaj, vice president of powertrain engineering, told Autoblog that power output should be similar to that of the current 1.6-liter inline-four, and that overall efficiency will be "better than the 1.6." Our earlier report stated that the 1.5-liter four will produce 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque - losses of 1 hp and 7 lb-ft versus the 1.6-liter engine. Ford states that the 1.5-liter four will feature many of the same technologies used on the company's 1.0-liter EcoBoost inline-three, including an integrated exhaust manifold that recaptures much of the engine's heat.
National Geographic Channel balances Ford F-150 on four coffee mugs
Wed, 29 Jan 2014Proving that there is still something to be learned on television these days, National Geographic Channel recently introduced a new series called Duck Quacks Don't Echo. On the first episode of this science/comedy show, host Michael Ian Black proposes the idea that a truck can be supported with a ceramic coffee mug under each wheel - yes, he says that the entire weight of a truck can be balanced on just four coffee mugs.
Looking to find out whether this is fact or myth, the show uses a regular cab Ford F-150, weighing in at 4,800 pounds, and four average coffee mugs. Lowered onto the mugs, the idea is quickly put to the test. Can the cups hold up under 4,800 pounds? If so, what, exactly, would it take to break them? Scroll down below to find out.
