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.

Generation Z prefers Ford, wants better fuel efficiency

Mon, Mar 2 2015

Fear not the future, dear green-car enthusiast. For the youngest drivers like good gas mileage. And they don't really like SUVs or trucks. Breathe easier. About 80 percent of drivers ages 16 to 21, part of what's known as 'Generation Z,' prefer cars more than any other type of larger light-duty vehicle, with about half of that group preferring compact cars, The Detroit News says, citing data company MaritzCX. That company polled about 1,100 prospective young car buyers and found them to put a priority on fuel economy because that group is... well, cheap. To put that demographic's vehicle choice into perspective, just a third of light-duty vehicles sold in the US last year were cars, while the rest were SUVs and trucks. So the future is bright, and possibly devoid of some of the smog we're now seeing. Meanwhile, Ford is the most popular brand among younger drivers, again reflecting that company's more recent emphasis on hybrids, plug-ins and high-fuel-economy gas-burning engines. Ford's US green car sales fell 1.4 percent last year to about 86,500 units (falling C-Max Hybrid demand pulled the American automaker's numbers down), so we'd think that this is very welcome news for the Blue Oval.

Ford worker files for UAW dues refund, stirs right-to-work debate

Sun, 24 Aug 2014

Let's start with some history: Ford's Dearborn truck plant, part of the company's massive River Rouge complex, was the center of a strike in 1941 that led to Ford signing the first "closed shop" agreement in the industry. The agreement obliged every worker at the plant to be a dues-paying member of the United Auto Workers. In December 2012, however, Michigan Governor Rick Snyder signed legislation making Michigan a right-to-work state, which outlawed closed shops. The new law gave workers the right to opt out of union membership and stop paying dues even if they were still covered by union activities like collective bargaining. For employees at the Dearborn plant, the right-to-work clauses take effect at the end of their current contract in 2015.
As a tool-and-die maker at Ford's Dearborn plant for 16 years, Todd Lemire pays dues to the UAW - about two hours' salary per month. However, he's been unhappy with the UAW's support of the Democratic party, and not wanting to wait until next year to be out of the UAW entirely he invoked his Beck Rights, which state that a non-member of a union does not have to pay dues to support non-core activities, such as political spending. But Lemire wasn't happy that Ford still subtracted the total amount of dues, with the UAW reimbursing the difference, so he filed suit with the National Labor Relations Board, feeling that the workaround violates his rights.
Lemire's case is just a week old, so it could be a while before a resolution. Yet, as September 15, 2015 draws near and the right-to-work laws take full effect for Michigan workers - and others wonder whether it could help revitalize the state's manufacturing base - a case like this adds more fuel to the discussion.
