  Here is a VERY nice and VERY original 1963 Ford Falcon Futura 2dr sedan. This car has been in our family for over 20 years. It has been in indoor storage the past 10 years. Original paint, interior etc. Never restored. Very clean non restored car. 67967 actual miles. My mother drove this car to shows and cruise nights for several years and it has won many awards. Has been setting for 7-8 years. It fired right up with a hot battery and fresh gas less than a week ago.

  Engine is a 170 CI 6 cyl and sounds like a sewing machine!! Trans shifts good, rearend had new bearings and seals shortly before being parked. Carb had been rebuilt, and could probably use a basic kit from setting, but it did fire up and run, just didnt want to idle well. Brakes also work, but are sticking also due to setting. I think it would be fine with just a wheel cyl kit and fresh fluid. Shoes are good. Tires are like new, but are at least 10 years old. Paint is all original, some typical chips and blems from a 52 years of age, but shines and shows very well. Under side of car is also very clean, just dirt and cob webs from setting. Interior is Excellent for its age, no tears, or damage other than a couple dark age spots here and there, great carpet etc. Very impressive original interior for a car of this age!!!  Am radio works as it should, all guages etc also work. E brake, heater, wipers all work as they should. All good glass and seals. 1 small star in windshield, was repaired many years ago, but is visible. All suspension steering etc is still good and tight and works smoothly. Some extra parts include: grill and headlight rings, several extra carbs, extra guage cluster, extra matching hub cap, and some extra body trim, and 2 spare pass side front fenders, and possibly a few other parts I may have forgotten about.

    This is as clean of an original un-restored old Falcon as you could ask to find. In a short weekend it could be show and cruise night ready. Hate to sell it as it has been in the family a long time, but I can no longer stand to see it just sit. Someone should be out enjoying it. Feel free to call with questions at (573)338-5356. a deposit of 20% due within 48 hours of autions end, and full payment within 5 working days, unless arrangements are made prior to auctions end. I can store free of charge for 40 days as long as it has been paide for. $15 per day after, unless other arragements are agreed upon. I can help load onto a trailer etc, but arrangements are to be made by the purchaser. Im sure I may have missed something, or left something out, so feel fre to ask questions. If you have to ask your wife or girlfriend for permission, please have it BEFORE bidding!!! This car has been in storage for a while, and is NOT road ready, but easily put back on the road, so plaese keep that in mind. Thanks for looking.

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost loses big power on 87 octane

Mon, Jan 5 2015

The 2015 Ford Mustang with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder is a pretty potent package on paper. With 310 horsepower and 320 pound-feet of torque, it boasts better performance numbers than the 3.7-liter V6, but with better fuel economy as an added benefit. However, if you're in the market for one of these boosted 'Stangs, you should probably keep in mind that it really prefers to gulp premium, 93-octane fuel. It can drink 87-octane swill in a pinch, but you're going to find significantly less power underfoot when pulling away. While it's not shocking that the ponies are dialed back with a lower grade of gasoline, an alleged page from a Ford training manual obtained by Mustang 6G purports to show just how much power is lost, though. According to this document, the 2.3-liter EcoBoost makes 275 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque when running on lower octane fuel. That's a substantial reduction of about 11.3 percent compared to when the engine drinks 93 octane. Interestingly, according to Mustang 6G, that finding was a bit better than expected, because a Ford engineer reportedly said power would be down about 13 percent without altering peak torque. In speaking with Autoblog, Paul Seredynski of Ford powertrain communications, objected to part of this document. While he couldn't confirm the specific losses listed for the Mustang EcoBoost, "torque remains unchanged" with lower octane gasoline, Seredynski said. He speculated this training manual page was "possibly from before the engine was certified" and therefore showed incorrect figures. Serendynski did confirm that the automaker recommends using 93 octane, and like all modern engines, the software adapts if it's lower. "Peak power would be reduced" by using a lesser grade, he confirmed.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

Watch NASCAR racer Brad Keselowski do a burnout... in a hotel conference room

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

A vast majority of hotels frown upon smoking inside the building these days, but Brad Keselowski doesn't follow the rules. During his introduction at the 2013 MiilerCoors Distribution Convention, the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup champion smoked the tires of his Miller-sponsored Ford Fusion stock car, adding a pair of thick, black stripes to the carpeting of the Marriott World Center's conference room.
This definitely isn't a high-quality video, but it's the perfect vantage point to watch Keselowski lay down some rubber and receive a well-deserved standing ovation after pulling up in front of the crowd. Check out the short-but-sweet video posted below.
