1965 Ford Falcon Futura 302 No Rust Straight Car on 2040-cars
Siletz, Oregon, United States
1965 Ford Falcon Futura. This is a straight Falcon purchased in Reno, NV. Dave was told by previous owner that it was the owner of circus-circus's car originally (no documentation though), and that he's the third owner. I believe this car has been garaged its whole life. I can say with certainty that it's been garaged the last 8 years.Dave built this car for speed, and was only allowed one pass at the Woodburn Oregon drag strip. It ran in the 10's and was told to get it back on the trailer until I put a roll cage in.
OK, Let's start with the engine. It has a 302 bored .30 over, trick flow iron heads, headers, 9 qt. Moroso oil pan, Weiand dual plane manifold, holley 650 cfm carb, Mallory distributor and wires, Earls fittings, hoses, and filter, x-system exhaust with supertrapps, driveshaft loop, three speed automatic transmission with B&M ratchet shifter, 4.56 gears with limited slip, and an eight inch rear end.It has heavy duty springs, traction bars, and battery mounted in trunk. The interior has stock headliner and rear seat in good shape for age. The front is two racing bucket seats with 4 pt. harness. It has after market guages mounted underneath the dash (check pics) no radio installed The exterior is rust free, and the body is pretty straight. (Once again, check pics) We tried to point out little flaws, but they're hard to see in the pics.The door locks, and the antenna are missing, as you can see in the pics. The tires have 95% of the tread left. Extras included with the car are straight rust free front left and right fenders, stock hood, and stock rear end. The car has a clear title. The only other item I've sold worth more than a couple hundred bucks, was Dave's 1940 Indian motorcycle a couple years ago. So, he told me he'd be willing to do a no reserve with low starting price. The car is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early. Dave did say, that if a bid is in, he'll honor it, and not end the auction. At end of auction 500.00 paypal deposit required, and we can make pick up or shipping arrangements. Any questions, and I won't be surprised if there are some, call Dave at 541-270-7699. You may have to leave message, but he'll get back to you. You can ask questions here, and if I can't answer, I'll get the answer from Dave. This is a nice car that won't disappoint. Odometer says almost 70,000, but may, or may not be correct. Please check out the video on youtube. On search put in 1965 ford falcon Futura 302 Thanks for looking. |

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 15 Oct 2013I'm not overly inclined to professional jealousy, as a rule. Sure, I go a bit green around the eyes when Ramsey draws the 911 GT3 trip to Weissach, Harley is tapped-in to drive a completely stunning Porsche 911 by Singer, or, you know, Drew Phillips gets to shoot a Lamborghini Veneno in the middle of a desert like some sort of sheik. I hate you guys...
Honestly though, one of the new car events that dug me the most, was when our Steven J. Ewing got to fling the Ford Fiesta ST around some hot corner of Europe. What goes around comes around, I suppose, as Mr. Ewing himself espoused an envious nature of the Focus ST trip that came before.
The good news in all this covetous intra-office behavior? All the cars mentioned, and specifically the Fiesta ST, are just wonderful to drive. I can say that with more confidence than ever now, having joined Ford for a good bit of Fiesta-flinging myself. In my case, the locale was slightly more pedestrian (Michigan not Portugal), and the car in question was the five-door version of the Fiesta ST that we get here in The States, as opposed to the three-door number they get across the pond.
