1967 FORD FALCON
SPORT COUPE

You are looking at a 1967 Ford Falcon Sport Coupe (factory 289 Car) Project. I purchased this car in 2009 with the intentions of restoring it, as you can see it still needs some work. This car was produced in the Kansas City plant and sent to Phoenix Arizona, where it stayed until 2008. When I got the car it was 99% rust free. It had a spot of rust the size of a quarter on passenger floor and it's fair share of dents and dings. I had a local body shop strip it down, make all the repairs,  and repaint it 69 Mustang Black Jade Metallic. I purchased and installed an entire front suspension package from Laurel Mountain Mustang, and a disc brake conversion from Scare Bird Industries (still needs calipers).  The 289 had been removed before I got the car, so I purchased a low mileage rebuilt 69 351 Windsor from a wrecked Mercury Cougar which comes with the car. I do have the original c4 but it is in pieces. I have the original bucket seats as well as a bench seat, but all of the interior will need to be redone.  Car has original 8 inch rear and and I also have a rebuildable 9 inch. I took all of the metal trim ( I do not have the side mouldings) to a shop to be straightened and  refinished about 2 weeks ago and should have everything back by the 1st of November. Therefore if you purchase the car I will take $1000.00 off the final price and you can pay me the rest when I get it back.  This car has a lot of potential, but I really don't have the time and would like to have my garage back. Most of the hard and expensive work has already been done. The starting bid is the reserve, and is about half of what I have in it.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have, or if you would like  set up a time to to look at it.

First 1K next-gen Mustangs to carry 2014 1/2 model year?

Thu, 18 Jul 2013

A new report from Mustangs Daily, citing insider sources at Ford, tells us that the Blue Oval will produce 1,000 next-generation Mustangs with the model year designation of 2014 ½, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the storied marque. The commemorative half-year designation is a rumor that's been swirling in Mustang forums for quite some time now, and seems more plausible than ever with this most recent report. Certainly it's not far-fetched to believe that Ford will want to make a big deal of the golden anniversary for its most-loved model.
The story (compiled by Drew Phillips, who runs the aforementioned Mustang site when he's not directing the photography on these pages) goes on to say that the limited-run cars will be the first built on the new Mustang platform internally known as S550 (and spied testing in the attached gallery). Each car is said to carry a "special" VIN and build number, though no performance upgrades versus the 2015 cars to follow are in the works. A collector's dream then, rather than a weekend racer's.

Ford Explorer Jackson Pollock Edition results in trip to hospital

Tue, 02 Jul 2013

Among the many useful pieces of driving advice we've taken to heart over the years, "Safely secure all cargo" is etched pretty high on our personal stone tablets. We've had a couple of frustrating moments over the years (numerous wonky cupholders and too-tall lidded cups; a radar detector that released its suction cups and dashed itself below the dashboard, etc.), but never anything like the scene above.
These photos above come courtesy of the Washington State Patrol, and they show the unfortunate aftermath of a driver, his dog, and his Ford Explorer after it crashed near the town of Belfair last week. According to reports, the man was schlepping five-gallon containers of paint inside his vehicle when he was involved in an unexplained accident. It's not clear what triggered the crash, but the impromptu abstract painting covered the whole of the interior, including the driver and his faithful companion.
The man was transported to a local hospital for minor injuries, and his dog was cleaned and later taken to a humane society.

Ford and Chrysler reducing summer plant shutdowns

Wed, 22 May 2013

Most domestic automaker assembly plants traditionally take a couple of weeks off during the summer. The shutdowns give each plant time for much needed repairs and maintenance, and in some cases, help better align production with demand. Not this year, though, as demand for many models is outstripping what Ford, Chrysler and General Motors plants can produce.
Ford has announced that it will shorten its annual summer shutdown for most North American plants from two weeks to one. The shorter shutdown will increase the carmaker's annual North American production by 40,000 units on top of the 200,000 extra units that it was already planning to produce this year versus last. Automotive News reports that Ford produced 2.8 million vehicles on this continent in 2012, and that output this year has already increased 13 percent through April.
Chrysler, meanwhile, is also operating at full tilt and plans to run some plants through the summer with no shutdown at all. Those not getting a break include Jefferson North where the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango are assembled, Toledo North that will assemble the new Cherokee, and Conner Avenue, home of SRT Viper production. Other assembly plants will be down for a single week, while all of Chrysler's engine and transmission plants except one in Indiana will continue operating with no shutdown this summer.
