1967 Mexican Ford Falcon Coupe on 2040-cars
Palmdale, California, United States
|
Here is a 1967 ford Falcon 2 door sedan. it was built in mexico using the same tooling that they used in the us, so although the registration year is a 69 the body style is 67. it also has the Mexican 289 in it that is supposed to be a lot stronger then the regular ford small blocks. i haven't been able to find out either way, i have read that they can easily support 800-1000hp and i have also read they it was just a ploy to bump up value. i have no idea, either way i need the car gone. it has spent at least the last ten or so years in the high desert of California and has new drum brakes and that about it. it has very little rust but the body does need a bit of work. the engine turns smoothly about 15 deg or so then stops fairly hard, this is good because its prime for a rebuild and bad because you have to rebuild it. the 3 speed transmission "three on the tree" needs to have the linkage redone. it is sitting on original cragars and they are pretty clean except for some light surface rust, one is slightly bent and there is one cap missing. This car has all of the original A/C pieces. i doubt they work but its all there. so even if you have the space and time to part this car out you can pretty easily double your money. i have neither, unfortunately i have to sell this car. falcon coupes are super rare, and Mexican ones at that. yes i know that the VIN reads its a 68 mustang made in mexico, i dont know what to tell you. thats just what it says, if you can find a breakdown that says different please tell me! thanks!

2015 Ford F-150 to get 2.7-liter EcoBoost?
Mon, 30 Dec 2013As we prepare for the arrival of the all-new, next-generation Ford F-150, rumors about the new truck are picking up steam. Naturally, many of said rumors aren't just related to the way the truck will look (it's expected to take design cues from the Atlas concept shown above), they're tied to what's going to motivate the Blue Oval mainstay, with Ford's EcoBoost range likely to play an increasingly key role. While we're still expecting the current 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 to retain its position as a premium alternative to Ford's naturally aspirated V6 and V8, a Canadian automotive news site is proposing that the Dearborn automaker is also preparing a new, more fuel-efficient downsized EcoBoost option.
Autos.ca is reporting that a new, 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 could find its way into the lighter, aluminum-intensive truck. The new engine supposedly makes use of asymmetrical turbos to generate 320 horsepower and 370 pound-feet of torque - substantially more impressive numbers than the current 3.7-liter base engine's 302 ponies and 278 lb-ft - while offering improved fuel economy and emissions. The new 2.7 EcoBoost (internally dubbed "Nano") isn't expected to supplant the naturally aspirated V6 as the F-150's base engine, it's expected to slot in above directly it.
Naturally, we're prescribing more than a few grains of salt to go with these rumors, at least until Ford debuts the next F-150 at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, a reveal we'll be covering in a mere two weeks.
Ford Focus 1.0-liter Ecoboost to only get manual trans in US
Sun, 23 Feb 2014Photos of the 2015 Ford Focus leaked earlier today, but now we're able to tell you more details of the global five-door hatchback. Bucking automaker's troubling trend of ditching manual transmissions in favor of automatics, Ford says the new 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine will come only in a six-speed manual in the US, because, well, American drivers aren't as sophisticated as our European brothers and sisters.
Ford didn't come out and say it that way, but it has found American drivers are more prone to complain about automatics in smaller-engine cars, Raj Nair, Ford's group vice president of global product development, said at a press conference last week. The recent JD Power Vehicle Dependability Study backs up Ford's claims, pointing out that drivers are complaining about rough transmission shifts, engine hesitation and lack of power, particularly in small cars. In Europe and other parts of the world, drivers seem to understand the quirks of these pint-sized engines, Nair said, so they'll have the option to buy an automatic. Ford is working on tuning its dual-clutch transmissions to make them more amenable to American driver's tastes.
Ford will show off the refreshed 2015 Focus at the Geneva Motor Show in early March. The car is due for an update, having been on sale in its current form since 2012. The automaker said it is jamming the car full of new technology - like a USB port that promises to charge your phone in half the time as a regular USB port. Features like Sync and a rear back-up camera will come standard. For a more in-depth look at the car, take a look at the full press release.
