This Falcon is in very good condition mechanically as well as body.  The 250 CI six runs well and the C4 automatic shifts great.  This Fairlane based Falcon, though a six cylinder, does have five lug wheels.  I bought the car last year from the original owner intending to install a big block V8 (V8 motor mounts are in the trunk) but I have too many projects and the drive train is really too nice to abandon anyway.  The interior is in good shape but the front bench seat needs recovered as the driver's side is bad.  Paint is good, as is, but the driver's door does not fit well.  Maybe some adjustment would help.  There's also a small dent, as shown in picture, at the top edge of the trunk lid.  Rust is not an issue.  I'm comfortable driving it anywhere and do often.  The power steering makes this full size ride easy to maneuver.  It's a great  cruiser for a very low price as is, or could be turned into a hot rod if you choose.  This model Falcon was only made the last five months of the 1970 model year so you won't see yourself coming and going like some other models. 

I've also inserted a picture of one of four 20" wheels I have from a 98 Mustang.  Two of the tires are brand new and the other two have about half their life left.  I'll include all four for an additional $500 if the buyer would like to have them.  I haven't tried them on the car but think they'd fit.  The existing tires on the car have lots of life left in them too.  For more info call 972-322-1355.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.

Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.
