1963 Ford Fairlane Ranch Wagon Built Into A 3/4 Ton Truck on 2040-cars
Tucson, Arizona, United States
Road worthy, but does need to have the rear end rebuilt professionally. 4 Speed automatic transmission is completely mechanical in operation. No electronics involved in operation of transmission. You can have the original Turbo 400, that was in this Chevy long bed truck chassis. Rear Sections of 2 door Fairlane car also comes with this. Not just rear quarter panels, but a car that was cut into sections. New door locks and keys, along with new window regulator rollers. Original door locks work. New items will have to be installed. This wagon is complete. Nothing missing. Several odds and ends come with it. I built this vehicle into a truck. Corvette dual diaphragm power assist 4 wheel disk brakes. Chevy 350/Turbo 700R4. Heavy duty custom built drive shaft. 10.5 Corporate rear end, mounted onto trailing arm suspension with coil springs. Front end is 3/4 Ton. Power steering. Custom built 4 coil radiator, with separate transmission cooler. I am now a Partially Disabled Army Veteran, and having a hard time of completing this project. Handles very well, and brakes are proportioned properly. Wagon doesn't lean much or sway in turns. Takes bumps and railroad tracks level and sure. U-Turns within 1.5 lane width. One finger control of steering wheel. Title is CLEAN 1963 Ford Fairlane. I started this project in 2000. Local Pick Up and Drive Away.

Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86
Wed, 26 Jun 2013On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.
Ford and 'Dirty Jobs' pitchman Mike Rowe part ways [w/videos]
Thu, 20 Feb 2014Former Dirty Jobs host Mike Rowe has one less job as of today - the pitchman is no longer a pitchman for Ford, with yesterday's announcement from Rowe ending a seven-year partnership between the TV host and the Blue Oval.
Rowe made the announcement to political pundit Glenn Beck, saying the two are "going in different directions" and wishing Ford "every possibly success that any car company could ever have," according to The Detroit News. Rowe and Ford got together in 2005, right around the time the 51-year-old came to prominence as the host of Dirty Jobs and the narrator for Deadliest Catch, two of the Discovery Channel's most popular shows.
Take a look below for a few video snippets of Rowe's tenure at Ford.
Ford rethinking vehicle launch strategy
Tue, 07 May 2013With a new boss at the helm, Ford is looking at new ways to improve its vehicle launches in North America to prevent recent issues that have popped up with models like the Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and Ford Fusion. Speaking with Automotive News, Ford's new president of the Americas, Joe Hinrichs, revealed a few ways the automaker plans to avoid early build issues such as the engine fires on certain 2013 Escape and Fusion models and months-long delays for customers to receive their MKZs.
It sounds like the root of the problems may have been Ford's relationship with suppliers compounded by the fact that the product surge came on the heels of the recent industry-crippling recession, and in the AN article, Hinrichs says improvements are being made to reduce problems during the launch of new or redesigned models. Three such improvements that were implemented during the first quarter of this year including more rigorous quality comparisons, better use of computer technology to catch major problems sooner and hiring engineers to work closer with suppliers.
