You are looking at a restored 1961 Ford Falcon 2 door sedan.  This car has been mechanically and costmetically restored by the owner.  The owner is a very good friend of mine, I am helping him sell it, he has no computer skills.  He has owned this car for almost 40 years, he bought it when he was 15, it was his first car.  Over the years, it has been built into an incredible muscle car.  It looks, runs, and drives mint!  Here is a list of what has been done to the car:

Engine:

302 Windsor engine, completely re-built by local machine shop, bored .30 over to 306 cubic inches.  Crankshaft was cut, chamfered, polished, and rotating assembly was fully ballanced!  TRW forged pistons, 10:1 compression ratio, runs on pump gas.  Chrome moly rings,  Lunati hydraulic cam and lifters, High volume oil pump, Adjustable rockers, 351 Windsor heads, completely re-built, ported and polished, three angle valve job, Manley valves, screw in studs with guide plates, hardened push rods, double roller timing chain.  Edelbrock Torquer intake manifold, 600 Holley dual feed, double pumper, Mallory ignition, Accell electronic distributor, 351 exhaust manifolds (jet hot coated), custom dual exhaust with turbo mufflers.  Everything on the engine is proffesionally powdercoated, and it looks awesome.  You could eat off of this motor.  The motor has about 5000 miles on it since it was re-built and installed in the car.  It runs awesome!

Drivetrain:

4 speed manual transmission, completely rebuilt, all steel bellhousing, 11 1/2" high performance clutch and flywheel, completely re-built 3:55 ratio, limited slip rear axle.

Misc:

Converted to 1 wire chrome alternator, battery was re-located to trunk, has new 3 core heavy duty radiator with electric fans, new Edelbrock aluminum water pump, has dual master cylinder with all new re-built drum brakes front and rear.  Drive shaft has high performance u-joints and was speed ballanced.  All 4 tires are new, high performance radials.

Suspension:

Completely re-done with all new ball joints, all new control arm bushings, heavy duty coil springs, heavy duty leaf springs, all new shocks!

Interior:

The owner spent over $5000 and had the interior completely re-finished by Top Stitch Upholstery Inc. They did all new seats, door panels, kick panels, carpets, headliner, everything. The dash board and the tops of the doors were all re-painted in basecoat clearcoat, and look better than new.  The floor pans were coated in bedliner spray, and look perfect under the carpets.

Body:

The owner of this car owns a body shop and has been painting cars since he was a teenager.  This car was stripped down to bare metal and completely re-finished.  The body is laser straight, and looks better than new.  The paint is DuPont basecoat/ clearcoat and it looks awesome.  The color is called Corinthian White.  I could not find one flaw in it, and it shines like new.  It has color coded bumpers, and grille.  The tail lights, door handles, emblems, were powdercoated also. 

 

This car is a turn-key muscle car that is ready for somone to drive and enjoy.  I drove it myself, and it runs and drives amazing.  It rides great, and has plenty of power for such a light car.  It is lots of fun!  It hits the road great, and sounds good too.  It's not too loud with the turbo mufflers, but it has a nice rumble!  It needs nothing!  I would be happy to show anyone the car, please e-mail me and we will set it up.

Ford Transit Skyliner Concept does discreet luxury in NYC

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

There's something to be said for luxed-out vans. They're cool, and as a means of getting chauffeured about, they're extremely comfortable and far more low key than your typical executive luxury sedan. For the 2014 New York Auto Show, Galpin Auto Sports has shown the potential of the new-for-the-US Ford Transit as an ultra-luxurious people hauler.
The Transit Skyliner Concept, which we previewed last week, sports four finely crafted captain's buckets that can be moved into different formations based on need. Want to watch a movie? The seats can be swung around to face a 52-inch screen. Riding along with some business associates? A table can be popped up. There's even a configuration for tailgating.
The materials are, unsurprisingly, pretty plush. The leather seats and wood floors (yes, wood floors in a van) look great, while the trunk and its customized luggage are a nice touch, as well.

Ford Focus 1.0-liter Ecoboost to only get manual trans in US

Sun, 23 Feb 2014

Photos 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.

2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid

Thu, 02 May 2013

No Prius Killer
As much as we enthusiasts like to rail on the lowly Toyota Prius as the harbinger of death for all we hold dear, there's no denying the machine's absolute and interminable grip on the hybrid hatchback market in the United States. Toyota has so thoroughly sunk its teeth into the segment that you can clearly hear the automaker's incisors clacking against one another with the conclusion of each financial quarter. And there's little wonder why. Buyers can plop down less than $25,000 and have a runabout that can return up to an estimated 51 miles per gallon in the city, leaving every other entry on the market with precious little gristle to gnaw on.
Enter the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid. With its claimed 47 mpg combined, the funky little hatch from Europe already falls behind the 48 mpg city offered by the Prius, but that marginal sacrifice in fuel economy could be a small price to pay for buyers who want a credible alternative to the stalwart Toyota. Unfortunately, like the Fusion Hybrid, the C-Max Hybrid had trouble even approaching its Environmental Protection Agency estimates during our time with the car.
