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.

2013 Ford F-150 Limited

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

The Ford F-150 received yet another new model for the 2013 model year, the Limited trim, bringing the ways you can order this country's most popular vehicle to a grand total of 10. There really is an F-150 to suit any need now, and the Limited variant slots in at the very top of the range, above the already pampering Platinum model.
While normally I would admit that I'm the least-appropriate person to test a pickup, the fact that this particular trim places a much higher premium on luxury than anything with a bed and Blue Oval badge before it means that I don't need the workman chops of a skilled tradesman to judge how well this truck meets its true aim.

Ford of Europe celebrates Mondeo's 20th anniversary

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Ford's European operations are celebrating a milestone of sorts as the Mondeo, the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter D-segment sedan in the old country, celebrates its 20th anniversary. The mid-sizer, which was sold in the US for a short time as the Contour, has been a far more popular vehicle in Europe - even receiving regular praise from one Jeremy Clarkson.
Narrated by Cockney actor Ray Winstone, the video goes through the Mondeo's years and how it's evolved from 1993 to the as-yet-unreleased fifth-generation model, which is essentially the same as the Ford Fusion that's sold in America. Take a look below for the full video from Ford of Europe.

2014 Ford Transit unveiled in Chassis Cab and Cutaway versions

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

As a leader in commercial vehicles here in the US, we knew Ford wouldn't take too long to show off the chassis cab and cutaway versions of its 2014 Ford Transit van. Set to go on sale this fall, Ford already revealed the full-body version of the Transit, and now it has pulled the cover off exposed-frame models just in time to to compete against the all-new Ram Promaster.
The term "chassis cab" refers to models with a fully enclosed cabin used for box vans or rental trucks, while cutaway models leave the cabin open behind the B-pillars for a pass-through on vehicles such as Class C motorhomes or ambulances. Both will offer three wheelbase options (138, 156 and 178 inches), the choice of single or dually rear axles, and plenty of upfitter-friendly touches including a pre-wired body harness and multiple body mount locations.
The new design will also help make upfitting a little easier since the fuel filler is now built into the cab (just behind the driver's door). Those integrated fuel filler necks will serve to feed either a 3.7-liter V6, a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, or a 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel. Transit chassis cab and cutaways will wear varying Gross vehicle weight ratings from 9,000 pounds to 10,360 pounds depending on spec.
