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 Police Interceptors win acceleration war against Dodge, Chevy

Thu, 17 Oct 2013

Just last month, Ford announced its first-ever non-pursuit-rated version of the Police Interceptor sedan for agencies looking to maximize fuel economy, but that doesn't mean that Ford is giving up on chasing down the bad guys. While the Dodge Charger can lay claim to the fastest lap time at the Grattan Raceway test facility held by the Michigan State Police, the results are now in for the Police Vehicle Evaluation acceleration tests. And Ford's Police Interceptor duo (sedan and utility) came out on top.
In the acceleration tests, Ford says that the Taurus-based PI Sedan with the newly available 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 was the quickest among prospective police cars in both 0-60 and 0-100 mile per hour times. The sedan posted a 0-60 time of 5.66 seconds with all-wheel drive and 5.71 seconds with front-wheel drive, besting V8-powered competitors like the Chevy Caprice and Dodge Charger by more than 0.3 seconds. These rivals close the gap on the AWD sedan in the 0-100 test with the Ford taking 13.5 seconds compared to the Chevy's time of 14.35 and the Dodge's time of 14.7.
As for utility vehicles, the Explorer-based PI Utility, which accounts for 60 percent of Ford's police vehicle sales, essentially went head-to-head with the V8-powered Chevy Tahoe with similar results. Equipped with the new EcoBoost engine option, this big SUV hit 60 mph in just 6.28 seconds and 100 mph in 15.51 seconds compared to times of 8.22 seconds and 21.95 seconds, respectively, for the Tahoe. Other important tests in the PVE include braking and top speed, but while no automakers have stepped up to boast about their numbers in either of these categories, Ford's images show that the V8 Caprice had the highest top speed of the cars at 155 mph while the Tahoe's 139-mph speed made it the fastest utility vehicle.

Ford Focus ST, Fiesta ST buyers to get free Octane Academy driving school

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

The Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST have created plenty of excitement in the sport compact segment, and Ford is looking to make sure that owners are driving and enjoying their cars to the best of their abilities. As an added bonus for buying one of these sporty hatchbacks, Ford will provide a complimentary ST Octane Academy session to be held at the Miller Motorsports Park in Utah.
Attendees will be responsible for travel and lodging, but Ford will provide the driving school free of charge. Included in this two-day trip, ST owners will get class instruction and driving instruction in prepped Focus ST and Fiesta ST models on the track and autocross course. Some karting action will also be involved as will a tour of Ken Block's Hoonigan Racing headquarters located nearby. If this doesn't sound like enough fun, there is also an optional day of activities that includes some more track time in a Mustang GT and off-road instruction in an F-150 SVT Raptor.
Ford told us that those who have already purchased a Focus ST or Fiesta ST will still be able to attend the performance driving school, but the press release, which is posted below, makes it sound like it applies to original owners only. Ford has yet to announce its schedule for the ST Octane Academy or prices for additional activities or guests.

Ford doubling 1.0L EcoBoost engine production

Fri, 06 Sep 2013

Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine hasn't been around that long, but it sounds like the engine is getting to be fairly popular in the automaker's global car lineup. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford has add a second shift that will allow its German engine plant to double daily output from 500 engines to 1,000.
The increased capacity is part of a plan to sell more than 300,000 vehicles a year with this engine in Europe by 2015. Europe is currently the only market where the smallest of the EcoBoost engines is offered (including in the Focus pictured above), but US-spec Fiesta models will be getting this mill for 2014.
Three-cylinder engines are expected to continue to grow in popularity in coming years with the report indicating that global production of these engines will double by 2018 to 9.8 million units. General Motors, BMW and Mitsubishi are all expected to introduce three-cylinder engines in the near term, as well.
