This is a 1962 Ford Falcon. The floor boards, quarters,
doors, trunk all show no signs of rust
holes or patching. The paint is driver quality with some dings, blemishes and
scratches. The paint is 7 years old, it is base coat clear and is very shiny.
The hood, doors and trunk all line up and shut properly. The rear wheel well
lips have been flattened to accommodate the Ford 8” rear and the wider tires
but they are solid and not cut just flattened. The frame rails have been tied together for a higher
horsepower engine The glass is tinted and all in good condition. The interior
was completely redone and is in good condition. It is dark leather ostrich
print with plain leather gray outer covering. The headliner and door panels all
match. Engine is a rebuilt 1971 Ford 351 Windsor bored .030 with a
mild cam. Stock heads and an aluminum intake, 650 HOLLEY carb. Engine was never
dinoed. I would guess about 375 to 400
HP. This is a nice driver motor not too much power. Cam sounds great and good
on gas. Car runs cool with a 1971 Mustang radiator. Motor, trans and rear do
not drip oil. Transmission is a C4 auto with a 2000 stall. HURST Quarter
stick shifter. Rear end is a ford 8” with 279 gear for highway driving. We did
have a 355 gear in it and it was kind of low for highway traveling. All lights, turn signals, back up lights, gas guage, window winds work.
Brakes are next to new. We have just painted the wheels black and installed four new
tires, Rear -235/60/14, Front 205/70/14. We also added a ford rocker stripe and
a new set of air shocks to raise the rear 3”. That is the way the car is being
sold. In the one video from last month the car had silver wheels and sat lower so I
don’t want to confuse anyone The following is a list of what does not work SPEEDOMETER- No cable attached C4 & falcon don’t match
up. RADIO- This was a radio delete car. No antenna hole and
installed radio not wired EMERGENCY BRAKE- Cable from lever to first connection is
missing. But the cable from there to the drums is there and works HEATER- The core is missing but the blower motor works on
high and low. It just need the core put in. I tried to the best of my ability to describe this car
accurately. It is a nice street rod, driver ready. If you come to pick the car up and you feel that I misrepresented
the car, YOU DON’T HAVE TO TAKE IT! |

GM also sheds parts from its pickups to boost payload ratings
Thu, 31 Jul 2014The row between Ford and Ram over who boasts the best-in-class tow rating for heavy duty pickups has revealed a number of things. Chief among them is a report that Ford removes items like the spare tire, jack, radio and center console from its vehicles in a bid to lower its base curb weight and therefore keep the truck's gross vehicle weight rating down.
For those that need a refresher, GVWR is the vehicle's curb weight plus its maximum payload. A lower GVWR allows Ford to station its F-450 among the so-called Class III pickups, despite the fact that internally, it has the makings of a more brutish Class IV truck.
Ford explains away these deletions, saying a customer could order their vehicle in such a manner. It has also come to light that Ford is not the only automaker to engage in such practices.
NHTSA closes Ford F-150 EcoBoost acceleration probe
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Typically when we report on the findings of an investigation from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, it's because the government body has discovered a safety issue and prescribed a recall. In this case, however, NHTSA has closed an investigation into a reported performance deficit without ever getting to the recall stage.
The issue revolves around the Ford F-150 - specifically those equipped with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine - of which some 360,000 were built in the 2011, 2012 and 2013 model years. After receiving an initial 95 complaints, NHTSA opened an investigation last May - almost a year ago - into the reported issue of reduced engine power under hard acceleration. The agency has since received a total of 525 such complaints, and Ford itself reported receiving over 4,000.
Together, NHTSA and Ford determined that the problem resulted from cylinders misfiring, an issue itself stemming from water getting into the charge air cooler (CAC) mated to the turbochargers. In particularly humid or rainy conditions, water was found to get into the CAC, causing some of the cylinders to misfire, which in turn triggered the ECU to disable those cylinders in order to protect the catalytic converter from damage.
Ring Brothers shows 1965-66 Mustang fastback carbon fiber body
Thu, 07 Nov 2013We covered one of Ring Brothers' more extreme SEMA builds yesterday, the De Tomaso Pantera-based ADRNLN, but if that well-executed but over-the-top Italian-American exotic is too much for you, then perhaps this Ring Brothers 1965 Ford Mustang fastback with a carbon-fiber body suits your tastes better.
What the performance-parts manufacturer is showcasing with the Mustang is the carbon-fiber body itself, which is fashioned around the 1965-66 fastback. It can be bought from the company and bonded to the skin and unibody as a do-it-yourself project, or you can take your Mustang to Ring Brothers and have the body installed there. The fenders, doors and quarter panels are two-inches wider than stock, and Ring Brothers offers a custom widebody chassis to those who want the complete package.
The show car looks sharp in person lowered on HRE wheels, and we appreciate the bare front end so we can see the supercharged V8 and front coilover suspension, though the details on those performance upgrades are slim. Also note the custom independent rear suspension setup at the rear.
