1962 Ford Falcon 2 Door, Daily Driver on 2040-cars
Garden Grove, California, United States
1962 Ford Falcon, 2 door, straight 6, 3 on the tree (manual Transmission with the shifter on the column, a true daily driver). This car is in really good shape for its age.
Reply to this posting with any questions or if you want to see it. The car is not restored and is not perfect however as far as 1962 falcons go this one is complete, rust free, super reliable, and fun to drive. See pictures as it does have a tear on the front seat, the shifter has a soft spring in second ( not a transmission issue it is in the column), and the car could use a paint job as it is a flat black and it looks like it was done in a garage not a paint booth, the rubber around the car is cracking (trunk, door seals, window felts, etc. not bushings or ball joints) however it is in very great mechanical shape for a 50+ year old car (runs and drives great) and is very complete. The car has not been cut up or modified and is rust free it has the original radio, there is an aftermarket cd/radio installed in the glove box. The Cars was manufactured in 1961 for the 1962 model year and was built in Los Angeles, CA. I think this car has spent it's whole life in southern California as it has no rust and the odometer reads 57xxx (not sure how accurate the odometer is though). The engine was rebuilt less than 20k miles ago and was converted from a generator to alternator. also has new tires (less than 5,000 miles ago), new battery, 80% left on brakes. This car drives straight and has no odd noises, shakes, or noises, it also gets about 24MPG. |

2015 Ford Mustang production to begin on July 14? Not quite, says Ford
Thu, 10 Jul 2014Mustang6g.com believes that it has unlocked start date for 2015 Ford Mustang production citing a Ford dealer communiqué. According to the report, job one on the 2015 hardtop will allegedly start in just a few days, on July 14, although units that are known as "OK to Buy" won't enter production until September 9. The cars built between those dates are most likely final pre-production cars for the executive test fleet, and will likely include the cars we'll be driving at the media launch.
Sun worshippers, meanwhile, would seem to have a longer wait. Job one on the droptop supposedly isn't slated to start until September 14, with production models starting on October 27. As is the case with the hardtop, these final pre-pros are for the execs and media to test, while actual dealer orders will come from vehicles made after the October date.
After speaking to Ford, though, we wouldn't put a great deal of stock in those dates as reported. We reached out to Said Deep, Ford's North American Product Communications Manager.
Oprah at it again, gives car away on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Sat, 17 Aug 2013Oprah Winfrey loves giving away cars. Not only has she given Pontiac G6 sedans and Volkswagen Beetle retro-mobiles to everyone in the audience of her past show, but the other night on Jimmy Kimmel Live! she gave another car away to one lucky audience member, while yelling her now-famous line: "You get a car!"
Although the acting of Oprah and Jimmy Kimmel was obviously staged for this giveaway, the reaction from the woman in the audience was genuine shock as she found out that she had just won a new Ford Fusion Energi. Congrats!
Not to take away from what Oprah and Jimmy pulled off, but our cynical sides have to wonder if there isn't more than just a little coincidence that this giveaway took place on the same day that Ford announced a fuel economy reduction for the C-Max hybrid. You be the judge... Scroll down to watch the short clip from the episode.
What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
