What you're bidding on is probably the 'cutest' car I own, yet unfortunately the most expendable. 


This 62 Falcon is the perfect starter-car for jr. car guys, or someone who just loves the body style and likes cruising with the six cylinder fuel economy.

Sheetmetal/Structure
The shock towers are solid - which is where all Ford guys check first. The front clip is solid. Floors have some superficial holes that have been cut out, and I will weld them in prior to anyone inspecting or purchasing car. Everything structural is sound. Floor is otherwise pretty solid. There's some bubbling on the bottoms of the quarters. Deck lid, trunk area, gas tank, etc, are all in good condition. 

Exterior
Body is semi-straight and semi-solid. The passenger door has a crease on the edge and the paint is doing the normal lacquer bubble all over the car. It appears to be grabber blue with the original blue peaking through on the deck lid. Grille is complete, no damage. Bumpers have some pitting, but still shine up some. 

Glass is all there, some clouding on the back window. 

Interior is a... well, I've straightened it out from the mess. The back seat is out of a later falcon, but it fits, and the front buckets look like minivan seats. It has an automatic shifter out of a Granada or Fox body. Someone tried to recover the door panels, but they're fairly straight and not stained or scuzzy. Needs headliner for sure. Also, I've got a brand new ACC rubber floor mat (carpet delete) and matching black wal-mart seat covers to match .


Mechanically - ran great when before parked. brakes are new, previous owner ran new lines, later 6 cylinder has electric ignition, idles smooth. Carb needs rebuilt and I will throw a kit in it before it leaves. Oh, I bought two new tires for it in 2008 before I parked it. they'd have like 7 miles on them. 

Like I said, it's no show car, but it's an easy project, no damage anywhere . Just tune it up and go.

NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.

Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.

Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.
