I purchased this 1962 Ford Falcon Futura from the original owner four years ago.  She gave me the sales receipt from Don Sanderson Ford, here in AZ and I will include it with the car.  I have put a lot of time and money into the car and know I will not get it back.  I would like someone else to enjoy it now.  There have been many modifications and I will do my best to list them all:
  • 302 out of a 91 mustang bored out to a 307. Totally stripped down cleaned etc.
  • Trickflow TFS 170 Aluminum Heads.  New rocker arms and Comp Cam.  
  • Holley 650 double pumper, new starter, HEI distributor
  • Edelbrock RPM Air Gap manifold
  • All new Painless wiring
  • Aluminum Radiator 
  • Altima Red Battery in trunk, with kill switch
  • Gas tank cleaned and flushed, brand new lines 
  • Disc Brakes up front, Drums in rear.  All new lines and hoses.
  • Weld Drag lites and BFG radials
  • V8 steering conversion done (pitman arm, idler arm, center link, upper and lower control arms replaced from a 65 v8 mustang
  • Ford 9" rear end.  Completely disassembled and everything new.  It is a 3.50 POSI.
  • New drive shaft 
  • Rebuilt C4 transmission with a B&M Shifter. Transmission Cooler.
  • Doug Thorley Tri Y Ceramic Long Tube Headers, with a very custom Magnaflow Dual Exhaust that sounds incredible
  • Freshly painted inside and out.  New headliner, door and kick panels, carpet, seals, and cat whiskers. I did not do the seal around the front triangle window.  It does show some wear.
  • The upholstery was done when I first stared the car.  The back seat looks amazing, but the fronts are not show quality.  
  • All windows and Chrome are on the car.  The chrome is original, looks very nice, but is not show quality.  
I am sure I am forgetting something, but please take a look at the pictures and ask questions before bidding.  Thank you.

Ford hiring 800 more salaried workers than originally expected

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Ford is on a roll this year, with excellent quarterly earnings and better-than-expected vehicle sales leading to 800 more job opportunities with the Blue Oval. In January, Ford announced that it wanted to hire 2,200 salaried employees, but, since then, that figure has been revised to 3,000, representing a 36-percent increase over original projections. About 1,500 of those jobs remain, 80 percent of which are technical professional positions.
"Engineers and technical professionals are in as much demand as our cars, trucks and SUVs," says Felicia Fields, Ford Group Vice President for Human Resources. Helping to spur this job growth are increasing market share on both the West and East Coast and robust demand for the Ford Escape and F-150.
To find job candidates, Ford is reaching out to them via Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, in addition to the company's corporate career site. The Blue Oval is also ramping up its presence on college campuses.

Ford reports $3B profit in Q4, $6.9B for the year

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

Good news out of Dearborn today, as Ford announced $3 billion in profit for the last quarter of 2013, a 90-percent increase over the same period of 2012. Net income for all of last year, meanwhile, jumped to $7.2 billion from $5.7 billion in 2012, while pre-tax profits sat at a decade-topping $6.9 billion for all of 2013.
The results of the substantial profit increases are bigger profit-sharing checks for UAW employees. How big? A record $8,800 on average for 47,000 UAW workers, making 2013 the biggest year for profit sharing in Ford history. In total, $414 million will be paid as part of the profit-sharing scheme.
Now, it should be pointed out that a fair portion of Ford's Q4 profits were due to tax benefits, totaling $2.1 billion, according to Automotive News. Total profits would have also been higher, had there not been a significant recall on the Escape, as well as plant issues in South America.

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.
