1963 1/2 Ford Falcon Futura. Convertible. Barn Find. Original. Patina. on 2040-cars
Brandon, Mississippi, United States
1963 1/2 Ford Falcon Futura convertible. Car is showing 95,000 miles. I do not have a title.. Bill of sale only. In Mississippi, in 1964, this car did not have to have a tilt for the original owner. To register it now I would have to have it bonded. I can get a clear title but it will cost aprox $200.00. This is a literal "barn find". I pulled it out of the barn that it had been setting in since the late 1980's. The guy that I bought it from bought it as a project. He removed the interior, replaced the gas tank and stopped. I had the brakes, master cylinder and lines redone. I had the carb cleaned and adjusted. I put new rubber on the original rims. And now its for sale. It will crank. It shifts out smoothly. It stops very well. Very original. Car has very little rust, the only spot I found was in the back passenger side under the rear seat. No carpet. gauges work. Has most of the trim. Convertible top works very well, smooth up and down. Check out the pictures. It is what it is. I've got a few people very interested in it.... I hope they are watching the auction. Reserve is $5000.00. NO buy it now. Feel free to email with questions. Thank you and good luck. |

Ford recalls 1.9m cars and crossovers for defective airbags
Wed, Jun 1 2016The Basics: Ford is recalling a total of 1,898,728 vehicles to replace defective Takata front passenger-side airbags. This includes the 2007-2010 Ford Edge, 2006-2011 Ford Fusion, 2005-2011 Ford Mustang, 2007-2011 Ford Ranger, 2007-2010 Lincoln MKX and 2006-2011 Lincoln MKZ, Zephyr and Mercury Milan vehicles built in North America. The Problem: The defective airbags have been linked to ruptures that can send metal fragments at the passenger, due to deteriorating propellant. Injuries/Deaths: Ford claims it's not aware of any injuries due to the problem, but rupturing Takata airbags have been linked to a series of serious injuries and deaths. The Fix: Dealers will replace the passenger-side frontal airbag at no charge to the customer. If you own one: Look out for a letter from the manufacturer to arrange service at your local dealer. If you'd like to check if your vehicle is affected, click on the safety recalls link on Ford.com and enter your VIN. Related Video:
Ford bumped by Amazon in best-perceived brand list
Mon, 20 Jan 2014Back in July, a mid-year study from YouGov found Ford to have higher brand perception than any other company in the US. While Ford failed to top the year-end study, it still has plenty to brag about. The final BrandIndex report shows that online retail giant Amazon edged out Ford for the top ranking, while Subway, the History Channel and Lowe's rounded out the top five spots.
For Ford, it's still an improvement from sixth place in the 2012 study, and, more importantly, it dominated other automakers in terms of brand perception with a clear advantage over Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Volkswagen. To determine how well - or not so well - a brand is perceived, YouGov uses a Buzz score that asks respondents whether they've "heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth" and whether it was positive or negative. While it isn't clear how many respondents were included, YouGov does point out that Ford had a strong presence in social media, advertising and newsworthy toward the end of the year.

Ford Australia pulls the ol' talking car prank
Mon, 07 Apr 2014Siri from Apple has proven that being able to talk to your technology doesn't always work perfectly. But what if it could eventually go far enough to give a personality to inanimate objects like our cars? Ford took just this path to comedic effect by playing a prank on many unsuspecting Australians, in a new commercial for its EcoSport compact crossover.
The Aussies seem very nonchalant about having a random parked car talk to them, and they seem surprisingly game when it asks them to get in, call a celebrity and tell a joke. (We're guessing there are some hilarious outtakes, too.) Scroll down to watch some folks from Down Under have a conversation with Ford's CUV.
