1963 ford falcon roadster rat rod project

Let me start out by saying this is not my car. I am listing it for a friend of mine that doesn’t have a computer so any and all questions should be directed to him (roger: phone #231-865-7448)

DESCRIPTION: 1963 ford falcon roadster( no top)RAT ROD PROJECT CAR with a 351w out of a 1976 cougar (mileage unknown) and it is backed by a c-4 fmx 3-speed automatic It has a 5 lug ford 8” rear end w/3:00 open gears and a mustang II 5 lug front end with manual front disk brakes. Now this car was born a convertible back 50 years ago and the guy that Roger bought it from had used it for a parts car for the completion of his other convertible so when Roger got it most of the parts were gone but being the visionary guy that he is he built the car that you now see.

Now when Roger bought this car it was the body only. He installed a rear end out of a maverick with the 4-link and the mustang II front end so he could get it sitting on all fours again. He reinforced the original frame with 1 1/2 x 2 1/2 tubing to take the added torque of the 351(motor runs good with no noises or smoke) and put new sheet metal on the floors to make it solid again. He then went all the way thru the brake system and replaced everything to do with the brakes so it is all new from the master cylinder and the front rotors to all the lines to the rear drums everything is new. Then he installed the rear seat out of a dodge caravan and the front buckets came from a fox body mustang. The wheels are key stone classics and the tires are fair. He put in a new front windshield, mirrors,carpet, and made the console and door panels and side panels

He also put in a plastic fuel cell and re-wired the car so all the lights are in working order (but the new gauges still need to be installed and wired)

Included in the sale but not installed is the door glass (the driver’s side is cracked), both side rear windows are in the car and work great. It also includes (if you want to put it back to a convertible) some top bows and the header panel but it needs repaired on the ends do too rust and the windshield wiper motor. He also has 2 quarts of the white paint to go with it and some other parts (pictured but not the steering wheel pictured) that go too. Like I said this is a RAT ROD PROJECT CAR with no warranties or guaranties it has only been lot driven. But if your interested give Roger a call at 231-865-7448 and he can answer any questions about this build.

THIS CAR HAS ONLY BEEN LOT DRIVEN IT HAS NEVER BEEN ON THE ROAD SINCE COMPLETION!!! SO USE YOUR BEST JUDGMENT AND BID ACCORDINGLY.

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

Here at Autoblog, we've officially stamped December 5, 2013, as Ford Mustang Day. Sure, the sixth-generation Pony Car started leaking out onto the web days ago, but all of the official, non-embargoed hotness has come out today. And man, there's been a lot.
In terms of new car debuts, this is a really big one - not unlike all of the Corvette madness that kicked off the 2013 automotive season. So to make sure you haven't missed anything, here's a wrap-up of everything you need to know about the 2015 Ford Mustang.

Ford, Renault have surprises in store for Le Mans

Tue, Jun 9 2015

All those prototype and GT racers won't be the only attraction catching our eye at the 24 Hours of Le Mans this weekend. Two major automakers have also confirmed that they've got new metal to unveil. And while they're not saying exactly what they'll be, we've got some pretty good ideas. First up is Ford, which has announced a "major Ford Performance news announcement" on Friday. Chairman Bill Ford, CEO Mark Fields, and product development chief Raj Nair will be on hand for the announcement set to take place on Friday at 10:00 AM Eastern. The Blue Oval isn't saying just what it has in store, but the widespread speculation has been that it will present a racing version of the new Ford GT at Le Mans a good half century since the original GT40 raced there. Meanwhile, Renault has announced that it is marking the 60th anniversary of the Alpine marque at Le Mans this Saturday. The French automaker has been working on reviving the dormant marque, and looks poised to finally reveal its new sports car at its iconic home endurance race this weekend. Tipped to be called the Alpine AS1, the new sports car will bring the marque back out of retirement in a more real way than the ELMS-winning LMP2 prototype ever could. Expect it to be based on the mid-engined chassis underpinning the Renault RS 01 spec racer, but built for the road.

Entry-level F-150 now offers SuperCrew, Sport Package

Thu, 29 Aug 2013

Ford has made a few notable tweaks to the lower end of its F-150 lineup, giving customers a more affordable version of the four-door SuperCrew body style. The popular SuperCrew could previously only be had on XLT models and above, but Ford has announced that 2014 F-150s with the base STX trim can get the more versatile body.
The STX SuperCrew brings the price of a four-door F-150 down from $34,525 to $33,145. Like the XLT SuperCrew, the STX will be available with the choice of a 5.5- or 6.5-foot bed, while a 5.0-liter V8 can replace the base 3.7-liter V6 for $4,425. Ford has not released pricing on the different bed lengths yet, but opting for the 6.5-foot bed on the XLT raises the price $1,240 and forces buyers into the 5.0-liter V8. We'd expect a similar arrangement on the STX.
The other big news for fans of affordable pickups is the addition of an STX Sport Package on the base-level truck. It adds 20-inch wheels, black exterior accents, black-and-gray cloth seats and decals on the truck's box. The Sport Package is available on all three of the STX's body styles, with Ford listing the price as $980 with current discounts.
