I have a 1963 Ford Falcon up for auction, the vehicle was purchased in 1963 in Gainesville, GA. The original owner had it up until he died 10 years ago, and then his family kept the car around till they decided to sell it in July of 2012. We purchase the vehicle with the intentions of making a daily driver. Unfortunately with the way my business is going we do not have time to work on it anymore because we are so busy and every time we bring in a new car this falcon gets put further back in line to be worked on.

This is how far we have made it with the car; we did a complete tune-up on the car including cap, rotor, plugs, wires, fuel filter, oil, filter and fluids changed, and rebuilt the carb. the original fuel pump was not working so we rebuilt it and still could not get the pump to pump enough fuel to run correctly. We bought a electric fuel pump and the car ran fine, we drove it around the parking lot a few times to get the brakes to unlock and if we had had enough time that probably could have been worked out. The new fuel pump needs to be wired to the key switch because as of now it is wired to the battery. The car has manual drum brakes all the way around it and are typical of sitting are a little seized up and would need to have some work done on them either replacing or cleaned up and adjusted. While you had them off I would replace or pack the wheel bearings because I'm not sure when the last time they were done. The clutch and transmission seems to shift and work properly. The car is still set up with a three speed on the column. Rear end also seems to be in good working order in the little bit it was driven. While the vehicle was in the shop it slipped off the jack and either punctured the radiator or punctured the lower radiator hose. Not sure though about the radiator we have not looked it over.

The body is in over all good shape. the original owner was involved in an accident in the left rear quarter and it was fixed a long time ago. over the years the body filler got some water behind it and separated the filler from the metal, causing some rust. all of the body filler has been removed and either needs a lower quarter section welded in or someone that knows how to do body work. over all the body is in good shape. The left front fender was applied with aircraft stripper to determine paint thickness and to determine the amount of work to be preformed by our guys in the shop. the floor pans and trunk pan are solid. this is a GA car and has been local its whole life and mostly parked in a garage. the doors open and shut nice, and the dash is nice. its missing the carpet. the seats are all there and in good shape except for someone spraying fabric dye on them and not doing a good job.

Please feel free to come take a look at the car or call for any other information. The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early do to local sale. Car does not have a title and is not required here in GA, will come with bill of sale form from the State Of Georgia.

Uber releases fleet of self-driving vehicles to select few in Pittsburgh

Wed, Sep 14 2016

Starting today, a select group of Uber users in Pittsburgh, PA will have the ability to request a self-driving vehicle. If a self-driving vehicle is in the area, Uber will send it, as well as a safety driver, to drive loyal customers to their destination. The announcement to give customers the opportunity to get a ride in one of Uber's self-driving vehicles comes roughly a year and a half after the company set up its Advanced Technologies Center in the city. On Tuesday, the company offered a few members of the press the opportunity to ride in one of the company's self-driving cars. The fleet, despite Uber's collaboration with Volvo, was comprised of 14 Ford Fusions equipped with a host of self-driving technology, reports TechCrunch. Uber is giving away free rides as a way to obtain real-world testing, which is crucial for self-driving technology. Recently, nuTonomoy beat Uber to the punch by launching the world's first autonomous taxis in Singapore. While the choice to release its self-driving cars in Pittsburgh mainly comes down to the fact that its ATC is located there, the city faces four seasons and its difficult streets that are comprised of bridges, railroad lines, and an irregular grid layout will prove to be a challenge for the autonomous cars. Since the self-driving vehicles are still being tested, the cars will come with two full-time Uber employees. One employee will loosely grasp the car's steering wheel, ready to take over if something goes awry, while the other will monitor the computer's software. As TechCrunch points out, Uber's autonomous vehicles drove in a similar manner to a regular driver. It obeyed traffic laws, mimicked a driver by coming to stops gently and at other times abruptly, as well as driving slightly into another lane to dodge a poorly-parked vehicle, reports TechCrunch. There's no word on whether regular Uber customers will get a ride in one of the company's Fusions or one of the Volvo's that its working on. Automakers and companies alike have been in a race to put autonomous vehicles on the road. Tesla recently updated its Autopilot system, Apple laid off dozens of employees to reboot its self-driving car project, and Google is working giving its autonomous vehicle the ability to detect emergency vehicles. While this is a large step for Uber, vehicles with autonomous capabilities still have a long way to go.

2015 Ford Mustang GT Line-Lock Burnout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

In this brief Short Cut, Autoblog's Steven Ewing demonstrates Line-Lock on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. Accessed through an on-screen performance menu, the feature temporarily locks the front brakes to help you heat up the rear tires for better traction, as you would for drag racing. The result? A 15-second smokescreen.

This 93-car Iowa auction is like a Big 3 classic muscle museum

Tue, Aug 27 2019

Bill "Coyote" Johnson has been buying cars since high school and has amassed a collection totaling 113 vehicles, according to NBC 6 News. But time has changed his motivations and priorities, and he's decided to auction 93 of those cars, many of which are classic muscle from Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, Plymouth and Pontiac. The megasale will take place Sept. 14, 2019, in Red Oak, Iowa, at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds. A 1969 Plymouth Road Runner infected Coyote with a love for Detroit muscle when he was just a teenager, and his desire quickly turned into an obsession. He's spent the past 40 years finding, buying and working on a variety of makes and models. Unlike some collectors, Coyote didn't discriminate against certain brands and has rides from each of the Big 3 automakers. Included in the auction are Camaros, Satellites, Super Bees, Chargers, Challengers, Barracudas, Coronets, GTOs, Mustangs, Cutlasses and others. Possibly the most intriguing aspect of the auction is that all of these cars will be sold as-is with no reserve. Many of them will need work, depending on quality standards, but this seems like a golden opportunity to find a classic car without leaving a bank account in shambles.  The auctions are open for bidding online now, and the full auction will take place on September 14. Check out the full listings and bid at VanDerBrink Auctions.
