 I bought this as a project to do with my kid.  Life has changed and it is not going to get done.  It is a driver at present but it is still a project.  It sat for 7 years till I decided to let it go.  The guy I bought it from died shortly after sending it to me so there was no sending it back.  It was not as described but he was sick so I just kept it and was going to help my kid fix it right.  63 Falcon Sprint.   A real one. That is the good news. Bad news is that it has been modified.  302 Roller Motor from an HO  .  Has a mild solid roller cam.   Sounds great.  Has great low end.  Electronic distributor.  (Ford).  Starts with one half turn of the crank.  T-5 five speed with after market shifter.  Growls some in 3rd gear but shifts great.  Has a scattershield.  Clutch unknown.  No chatter.  No slip.  Shorty headers.  Flowmasters  (quiet must be Deltaflows). 9 " rear.  31 spline axles.  Detroit Locker.  Traction Bars.  They work.  This thing will do a burn out till next Tuesday without much effort.  Griffin radiator, aluminum.  Electric fan.  Cable clutch. Brand new ignition switch.  Battery in the trunk. 

   Tires will do to move it around and do burn outs but don't go too far.  I have done the safety stuff already.  It has rebuilt alternator, new regulator,  all wiring fixed for the charging circuit and it makes 14.1 volts.  Fuel lines are replaced so no fuel leaks.    It has a new Holley 670 street Avenger.  Works great.  Holley red pump.  Pressure regulator.  7 psi. 
  Interior is very tired.  Has some kind of after market buckets in the front. Car looks orange in the interior pics because I used the flash. It really is red. Has the Sprint console.  After market gauges in the dash actually work. 

  I will answer any questions the best I can.  I did not get too deep into this so some things I don't know.  It really does run like a champ and it has good oil pressure, 70 psi.  And I have not been able to make it run over 180 degrees. 

  We are busy racing cars and I have 2 other "whole car projects" so this one is not going to get done by me. Someone find it a home!!  Good basics are here.  Ask questions before you buy.  I will tell you everything I know.

McLaren, Koenigsegg, Toyota, Ford, Dodge and Corvette Lego kits announced for 2021

Tue, May 4 2021

Lego has announced a slew of car-themed sets for 2021. The six kits comprise nine vehicles and fall under the brick pusher's Speed Champion line of official OEM-licensed kits. News of their arrival comes from German toy retailer JB Spielwaren's pre-order listings, which show three single-car sets and three dual-car sets of matched marques. Starting with the McLaren Elva roadster, the kit consists of 263 pieces and is finished in blue. It seems to have a difficult time capturing the curves of the real-life Elva, but there's only so much you can do with a bunch of plastic blocks. Lego has made several other McLaren kits before, including the Senna, 720S, and a more advanced Senna GTR for the Technics line. Next up is the Koenigsegg Jesko, made up of 280 pieces and finished in white. Though the real-life Jesko is still curvy, this kit does a better job of replicating its aggressive maw, vents and cantilevered rear wing. Rounding out the single-car sets is the 299-piece Toyota GR Supra in yellow. This marks the first time Toyota has lent their license to Lego. Again, it struggles a bit to represent the curvy Supra, relying on printed details like logos and headlights to identify. On the other hand, the Chevrolet two-car does a stupendous job with the 1968 Corvette. The C3 is instantly recognizable as such. The C8-R race car it's paired with suffers from the same issues as some of the previous cars, though. The set contains 512 pieces, and funnily enough the C8 driver has short hair while the C3 driver sports a period-correct wavy mane. The next set is a 627-piece Mopar-themed pair, including a purple (Plum Crazy?) 1970 Dodge Challenger T/A and an SRT top fuel dragster. The race car is spot on, but the Challenger was probably tough to make given the width restrictions. It looks a couple of pegs too narrow compared to the wide proportions of the real deal. Last but not least, the Ford set contains a Bronco R and Ford GT Heritage Edition. Consisting of 660 pieces, the set does an excellent job of representing both cars. The GT looks faithful in its Gulf livery, and the Bronco R looks more like a real Bronco than the actual Bronco R race truck. All in all, it's always fun to see more Lego sets with real cars, and we're glad to see more manufacturers added to the roster. The single-car sets are recommended for ages 7 and up, while the double-car sets have an 8 years and up rating. Price in U.S.

Ford S-Max Concept proves minivans aren't always minivans [w/video]

Tue, 10 Sep 2013

Ford's latest don't-call-it-a-minivan is called the S-Max Concept, and it's a looker. As you can see, the conceptual overgrown hatch makes good use of Ford's latest design language, especially at the very front of the S-Max, which bears a striking resemblance to production models that include the Focus, C-Max and Fusion.
Powering the S-Max Concept is a 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine, and while Ford doesn't actually list power figures for the concept, previous estimates put the mill at 133 kW of power (about 178 horsepower) and 240 Nm of torque (about 177 pound-feet). Inside, there's room for seven passengers and at least some of their luggage.
As you'd expect, the S-Max is loaded up with all of Ford's latest infotainment technology, including Sync and MyFordTouch. More interestingly, there are also onboard heart and blood glucose monitors that we doubt will be seeing the light of production anytime soon. On that topic, don't expect to see any S-Max-shaped vehicles hitting the US market from Ford, either. Scroll down below for the press release, but not before checking out the high-res image gallery above.

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a track-day weapon with 500 hp

Mon, 17 Nov 2014



Ford promises more than 500 horsepower and a torque peak above 400 lb-ft.
The wait is finally over. After months of spy shots, rumor and innuendo, Ford has officially pulled the wraps off its new Shelby GT350. Judging by the spec sheet and the promises being made - especially that the Shelby GT350 will be "an all-day track car that's also street legal" - the wait appears to have been worth it.
