1963 Ford Falcon Sprint Rare Car. Unique Body Style V-8 5 Speed on 2040-cars
Humble, Texas, United States
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. 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. Shipping is on you. Cash or cashiers check US banks only. |

Chris Harris checks out Ken Block's Hoonicorn '65 Mustang
Thu, Dec 4 2014Ken Block's Hoonicorn, which stars in Gymkhana Seven, might still bear a passing resemblance to a vintage 1965 Ford Mustang, but underneath the skin, the car is one of the baddest custom machines to ever do a smoky burnout on the road. The ever enthusiastic British auto journalist Chris Harris is now showing what really makes Block's new ride tick on video, and Harris even gets to go for quite a ride. The only Mustang components really left on the Hoonicorn are the A-pillar, B-pillar and roof, according to Harris. Everything else is ditched to create Block's ultimate Gymkhana tool. The 845-horsepower, 6.7-liter Rousch Yates V8 sits behind the front axle, and the grunt is routed to all four wheels through a Sadev gearbox usually found on Dakar Rally vehicles. The whole drivetrain is packed with cool little touches; like that giant handbrake that also disconnects power from the front wheels when in use. The superlatives about the Hoonicorn could go on forever, but settle in and let a very excited Harris tell you about just some of them. He's like a kid in a candy store here, and the look that combines surprise, fear and joy during his ride with Block is the kind that lacks a suitable word in the English language.

Fiat boss Elkann being mentored by... Bill Ford?
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Fiat Chairman John Elkann has been turning to an unusual source for advice on the car business. While speaking during an interview with The Detroit News, Elkann said he often asks Bill Ford Jr. for advice on how to proceed with the turnaround at Chrysler. "It's great to have the opportunity to share this with someone like Bill, who has experienced many things and gone through many things ... especially linked to Detroit." Elkann said.
As the Agnelli family heir, Elkann has inherited a long and fruitful friendship with the Ford family. While Giovanni Agnelli built his first Fiat four years before Henry Ford created his first vehicle, it was Ford that showed Agnelli the benefits of mass production and helped pave the way for what would become the Fiat empire.
Giovanni's grandson, Gianni, helped mentor Bill Ford when he was elected chairman of Ford Motor Company. Now, Ford is returning the favor by helping Elkann navigate the automotive industry's tumultuous waters.
