I am selling a 1964 Ford Falcon. The car was a shell with the frontend cut out when I purchased it. It turned out to be a 6 year project. I started by sanding body down to bare metal. I cut out all rust which was minimal. I purchased and installed a Rod and Custom Motorsport crossmember and tubular control arms along w/ steering shaft kit and purchased Flaming River u-joints. I did all bodywork and applied self etching valspar 440 primer. I purchased a 1977 Ford Mustang 2 Cobra and utilized the engine and C4 transmission, along with power rack and spindles and gas pedal and shifter. Engine was rebuilt and balanced by local speedshop. Bored to .030, new pistons and rings, bearings and crane 260h cam. Comp cams dual roller timing set. Heads were ground, all new valves, seals, springs and shimmed for height. Ford Racing stainless shorty headers which have been wrapped. Holley Contender aluminum dual plenum intake, Holley 390cfm 4160 model carb and KN filter and fuel pressure gauge. Edelbrock aluminum high volume water pump and new aluminum radiator w/ remote trans cooler. Flex-lite fan w/ therm switch preset at 180 degrees.Entire interior and undercarriage received 2 coats of POR 15 paint. Undercarriage then got 2 coats of 3m undercoating. Dash, trim panels, doors and engine compartment got 3 coats primer and 3 coats of charcoal gray acrylic enamel. Body received 3 coats primer and 5 med coats of Hotrod black acrylic urethane. New Richmond 3:00/1 gears, bearings and races in rear axle. Installed new dual reservoir master cylinder and power booster. Power brakes w/front discs and rear drums and all new shoe springs and small parts. New custom driveshaft w/ Spicer slip yoke. New front coil springs, and all new shocks at each corner. New leaf spring shackles and bushings. Front and rear sway bars. Dual exhaust w/ flex couplers and glass pack mufflers. Bucket seats, black carpet, front floor and firewall are insulated. Roll bar, Sony CD player is mounted cleanly under dash. Factory radio is still in deluxe dash and uncut.Entire car has been rewired w/ 77 fuse panel installed in steel glove compartment. New heater blower motor, plenum and defrost ducts along w/ tubing. All brake lines, fuel lines and tranny lines have been replaced w/ stainless flex lines running to calipers. Auto meter gauges, 15 gallon fuel cell. All window, door, windshield and rear window seals have been replaced except 2 vent windows. New window fuzzies. I never got around to buying interior door handles but have original stainless trim pieces. Also never found a rear bumper and just made one out of 2x2 tubular steel when car was on jackstands.Also made custom front wheel well liners from newer car to eliminate rust above headlight pods. This car turns alot of heads. I did not build it to drive to a carshow and win awards. I built it to drive with minimal maintenance and run on regular unleaded fuel. I have aprox. 5000 miles on car since it was assembled. It also has BF Goodrich radial ta's mounted on Cragar superspoke wheels that are like new. This car fires right up, and drives great with no leaks. It is sold as is with no warranty, and buyer is responsible for pick up or shipping. Please feel free to ask me any questions about the car.

Mazda Turnpike in Japan shut down for racing
Mon, Dec 29 2014The people behind Motorhead Magazine in Japan clearly have some friends in high places. Not only did they manage to shutdown eight kilometers of the Mazda Turnpike up the Hakone mountain, but they invited some of the country's premiere racers to take a drive up the hill. This wasn't just a Sunday cruise either. Featuring a BMW Z4 from the Super GT series, a classic Ford GT40, two flavors of Nissan GT-R and two takes on the Subaru Impreza WRX STI, these guys came ready to run. When an opportunity to let racecars challenge a curvy mountain road presents itself, you don't squander it. Thankfully, the folks at Motorhead knew that and outfitted the course with a plethora of cameras and high-quality sound equipment to capture the action. The result is nothing short of sublime. Take the video's urging to turn up your speakers for this one, and watch as these racers hit ludicrous speeds in a beautiful place never meant for them.

Hertz goes Dutch with Ford Focus ST-H
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Want to take a performance car for a ride? Hertz can make that happen. Spin by your local rental location (depending, of course, on availability) and you can take out a Dodge Challenger, Ford Mustang, Chevy Camaro, even a Corvette as part of the Adrenaline Collection. Hertz's Dream Cars lineup even includes Porsches and AMGs. But the really interesting stuff is what you can't get anywhere else: cars built specifically for Hertz.
Back in 1966, Hertz had Ford cook up a special run of Mustang GT350H models in back with gold stripes. It became an icon in and of itself, and in 2008 Hertz had a new batch of Shelby GT-Hs made. Earlier this year, Hertz contracted Penske to deliver another fleet of specially-built Mustangs you can rent. But if your travel plans include a trip to the Netherlands, Hertz has a completely different type of specially-prepared Ford on offer for you.
Back in August, Ford delivered a couple of Focus STs made specifically for Hertz in Holland. Now it's expanded that fleet even further. The Ford Focus ST-H features the same 252-horsepower 2.0-liter turbo four (and everything else) as the standard Focus ST, but gets that signature black exterior with gold stripes and a black leather interior with Recaro buckets. So in case a trip to Amsterdam doesn't hold enough thrills, now you can throw a hot hatch into the mix as well. Scope out the press release (in Dutch - isn't that weird?) below.
2015 Ford Mustang to offer solid-rear axle, sort of
Tue, 17 Dec 2013One of the biggest knocks against the last Ford Mustang was its solid-rear axle. Not one to actively court criticism, Ford dutifully swapped out the old-fashioned rear end for something a bit more modern in the redesigned 2015 Mustang, adding an independent rear suspension across the board.
While an IRS Mustang is great news for those that value handling and ride comfort, there's one big group that it's bad news for - drag racers. See, a solid-rear axle is a big deal for drag racers, because not only is it more durable and cheaper, but it's better for the hard launches that can make or break a race.
To satiate this vocal demographic, Ford will sell a body-in-white version of the Stang, complete with a nine-inch rear axle, that will debut at the 2014 Performance Racing Industry show. The news came from gas2.org, which cited an unnamed employee of Ford Racing at this year's PRI show.
