1965 Ford Falcon Futura Factory 289 V8 Car on 2040-cars
Rockford, Iowa, United States
For sale is a 1965 Ford Falcon Futura. Came with the 289 v8 and c4 ultramatic transmission from the factory! The motor is currently out of the car, as we rebuilt a 302 to put in place of the 289. The motor is assembled and ready to be dropped in. 302 rotating assembly with 289 heads, head had over $900 worth of work, including, stainless valves, ported, all new springs and retainers, Comp Cams roller tip rockers, cleaned, heat treated and resurfaced. Has a Lunati Voodoo Cam package which included a .562 lift cam and lifters. HEI Distributor, Noisy Gear drive, new fuel pump, new oil pump, Edelbrock Aluminum intake, Edelbrock 600cfm carb. Motor will run very strong and move this light weight Falcon around very good, should be a good for 300+hp! Motor is ready to be dropped back in! The Transmission is still strong and dont slip a bit! Overall the car is very solid, no holes in trunk or floor, no rust, and its not a bondo car, this is very solid all metal still. Inner front fenders have very small holes which is typical with the Falcons, Mustangs and Fairlanes. Interior is all original, its in very good condition still, needs to be cleaned, steering wheel is becoming weathered which is typical of these cars. Paint is 20+years old, but as you see from the pictures it still has a shine to it, but its not show paint. All the chrome is there, along with all the trim, glass is in excellent condition still as well. Has brand new Jegs pro star wheels, with new BF Goodrich tires all the way around, brakes are in good working order aswell. For the most part the car is still original, been in the family for 20+ years, always stored inside out of the weather. Doors shut solid and tight like when it was brand new, all the body lines are flawless, straight with no exrtra gaps, rare to find anymore. This is someones chance to get a huge head start on a restoration since theres no body work that needs to be done, and the car is solid through out, or throw the motor in and drive just the way it is. These are getting harder and harder to fine, especially 2 door hard top Futuras! Any questions feel free to ask, located at Rockford, IA! Thanks

Ford builds USAF Thunderbirds Edition Mustang for charity
Tue, 02 Jul 2013Each year since 2008, Ford has created a one-off Mustang to celebrate military aviation, and the cars have been auctioned off at the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) Gathering of Eagles charity event to raise money to inspire the next generation of aviators. This year's charity car is the 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition, which also helps celebrate 60 years of Thunderbirds air show excellence.
Of all the EAA charity cars, this Thunderbirds Edition is the most in depth. Painted to match the F-16 Tomcat fighter jets used by Thunderbirds, this Mustang also gets a widebody kit and 22-inch Forgiato wheels to go with the cockpit's Recaro bucket seats, rear-seat delete and modified navigation screen and gauge cluster. Even the Mustang's projector puddle lights have been changed to show an aircraft silhouette - rather than the Mustang's galloping horse logo - when the doors are open.
Themes for previous EAA charity cars include the Blue Angels, SR-71 Blackbird and the Red Tails as well as the F-22 Raptor-inspired AV8R and AV-X10 "Dearborn Doll" models. Scroll down for the press release for the 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition, and be sure to check out our galleries for all six aviation-themed Mustangs.
