Nice unrestored 1965 Ford Falcon. The car is a daily driver. Has the original black California plates, even has the original license plate frame from the Ford dealer in Mojave Cal. been in the high desert all it's life. I bought this from the second owner and have a stack of receipts back to 1990 when he bought it. It even has the original keys. The car had sat for the last 15 years, I bought it and prepped the engine and after rebuilding carb, changing plugs and fluids etc. it fired right up and runs like a champ. I had a new master cylinder installed as well as brakes and wheel cylinders cleaned and inspected, bearings packed and four new white wall tires installed and new shocks, new thermostat housing and thermostat. That is the original white paint but at some time in the past the left front fender has been replaced. As can be seen in photos there is a minor dent at the left rear corner and directly behind the right front fender is a ripple from when he drove off a curb. There is absolutely no rust issues, this is a high desert car. The interior is original and does show it's 49 years. The engine runs strong, no smoke or problems, engine has the factory tag stating 1965 289, has the C-4 trans, 8 inch Ford rear end and is the five lug bolt pattern and is a fun little car to drive. Previous owner told me it was a column shift car originally, he had it converted and was getting it ready for paint (that is why the engine compartment is blue) marital problems caused him to lose interest and it sat. Previous owner also had dual exhaust installed with low restriction mufflers and it sound good. The aftermarket radio is no-op due to the speakers deteriorated so I pulled them out. All the glass is good, no cracks, all lights and blinkers and gauges work heater works wipers work, the horn has a push button under dash. The hub caps are not original they are 1957 caps. I have put about 200 miles on it and it runs very well, a four barrel carb would sure perk it up but as it is it is quicker than a jack rabbit on a date. The chassis is the same as all the first generation Mustangs so upgrades are cheap and plentiful. These little Falcons are definitely on the rise as affordable performance Hot Rods. This is a nice rust free 77,000 mile car from the High Desert of So. Cal. The car has a clear and proper title and is current (no non-op or such). I do have it for sale locally and will entertain buy it now offers, but please don't email me asking my bottom line. My reserve is fair and may end auction early unless it hits the reserve first. I have fairly described the car but if you have any further questions I will answer and post them for all to see. Thank you for looking.

Jurassic Park made a big impact on these Jeep drivers

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

For a certain cohort of young folks, Jurassic Park is a touchstone film from their childhood. Not only did it play into practically every little boy's love of dinosaurs, the movie included some great action scenes and special effects that still hold up today. In its latest video, The Aficionauto takes a look the Jurassic Park Motor Pool, a California car club with over 40 fans who created replica vehicles from the iconic film.
The club is made up of an interesting cross-section of people. Many of them were Jeep Wrangler fans that already loved off-roading and Jurassic Park, and liked the idea of bringing them together. Like any close-knit club, it ends up being about community and people coming together to share their interests. It's quite a heartwarming video. Also, be sure to stay until the end because The Aficionauto teases a future Jurassic Park-themed vehicle. Scroll down to check out the motor pool.

Ford recalls over 500,000 trucks and SUVs, including Explorer, F-150, and Lincoln Aviator

Fri, Aug 30 2019

For the second time in a month, Ford is recalling the brand-new 2020 Explorer and 2020 Lincoln Aviator for minor safety issues. This recall, which also affects certain 2018-2020 Ford F-150s, 2019-2020 Ford F-Series Super Duty trucks, 2018-2019 Ford Explorers, and 2019-2020 Ford Expeditions, pertains to potentially faulty seat-back reclining mechanisms. In total, the recall touches 550,186 vehicles. A mechanical part meant for relaxation and comfort has the Ford Motor Company stressin'. Ford says potentially affected vehicles might be missing the "third pawl required for seat-back strength" in the reclining mechanisms on certain seats. Because of this, the seats might not properly keep a person in place during the event of a crash or otherwise. In the F-150s, F-Series Super Duty trucks, 2018-2019 Explorers, and Expeditions, the recall affects vehicles with manual driver and/or front passenger seat-back recliners. On the 2020 Explorers and Lincoln Aviators, rear outboard seats with manual recliners are of concern. Of the more than 550,000 vehicles, 483,325 vehicles are in the United States, 58,712 are in Canada and 8,149 are in Mexico. Thus far, Ford is not aware of any injuries from the issues. Ford says it expects most vehicles will not need repair, but dealers will inspect the seat structures out of precaution. If fault is found, dealers will replace the seat structure altogether. For this recall, Ford's reference number is 19C07. Contact your dealer for more information. Featured Gallery 2020 Ford Explorer View 47 Photos Recalls Ford Lincoln Truck SUV

Ford reflects on radical Mustang concept that never reached showrooms

Tue, 25 Jun 2013

The Ford Mustang that we all know and love made major waves in the auto industry way back in 1964 by offering style and reasonable pricing with optional V8 power. Its long hood and short rear deck, combined with a low-slung and sporty cockpit, made a lasting impression in the minds of consumers and car designers alike, and its basic shape has so endured the test of time that it's still in use today.
This being the case, you may be interested to know that the first Mustang of 1964.5 wasn't actually the first Mustang at all, being preceded by a concept car that made its public debut in 1962. This concept was nothing like the car that would eventually make it into production, with a radical wedge shape and a small V4 engine sitting behind the car's two occupants, driving the rear wheels. In other words, the conceptual Mustang was pretty much the complete opposite of the production Mustang besides the name.
Ford has kindly decided go through its massive archive to bring the original Mustang concept back into the public eye. The company goes so far as to pose this question to fans of the pony car: "Should we borrow a few of these style elements for the next iteration of the Mustang?" Check out our image gallery above and then let 'em know what you think in the Comments below.
