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.

2014 Ford Fusion order guide reveals new base Hybrid model, equipment changes

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

We've gotten our grubby little digits on the dealer order guide for the as-yet-unreleased 2014 Ford Fusion thanks to an anonymous tipster, and while there isn't much that's unexpected, there are some meaningful equipment changes to report after the rakish sedan's first year on the market.
Mechanically, the big news is, of course, the recently confirmed availability of the 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder paired with a six-speed automatic. The powertrain replaces the 1.6-liter automatic setup of 2013, though if you want a manual transmission, you'll still get the extra .1-liter of displacement.
On the equipment front, there are newly available rear inflatable seatbelts - as seen previously on the Explorer - along with a new heated steering wheel and cooled seat option on Titanium and Titanium Hybrid models (the latter two options will be late availability).

2015 Ford Mustang Convertible makes inappropriate appearance in Detroit [w/video]

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

With the polar vortex fresh in the minds of Autoblog's Detroit-based staff, we're finding it funny that any manufacturer would choose January in the Motor City to show off a new and highly anticipated convertible to the general media and public for the first time. But Ford has done just that, giving us our first real peek at the new Mustang Convertible in the flesh.
The new Mustang Convertible is more or less unchanged from the standard coupe, with some subtle styling tweaks to accommodate the retractable soft top. Engine and transmission choices are identical to the hardtop, although we should expect slightly lower performance due to the hardware for the roof. Like the coupe, neither prices nor performance metrics have been published yet for the convertible.

2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid recalled over lack of roof padding

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Ford is recalling 33,021 units of its 2013 C-Max Hybrid not equipped with optional panoramic roof panels. During testing, the model in question returned testing results for occupant head injuries that fell outside of criteria laid out in the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. The issue puts occupants at greater risk of injury in the event of a crash if they are in an affected car.
The recall will begin August 19, at which time C-Max Hybrid owners can take their cars to dealers to have energy-absorbent material installed between the headliner and roof. The bulletin below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has more information.
