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.

Ford recalling 205k Edge and Lincoln MKX units for possible corrosion
Thu, 30 Oct 2014After the horrible weather last winter, it's hard to look forward for the season to return this year. For those readers in much of the country, the snow is going to be flying soon, and with it comes salt on the roads. That means Ford's regional recall for the 2007-2008 Edge and Lincoln MKX arrives at the perfect time because they are at risk for corrosion.
The campaign covers 204,448 examples of the models in 21 states, plus the District of Columbia and some provinces of Canada. In total there are 186,024 vehicles in need of repair in the US and 18,424 in Canada.
According to Ford, it's possible for the area, "under the reinforcement brackets where the fuel tank is mounted" to corrode. If this happens, there might be a gas smell in the vehicle or even a fuel leak could develop. In fact, the automaker reports that one fire could be related to the problem but no injuries or accidents are reported.
2016 Ford Mustang getting California Special treatment
Fri, May 8 2015The sixth-generation Mustang hasn't even been around for a full year, but Ford is already prepping a couple of tweaks for 2016. We've now learned that there will be a California Special version, and if that name sounds familiar, it's because Ford has a long history of doing the GT/CS treatment on its 'Stangs. We don't have anything to go on right now, save the image you see here. But previous California Special versions were limited to things like new wheels, spoilers, badges, and some paint options, so we aren't expecting anything too drastic. It's also unclear if Ford will offer the new GT/CS on both the coupe and convertible, or if it'll just stick to the hardtop. We'll get the full details on Monday, May 11 – that's when Ford will reveal everything it's done for the 2016 Mustang lineup. Stay tuned.
Lincoln trumpets $129M investment, 300 new jobs in Louisville for MKC
Tue, 26 Aug 2014Remember when we used to talk about how close Lincoln was to being axed and how it seemed any day now the Grim Reaper would use it as a car service back to the grave? Last time we did it was, oh, not even a month ago. What a difference 27 days makes: Ford and Lincoln are trumpeting a $129M investment in the Louisville Assembly Plant that builds the MKC.
In July the MKC was the third-best-selling Lincoln of the brand's six offerings, beat by the MKZ and - by a much smaller margin - the MKX. It has sold 2,895 units in the two months it's been on sale, which is more than half the year-to-date sales of the MKS, MKT and Navigator. It's already important, is what we're trying to say, and this is before the Chinese market gets a crack at it later this year.
The money headed to Kentucky will be joined by 300 new workers, another marker in Ford's march to create 12,000 hourly jobs in the US by next year. You can read more about it in the press release below.
