I'm selling my restored 1969 Ford Falcon. It's been a great car for me over the last year and a half, but I need something a little more fuel efficient. We've basically replaced everything in the car aesthetically and mechanically. This includes:

-New polyurethane paint job with original color
-Rebuilt engine with less than 5,000 miles on it since the rebuild
-Reupholstered seats to match original seats
-New carpet to match original flooring
-New headliner to match original headliner
-New stereo with Aux input and radio. The stereo face looks just like the original radio that was in the car.
-New harmonic balancer
-New alternator
-New high performance radiator
-New tires put on it a few months ago with probably a little over 80% of its life left on it
-New battery put in it yesterday
-New brake shoes put on about 1,000 miles ago
-New brake lines

It's still not perfect. The bumpers need to be re-chromed and some metal parts in the interior need to be repainted, but I have the paint for the interior if you want it. Other than that, just about everything is restored. It's been my daily driver for a little over a year now and it's been very reliable ever since we got everything fixed on it. It still has under 100,000 original miles on it. It's at 96,500 right now, but it is my daily driver so that number will slowly increase.

This car is perfect for anyone looking for their first classic car. Parts are very easy to come by because they are interchangeable with Mustang parts. It also gets pretty good gas mileage for how old it is. The 3.3L Inline 6 engine has been getting me right around 18-20 mpg when I drive conservatively. It's also a great attention grabber. Every time I drive this car, I always have somebody compliment it. So if you're looking for a reliable and good looking classic car, this is the car for you!

Ford lowers MPG ratings on six vehicles

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Ford has announced that it will be lowering the fuel economy ratings on a number of its 2013 and 2014 model year vehicles after an error was discovered in the company's internal testing data. The EPA has been notified.
Worryingly for Ford, the vast majority of the vehicles affected are hybrids, including the C-Max, Fusion and MKZ in both hybrid and plug-in varieties (where applicable). Also covered as part of the rerating is the entire lineup of 2014 Fiesta engines, with the exception of the ST, including the turbocharged, three-cylinder EcoBoost.
The C-Max was originally rated at 47/47/47 mpg, but dropped to 43/45/40 last year and now to 40/42/37.

Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition

Wed, 26 Dec 2012

Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.

Thanks for keeping us on our toes, Detroit Auto Show [w/poll]

Wed, Jan 14 2015

Here at Autoblog, we love unexpected debuts at auto shows – and judging by our Detroit Auto Show comments and traffic, you do, too. Surprise reveals have been fewer and farther between in recent years with so many ways for vehicles to be teased or leak out, but this week's show has been a revelation. More to the point, it's been a series of revelations, with automakers from around the globe successfully delivering a brace of concept and production surprises. It's made our jobs a lot more exciting and challenging this week, and even though it's actually more work to react and run-and-gun when the sheet is pulled on a surprise reveal than it is to publish an already-written embargoed story, we've had more fun covering this show for you than any domestic show in memory. We hope you've enjoyed the surprises along with us. To that end, borrowing the words of an unnamed automaker PR flack, we'd like to thank the following automakers for enduring "mountain of antacids" and that "creeping sense of paranoia" necessary to keeping ones' wares totally under wraps until the sheets are pulled off the sheetmetal: Buick Avenir concept Chevrolet Bolt concept Ford GT concept Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Hyundai HCD-15 Santa Cruz concept And while we're at it, we'd like to throw in an shout-out to Detroit's substantially revised and revitalized Cobo Center, and in particular, the redone Michelin media center, which is arguably the single best accommodations for writing show stories that we've encountered on the entire international circuit. Well done, everyone. Thank you, and keep the surprises coming. Auto News Detroit Auto Show Buick Chevrolet Ford Hyundai Volvo 2015 Detroit Auto Show
