Ford Falcon Futura Convertible on 2040-cars
Hemlock, New York, United States
You are looking at a 1963 Ford Falcon convertible. It is a 3-speed automatic (on the column) with a straight-6 cylinder 170HP motor with a single barrel carburetor. Current owner bought the car in November 2009 with the plan to fix it up to drive it during the summers. The car has been stored in a heated garage 8 months of the year since current owner bought in 2009. The car is originally from Oregon. I live in Buffalo, NY. The car has been driven sparingly: About 3000 miles a summer. You will see that there is a parts catalogue for MAC’S Antique Auto Parts, which deals solely in antique Ford parts. They are a local company (to Buffalo, NY). I have been able to replace any part I needed. The following is a list of work done to restore the car for the purpose of driving and using it: 1)11/2009: Rebuilt motor and transmission; 2)12/2009:Replaced distributor; 3)03/2010:New carburetor, exhaust, and front end; 4)04/2010:Seat recovered and new carpet installed (authentic replacement) 5)06/2010:New battery and front shocks 6)07/2011:New brakes—all wheels; 7)04/2012:New springs on front and back end and new rear shocks; 8)04/2012:New gas tank, fuel pump, and sending unit; 9)09/2013:New soft top;10)06/2014:Replaced faulty battery, paint touched up and green trim\completely redone; 11) 07/2014:New radiator 12) 04/2015 After photos; chrome windshield frame redipped to remove tin pitting I have changed the oil on the car every 1500 miles and take very good care of it. It was restored in order to be driven, however, someone could make this a show car if desired. I am not finding enough time to use the car lately. I have had a lot of fun with it. It’s just time to sell it. However, I do want to get an appropriate price for it, and if I cannot I will not sell the car.

Ford and GM link bonus checks to quality scores
Tue, 29 Apr 2014The poor first quarter earnings of Ford and General Motors are having an effect all the way up the food chain. Both automakers struggled with recalls in the first three months of the year, and, according to The Detroit News, they have responded by increasing the percentage of bonuses tied to vehicle quality for salaried workers, including top executives.
GM announced that 25 percent of bonuses (up from 10 percent) for all salaried workers would be tied to its vehicle quality standards. The automaker revealed in its financial report that it spent $1.3 billion on recall-related repairs in the first quarter, and net income was down 86 percent.
Ford also increased the quality proportion of bonuses for about 26,000 salaried workers all the way up to CEO Alan Mulally from 10 percent to 20 percent. The company announced in its report that the amount paid out in warranty and recall claims was about $400 million higher than expected in the first quarter. Its net income fell 39 percent from the previous year. "The change reflects how critical quality is to our overall business," said spokesperson Todd Nissen speaking to Autoblog.
A closer look at the 2015 Ford F-150
Thu, 16 Jan 2014Despite having to share Ford's Detroit Auto Show stand with the hot new 2015 Mustang, the brand-new F-150 was arguably an even more important debut. Why? Ford moved some 700,000 examples of its F-Series truck in 2012, making it not only the best-selling pickup truck, but the top-selling vehicle in the US, by a long-shot.
The 2015 F-150 raises the bar for pickup trucks in a big way, with big-time use of aluminum. Because of this, roughly 700 pounds have been removed from the truck's overall weight, making it even more efficient than before, while still offering all of the capability that pickup owners expect. And with a host of engines under the hood, including a new 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6, the 2015 F-150 will surely offer something for everyone.
During the Detroit Auto Show, west coast editor Michael Harley took a closer look at the new F-150, talking to some of the truck's engineers. Have a look at the full video, below.
Ford dissects the heart of the 2015 Mustang, its engine range
Thu, 05 Dec 2013Happy Mustang Day. Are you tired of hearing about the 2015 Ford Mustang yet? No? Good, here's a bunch of mechanical data on Ford's sixth-gen muscle car, along with cutaways of the GT's 5.0-liter V8 and the new 2.3-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder shown above. We also have a smattering of info on the Stang's updated transmissions and an exploded-parts-diagram view of its all-new independent rear suspension.
Ford is set to make waves offering the Mustang with a turbo for the firs time since the small-volume SVO of the 1980s. Displacing 2.3 liters, the engine's twin-scroll turbo should help the four-cylinder turn out a projected 305 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, while also returning the best fuel economy in the Mustang's engine lineup. As we said in our Deep Dive, the EcoBoost will be slotted in as a premium engine, above the 3.7-liter V6 but below the 5.0-liter V8.
Speaking of that high-revving eight-cylinder, it's receiving a new cylinder head with high-flow ports. The intake and exhaust valves are larger and the cams have been replaced, among other tweaks. It should rev even higher thanks to a rebalanced crankshaft and forged connecting rods. Ford is still claiming a projected 420 hp and 390 lb-ft, although as many of the changes for the 2015's V8 come from the 2013 Boss 302, we're going to assume there's some sandbagging at work.
