Drivers side drum is shot with hole in it. See pictures. The back of the frame doesn't look bad from what i can see but the front core support member needs help or maybe can't be fixed but included is a front core support frame section that i cut out of a 1963 1/2 galaxie xl frame.                                                                                                                                                     I will also be installing the rear end and  regular rear springs from that same XL frame to make this a roller.  It wasn't till October that 427 cars got 31 spline axles and this one is a 28 spline so it  would be correct for 427 early cars which this one is.  It still has the door jam tag and cal tags attached and a clean Oregon title. It decodes as. Body= 63 B is 2 door fast back,Color = 1, Gold metallic or better known as champagne, Trim/interior = 95 is Red Red, Date is 12 C = March 12 1963, DSO is 71 = Las Angles, Axel  is 9= 4:11 gears, Trans is 5 = 4 speed trans. Vin # is 3J66R150606.  It also has a NHRA ?championship or national record holder sticker on the drivers side inter fender well. Most of the sticker is currently missing.It also has a Honolulu police sticker police saying this is a reconstructed car on the pass side front window. See pictures.                                                                             Also an alarm sticker. Did the car get stolen and had to be rebuilt. Or is this one of 12 gold light weight cars that got rebuilt with regular parts after it crashed??? I wish i knew the stories it could tell about those 411 gears and how many people say its tail lights at the end of the run???? It appears it might have ran with skinny tires on 15x7 us slot mags that i will have on the front of the car with newer 165 /15 tires that hold air. The wheels have patina like they lived there for 40 or more years.                                                                                                                                 Then there is the special seat belts that were only in the front but that say Superior ind model 985????? Were they race car  seat belts???Not included in sale!!!  And how many cars were ordered with 411 rear ends and for what use????? I wish it could talk and tell me stories!!!!  If any one knows what car it was please help me id it. It came back to the mainland to Portland Oregon and with its friend a light weight car that was thought to be Bonhams car that now houses the original engine trans and rear end out of this car. ? I think it might have some race history and if you know it does please help if not for the car but the people of Hawaii this could be a national treasure not junk!! License number AXX 191 aloha state.                                                                                                                                                                                                           Don't laugh to much! These cars are getting hard to find and people have been known to re body these and with all the proper drive train it is still a R code car in my book. ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING PLEASE!!!!

Mustang retakes monthly pony car sales crown from Camaro

Wed, Dec 3 2014

Going back to their origins in the Swinging '60s, the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro have been fierce rivals for fans' hearts and dollars. Historically, the Ford often led in volume, but Chevy took the muscle car top spot in 2009 upon the Camaro's rebirth. However, with the launch of the latest Blue Oval pony car, the tide is turning back in Ford's favor. November was the first full month of sales for the new 2015 Mustang, and according to TheDetroitBureau.com, the model did spectacularly well. The Blue Oval shifted 8,728 of them, up 62 percent from same month last year, with the automaker proclaiming it the model's best November sales since 2006. Conversely, 4,385 units of the Camaro were delivered, down 13.5 percent year-over-year, meaning its sales were roughly half that of the new-generation Mustang. Ford is understandably happy with the results, and product development director Raj Nair even hinted to TDB that another version of the Mustang might be unveiled at January's North American International Auto Show. Rumor has it that the model will be the even more potent Shelby Mustang GT350R. Despite the Mustang's November success, the Camaro outsells it year to day. So far in 2014, Ford has sold 73,124 Mustangs versus 79,669 examples of the Camaro. With December offering the last chance for an overtake, the Bowtie may yet remain king for this year's sales crown. A new Camaro is peeking over the horizon, as well. It's reportedly moving to the Alpha platform used by the Cadillac ATS, and production could start in late 2015. Prototypes are already testing at the Nurburgring, and camouflaged examples have been spotted weirdly being compared to its '80s forefather.

2015 Ford Expedition stays the course, adds EcoBoost power

Tue, 18 Feb 2014

The era of the body-on-frame, fullsize SUV is rapidly vanishing in favor of smaller, unibody crossovers. However, Ford still sees life in the segment with the reveal of the updated 2015 Expedition, now available (solely) with the company's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6. The new truck will make its public debut at the 2014 DFW Auto Show in Dallas on February 19.
The loss of the previous 5.4-liter V8 in favor of Ford's 3.5-liter, direct-injected, twin-turbocharged V6 engine might rankle some of the Expedition's fans, but Ford claims that the change gives the SUV better fuel economy, more power and increased low-end torque than before. Unfortunately, official engine specifications won't be released until later this year, but Ford says engine output will be similar to the 365 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque that this powerplant produces in other applications. The EcoBoost is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission, and the SUV now uses electrically assisted power steering, for an even greater fuel economy advantage. Ford claims this also allows for better maneuverability at low speeds and better feel at high speeds.
Exterior styling is basically unchanged for 2015. The front end has the same three-bar chrome grille and headlight design, but the lower air dam gets added chrome and LED lamps. The rear gets more brightwork on the hatch, and there's a chrome-tipped exhaust pipe. As before, Ford is offering the Expedition in two wheelbase lengths - 119 inches and 131 inches. A new, optional, continuously controlled damping system alters suspension settings constantly based on 46 parameters and offers comfort, normal and sport modes (just like the Expedition's sister, the recently refreshed and decidedly less-attractive Lincoln Navigator).

Ford bringing adaptive steering to the masses [w/video]

Thu, 29 May 2014

Within the next year, Ford will offer a brand-new adaptive steering system (unimaginatively dubbed "Ford Adaptive Steering"), and this week, the automaker invited us out to its proving grounds in Dearborn, MI to get a taste for how its new setup works. In function, Ford's system doesn't greatly differ from the majority of other adaptive steering units already on the market from companies like Audi or BMW, but consider this: Ford will be the first non-luxury automaker to offer this technology, and uniquely, the whole system fits inside the car's steering wheel.
Ford's engineers have worked hard to create a system that can be tacked on to the company's full lineup of cars, trucks and utility vehicles, and says that the adaptive steering will be uniquely tuned for each specific vehicle. The automaker will not confirm exactly which vehicle will launch with this technology, but for the purpose of our preview, we tested the technology in a 2014 Fusion - a vehicle with already-good behind-the-wheel feel, one that the company says best demonstrates its current steering efforts.
