 1961 Ford Falcon Deluxe
Great condition
Very original


No sunroof
No airbags
No power windows
No power door locks
No air conditioning
No anti lock brakes
No cruise control

No radio ...
      This car is a deluxe model with the stainless trim but was ordered with manual transmission and radio delete. The original owner
 was all show no dough. I purchased this car from a collectors widow 10 years ago. She had 5 Falcons to choose from I took the most original in the best condition. The car still had inner tube tires. I did change them to tubeless tires but kept the original white wall look. I reupholstered the seats because I got tired of sitting on hog rings and the springs tore my pants. Over the last 10 years I have rebuilt the carburetor, replace the fuel/vacuum pump, replace the drum brake wheel cylinders, replaced the clutch, replaced thermostat, replaced plug, points, cap and rotor, plus the a fore mentioned tires and interior. This car is in great condition and is driven regularly. I drove it from LA to Phoenix and back last August. It has been very reliable over the years and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere.  The two issues it has are a tore headliner and it is missing a Falcon emblem on the right fender. The body is very straight. Paint is faded but fair. Tires and glass are in good condition. This is a California car with very little rust and I only say that because if I say no rust somebody will find some cancer somewhere but it is very minor.  This car has been both my wife and my pride and joy for many years and it is time to find another loving owner. If you love having 30 minute conversations with lunatics in the grocery parking lot and/or gas station this is the car for you!  I can't drive anyplace without people going out of their way to relive their youth with a long tail of yesteryear and the Falcon they owned once but that one was blue...   Truly a car the captures much attention, just look at the other people at a stop light and watch them point, thumbs up, honk, flash lights. I had people scream praise while driving on the freeway.  People love this car and you will too.  I am happy to respond to all questions. I have already purchased another vehicle and I am not looking to trade.  Before you ask what is the lowest I will take, the answer is the highest bid. Please understand that by bidding you have committed to purchasing the car at that bid price.  Thanks for looking, good luck bidding!

Watch these videos of an NHRA racer's bodywork blowing off into a crowd

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

Just a few months ago, fan safety at racetracks was a hot topic following the last-lap NASCAR Nationwide Series crash at Daytona that sent large pieces of racecars into the grandstands injuring 33 fans. Now, a freak incident at a National Hot Rod Association event resulted in a drag racer's bodywork flying into the crowd at the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals in Charlotte over the weekend. The carbon-fiber body of Robert Hight's Ford Mustang funny car blew off toward the end of a run when his engine exploded, but fortunately, the two fans evaluated after the incident were later released without serious injury.
As you can see in the image above, the body flew high into the air before landing on a walkway in front of the grandstands, a bit of happenstance that likely gave most fans enough time and space to move out of the way. Scroll down to watch a couple of videos showing what happened, including one from a fan's perspective that also reveals what appears to be part of the body's metal bracing landing dangerously close to the crowd.

Mulally to stay at Ford through end of 2014 at least

Fri, 06 Dec 2013

Alan Mulally isn't going anywhere... at least not just yet. The CEO who helped turn around Ford Motor Company has been linked to the top job at tech behemoth Microsoft, leading to a flurry of rumors about potential successors. Those rumors, though, may have just been put to rest - at least for a little while.
Speaking to Edsel Ford II (great-grandson of company founder Henry Ford) at the unveiling of the new Mustang, Automotive News Europe confirmed that Mulally would stick around until the end of next year. "Alan is staying through the end of 2014 and that's all I know," said Ford. "Frankly, he has told us that his plan is to stay with Ford through the end of 2014."
Presuming that Edsel Ford is correct and that Microsoft isn't so hot on Mulally that it saves the position for him, it seems increasingly likely that the 68-year-old exec is more interested in continuing to work in Dearborn rather than in Redmond.

2015 Ford C-Max gets a corporate nose job [w/video]

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

Ford might not have the splashiest booth here at the 2014 Paris Motor Show, but the automaker is showing off quite a bit of hardware that will actually end up on roads across Europe. Parisians are no doubt tickled at getting to see the specifications of the Mustang tuned for The Continent (which has a revised suspension for European roads, and a few visual nips and tucks), in addition to the revised face of the family-friendly C-Max.
As you can see, C-Max styling has been revisited with a deft touch, grafting Ford's six-sided corporate grille on the nose, in place of the outgoing car's two-part affair. New headlights can also be found on the car's revised front fascia, though the rear end of the C-Max looks only slightly different than the current version.
Inside the cabin, Ford has consolidated controls and upped the ante in terms of material quality, with "black satin" and chrome details and more storage capacity, overall. Grocery-lugging moms and dads everywhere should appreciate the hands-free liftgate feature, as well.
