This is a beautiful original Western Falcon Squire Wagon (81,xxx original miles) that underwent a restoration two summers ago. The engine is a 200 cid motor that has been rebuilt and has some trick aftermarket "go fast" parts on it to give it plenty of up and go power. Has a Clifford header exhaust on it and a two barrel carb with a GM distributor. These parts alone were $1300+ and it makes a big difference in performance. Dual exhaust help the motor breath nicely. The engine bay is completely detailed and shows great.
The exterior is a base/clear paint. The paint color is dark green metallic with 5 coats of clear had rubbed and buffed to a nice glassy finish. The paint also shows really nice at shows.
The interior was completely gutted and new custom color carpet added, and new leather 2010 Mustang adjustable bucket seats were added for a comfortable ride. The rear fold-down factory seat was taken to a custom upholstery shop and matched to the front buckets. When folded down., there is a wood deck that is in the back part of the interior making it really nice inside. New headliner, all rubber trim, door panels, chrome handles etc are all new. Custom console with gauges round off the interior.
This is a show winner at every show it attends and the last show I was parked next to a $100,000 built 68 Mustang and this Falcon had a crown around it the whole show...the poor guy next to me was a little pissed that my little Falcon Wagon was the hit of the show!...It's rare rare to have one in this condition. The floors are original and rust free as it the rest of the ford sheet metal.
The wood accents on the exterior were hand painted and cleared to make them have more of a "woody" look., and most people thing they are wood....(even though they are fiberglass) The rear back up lights are NOS units (do not work) and the rear window is electric and is controlled from the dash.
To see more on this beauty., I have built a website with a ton of photos and more descriptions. You can view the site at:
(EBAY WILL NOT LET ME PUT A LINK ON HERE TO MY WEBSITE WITH 80 PLUS IMAGES AND DETAILED DESCRIPTION of this falcon..., SO PLEASE EMAIL ME TO GET THE LINK, YOU WILL SEE A LOT MORE INFORMATION AND PHOTOS)
Don't let this one pass you by...selling only to fund the opening of our car shop...so need some start up cash...It's a shame that I built this car so nice and have to sell it sooo soon. I am kind of a perfectionist, and this car is detailed to the hilt. inside and out.
Thanks., Guy

Ford investing $500M in engine plant for 2.7L EcoBoost production
Sun, 30 Mar 2014Ohio is a hot area for Ford at the moment with the announcement just a few weeks ago that production of the next-generation F-650/F-750 medium-duty trucks would move from Mexico to the Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Now, Ford is investing $500 million to hire 300 workers at its Lima Engine Plant in Lima, Ohio, to add production of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 for the 2015 F-150.
The latest investment will be used to add a new flexible engine assembly system and renovate 700,000 square feet of the plant for machining and assembly areas. The Lima factory already builds Ford's 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter Duratec V6 engines. The plant opened in 1957, and it's on track to build its 40 millionth engine later this year.
Ford claims that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost will offer V8 performance with better efficiency in the F-150. It comes standard with intelligent stop/start that doesn't activate when the truck is towing or in four-wheel drive, and it's made from a combination of compacted graphite iron and aluminum for low weight and high strength. The company says that V6 engines have already proven popular in the F-150 with 57 percent of trucks in 2014 being equipped with either the naturally aspirated 3.7-liter or turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines.
Would a Mustang-based Lincoln look like this?
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Designer Josiah LaCalla has taken a stab at what a Ford Mustang-based Lincoln model might look like with the Continental Mark X1 concept. Make no mistake, Ford's luxury arm has made it abundantly clear that it won't be pursuing any new products outside of volume models, which means a flashy halo grand tourer like the one you see here isn't in the cards. LaColla used the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG as a basis for his creation, which explains the long nose, but we certainly don't mind the idea of a rear-wheel drive Lincoln with a cabin pushed to the aft.
While we're dreaming, there's certainly nothing stopping us from imagining what's under that lengthy hood. We like the idea of the 5.8-liter supercharged V8 from the Shelby GT500 pushing the Mark X1 down the road, but how about something a little more inventive? Something like a high-revving, buttery V12 with enough torque to push the contraption well past 200 miles per hour. Dream a little dream, people.
Jay Leno drives postcard-perfect '32 Ford Highboy Roadster
Mon, 25 Aug 2014At the turn of the century, it was arguably the Honda Civic that best defined inexpensive performance tuning, and in the '50s it was the Tri-5 Chevys. One of the earliest platforms to gain a huge following among young people looking for a cheap way to go fast was the classic '32 Ford Highboy Roadster. This week, Jay Leno's Garage looks at one of the very first vehicles that defined the look of the hot rod heyday.
This '32 Ford was built in the '40s and graced the cover of the fourth issue of Hot Rod Magazine back in 1948. All of the hot rods that you see shining at car shows today owe a serious debt of gratitude to this roadster. It bears all of the cues that define the look, including a notched frame and hidden door hinges. Under the three-piece hood is a flathead V8 boasting all sorts of period modifications, including copper cylinder heads. It was seriously fast in its era too, and proved it by reaching 112.21 miles per hour on a dry lakebed in 1947.
These days, this hot rod is on display at the Petersen Automotive Museum. Although, if you can't make it to California to see it, the United States Postal Service is celebrating this Ford with one of its two hot rod Forever stamps. Like Jay says in the video, in terms of hot rodding, "it all comes back to this." Check out the video to learn more about this rolling piece of tuning history.
