Up for Auction is my 1965 Falcon Futura, Factory C code v8, Green dot C4 Auto. Power Steering Manual breaks. Runs and drives great.
Just rebuilt the carb and serviced the breaks. new tires on AR S200 wheels. Ready to go to the cruise.
I have all 5 original wheels with Falcon Spinner caps, all in excellent shape and come with the car.
Car is very complete and original. Car has been repainted to original color, never any rust, a dent was pulled in the lower right rear quarter at some point. I replaced carpet the floors were blasted and coated in POR15 at the time, they are rock solid. The underside of this car is amazing, no rust at all. See pics. Paint is a 10 footer and driver quality, door jambs and such are original paint. Paint shines but has a few small scratches and a couple paint gun blemishes.One big chip pictured. Not sure what happened. Looks like something spilled on it and it flaked off in that spot. Chrome, trim and grille are really nice, no east coast pitting
Interior has new carpet and rear speaker panel. Upholstery is original and nice, two tiny blemishes on drivers side seat only and one crack in the dash panel. All windows work and glass is nice. Electrical works as should, heater needs cables hooked up, it was unhooked and disassembled when floors were blasted. Blower works. I lost gas pedal, LOL, but they are available. Missing the receiving sides of the seat belts. They are also available. Windows work and all glass is good.
Engine runs very well but it is original and rattles a little at idle, probably wrist pin according to my engine guy. Not rod or main noise. It is all original and complete under hood.
Trans shifts as should and no rearend noise.
Suspension is nice and tight, handles very well.
One of the cleanest body's I've seen. Perfect candidate for an original restore or just enjoy as it is. Sweet car overall.
Bid to win, you will be happy.

Transit Courier completes Ford's new commercial van line, will we get it?
Sat, 13 Apr 2013This week Ford rolled out the 2014 Transit Courier, the fourth addition to its Transit range. Ford says its the first time for the nameplate in the compact van segment.
"Ford has now completely transformed its commercial vehicle line-up, with four all-new, class-leading Transits for European customers," said Barb Samardzich, vice president of product development for Ford Europe. "With the all-new Transit range, we expect sales to grow to 400,000 units per year by 2016, well over 50 percent more than we sell today."
When the Courier goes on sale in the Spring of 2014, it will offer more than 1,400 pounds of payload capacity, multiple mounting points for racks or other framework and a rear cargo area that can carry items 5.3 feet-long. An optional folding passenger seat boosts the cargo length to 8.5 feet.
How Ford plans to handle insurance and repair questions surrounding new aluminum-bodied F-150
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Building a car out of aluminum has a number of benefits - the lighter weight allows the vehicle to be more agile, more fuel efficient, make better use of its power and be more resistant to dings and dents. The downside to the advanced construction, though, is that repairs are both challenging and expensive. That's troubling for the new, aluminum-bodied Ford F-150, because it's kind of made a name for itself as a rugged, durable work vehicle.
How will the legions of Ford buyers cope when it comes time to insure and repair their new trucks? Well, according to Ford, it's expecting a ten-percent jump in insurance costs for the aluminum-bodied F-150, although Ford's truck marketing manager, Doug Scott, was quick to point out that the F-150 is generally cheaper to insure than its competition from Ram and General Motors. "At the end of the day, that's sort of a wash," Scott told Automotive News at last week's Detroit Auto Show. "We've spent a lot of time and feel very comfortable that that's not going to be an inhibitor."
The other issue facing Ford is the distinct lack of body shops that have the training or equipment to repair aluminum-bodied vehicles. AN cites an estimate from the Automotive Service Association claiming that of the 30,000 independent body shops in the US, less than 10 percent are able to work on aluminum.
Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.
