 I bought this as a project to do with my kid.  Life has changed and it is not going to get done.  It is a driver at present but it is still a project.  It sat for 7 years till I decided to let it go.  The guy I bought it from died shortly after sending it to me so there was no sending it back.  It was not as described but he was sick so I just kept it and was going to help my kid fix it right.  63 Falcon Sprint.   A real one. That is the good news. Bad news is that it has been modified.  302 Roller Motor from an HO  .  Has a mild solid roller cam.   Sounds great.  Has great low end.  Electronic distributor.  (Ford).  Starts with one half turn of the crank.  T-5 five speed with after market shifter.  Growls some in 3rd gear but shifts great.  Has a scattershield.  Clutch unknown.  No chatter.  No slip.  Shorty headers.  Flowmasters  (quiet must be Deltaflows). 9 " rear.  31 spline axles.  Detroit Locker.  Traction Bars.  They work.  This thing will do a burn out till next Tuesday without much effort.  Griffin radiator, aluminum.  Electric fan.  Cable clutch. Brand new ignition switch.  Battery in the trunk. 

   Tires will do to move it around and do burn outs but don't go too far.  I have done the safety stuff already.  It has rebuilt alternator, new regulator,  all wiring fixed for the charging circuit and it makes 14.1 volts.  Fuel lines are replaced so no fuel leaks.    It has a new Holley 670 street Avenger.  Works great.  Holley red pump.  Pressure regulator.  7 psi. 
  Interior is very tired.  Has some kind of after market buckets in the front. Car looks orange in the interior pics because I used the flash. It really is red. Has the Sprint console.  After market gauges in the dash actually work. 

  I will answer any questions the best I can.  I did not get too deep into this so some things I don't know.  It really does run like a champ and it has good oil pressure, 70 psi.  And I have not been able to make it run over 180 degrees. 

  We are busy racing cars and I have 2 other "whole car projects" so this one is not going to get done by me. Someone find it a home!!  Good basics are here.  Ask questions before you buy.  I will tell you everything I know.

2015 Ford Mustang GT Line-Lock Burnout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

In this brief Short Cut, Autoblog's Steven Ewing demonstrates Line-Lock on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. Accessed through an on-screen performance menu, the feature temporarily locks the front brakes to help you heat up the rear tires for better traction, as you would for drag racing. The result? A 15-second smokescreen.

What to see at the Detroit Auto Show 2023

Thu, Sep 14 2023

The 2023 North American Auto Show — also known as the Detroit Auto Show — is underway downtown. If you want to attend the public days of the show taking place September 16-24, hereÂ’s what you need to know about attending. But now that Autoblog has done our reconnaissance during the showÂ’s press days, we can tell you about the actual cars (and other things) you can see and experience. WhatÂ’s new? Ford The big new item from Ford is the 2024 F-150 pickup. You can check out the new trick tailgate, and see what the fuss is all about. The 2024 F-150 Raptor also debuted at the show, if you like high-power, off-roady full-size pickups. The show will also be a good opportunity to see the Mustang Dark Horse and Mustang Mach-E Rally up close and personal. Unfortunately, we only saw the wild 2025 Mustang GTD at an offsite event during press days, but it's quite possible Ford will roll it out for the public. Cadillac Cadillac revealed its refreshed 2025 CT5 at the Detroit show, and you can get a look at the revised front and the new tech-focused interior. Cadillac recently unveiled the all-electric 2025 Escalade IQ, so you can stop and see the most powerful Escalade ever while youÂ’re there. It wasnÂ’t on the floor during media days, but Cadillac told us theyÂ’d bring it for the public part of the show. Jeep Jeep unveiled its 2024 Gladiator at the show, and you can check out the new interior and trim levels in person at the Jeep stand. Jeep also has an indoor track set up for ride-alongs. If you havenÂ’t had the chance to see the refreshed 2024 Wrangler yet, you can see that, too, along with examples from the rest of the Jeep lineup, along with its Stellantis sibling, Ram. GMC GMC showed off the new, larger 2024 Acadia SUV for the Detroit Auto Show. ItÂ’s bigger than before, but does more to differentiate itself from its Chevy cousin, the Traverse. GMC also has its Sierra EV on display if youÂ’re interested in catching that in person. What else to see A number of automakers have large displays at the show with many of their models represented. In addition to those who debuted something new at the show, Buick, Chevrolet (check out the Silverado, Blazer and Equinox EVs, as well as the Corvette E-Ray), Lincoln with the new Nautilus, Toyota (get a look at the new Tacoma), Volkswagen, Honda, Kia, Hyundai, Mini, Volkswagen, Honda, Chrysler (the Airflow concept is there), Fiat, Ram and Dodge (see the Charger Daytona SRT concept) all have a sizable presence.
