1964 Ford Falcon bought car to restore but also have a 65 model V8 car so I'm selling this one. I have only owned the car for 6 months but I'll tell you what I know. Car runs and drives and stops. but I would not plan on driving it home. Since I have owned it I replaced the gas tank, sending unit, fuel pump and rebuilt the carb. Basically got it running and driving since it has been sitting a while. Manual brakes are good looks like most of the system was replaced not long ago. interior is as shown front carpet has been cut out floor pans have been replaced at some time. Car needs body work and has some rust bubbling up through paint. all glass is good and windows function like they should. Just had it aligned last week but steering is a little loose, no power assist but steers easy. C4 Transmission shifts good through all three gears however kick down has not been hooked up. Motor runs fine has a hooker header on it ( needs header gasket) and straight dual exhaust with glass packs, actually sounds nice. Was told motor was rebuild with a small cam in it and it does sound a little better than stock. I ran the numbers on engine and it comes back to a 1978 Ford 200 six so it is not original. I also have a 1967 289 engine that goes with it if the buy it now is chosen it comes with a rebuild kit as shown including intake and exhaust manifolds, crank and bore checks out good just hone the bores polish the crank a little and it should be good to go. Well that's about all I know You can call or text me at 276-619-4844 with any questions....John

I've have added some pic of undercarriage but ebay would not me add any more, as you can see the floor pans have had work done on both sides, spring hangers are good, torq boxes are fairly solid I picked the car up by them on the lift. If you need more I'll have to email them to you. I have had several people say the don't need the 289 motor so the buy it now without the extra engine is $3000.00 ..John

Ford C-Max, Fusion hybrids subject of MPG lawsuit in California
Fri, 01 Mar 2013A California lawsuit over the fuel economy claims for the 2013 Ford C-Max was first reported back in December. Based on the numerous reports we've heard of disgruntled owners failing to get their car's EPA fuel economy ratings on the C-Max and 2013 Fusion Hybrid, we suspected there would be more to this story. The Detroit News is reporting that two California law firms are combining their lawsuits against Ford on this matter for "false and misleading" claims.
The article states that there are hundreds of C-Max and Fusion Hybrid owners who have joined the lawsuit, but the issue isn't limited to customers. In December, Consumer Reports extensively tested both the Fusion Hybrid and C-Max and found that both hybrids performed significantly worse than their EPA claims. This all comes just a few months after Hyundai and Kia took the unprecedented step of lowering the fuel economy ratings for all of their 2012 and 2013 model-year vehicles.
Ford begins testing right-hand-drive Mustang
Wed, 20 Aug 2014Ford has officially kicked off testing of the right-hand-drive variant of its sixth-generation, 2015 Mustang, according to a statement issued by the company, which came with the above photo.
According to Ford, this will mark the first time a right-hand-drive 'Stang has traveled down the company's assembly line alongside its LHD brethren. It is far from the first of the legendary pony cars to feature its wheel on the wrong side, though, as converters in RHD markets across the globe have been making swaps for years.
Ford is planning on using the white, droptop Mustang for RHD development ahead of the car's arrival in the UK, Australia and South Africa, among other markets. Scroll down for the official press blast.
Martini Mustang is a 'what if moment' gone right
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Feast your eyes on a masterpiece. This is Steve Strope's Ford Mustang in the classic fastback bodystyle, and as you'll notice, it sports the signature colors of Martini Racing, a livery that's as legendary as any Gulf Racing-styled car. But the red, white and blues of the Martini stripe down this Mustang's middle tell only a very small part of the story, in the latest video from Petrolicious.
What would you guess is under the hood? A 289-cubic-inch V8? Maybe a 302, or some absurd Ford crate engine? Maybe Strope went all Tokyo Drift - he's actually responsible for the "Hammer" Plymouth Satellite driven by Vin Diesel at the end of the movie - and found an RB26DETT to drop into the pony car? You'd be wrong on all counts.
This mad, mad man somehow finagled a Ford-Lotus engine from a 1966 Indianapolis 500 car into the Mustang's engine bay. Yes, a Mustang with an engine designed for a 160-mile-per-hour, open-wheel racecar. That's like someone in 40 years dropping McLaren's 2.4-liter V8 from the MP4-28 into a Scion FR-S. It'd just make a monster.
