I am selling a 1964 Ford Falcon. The car was a shell with the frontend cut out when I purchased it. It turned out to be a 6 year project. I started by sanding body down to bare metal. I cut out all rust which was minimal. I purchased and installed a Rod and Custom Motorsport crossmember and tubular control arms along w/ steering shaft kit and purchased Flaming River u-joints. I did all bodywork and applied self etching valspar 440 primer. I purchased a 1977 Ford Mustang 2 Cobra and utilized the engine and C4 transmission, along with power rack and spindles and gas pedal and shifter. Engine was rebuilt and balanced by local speedshop. Bored to .030, new pistons and rings, bearings and crane 260h cam. Comp cams dual roller timing set. Heads were ground, all new valves, seals, springs and shimmed for height. Ford Racing stainless shorty headers which have been wrapped. Holley Contender aluminum dual plenum intake, Holley 390cfm 4160 model carb and KN filter and fuel pressure gauge. Edelbrock aluminum high volume water pump and new aluminum radiator w/ remote trans cooler. Flex-lite fan w/ therm switch preset at 180 degrees.Entire interior and undercarriage received 2 coats of POR 15 paint. Undercarriage then got 2 coats of 3m undercoating. Dash, trim panels, doors and engine compartment got 3 coats primer and 3 coats of charcoal gray acrylic enamel. Body received 3 coats primer and 5 med coats of Hotrod black acrylic urethane. New Richmond 3:00/1 gears, bearings and races in rear axle. Installed new dual reservoir master cylinder and power booster. Power brakes w/front discs and rear drums and all new shoe springs and small parts. New custom driveshaft w/ Spicer slip yoke. New front coil springs, and all new shocks at each corner.

Roll bar, Sony CD player is mounted cleanly under dash. Factory radio is still in deluxe dash and uncut.Entire car has been rewired w/ 77 fuse panel installed in steel glove compartment. New heater blower motor, plenum and defrost ducts along w/ tubing. All brake lines, fuel lines and tranny lines have been replaced w/ stainless flex lines running to calipers. Auto meter gauges, 15 gallon fuel cell. All window, door, windshield and rear window seals have been replaced except 2 vent windows. New window fuzzies. I never got around to buying interior door handles but have original stainless trim pieces. Also never found a rear bumper and just made one out of 2x2 tubular steel when car was on jackstands.Also made custom front wheel well liners from newer car to eliminate rust above headlight pods. This car turns alot of heads. I did not build it to drive to a carshow and win awards. I built it to drive with minimal maintenance and run on regular unleaded fuel. I have aprox. 5000 miles on car since it was assembled. It also has BF Goodrich radial ta's mounted on Cragar superspoke wheels that are like new. This car fires right up, and drives great with no leaks. It is sold as is with no warranty, and buyer is responsible for pick up or shipping. Please feel free to ask me any questions about the car.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement. Scroll down to read the recall announcement from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration or download the full defect notice as a PDF, here.
Get a taste of Ford GT ownership from Dust Devils
Thu, Jan 1 2015It seems that the automotive world might be right on the cusp of getting some kind of follow-up to the Ford GT. It might not be called the GT or even use the coupe's retro look, but rumors point to such a beast being on the way. If the future halo model can inspire as much adoration among fans as the previous ones, then the Blue Oval is sure to have another winner on its hands. To get idea just how closely GT owners are bonded to their cars, take a ride with the participants in the ninth Ford GT National Rally in this short documentary titled Dust Devils. The owners convened with over 80 of the retro supercars in Las Vegas, NV, to admire the coupes and give them a workout on the desert roads. It's especially nice to see the drivers of these limited production Fords unafraid to take their cars to the track and stretch their legs a little.

The long, low-slung look is simultaneously menacing and lithe, and the growl from the latest model's supercharged V8 is nothing to complain about either. Get just the slightest taste of what it's like to have one of these halo Fords in this clip, from the people that love them the most.

President Trump to visit Michigan on Wednesday to attend auto-related event
Mon, Mar 13 2017President Trump will visit the Detroit area on Wednesday for the first time since taking office, the Detroit News reports this morning, to meet with officials of automakers, suppliers and unions, and to attend a rally of autoworkers. Trump might use the event to announce his intentions to roll back fuel-economy standards for cars and trucks. The automakers agreed to the standards, which set a goal of a fleet average 54.5 miles per gallon by the year 2025, under President Obama, but they have lobbied Trump to repeal them. "This is a continuation of a dialogue with the auto industry leaders, and also going back and reconnecting with a lot of the people who elected him," Chris Liddell told the News. Liddell is former chief financial officer of General Motors and now assistant to the president for strategic initiatives at the White House. Trump might also use Wednesday's visit to advocate the House Republicans' proposed replacement for the Affordable Care Act. Later Wednesday, he will attend a campaign-style rally in Nashville, and White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer has said the president intends to hit the road to sell the American public on the Obamacare replacement plan. The auto industry has been high on Trump's agenda - and a focus of his rhetoric to return manufacturing jobs and facilities to the United States. During his first week in office, Trump met privately at the White House with the CEOs of Ford, GM and Fiat Chrysler, and GM CEO and Chairman Mary Barra and Ford CEO Mark Fields are members of Trump economic advisory groups. He has criticized Ford and GM for making cars in Mexico and took credit when Ford scrapped plans for a new plant there.
