Up for auction in a 1964 or 1965 Ford Falcon body sitting on a International Scout 4x4 drive train. It's called a Ford-National. There is no title for the car or the 4x4 frame and is sold with a bill of sale only. I repeat there is no title and sold with bill of sale only. Vehicle is sold as is with no warranty.

I have driven it around the block and it runs and drives. The brakes need to be bleed. but if it ever warms up in the Mid-West I will try to do that. They work, but just need to be pumped like the Flintstones mobile to stop. The car runs good, but the carb really needs to be adjusted or rebuilt. It hates to idle and Again if it warms up I will tinker with that. It is a Holly 2-barrel. The motor runs off a bottle under the hood. The gas tank looks nice, but the fuel lines have not been run yet. The glass is good including the windshield and all the windows roll up and down. I have not been in the trunk yet and am looking for a key to get in. It has a 3-speed on the floor and shifts well. Use as a parts vehicle, Rat Rod or a mud runner, you make the call. I think it looks cool and is different and I purchased it for that reason. What you see is what it comes with and nothing else. It needs body work, tune up, interior work and who knows what else. That is all I know about the vehicle since I did not dive into it and just drove it up and down the block before loading it on a trailer. If it does not sell I may part it out, fix the mechanics and use as a mud runner or use as a rat rod. The options are endless since there is a blank canvas to start with. It will need tires also, the ones on it are cracked. If you have more questions please shoot me an email I work during the day and will get back to you in the evening.

Winning bidder to pay $300.00 by pay pal within 5 days of auction ending and vehicle can sit for 30 days if need to before pick-up. Balance to be paid by check, money order or cash before vehicle will be released.

Ford recalls 434k vehicles for several unrelated issues

Mon, 07 Apr 2014

It seems that the hard winter in much of the country has been as rough on some Fords as it has on many people. The Blue Oval is recalling roughly 434,000 vehicles in two separate recalls, and one of them partially caused by the salt used to melt the snow on roads.
The first recall covers 385,750 2001-2004 Escape models in the Midwest, Northeast and Canada because a subframe could rust and eventually fail. This is partially due to the road salt used in those areas, and about 349,000 of the affected vehicles are in the US. To remedy the problem, dealers are installing a reinforcement cross brace on the frame to strengthen them. There has been one crash caused by the failure but no injuries. According to The Detroit News, this is not the first rust-related recall for Ford. It estimates the company has repaired over two million vehicles since 2010 for problems on vehicles related to the iron oxide, including the rear wheel wells of the Freestar minivan.
The second recall covers 48,950 2013-2014 Ford Fusion, Escape, C-MAX and Lincoln MKZ models because welds in their seatbacks don't meet National Highway Traffic Safety Administration standards. The fault affects the front seats, and the sub-standard welds joining the setback to the recliner could increase the chance on injury. There have been no reported injuries or accidents caused by the problem, but there are 42,972 affected vehicles in the US and 4,744 in Canada.

2013 Shelby 1000 unleashes its 1,200 horsepower ahead of NY show reveal

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

True story: Last fall, I had the opportunity to spend a week with Ford's new 2013 Shelby GT500 - the Blue Oval's factory Mustang with 662 horsepower and 631 pound-feet of torque. It's an amazing beast, to be sure. I'm not sure if it was Michigan's damp streets strewn with potholes and wet leaves, but at no point did I ever say to myself, "You know, Ford is on to a really good thing here, but what it really needs is about twice the power." And yet, for people in warmer climes with infrastructure in better nick - or for those whose muscle cars live their lives out on the track, there's apparently sufficient demand to warrant just such a beast.
Quick studies will recall that Shelby American launched its 1000 last year to commemorate its 50th anniversary, but it is returning to the New York Auto Show with a fresh version based on the 2013 GT500 I drove. The 2013 Shelby 1000 whips up 1,200 horsepower on pump gas thanks to beefed-up forced induction, engine internals and cooling. Wisely, it also incorporates an adjustable suspension and big brake package to make sure those ponies have the best chance being safely deployed to the ground.
What price the world's most powerful "production" muscle car? $154,995 for starters - donor GT500 not included. What, no convertible variant?

Ford EcoBoost smashes records at Daytona

Thu, 10 Oct 2013

Some mighty machines have lapped the banks of the Daytona International Speedway over the years: thunderous V8-powered stock cars, Le Mans-conquering Group C prototypes, open-wheel Champ Cars, knee-dragging superbikes... heck, the infield lake has even hosted powerboat racing. But this - this is the fastest car ever to lap the legendary raceway.
What you're looking at is the new Daytona Prototype being prepared by Riley Technologies for the new United SportsCar Championship. The car, released just last week, is powered by a new 3.5-liter turbocharged V6 from Ford's EcoBoost family, and just obliterated the top speed at the track with a blistering 222.971 miles per hour through the traps.
That's enough to annihilate the previous record that was set, also under Ford power, by Bill Elliott while placing his Thunderbird on pole for the 1987 Daytona 500 that he would go on to win. His 210.364 mph record had stood for 26 years until now.
