 Two 1962 Falcon Rancheros   Black car has a 289 v-8 with a 4 spd. trans and 9" rear.  Engine runs and trans. shifted fine when I drove car here several years ago.  Brakes were bad then and still are.  The 289 ran well with no unusual noises or knocks.  It has old finned aluminum  Edelbrock valve covers, aluminum Edelbrock intake and carb. It also has headers and newer dual exhaust with turbo mufflers.  The rear quarters are solid as are the rocker panels and all around tailgate area.  The shock towers and core support are solid also.  It will need floors all around.  I also have with this car a nice front fender (blasted and coated) and a nice door (blasted and coated) to replace the damaged ones on the car.  I also have a partial rear floor section and a partial front inner fender panel with battery cove and box of you wish to use them.   The red and silver car is a body and tube steel frame only.  It has a tube steel frame welded in place to build a gasser/ prostreet or??(nicely done).   This car comes with a 1969 429 Ford v-8 engine.  (apart minus oil pan and intake).The body shows evidence of earlier rust repair with metal welded in place There are no floors for this car.  Body work on outside looks presentable.  It includes fenders, doors, hood and bumpers.  Also included with this package is a new Crites fiberglass teardrop style hood and fiberglass front bumper. A new  fiberglass shifter cover is also with the car.  The windshield and back window are good on the red car but the windshield is bad on the black car but the back window is good.  We have 2 extra grilles, extra headlight rings and 2 boxes of misc. parts. Included also is a hard to find Ranchero fuel tank (blasted and coated but has some pin holes)  Also included is a pair if nice 64 or 65 black Mustang bucket seats. Bring a big truck and take it all for one price!!   I also have Titles for both cars.  It seems what may be a little rough on one car is good on the other so one pretty nice car can be built out of the pair with extra stuff left over to sell.  I will cooperate in any way I can and assist somewhat in loading all but you will need to provide the heavy labor.  Both cars need total restoration and are being sold as is where is with no warrantys.   A $500.00 non refundable deposit will be required within 24 hours of close of auction.  The balance due before or when picking up cars.  If payment is made with check or money order of any type sufficient time will be required for clearing before picking up vehicles.  A direct bank transfer is  the best way

Ford increasing Super Duty production by 15 percent

Fri, 31 Jan 2014

Ford has announced a hefty $80 million investment in its Kentucky Truck Plant, which is responsible for building the F-250, F-350, F-450 and F-550 versions of the Super Duty pickup. The influx of cash will add 350 jobs to the factory.
The investment is also good for a 15-percent increase in annual production thanks to retooling and other facility upgrades, which equates to an extra 55,000 units of production. Considering that Ford makes even more money off its Super Duty than it does on the hot-selling F-150, this could mean some serious coin to Ford's bottom line.
Hop below for the full press release from Ford on its latest investment.

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs

Mon, 11 Mar 2013

It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.

Ford worker files for UAW dues refund, stirs right-to-work debate

Sun, 24 Aug 2014

Let's start with some history: Ford's Dearborn truck plant, part of the company's massive River Rouge complex, was the center of a strike in 1941 that led to Ford signing the first "closed shop" agreement in the industry. The agreement obliged every worker at the plant to be a dues-paying member of the United Auto Workers. In December 2012, however, Michigan Governor Rick Snyder signed legislation making Michigan a right-to-work state, which outlawed closed shops. The new law gave workers the right to opt out of union membership and stop paying dues even if they were still covered by union activities like collective bargaining. For employees at the Dearborn plant, the right-to-work clauses take effect at the end of their current contract in 2015.
As a tool-and-die maker at Ford's Dearborn plant for 16 years, Todd Lemire pays dues to the UAW - about two hours' salary per month. However, he's been unhappy with the UAW's support of the Democratic party, and not wanting to wait until next year to be out of the UAW entirely he invoked his Beck Rights, which state that a non-member of a union does not have to pay dues to support non-core activities, such as political spending. But Lemire wasn't happy that Ford still subtracted the total amount of dues, with the UAW reimbursing the difference, so he filed suit with the National Labor Relations Board, feeling that the workaround violates his rights.
Lemire's case is just a week old, so it could be a while before a resolution. Yet, as September 15, 2015 draws near and the right-to-work laws take full effect for Michigan workers - and others wonder whether it could help revitalize the state's manufacturing base - a case like this adds more fuel to the discussion.
