You are looking at a restored 1961 Ford Falcon 2 door sedan. This car has been mechanically and costmetically restored by the owner. The owner is a very good friend of mine, I am helping him sell it, he has no computer skills. He has owned this car for almost 40 years, he bought it when he was 15, it was his first car. Over the years, it has been built into an incredible muscle car. It looks, runs, and drives mint! Here is a list of what has been done to the car:
Engine:
302 Windsor engine, completely re-built by local machine shop, bored .30 over to 306 cubic inches. Crankshaft was cut, chamfered, polished, and rotating assembly was fully ballanced! TRW forged pistons, 10:1 compression ratio, runs on pump gas. Chrome moly rings, Lunati hydraulic cam and lifters, High volume oil pump, Adjustable rockers, 351 Windsor heads, completely re-built, ported and polished, three angle valve job, Manley valves, screw in studs with guide plates, hardened push rods, double roller timing chain. Edelbrock Torquer intake manifold, 600 Holley dual feed, double pumper, Mallory ignition, Accell electronic distributor, 351 exhaust manifolds (jet hot coated), custom dual exhaust with turbo mufflers. Everything on the engine is proffesionally powdercoated, and it looks awesome. You could eat off of this motor. The motor has about 5000 miles on it since it was re-built and installed in the car. It runs awesome!
Drivetrain:
4 speed manual transmission, completely rebuilt, all steel bellhousing, 11 1/2" high performance clutch and flywheel, completely re-built 3:55 ratio, limited slip rear axle.
Misc:
Converted to 1 wire chrome alternator, battery was re-located to trunk, has new 3 core heavy duty radiator with electric fans, new Edelbrock aluminum water pump, has dual master cylinder with all new re-built drum brakes front and rear. Drive shaft has high performance u-joints and was speed ballanced. All 4 tires are new, high performance radials.
Suspension:
Completely re-done with all new ball joints, all new control arm bushings, heavy duty coil springs, heavy duty leaf springs, all new shocks!
Interior:
The owner spent over $5000 and had the interior completely re-finished by Top Stitch Upholstery Inc. They did all new seats, door panels, kick panels, carpets, headliner, everything. The dash board and the tops of the doors were all re-painted in basecoat clearcoat, and look better than new. The floor pans were coated in bedliner spray, and look perfect under the carpets.
Body:
The owner of this car owns a body shop and has been painting cars since he was a teenager. This car was stripped down to bare metal and completely re-finished. The body is laser straight, and looks better than new. The paint is DuPont basecoat/ clearcoat and it looks awesome. The color is called Corinthian White. I could not find one flaw in it, and it shines like new. It has color coded bumpers, and grille. The tail lights, door handles, emblems, were powdercoated also.
This car is a turn-key muscle car that is ready for somone to drive and enjoy. I drove it myself, and it runs and drives amazing. It rides great, and has plenty of power for such a light car. It is lots of fun! It hits the road great, and sounds good too. It's not too loud with the turbo mufflers, but it has a nice rumble! It needs nothing! I would be happy to show anyone the car, please e-mail me and we will set it up.

Ford worker files for UAW dues refund, stirs right-to-work debate
Sun, 24 Aug 2014Let'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.
Ford gets its Movement on, releases 'Sounds of Focus' tracks
Sun, 25 May 2014Ford has, for at least the second year in a row, teamed up with techno promoter Paxahau and a couple of artists to make music in recognition of the Detroit Movement music festival. This time, Movement performers Ataxia and Secrets were selected by Ford, and were invited to spend some time at the automaker's Michigan Assembly Plant, which gives birth to the Ford Focus and Focus Electric models.
Now that we know the what, how about the why? According to Ford, "Detroit is uniquely tied to the origins of the electronic music scene. In the 1980's variations of electronic music stemmed from inspirations of industry, including the automotive sector." So, there you go. If you're interest is piqued, feel free to read the press release, watch the video and listen to the tracks below.
Ford Everest Concept shows China also has an affinity for big trucks
Mon, 21 Apr 2014The Ford Everest Concept SUV at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show shows the future of the Blue Oval's truck line in China. While a concept for now, we're told that JMC, Ford's Chinese joint-venture partner, will build a production version sometime in the near future.
With design from Ford's Asia Pacific design team, the handsome seven-passenger SUV shows off some very muscular styling with wraparound headlights that hook into the contours of the angular trapezoidal grille. The beltline rises up the body in the rear and makes the back appear higher than the front. The rear is made from hard, chiseled contours that give the truck a very tough look. The Everest looks ready for some rough roads.
Ford is keeping the interior and mechanical details about the Everest a secret for now, but the SUV is rumored to share some components with the overseas Ranger pickup. The company has no plans to sell the truck in North America. Scroll down to read the official announcement, including the few details on its production.
