This is a 1968 Falcon Sport Coupe.  The cars original suspension has been removed and replaced by a mustang II font end with coil over shocks and sway bar with rack and pinion steering.  The rear leaf springs have been removed and replaced by a pro ladder bar suspension with coil over shocks and adjustable ride height as well as a track bar.  The fuel tank has been removed and a 12 gallon fuel cell installed in the trunk.  The battery has also been relocated to the trunk.  The wiring harness has been replaced by a kwik harness.  The original motor and trans were replaced by a 429 built motor and a C6 built trans with a 2500 stall converter.  This motor puts out right at 590hp to the flywheel.  It has a comp cam and valve train, electric water pump, Weiand intake, demon 850 carb, HEI distributor with Taylor wires, and Sanderson headers.  The fuel system is 6AN stainless  line from the holley electric pump to the carburetor.  The exhaust is flowmaster.  The drive shaft is custom built as well and hooks to a 9" rear with a nascar 410 diff.  The brakes are aluminum 4 wheel disc SSBC calipers and slotted rotors with power brakes.  The emergency brake (Lokar) has been relocated to the center hump between the seats.  The shifter has been relocated to the floor and is a B&M slap shifter.  The dash has been fiberglassed and  3 gauges added to the  center of it.  All gauges are autometer.  The interior is all new reupholstered seats and side panels.  There is a new headliner too.  The carpet and kick panels are new. That is the good.  Now the not so good.  The brake lines will need to be replaced due to contamination.  I do have all new stainless lines that go with it.  The emergency brake works but needs adjustment.  There is some rust under the front cowl where the air ducts were.  The wiper components have been removed.  The body is in descent shape for its age with a little rust.  Most of the rust is around the trunk where the seal goes.  The back roll pan also has some rust where the rear bumper goes.  The hood is fiberglass and needs hinges or hood locks to mount it.  The dash will need a little more fiberglass work to the finish to complete it.  The engine runs great, but the carb needs to be rebuilt.  The trans shifts great.  The rear axle splines and bearings are all new.  The floor pans have been replaced and painted with POR15.  There is a set of front 5 point DOT seat belts that will need to be installed.  I love this car, but my financial state is forcing me to sale it.  I have over 15k invested in this car.  These vehicles are very hard to find.  The only part missing is the rear bumper.  I have more pictures if needed.

Watch a drone try to land in back of a moving 2015 Ford F-150 at night

Fri, Apr 3 2015

Automotive stunts don't always have to make sense; they just have to look cool. Does it really prove anything about the bed lighting in the 2015 Ford F-150 to attempt to land a drone back there while driving at night? Probably not, but Ford Canada wants to find out anyway, because the trick looks good on film. Chris Bacik is an expert at flying drones and even builds his own to use for his aerial cinematography company. As Ford Canada's very serious narrator intones, the question now is whether he can use those piloting skills to land on a moving F-150 in the dark. To make things even harder, the night of the stunt is quite windy. Even if the video demonstrates little about the truck's capabilities, it's fun to see if Bacik can do accomplish the feat.

Rivian R1T, Mini Cooper Electric owners happiest with their EVs

Tue, Feb 28 2023

The J.D. Power 2023 U.S. Electric Vehicle Experience (EVX) Ownership Study is out, and there's change at the top. With the swelling adoption of electric vehicles in the U.S. over in the past two years especially, the third year of the EVX study changes focus to first-time EV buyers. Those two factors encouraged change at the top of both premium and mass-market segments. Among premium EVs, the Rivian R1T pickup scored overall victory in its first year of eligibility with a satisfaction score of 794 out of 1,000. The Tesla Model 3 takes second place with 759 points. Tesla had won the top two premium spots in the study in 2021 and in 2022. The average score in the premium segment was 756. The Tesla Model Y (754), Audi E-Tron (735), and Polestar 2 (724) filled out the list of the five eligible models this year. Among the ten eligible mass-market vehicles, the Mini Cooper Electric nabbed the overall win by scoring 782. The Kia EV6 came second with 762 points, keeping Kia in the top two; the Kia Niro EV won the mass-market segment the previous two years. The Ford Mustang Mach-E (742), Hyundai Ioniq 5 (738), and Volkswagen ID.4 (735) completed the top five, the Niro EV (733) in sixth. All were above the segment average of 730. The four models fell below the segment average were the Ford F-150 Lightning (723), Chevrolet Bolt EUV (716), Chevrolet Bolt (711), and Nissan Leaf (698). How are the scores derived? J.D. Power worked with EV app maker and research firm PlugShare to get owner responses in ten areas: accuracy of stated battery range; availability of public charging stations; battery range; cost of ownership; driving enjoyment; ease of charging at home; interior and exterior styling; safety and technology features; service experience; and vehicle quality and reliability. Brent Gruber, executive director of the EV practice at J.D. Power, said, "Recent vehicle launches from both new brands and traditional automakers have had a profound effect on what factors are most important in the ownership experience. Today’s EV owners are looking for quality, reliability, driving enjoyment, safety and technology features." The Mini, in fact, scored highest of any premium and mass-market EV in the studyÂ’s highest-weighted index factor, quality and reliability.
