1965 Ford Falcon, Futura. The car was originally a 6 cylinder automatic (H) code. The car was last registered for the road, in New Jersey, in 1990. The car was disassembled by the previous owner in 2008. The previous owner also started to chemically strip the paint on the rear quarter panels and then lost interest. I purchased the car with the idea of making it into a drag car. I was most impressed by the lack of rust on the inner fenders and fire wall. As far as the body goes the doors are rust free, even on the bottom edge, the front fenders are rust free, the trunk is rust free, the hood is 95% rust free and the rockers are rust free, the roof is rust free also. The bottom of the rear quarter panels had metal put in and the body work was pretty good until the previous owner tried to strip them. The drivers floor pan was patched with sheet metal so its solid but does not look original and the torque boxes need repair. The passenger floor pan has a small area that needs repair and the rear pans are solid. I have all of the glass although one door window glass is broken, the front bumper is straight and looks OK depending on what you plan to do with the car. The rear bumper has some surface rust and a dent that appears easily repaired by a chrome shop. Although it appears most of the trim pieces are there I can't locate the body side trim.

I put this car "loosly" together in about an hour and got the body lines pretty close. With some serious attention the car could pretty straight. It does not appear to have ever been in a serious accident. This car is being sold as a project car. There is some rust, but over all, its a solid car to have some fun with as a race car or rat rod. The original seats are in the car and are in good shape with no tears or mouse nests. I will deliver this car within a 200 mile radius of Carlisle, Pa. for $1.25 per mile. The price is $1,500.00. This is a great project with out getting into a high dollar muscle car. Check out multiple pictures and other services at Tannersclassics.com. The car is offered for sale locally, I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

Ford announces bevy of recalls, 2 of which are recalls on recalls

Tue, 04 Nov 2014

Ford has announced five separate recalls, affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
It's not been a great couple of weeks for Ford. On October 30, the company announced a 205,000-unit recall, and yesterday, it was revealed that the Ford brand's year-over-year sales were down over 5,000 units while the company itself was down 3,000 units over through October. Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.

Ford bringing production F-150 to Detroit with Atlas styling and Alcoa blast shields

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

According to a report in Bloomberg, the 2015 Ford F-150 will indeed be showing up at the Detroit Auto Show next month. It will bring attitude with it, not only in the form of sheetmetal inspired by the Atlas concept (pictured) that appeared at the 2013 Detroit show but also in the Alcoa military blast shields among the display being used to showcase the ruggedness of aluminum.
There's been a lot of talk about the F-150 switching to aluminum body panels (although maintaining a steel frame), and for good reason. The lightweight body is expected to shed more than 700 pounds and greatly increase its highway mileage, but production-line issues and possible delays have been a major focus of attention concerning the best-selling vehicle in America for 32 years, meaning Ford has to get it right. F-150 is responsible for a massive portion of the company's global profits and it will come in a year when company profits are already predicted to decline because of new car launches.
When it comes to dings, the Bloomberg story says Ford wants Alcoa to supply some of the military-grade aluminum it uses for blast shields on battlefield vehicles to help it talk up the toughness of aluminum. Reading commentary on the many stories about the F-150 reveals there are many more little questions about the aluminum overhaul, like "How much will it cost to repair and insure?" and "How will companies hang their magnetic signs?" Answers should start coming in a couple of weeks.

Is that the Ford GT Le Mans racer in the background of this Forza video?

Mon, Jan 26 2015

Shortly after the reveal of the new Ford GT in Detroit a couple of weeks ago, Microsoft announced that it was putting the new American supercar on the cover of the upcoming sixth installment of the Forza Motorsport video game series. Now it has put out a video of the process of digitizing Dearborn's latest. Whether you're into Detroit steel (or carbon fiber and aluminum in this case), exotic supercars or video games, the video is worth a watch in and of itself. But our eyes were focused on something else. In the background of one shot (around the 1:49 mark) you can see a design board with renderings of what looks to be the rumored racing version of the GT – complete with reshaped air intakes, deeper side sills, a bigger rear wing and a central rear fin like you'd find on the latest LMP1 racing prototypes. It wouldn't be the first time we've caught wind of the prospect of the Blue Oval's new supercar going racing. We first heard of the plans last October, further reinforced in December with reports of the new GT coming to Detroit. And as we reported just a couple of weeks ago following the supercar's reveal, a return to Le Mans could be in the cards Â– which would be fortuitous timing, since next year will mark the 50th anniversary of the original GT40 scoring its landmark 1-2-3 finish in the 24-hour race.
