This is an incredible nice original 80K mile Falcon Squire Wagon that I have been blessed to own the past 3-5 years. The car was restored to a really nice nice driver condition. Everything is nicely detailed including the new rebuilt 200 motor.
The motor... a ford 200 with a GM distrubutor ($500), chrome valve cover, large 9mm race wires, 2 bbl webber carb ($500) and clifford exhaust header ($400) that is chrome. The car runs really good on the highway and cruises the local streets with ease. Breathes really nice with the header and has plenty of get up and go with the 200 and the 2 bbl webber carb...The whole motor compartment was stripped and painted, and then the new power plant installed. Also updated it to an Alternator. Everything is show-n-go for the engine bay.
The interior... is all finished in two tone beige and wood accents. the back deck is a medium stained real wood deck and matched the interior perfect giving it a great beachy "woody" look. The front seats are high back 2012 Mustang Leather seats that are really comfortable...can be hooked up to be electric (currently not hooked up but easily done)...Has new custom carpet, new headliner, new door panels, new dash pad, new steering wheel. The interior was compleatly stripped and restored. New heater core installed too.
Exterior... Stripped and painted base/clear dark metallic green with an off white top. Then hand rubbed and buffed out to a high luster. It's a really nice paint job that has a couple small flaws in it from driving it to shows the past year or so, I mean small small flaws, but thought I would disclose them. All of the original Squire accents are present including the gas cap which is really hard to find. All squire badging is there and in really good shape.
The rear window is electric., it goes up and down with a switch in the dash...or by key. All of the glass in in great condition...and the front windsheild is new.
All weatherstripping is new., all window rubber, door jam weatherstripping etc....all the windows were removed when painting to get the best detail possible...then the car was put back together. The detail is really nice on this car.
I have had nothing but joy with this Squire Wagon and the new owner will do nothing but have joy when they own it.
Details...
- I have some extras that come with the car...a couple surf boards, a hula hule girl for the dash
- AM/FM/CD stereo is mounted in the glove box with a bass mounted in the spare tire area giving a nice rich sound.
- Custom console
All in all this car needs nothing but a garage to live in. The 2 speed transmission does the job., but if I was to keep the car, I would install an early c-4 as they are more up to date.
If you have any questions on this Squire Wagon, don't hesitate to call., or if you would like more photos of the motor area (completely detailed) and or interior don't hesitate to ask. I will entertain offers too.
Car is also for sale locally here in Sacramento., although if there are bids and they are close to my asking price I will let the listing ride. But I do reserve the right to pull the listing if is sells locally. If I get around to listing it local.
Thanks., Guy 916-549-1088

Honda giving away free Civics in Forza Horizon to celebrate launch
Wed, 16 Jan 2013Just a friendly reminder from Honda: The Honda Challenge Pack DLC is now available for Forza Horizon. To reward you for the trouble of pressing a few buttons on your Xbox controller, you'll get the 2013 Honda Civic Coupe, an HPD Rally Fit and a 1986 Honda Civic Si Coupe in your garage, and you'll get them free. The event of the new DLC has also kicked off a photo contest that will reward someone with an Xbox 360 console wrapped in a Honda Civic Si theme.
Otherwise, the word "Challenge" keeps coming up because of the chance to run an online race against IndyCar driver Scott Dixon. The track for that digital throwdown has already been decided by Xbox players who voted before January 8. Yet it's not too late to hop into the Honda section in Xbox Live and lay down a time fast enough for a shot at the title "The Driver That Shellacked Scott Dixon," and meeting the man in person.
Check out the press release from Honda below, and the sweetness that is the 1986 Civic Si in the gallery above.
Ford updates Power Stroke diesel V8, strengthens F-450, tweaks King Ranch
Thu, 26 Sep 2013Ford is giving its F-Series Super Duty trucks some upgrades for 2015, and we're happy to say that one of them is an improved Power Stroke diesel V8. Also, Ford is strengthening the top-of-the-line F-450 to handle more abuse. And if wild west-style luxury is your thing, the automaker has performed minor cosmetic updates to its King Ranch Edition trucks, as well.
The turbocharged 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 is currently rated at 400 horsepower and 800 pound-feet of torque, and Ford only tells us the new and improved Power Stroke can "produce power beyond today's" engine. What, then, did Ford actually improve upon? First, the Blue Oval swapped in a new, larger turbocharger. The new Garrett GT37 turbine unit is 72.5 millimeters in diameter, eclipsing the old GT32's 64-mm diameter piece. Ford states output increases with the new turbo setup, but since the new turbocharger operates at a lower peak pressure than the old one, the automaker was able to eliminate the wastegate system and reduce the engine's complexity. Ford even redesigned the turbo's oil and cooling lines to make the powerplant simpler. A byproduct of the larger turbo is better engine exhaust braking, which is controlled manually by a button on the dashboard.
Ford claims the upgraded diesel engine is more powerful, more robust, more efficient and more refined than before.
Ford reports $3B profit in Q4, $6.9B for the year
Tue, 28 Jan 2014Good news out of Dearborn today, as Ford announced $3 billion in profit for the last quarter of 2013, a 90-percent increase over the same period of 2012. Net income for all of last year, meanwhile, jumped to $7.2 billion from $5.7 billion in 2012, while pre-tax profits sat at a decade-topping $6.9 billion for all of 2013.
The results of the substantial profit increases are bigger profit-sharing checks for UAW employees. How big? A record $8,800 on average for 47,000 UAW workers, making 2013 the biggest year for profit sharing in Ford history. In total, $414 million will be paid as part of the profit-sharing scheme.
Now, it should be pointed out that a fair portion of Ford's Q4 profits were due to tax benefits, totaling $2.1 billion, according to Automotive News. Total profits would have also been higher, had there not been a significant recall on the Escape, as well as plant issues in South America.
