1967 Mexican Ford Falcon Coupe on 2040-cars

Here is a 1967 ford Falcon 2 door sedan. it was built in mexico using the same tooling that they used in the us, so although the registration year is a 69 the body style is 67. it also has the Mexican 289 in it that is supposed to be a lot stronger then the regular ford small blocks. i haven't been able to find out either way, i have read that they can easily support 800-1000hp and i have also read they it was just a ploy to bump up value. i have no idea, either way i need the car gone. it has spent at least the last ten or so years in the high desert of California and has new drum brakes and that about it. it has very little rust but the body does need a bit of work. the engine turns smoothly about 15 deg or so then stops fairly hard, this is good because its prime for a rebuild and bad because you have to rebuild it. the 3 speed transmission "three on the tree" needs to have the linkage redone. it is sitting on original cragars and they are pretty clean except for some light surface rust, one is slightly bent and there is one cap missing. This car has all of the original A/C pieces. i doubt they work but its all there. so even if you have the space and time to part this car out you can pretty easily double your money. i have neither, unfortunately i have to sell this car. falcon coupes are super rare, and Mexican ones at that. yes i know that the VIN reads its a 68 mustang made in mexico, i dont know what to tell you. thats just what it says, if you can find a breakdown that says different please tell me! thanks!

New UAW boss Williams talks tough, vows 'no more concessions'

Sun, 08 Jun 2014

Dennis Williams, the newly elected president of the UAW, had some tough words for American automakers in his inauguration speech at the 2014 UAW Convention, striking down the possibility of any additional concessions from the 400,000-strong union.
"No more concessions. We are tired of it. Enough is enough," Williams said during his speech. UAW employees have not received a raise in nearly 10 years, according to Reuters.
Considering the recent strong results for Ford, Chrysler and General Motors, the union's demands are likely to carry a bit more weight in next year's negotiations. And considering Williams' tough stance, we could be in for some fireworks once negotiations commence.

Detroit 3 small cars lay an egg in latest Consumer Reports reliability study

Tue, 28 Oct 2014

Consumer Reports has released its Annual Auto Reliability Survey and the results are, in a word, interesting. While we already covered the score-damaging effects of infotainment systems, there's another big angle to the data that's getting some attention - the utterly dismal scores of the Detroit Three's small car offerings.
The turbocharged Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Cruze, as well as the Ford Fiesta were their respective brands' lowest-scoring models, a stat that's made worse by the fact that the American automakers finished 25th, 21st and 23rd, respectively.
That's not acceptable for The Detroit Free Press' auto critic, Mark Phelan, who has penned a scathing critique of the D3's small car reliability scores, arguing that GM, Ford and Chrysler are "out of excuses."

2014 Ford Transit unveiled in Chassis Cab and Cutaway versions

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

As a leader in commercial vehicles here in the US, we knew Ford wouldn't take too long to show off the chassis cab and cutaway versions of its 2014 Ford Transit van. Set to go on sale this fall, Ford already revealed the full-body version of the Transit, and now it has pulled the cover off exposed-frame models just in time to to compete against the all-new Ram Promaster.
The term "chassis cab" refers to models with a fully enclosed cabin used for box vans or rental trucks, while cutaway models leave the cabin open behind the B-pillars for a pass-through on vehicles such as Class C motorhomes or ambulances. Both will offer three wheelbase options (138, 156 and 178 inches), the choice of single or dually rear axles, and plenty of upfitter-friendly touches including a pre-wired body harness and multiple body mount locations.
The new design will also help make upfitting a little easier since the fuel filler is now built into the cab (just behind the driver's door). Those integrated fuel filler necks will serve to feed either a 3.7-liter V6, a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, or a 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel. Transit chassis cab and cutaways will wear varying Gross vehicle weight ratings from 9,000 pounds to 10,360 pounds depending on spec.
