1963 Ford Falcon 2 Door Hardtop (Futura) 1963 Ford Falcon 2 Door hardtop (Futura) This “No Expense Spared” pro touring/restomod build is brought to you by Sixties Muscle Motorsports in Rancho Cordova, California. This meticulous build was completed over the last two years as a shop project to showcase the work that Sixties Muscle Motorsports produces. We started with an absolutely rust free 1963 Ford Falcon 2 door hardtop Futura that we bought in central California. Over 300 hours were put into paint and bodywork alone. Then we transformed this beauty into a pro-touring beast complete with an Eight stack fuel injected 331 stroker, TCI Streetfighter AOD, coil-over suspension front and rear, 4 wheel disc brakes, 9” rear- end, Fuel Safe fuel cell, and the list goes on. Then we rewired the whole car with an American Autowire kit, VHX gauges, Vintage Air A/C, power locks, power windows, remote start alarm, retrosound stereo with amp and subwoofer and so on. We also upgraded the entire interior with new carpet, dynamat, new seat covers, custom one piece headliner with sail panels, custom door panels, custom center console, and a complete custom vinyl trunk kit just to list off some of the stuff we did. We took this car to the 21st Annual Mustangs and Fords car show here in Rancho Cordova in June. We won 1st place in our class as well as Best of Show Interior, Best of Show Engine, and Best of Show Non-Mustang. Then we took the car to the 2017 Falcon Club of America National Meet and the car was a class winner even though we showed up after most people voted already. Over $100K was invested in this gorgeous pro-touring build (over $60K just in parts). I have a majority of the receipts still as well. Feel free to check out the full description below, all the pics, and the videos. Don’t hesitate to call me with any questions! I can possibly assist a buyer with getting the vehicle delivered to anywhere in the continental U.S. Thanks!

Regulatory measures primarily in reference with trade and followed by ecological protection. Trade protectionism curtails the threat of substitution by way of import quotas and tariffs, administrative barriers and subsidies. Government subsidies have reached millions of dollars, Australia AUD1966M, Germany 1303M and 2908M in America. In the category of environment protection, the Energy and Conservation Act of 1975 costs roughly USD 2000 on compliance per manufactured unit. These aside the high cost on advertising, development research and labour unrest; dampen production locations burdened by overcapacity: Germany and Italy, France and Australia, USA and Japan. In a fragmented value chain stretching across multiple industries, manufacturers thinly spread as production entails specialty knowledge and expensive tools. No single company controlling enough market shares to influence world industry decisions that might induce radical industry transitions. Many outfits close shop over prolonged business slowdown. Death of 80 year old National Treasure Ford Falcon Territory 2016 is a decision to end all losses over the past five years for the amount of 600 million dollars with 23 percent coming off 2012 fiscal year.

  • 1975 Dekon Monza
    1975 DeKon Monza Chassis 1005 History DeKon Monza Chassis 1005 was finished in June 1975. However, the story of DeKon 1005 begins a decade before the car was built. The story of this, and all the DeKon Monza’s, is the story of the intertwined lives of Allan Moffat, Lee Dykstra, and Horst Kwech. Allan Moffat was born on November 10. 1939. Moffat was born in Canada, but his family moved to South Africa. Moffat was educated in Johannesburg. In 1960, the Moffat family moved to Australia. Australia suited Moffat well, and he remains there in Melbourne. Moffat attempted develop a career in auto racing in Australia. By 1964, he believed his career would be best served by spending some time in the United States. “So he went to North America and began associating himself with racing teams and future sponsors …” Peter Ford, “Moffat! From the Beginning”, Chequered Flag, December 1970. Horst Kwech was born in Gosford, Australia in 1938. In 1963, Kwech moved to the Chicago, Illinois in the United States. Like Moffat, Kwech moved to the U.S. to pursue a career in auto racing. Both drivers achieved some success in the U.S.. However, it was in the SCCA Trans American Sedan Championship that they showed surprising form. On March 25, 1966, Kwech finished fifth overall the first ever Trans Am race. Kwech achieved this result despite driving in the under two-liter class in an Alfa Romeo GTA. In the next Trans Am race, Kwech finished second overall and first in class. The third Trans Am race was the Bryar 250 on July 8, 1966.

  • (SDE) Via Augmented Reality and Additive Manufacturing
    Article An Innovative Ford Sedan with Enhanced Stylistic Design Engineering (SDE) via Augmented Reality and Additive Manufacturing Leonardo Frizziero , Gian Maria Santi , Giampiero Donnici , Christian Leon-Cardenas * , Patrich Ferretti, Alfredo Liverani and Marco Neri Department of Industrial Engineering, Alma Mater Studiorum University of Bologna, 40136 Bologna, Italy; [email protected] (L.F.); [email protected] (G.M.S.); [email protected] (G.D.); [email protected] (P.F.); [email protected] (A.L.); [email protected] (M.N.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The design of an E segment, executive, midsize sedan car was chosen to fill a gap in the market of the Ford brand and to achieve the goal of innovation looking towards the future. Ford has not owned an E-segment flagship sports sedan for years, since the historic 1960s Falcon. Starting from the latter assumption and considering that the major car manufacturers are currently investing heavily in E-segment cars, it is important to design a new model, which has been called the Eagle. This model proposed here is to fill the gap between Ford and other companies that are already producing sport cars for the electric sector and to complete Ford’s proposal. The presented methodology is based on SDE, on which many design tools are implemented, such as Quality Function Deployment (QFD), Benchmarking (BM), and Top Flop Analysis (TPA). A market analysis follows in order to Citation: Frizziero, L.; Santi, G.M.; identify the major competitors and their key characteristics considering style and technology. The Donnici, G.; Leon-Cardenas, C.; results are used to design an innovative car.
