1957 Ford Ranchero on 2040-cars
Myrtle Creek, Oregon, United States
Up for auction I have my 57 Ford Ranchero. I have decided not to build the car and expand my small business. This is the nicest body That I have found in 30 years for building. The car has been stripped to bare metal sealed and primered. The only body damage besides maybe a few dings is the passenger rocker panel that will need to be replaced. It has very MINIMAL rust. A little in the lip of the passenger rear wheel well. Small amount in the rear floor pans. The transmission tunnel has been cut up for some kind of shifter but I have another trans tunnel for it that just needs trimmed and welded in. The underneath of the fender eyebrows all of these areas they make reproductions for. The complete underneath bed area is absolutely nice and no rust, this also means the spare tire area. The tailgate and doors are solid. The front clip doors and tailgate have been removed for ease of work on the car. I can bolt back on temporarily for transport if needed. The vehicle has custom weld wheels and radial tires. Many parts including hood hinges and core support have been powder coated. I believe I have almost all the trim with the exception of a couple pieces of side chrome. I have all of the stainless that goes around the bed. and that's the hard part to find if missing. Other pieces are easy to find. Now here is whats missing on the car. The front windshield, radiator, seat, gauges, radio, gas tank, and drive line. and of course engine and transmission. But I do have available but NOT included is a Running Mercury 312 YBlock A Heavy Duty large shaft C4 transmission, a Beautiful custom upholstered split bench seat That came out of a 57 ford 2 door hardtop that was a show car and he decided to go to buckets. I also have a front end rebuild kit power break conversion and as I said before NOT INCLUDED but avalible. The pictures are small if you give me your email address by breaking it in code if not ebay wont send the message and I can send larger pictures to you. If you need additional pictures or have any questions. feel free to ask. The car is sitting at my father in laws In Sutherlin Oregon The car is being sold AS IS WHERE IS.

2014 Ford Transit Connect Taxi hopes to fare thee well
Mon, 23 Sep 2013New York City may have selected its taxi of tomorrow, but there are still plenty of municipalities across the US with citizens that depend on yellow livery cars to get them across town in a jiffy. That's why Ford is going ahead with this, the new Transit Connect Taxi.
Based on the 2014 Transit Connect, the TC Taxi boasts a number of features designed to make the compact van appeal to discerning taxi drivers and their fares, with the most notable upgrade being a standardized prep package to convert the 2.5-liter four to run on liquefied petroleum or compressed natural gas. The clean-burning fuel options will allow operators to save on fuel costs and cut down on pollution without sacrificing performance.
A lower load floor and a new twist-beam rear suspension are meant to improve the riding experience for passengers, while the longer 2014 Transit Connect sports extra cargo space as well. In addition to the CNG/LPG conversion, the Transit Connect Taxi can also be easily modified for wheelchair access. Drivers, meanwhile, will have access to optional goodies like Sync with MyFord Touch and a rear-view camera.
NHTSA investigating Ford's solution to May 2014 power steering recall
Tue, Apr 7 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating a complaint that Ford's response to a May 2014 recall of the 2008 to 2011 Ford Escape and Mercury Mariner doesn't quite go far enough to solve a troubling power-steering problem. Roughly a year ago, Ford recalled nearly a million vehicles after it was found that a problem with the torque sensor's communication with the power steering control module could cut steering assistance for drivers. While manual steering would still be available, the problem was enough to ask drivers to report in to have the PSCM inspected, and if necessary, replaced (along with the torque sensor, or in dramatic cases, the entire steering column). That would only happen, though, if trouble codes were being thrown. If there weren't any problems, dealers were told to simply update the PSCM's software so that any issues between it and the torque sensor would simply throw a visual and audio warning – power steering would still be maintained. The petitioner claimed that following the recall work, he still experienced a problem with the torque sensor. According to NHTSA, a claim was made that Ford didn't go far enough in its solution to the problem, and that "the software update itself may in fact cause further issues with the affected vehicle's power steering, causing it to fail, and ultimately requiring replacement of the torque sensor or entire steering column." The petition was filed in early February and is now officially being looked into by NHTSA.
Can an actual Ford F-150 ride on 4 Power Wheels F-150s?
Tue, Dec 9 2014A lot of kids are rough on their toys, especially when it comes to those made to be used outside, like a four-wheeled kid-size Power Wheels. Whether it's cruising through the sand box, carrying piles of rocks in the driveway or crashing around trees in the backyard, these motorized vehicles often take punishment from the moment the giftwrap comes off. The folks at Fisher-Price decided to give their latest F-150 Power Wheels a true torture test worse than any kid could have ever managed by setting a real 2015 Ford F-150 on top of four of them. Would the little toy trucks explode in a shower of plastic shards in a massive collapse, and if not, could they drive away afterwards? The latest F-150 might be 700 pounds lighter thanks to the switch to aluminum, but it's still a fullsize pickup. According to this clip, the truck weighs in at 4,120 pounds, which puts an average of 1,030 pounds on each of the toys. Check out the video above to see how the stunt goes, and click on the gallery below for some behind-the-scenes looks at the setup.
