A nice 1967 Ford Fairlane 500 XL Ranchero, Red exterior with Black interior. Bucket seats with console and automatic shifter on the console. It has a 289 V8 2 barrell carb with dual exhaust. It comes with a trailer hitch, and rear air shocks. The vehicle needs some love and attention. The red paint is faded, and the chrome in need of some elbow grease. I have had the vehicle for 17 years and drove it as my daily driver for the first few years I owned it. For the most part the body is in great shape, all straight sheet metal, only one minor spot of rust (see pics) and the chrome bumpers are straight. The tailight rings on the rear have a few dimples in them (see pics) as does the front grille piece (see pics). The drivers seat has a tear on the top left corner of the seat back (see pics). The dash board has cracks in it from sitting out in the sun. This car has sat out in the open for many years as you can tell by the faded paint. I have tried to show pictures of all the areas of the car, especially with the defects listed above in them. The engine has not been started in 3 years and I think I might have dropped a push rod when I shut it off last time. I was trying to start the engine and it stopped and spun backwards. I have tried to free the stuck engine, but I am physically unable to do much physical work anymore, so I am going to let some lucky car person who is looking for a great car, take possession and reap the benefits. The transmission and brakes work great. This will make a great project car with the only major issue being the stuck engine. Once running you will love the car. Please ask questions as I want potential bidders to be satisfied with what they are bidding on. The car does have air conditioning but does not work.

How Ford secretly used customers to test its aluminum F-150 [w/video]
Fri, 30 May 2014Automakers getting clever about disguising development vehicles isn't anything new. Between mules wearing the sheetmetal of other cars and prototypes decked out in as much camouflage as is practical, automakers know how to make it very difficult for the general public to get an exact idea of what kind of vehicle is in development. Ford, though, is rapidly becoming the master.
We knew that the Blue Oval originally tested the durability of the aluminum construction being used for the 2015 F-150 by building an all-aluminum 2014 truck and entering it in the Baja 1000 off-road race. That's no longer a secret. What we didn't know, though, is that the aluminum development dates back to before even that, and that some of the people in question had no idea what it was they were working with.
Ford says this is the first time prototypes have ever been handed over to the public.
Ford F-Series Super Duty earns Truck of Texas award
Wed, Oct 12 2016Texans love their pickup trucks, which you already knew. That means the Texas Auto Writers Association and its "Truck of Texas" award is a big deal. And the latest trophy goes to the 2017 Ford F-Series Super Duty. The pickup truck managed to snag TAWA's award at the 2016 Texas Truck Rodeo. The award marks the 13th time Ford's F-Series has been named the pickup king of the Lone Star State. Roughly 70 journalists converged outside at the Longhorn River Ranch, just outside of Austin, TX, for the 23rd annual Texas Truck Rodeo where a host of Ford's vehicles won awards. In addition to the F-Series Super Duty being named the "Truck of Texas," the 2017 Ford Super Duty won the Heavy Duty Pickup Truck award, while the 2017 Ford F-150 with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine won the Best Powertrain award. The journalists also awarded Ford for having the "Truck Line of Texas." Ford wasn't the only winner at the Texas Truck Rodeo, as Nissan brought home five awards, including one for the 2017 Titan in the fullsize pickup category and one for the Armada in the SUV segment. Ram also won a few accolades with its trucks. The 2017 Ram 1500 won for being the most luxurious pickup truck, while the 2017 Ram 2500 Power Wagon won the off-road pickup truck award. Last year, TAWA named the 2016 Nissan Titan XD the Truck of Texas, but Ford's all-new F-Series Super Duty managed to keep the Japanese automaker's full-size offering at bay. For the 2017 model, Ford placed aluminum body panels into the F-Series Super Duty's body, which not only shed weight, but also make the truck stronger. Scroll down to see the entire list of TAWA's winners from the 2016 Texas Truck Rodeo.
