Year:1957 Mileage:96734
Location:

1957 Ford Ranchero body professionally installed on a 1985 F-150 4x4 chassis. Very solid, new body mounting bushings were installed when built. 289 4 barrel with headers. Edelbrock manifold and carburetor. The vehicle runs well. New heater core and re-seal of heater / defroster. New upholstery and carpet. Rebuilt transmission with B&M shifter. Vintage Sun tach. 

The bad: radio, wipers and speedometer don't work. I bought it 4 years ago and it was just painted. There should have been more bodywork done. These all rust out on the bottom of the front fenders, and sheetmetal was riveted over the holes instead of installing patch panels. floor repairs are riveted in rather than welding.  Windshield is cracked.Needs door panels and headliner. Actual miles are unknown.

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Meet the Ford Mustang RTR Spec 5 Concept, a fully functional drift car that, according to our team in Sin City, has been doling out demo drifts in front of the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Destined to be the flagship of RTR's Tactical Performance Line, the Spec 5 Concept is, in addition to its 5.0-liter Aluminator V8 engine, chock full of performance parts that you can buy for your very own 2015 Mustang. In addition to the Ford Racing engine, the OEM parts supplier has lent the Spec 5 an aluminum radiator and a close-ratio six-speed transmission.
ASD Motorsports provided the front lower control arms, while the car itself rides on a fully customized coilover suspension. Magnaflow and American Racing have provided the exhaust system and headers, respectively. 20-inch HRE wheels, designed for RTR, are wrapped in sticky Nitto rubber.

eBay Find of the Day: Mk1 Ford GT40 with interesting history

Sat, 03 May 2014

You might expect a rare Ford GT40 to cross the block at some sort of prestigious auto auction from RM or Gooding, not show up on eBay for over $2 million. However, that's exactly what we have here. The seller claims the car is a late-build Mk1 GT40 from 1969, and it's currently owned by the director of the Hublot watch company in Switzerland.
According to the listing, GT40 #P1108 started life as Mk1 car that was built from factory spares in 1969 and was first sold in 1971. However, the auction is somewhat confusing. According to an image in its gallery, the vehicle was actually built from one of the seven spare Mk3 tubs when production of the iconic racers ended.
This GT40 was never built as a racecar - it lived on the streets its whole life. After assembly finished, it was sent to Germany and was eventually registered for the road. The first owner kept the car until 2005 and sold it with 7,300 miles on the odometer. The current owner bought it in 2012.
