Up for bid is an all original 1958 Ford Ranchero. With less than 750 miles on the original motor that was rebuilt in late 2006. Nothing is modified from original. No rust or corrosion on anything. All the brakes, steering, wiring  and chassis components were restored in 2007. Along with a gorgeous interior restoration in 2008. This rig has the 213cc 6 cylinder with a 3 speed manual transmission. Originally bought new by Montana State University. And sold to us in 1969. It sat inside until 2006 when we started restoring it. Nothing is really needed for the car. However, it does need a home that appreciates these ole classics. It runs and drives great. With recent tires and battery. This rig has been driven just enough to keep it maintained over the years. We take it to a couple local car shows every year. And, to the store once in a while. The odometer showed 29,712 miles when we returned from town with it today. We expect the chassis miles may be closer to 129K. We only expect to use it for test drives until sold.

   Located in southern Montana just off Interstate 90 on our ranch in Manhattan, Montana. There's a major truck stop in Belgrade, MT. 59714 Just 3 miles from us.  Always garaged and never wrecked or abused. The body is very straight with all original panels. No fiberglass or aftermarket replacement parts on this rig. All interested are encouraged to take this Ranchero for a drive and view it up close. Crawl underneath and do any checks necessary to insure the quality and integrity of this classic.  Please feel free to ask any questions before placing a bid. International bidders are welcomed and held to the same guidelines and time frames as all bidders. For detailed questions I can be contacted directly from 9AM to 10 PM PST..

We can also take it to the major truck stop located on Interstate 90 only 3 miles from us in Belgrade, MT. 59714.  Since shipping can involve many specifics. We always ask interested parties to contact and locate their own shipper. I can refer you to a few reputable shipping companies located in the U.S. that customers and I have used over the years. We also have an international agent for overseas shiping estimates. Feel free to inquire.

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners

Sat, 30 Mar 2013

The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.

National Geographic Channel balances Ford F-150 on four coffee mugs

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Proving that there is still something to be learned on television these days, National Geographic Channel recently introduced a new series called Duck Quacks Don't Echo. On the first episode of this science/comedy show, host Michael Ian Black proposes the idea that a truck can be supported with a ceramic coffee mug under each wheel - yes, he says that the entire weight of a truck can be balanced on just four coffee mugs.
Looking to find out whether this is fact or myth, the show uses a regular cab Ford F-150, weighing in at 4,800 pounds, and four average coffee mugs. Lowered onto the mugs, the idea is quickly put to the test. Can the cups hold up under 4,800 pounds? If so, what, exactly, would it take to break them? Scroll down below to find out.

Ford recalls 434k vehicles for several unrelated issues

Mon, 07 Apr 2014

It seems that the hard winter in much of the country has been as rough on some Fords as it has on many people. The Blue Oval is recalling roughly 434,000 vehicles in two separate recalls, and one of them partially caused by the salt used to melt the snow on roads.
The first recall covers 385,750 2001-2004 Escape models in the Midwest, Northeast and Canada because a subframe could rust and eventually fail. This is partially due to the road salt used in those areas, and about 349,000 of the affected vehicles are in the US. To remedy the problem, dealers are installing a reinforcement cross brace on the frame to strengthen them. There has been one crash caused by the failure but no injuries. According to The Detroit News, this is not the first rust-related recall for Ford. It estimates the company has repaired over two million vehicles since 2010 for problems on vehicles related to the iron oxide, including the rear wheel wells of the Freestar minivan.
The second recall covers 48,950 2013-2014 Ford Fusion, Escape, C-MAX and Lincoln MKZ models because welds in their seatbacks don't meet National Highway Traffic Safety Administration standards. The fault affects the front seats, and the sub-standard welds joining the setback to the recliner could increase the chance on injury. There have been no reported injuries or accidents caused by the problem, but there are 42,972 affected vehicles in the US and 4,744 in Canada.
