Driving
this BEAST
The Ranchero
is blisteringly fast and I can say I do not have the guts to stay on the gas
for very long – frankly, it’s scary fast.
It handles
well with the suspension mods, considering the geometry is stock. The brakes
keep up with the added power and are not boosted because I like heavy braking
and steering in a heavy, powerful car like this. It has definitely turned a few
heads at autocross events!
I would be
100% confident to get in this car and drive it anywhere today and would feel
the same about seeing off the new buyer on a great road trip home.
Other
Registered in
Pennsylvania as antique to keep the insurance rates very low; clear title in my
name.
About the sale:
I’m selling
my Ranchero because I fell for (and bought) a 34 Ford pickup and have been, since
that time, bitten by the traditional hot rod bug.
We can seal
the deal with a $500 non-refundable PayPal deposit within 24 hours of auction
close; the balance of payment will be due within 7 days after auction close. To
avoid paying a large PayPal service charge, I’ll only accept PayPal for the deposit
amount.
Over the
years, I’ve been totally satisfied, both as a buyer and seller, with Intercity
Lines (http://www.intercitylines.com)
and I’ll certainly make myself available for your shipper or you to get the
car. If you win the auction and decide to fly to Philly to drive the Ranchero
home, please call me and maybe I can pick you up at the Philly airport.
I’ll be happy
to send you the title by FedEx on the day after your payment clears my bank (I’m
giving myself a day in case I get jammed up at work and I can’t get to the
FedEx box in time).

Mulally confirms he's not leaving Ford for Microsoft
Tue, 07 Jan 2014In recent months, rumors had been flying about Ford CEO Alan Mulally potentially leaving the company to take a position at Microsoft. Last we heard, Mulally was planning to stick around at Ford through at least 2014, and in an interview today, that bit was confirmed by the CEO himself.
According to the Associated Press, in a report from The Detroit News, Mulally said he will not be leaving Ford for Microsoft, and reiterated that he will remain at the Blue Oval through 2014, if not longer. Mulally has "no plans other than to serve Ford," according to the report.
Mulally did not say whether or not he had been in talks with Microsoft at any point. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has said he plans to leave the software company sometime this year.
Ford Transit Skyliner Concept is a Gulfstream for the road
Sat, 12 Apr 2014If you are afraid to fly or just want to arrive at your ultimate destination in absolute comfort, then the Ford Transit Skyliner concept might be the perfect vehicle for you. Built by Galpin Auto Sports and based on a 2015 Transit, the van is basically a private jet on wheels. It even has a touch of Transformers about it with the ability to switch between four modes by pressing a button in a smartphone app.
Based on the long wheelbase, high-roof model with 487 cubic feet of cargo space and 6 feet, 9.5 inches of interior height, the Skyliner has movable captains chairs that shift around among four modes. In theater mode, the seats turn and recline to face a 52-inch retractable movie screen with 7.2 surround sound. For business, a motorized table unfolds, and the chairs gather around it. There is a mode for tailgating where the door opens four-feet wide, and, when traveling, passengers can recline back with footrests that extend for maximum comfort.
To make the ride even plusher, there is a satellite and media server to meet your entertainment needs, and there is even a built-in bar in the back. If this Ford had a bathroom, you could live in it. Of course, you would need to hire a driver to enjoy all the amenities in the back.
Ford pits Cobra Jet versus GRC Fiesta ST, worlds collide
Thu, 31 Oct 2013Racing takes on many forms in the automotive world. There are sanctioned events that are as varied and diverse as NASCAR, Formula One, Global Rallycross and drag racing, and to be good enough to win competitively in one discipline, you need to have a specialized vehicle. Or do you?
Ford decided to find out what would happen when its Global Rallycross Fiesta ST, driven by Tanner Foust, lined up against its Mustang Cobra Jet drag racer, driven by Roy Hill. In one lane, Tanner has just 2.0 liters of displacement to work with, while Roy has more than double that, at 5.0 liters. Evening the playing field a bit, Tanner has a massive turbocharger and all-wheel drive; Roy has to filter all his supercharged power through the rear wheels only.
So, who wins? We suggest you see for yourself in the press release and video below. And we're holding out hope that Tanner's challenge at the end results in another video from Ford Racing...
