Up for auction is an overall easy project car to complete. This is a 1966 Ford Ranchero that is all original. This Ranchero has it's original 289 V8,3 speed manual column shift transmission. This Ranchero is a 2 owner car that i purchased in 2004. The car has been just sitting in my yard for over 6 years. The odometer shows 32,947 miles and the man i purchased this truck from was from WV and swore the miles to be original. As good as the engine ran,i believe that the miles may really be correct. All of the drivetrain in this Ranchero is in very good condition,but has not been cranked in over 2 years or moved since 2004. The motor is free and will just need a tune up to get it back running great again. The original interior is still in overall good shape and the dash looks good and the horn ring on the car is the only upgrade and it is a NOS horn ring. The hubcaps are not the originals,but still look ok on it. The body is straight,but does have some rust in it,mainly the lower quarter panels,but i'm including 2 good useable original quarter sections that are cut much larger than needed. The tires are no good from sitting,but the original steel rims are ok. The gas tank was no good,but i'm including a good gas tank out of the other 66 Ranchero that i had cut the rear quarter setions out of. The front and rear original bumpers with all of the brackets are also included. The front grill is straight and nice as is all of the bed stainless. The tailgate is straight and also solid. There are a couple of small rust holes in the drivers side front fender and 1 small rust spot in the lower passenger side door. The floor pans may also need a little work or maybe replacing from sitting so long. Again,this is a project car,but it is all original and complete with everything to get it back on it's way to being a nice driver or show truck depending on the new owners attentions with it. This Ranchero will need to be trailered to your destination. I think i've covered most everything,but feel free to ask a question if you're interested in this 1966 Ford Ranchero.

Ford car-camo artist works his craft on Australia's new Falcon XR8

Fri, 25 Jul 2014

Ford is among the kings of concealment when it comes to test cars. On one recent Mustang SVT mule, the automaker went to the extreme of putting baffles over the exhausts to hide how many there were. Sounds like a lot of work, right? In a new video, the Blue Oval has decided to take fans behind the scenes to show them what it takes to camouflage a prototype. In this case the subject was the recently unveiled 2014 Falcon XR8 for Australia.
Ford's prototype build coordinator Down Under has the very appropriate name of Neil Trickey, and it's his job to obfuscate the important bits of test cars to keep them out of spy shooters' camera lenses. Trickey calls his job a "dark art," and he shows off some of the tricks of his trade in the video. It turns out that the fabric we often see on mules is a type of lycra, but his team isn't above getting out a can of spray paint to conceal parts, too.
Scroll down to watch a video about a man who you probably wish could be a little worse at his job.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.

Ex-GM VP LaNeve takes over Lincoln ad agency

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

Those of you that caught yesterday's op-ed about Lincoln will have heard already, but Mark LaNeve has taken the helm at Team Detroit. Once the North American vice president of sales, service and marketing for General Motors, LaNeve will now head up the agency that handles all of Ford advertising. LaNeve will also run the account for Lincoln. While at GM from 2001 to 2009, the exec oversaw ad campaigns like Cadillac's Breakthrough and sales initiatives like "Employee Pricing for Everyone."
He left in 2009 to join Allstate as chief marketing officer, oversaw the creation of the Mayhem ad spots and was moved into the role of VP of agency operations overseeing Allstate's 10,000 agents. He resigned from the insurer in February 2012 for personal reasons and joined Team Detroit in August 2012 as chief operating officer, in charge of satellite offices in New York and internationally. He replaces ex-CEO Cameron McNaughton, and will continue to hold the title of COO.
Lincoln is trying to get its 2013 back to rights after putting big dollar commercials for the 2013 MKZ on television then having production glitches preventing cars from getting to dealerships. With rumors of a relaunch in the works, it's no surprise LaNeve has been given the reins - and from here it looks like the brand is desperate for the kind of magic he's proved he can marshal. Perhaps he can start by calling a mulligan on the renaming exercise that gave us the hoary "Lincoln Motor Company" and go back to oh, say, "Lincoln." Then he can ask the product folks to get to work on the MKC concept...
