Here's what I can offer you. The car was bought new on September 12, 1969 from Monahan Ford Corporation of Flushing, New York. I have to envolope with the owners manual and warranty cards when it was delivered. I bought it from a man who acquired it in the mid 90's and restored it to its present state. I hold a VA title that shows 70,495 actual miles but I only assume that to be the true miles. The car has some rust on the undercarriage and a few blisters in the paint on the tailgate and bottom of the right hand front fender. The gas gauge is inoperable and the transmission has a fluid leak. I have not done much to identify the problems. I did have a very knowledgable Ranchero owner look at the car and claimed it was fair priced at 5K for the condition both good and bad. The car is a good Sunday driver and easy to maintain as a basic car would be. I get thumbs up and compliments every time I drive it some place. The car has the original 289 but a '83 intake and 4 barrel was added. It has an Pertronix ignition module to rid the pesky points system. It is a 4 wheel drum brake non power assist but does have power steering. No A/C. The bed has some dents (inside) where it was used like a truck but no rust through. It was also painted at the same time. Air shocks and a 9" rear end with 3:00 to I axle. I believe this car is capable of making an extended road trip with little to no problems. I drive it on interstates and boulevards around here without much concern.

The car was painted a late model Ford Caymen Green in the late 90's. It is a base coat/clear coat process and not the original color. All jams and under hood sprayed and shows no trace of original color. The car has GT badging in the grill and GT wheels. Also aftermarket mirrors were install recently. Again this is a cruiser not a correct show car.

I can take any picture if you need to see something particular. I don't believe the car will lose value if kept in the current condition, If anything perhaps increase. I need about 8K to build a race motor for my modified is the reason for the sale. But I have the modified up for sale too. So if that gets sold I want need a motor and will keep the Ranchero.

I represent this item to be in the described condition, However item is sold AS-IS. Please contact me if you have any questions so to make an informed bid.

I will require a $250 Non Refundable within 24 hours of the end of the auction. Understand that by bidding, you are effecting to contract. I want to sell the car and I want the buyer to be happy with their purchase. I will do my very best to make this transaction an excellent one. If you bid, you will be expected to pay. If the car disappoints you to such a degree at personal pick up, we will try to resolve that at that time. If it is picked up by a shipper, then you own it.

Vehicle is for sale locally and auction may end if sold.

Good luck

Shelby GT500 laps N"urburgring in under 7:40?

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

A couple of weeks ago we brought you footage and official times of the new Chevy Camaro Z/28 lapping the Nürburgring. With a 7:37.47 lap time, the Z/28 emerged as the fastest muscle car ever to lap the circuit. But what was missing from that picture was how fast the king of all Mustangs, the Shelby GT500, could manage to lap the Nordschleife.
Ford never released any information or footage of the GT500 on the Nürburgring that we were aware of - that is, until the guys at SVTPerformance.com put in a request for Mustang videos. Among the clips they received was never-seen, in-car footage of the Shelby GT500 lapping the circuit. And boy did it hustle.
Although not quite official, the video seems to show the GT500 lapped the venerated German track in a touch under 7:40. That would make it a tick or two faster than the Camaro ZL1 - but what of the Z/28? By Chevy's quoted time, the Z/28 is still faster than the GT500, but SVTPerformance suggests GM may have fudged the numbers a bit and scrubbed half a second or so off their lap time.

Lego provides one of the cheapest ways to own a Bugatti Chiron

Tue, Jan 3 2017

Just over a month ago, we got a look at one of the latest Lego Speed Champions sets when Ford revealed the GT and GT40 kit. Now we get to see the rest of the lineup, and it's chock full of F1 and supercar goodness. The official Lego images show that the Bugatti Chiron, Mercedes-AMG GT3, Ferrari FXX K, and F1 cars from Ferrari and Mercedes all made the cut. Each set gets some unique features and most include interchangeable wheel covers. The Chiron comes with some tiny cones suitable for desk slaloms and the Mercedes-AMG GT3 gets an alternate nose. The FXX K comes has the most impressive selection of accessories, though, as it includes a dyno and engine run stand. The F1 sets are divided similarly, but with Mercedes getting more extras. The Brick Fan also reports that the Mercedes kit may be exclusive to select stores. The Ferrari kit only comes with a starting light, but the Mercedes set includes a garage, starting lights, and winner's circle. It'll be up to you whether you put Hamilton or Rosberg in that winner's circle. According to The Brick Fan, these kits are set for release in winter 2017. Since the Ford GT set has a release of March 1, we expect the rest will hit stores in the next couple of months. They're sure to be great additions to anyone's existing Lego garage.

Ford, Volvo top 2014 EyesOn Design awards

Fri, 17 Jan 2014

Each year at the Detroit Auto Show, the top vehicle designs are recognized with the prestigious EyesOn Design award for production and concept vehicles. This year, the 32 EyesOn Design judges (comprised of current and former vehicle designers including Chrysler designer and SRT president Ralph Gilles, Kia designer Peter Schreyer and retired General Motors designer Wayne Cherry) handed out three awards for the Best Concept Vehicle, Best Production Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials.
Beating out the Mercedes C-Class and Ford F-150, the 2015 Ford Mustang was named the Best Production Vehicle as the top auto show debut at this year's Detroit show. The 2014 Volvo Concept XC Coupe took home awards as the Best Concept Vehicle and for its Innovative Use of Color, Graphics and Materials.
Considering the Volvo's primer grey hue and subtle orange accents, it was a rather surprising winner for Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials over flashier concepts like the Toyota FT-1 and our Editors' Choice top pick, the Kia GT4 Stinger. Other vehicles in the running for the concept car award include the GT4 Stinger and Audi Allroad Shooting Brake
