You are bidding on a very rare 1970 Ford Ranchero GT with its original 'M code' 351 Cleveland 4bbl high performance engine. I am listing this car for a friend that doesn't use a computer much. His name is Gene, and I would recommend calling him directly for questions since it is his car. 541-973-1962. They only made 3,905 GT's this year. About half came with the Cleveland. This car is a barn find that runs and drives. New brake shoes and spring kit on rear, plus new disc pads in the front, as well as a new master cylinder. It may still need a new booster for the brakes to work well. This car is an original A/C car. The compressor is off, but is included. The body is very straight overall. Paint is shiny, but has enough chips and scratches to warrant a respray. I would put it back to the original color which is just under this one layer of paint. Dash cluster needs replaced, and the car comes with a good one. There is a small dent in the right rear, and that tail light has some damage, but there is a good one that goes with the car.

· 351 Cleveland Holley four barrel carb
· FMX Automatic Transmission
· Ford 9" rear end
· Power steering, Power disc Brakes, A/C car
· True M Code GT car
· Nice extra Dash Cluster included
· Nice extra Front Bumper
· Original color was Grabber Green
· Remote adjust side mirror
· Dual exhaust W/ full length headers - needs new gaskets
· Lights, turn signals all work
· Needs windshield wiper motor
· New shoes, disc pads and Master Cylinder
· Glass and trim in nice shape all around

For more info call Gene @ 541-973-1962

This Ranchero would be a great car you could drive and restore at the same time. The collector value can only go up on such a low production, popular classic. I am selling a 1966 Ranchero that I personally restored that is also listed on E-bay right now. As with any used car it will be sold "as-is", and will come with a clear, numbers matching Oregon state title. The car will need to be paid for within 7 days of auction ending. Checks will need time to clear before car is picked up. Again, I am only the middleman on this car, so give Gene a call if you would like to know more. Thanks

Ford's first PHEV in Europe could be C-Max

Fri, Oct 17 2014

Ford could start selling a plug-in hybrid in Europe pretty soon, according to at least one of its executives. Whether it's willing to do so is another story. But if the market perks up, so will the company. The automaker can "quickly" develop a plug-in hybrid version of its Mondeo, the sister car to the Ford Fusion, Automotive News Europe says, citing Ford executive Uli Koesters. The subject of Ford selling plug-in hybrids in Europe is more vital than ever since Volkswagen recently started selling its first PHEV (a Golf) there. VW will also debut a Passat PHEV next year. Koesters was less certain about whether there was sufficient European demand to warrant a production PHEV from Ford. Europe's biggest-selling plug-in hybrid through the first half of the year was the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. That model, according to JATO Dynamics, moved almost 9,000 units through June. Toyota sold almost 4,300 Prius Plug-in Hybrids in Europe during that time period. And we can't be sure Ford's first European PHEV will be the Modeo/Fusion, either. In fact, Ford's first plug-in hybrid for Europe is more likely to be the C-Max, John Gardiner, a Ford spokesman in Europe, told AutoblogGreen. He would only say that it would be sold "in selected markets soon," without being more specific. Ford's two PHEVs in the US have been selling well this year. Through September, sales of the Fusion Energi PHEV almost tripled to 9,323 units, while Ford C-Max Energi PHEV sales were up 51 percent to 6,486 units.

Ford looks to space robots to improve car-to-car communications [w/video]

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Ford has partnered with St. Petersburg Polytechnic University for three years to research various kinds of connected vehicle communications. The university tie-up is part of its study of space robots, NASA systems created to enable space-to-Earth communication, and the university's own development of systems that enable communication between the International Space State and Earth.
The objective is for Ford to engineer layers of robust networks and redundancy systems that will allow your car to speak to other cars, to emergency vehicles, to infrastructure like traffic lights and buildings, and to the cloud. Benefits would come in just about every area of transit, from avoiding accidents, to getting medical workers to an accident more quickly, to improving the flow of traffic during rush hour.
Check out the press release below for details on what Ford wants to learn from the JUSTIN Humanoid and NASA Robonaut R2, and a video of technical leader Oleg Gusikhin discussing his interest in the project.

Ford to build Explorer in Russia to meet demand [w/video]

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

The current Ford Explorer is sold in more than 64 countries, and this three-row vehicle continues to grow in popularity worldwide. To keep up with demand, Ford began producing the Explorer at Ford Sollers Elabuga Assembly Plant in Tatarstan, Russia, a joint venture facility. This partnership will build Russian-market Explorers only, and production of export vehicles not destined for Russian buyers will continue to be built at Ford's assembly plant in Chicago.
Before this plant went online, Ford would ship Explorers to Russia (and other regions around the world) as partially assembled knock-down units where final assembly would eventually take place. While there is no indication as to how many Explorers Ford Sollers will build for Russia, Ford did add that exports of the SUV were up 65 percent last year (from 2011) accounting for more than 24,000 units.
Scroll down for a press release about the Russian Explorer as well as a video (bad music and all) showing the SUV being produced in Tatarstan.
