PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY: I will try to explain this the best I can. In 1979 the vehicle with vin#2A48Q189576 was rear ended and totaled out by the insurance company. The previous owner found another 1972 Ranchero with vin#2A47F288864, this is the body that is housing every item from the original 1972 Ranchero including the rare q-code vin number dash board and has a clear Florida title for vin#2A48Q189576 also have the clear title to 2A47F288864. This Ranchero has a 351 Cleveland Cobra Jet roller motor that was professionally rebuilt and 4 speed trans. a very Fast Car . The dash board with a full instrument cluster is in excellent shape no cracks and all instruments work. The door panels are in excellent shape. The seats are in good shape, drivers seat does have 2 rips. As far as mechanicals this car runs and can be driven now only thing that may need replaced is the throw out bearing on the clutch which is an easy fix. The frame and floors are in good shape but the body has rust in places. Car has 9 inch ford rear end not sure what the gears are. I could go on and on about this car, fixed it up and have a great and fast classic. Feel free to contact me by e-mail. Serious buyers only. Please do not bid if you are not ready to buy. |

DoJ fines Japanese parts firms $740M in massive automotive price-fixing scandal
Fri, 27 Sep 2013Nine Japanese suppliers have pleaded guilty in US court over charges of price fixing in the automotive parts industry, resulting in the Department of Justice doling out a total of $740 million of fines, according to a report from Bloomberg. The scandal, which has resulted in General Motors, Ford, Toyota and Chrysler spending up to $5 billion on inflated parts and driving up prices on 25 million vehicles has sent the DoJ hustling into investigations. "The conduct this investigation uncovered involved more than a dozen separate conspiracies aimed at the U.S. economy," Attorney General Eric Holder (pictured above) said during yesterday's press conference.
As the investigation stands, the DoJ has issued $1.6 billion in fines against 20 companies and 21 individual executives, with 17 of the execs headed to prison. Deputy Assistant Attorney General Scott Hammond said, "The breadth of the conspiracies brought to light today are as egregious as they are pervasive. They involve more than a dozen separate conspiracies operating independently but all sharing in common that they targeted US automotive manufacturers."
Big-name suppliers indicted in the investigation include Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi Automotive and Mitsuba Corporation. A list of fines and other corporations named in the investigation is available at Bloomberg.
J Mays' legacy
Fri, 15 Nov 2013
Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".
