1973 Ford Ranchero GT
This is an all origional 73 Ranchero GT that has been inside for a long time. I purchased from the origional owner. Car runs and drives Great. Was not neglected. Battery was charged and had been started every so often and moved around. The car/Truck has origional paint with exception of a couple of places. Both rear quarters were painted from stripe down back in early 80's have reciepts for that. There is rusted through places behind both rear wheels. No more holes rusted through in car. Body is very straight with nothing more than a ding here and there maybe 5 or so. Worst one being on the hood about the size of a half dollar. Car has had the camper shell on it since new. Also has carpet back there, that if removed would be a dent free bed that would slick out nicely. Camper is "ugly" but i wanted to leave it on so that it would be with car.
Car has 429 4V engine with auto transmission. Does not smoke, or have any blowback from valve cover. Transmission shifts good as it should. Power steering leaks fluid very bad from a hose that needs replacing. Has power brakes, and is an air conditioned car. Belt is off of A/C compressor but compressor is NOT locked up.
Interior is completely origional with floor mats made into the carpet. Looped carpet is fuzzed up on drivers side from getting in and out. Seats are good with a little wear and tear on drivers seat. Dash is perfect, door panels are dried out but look ok they would need attention. Headliner has a couple of places where the stitching has come out, about 4 or 5 inches long. Does have the curtain that covers up spare tire and storage area behind seats and it is in good condition. Spare tire and all of the jack and assesories are there.
Tires have been on the car since, he said 82. They have almost new tread but are dry rotted and would need replaced. I bought the car and washed and vaccumed interior. Did not wax or polish exterior or Armor All interior, as not to cause any problems for a body shop. Car would make excelent project for restore or fix a few things and drive as is. There is nothing missing from car or added to car except trailer hitch. No surprises from something being covered up.
You are welcome to come and look at car before bidding. I am selling with NO RESERVE. At auction end buyer must pay a $500 deposit though PayPal with the balance due at pick up. CASH or CASHIER CHECK
CAR COMES WITH BILL OF SALE, AS TITLES DO NOT APPLY IN ALABAMA PRIOR TO 1975. HOWEVER I DO HAVE A UTAH CERTIFICATE OF TITLE THAT WAS ISSUED WHEN CAR WAS BOUGHT NEW

FBI investigating recently fired Ford engineer for espionage
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Agents of the FBI are investigating a potential case of industrial espionage involving a recently fired Ford employee. The Dearborn, MI-based manufacturer had its world headquarters searched by FBI agents on July 11, and according to The Detroit News, had warrants to seize recording devices handed over to Ford by Sharon Leach, a now-former Ford engineer.
Leach, who had spent 17 years with the Blue Oval, was fired last month, after Ford Security relieved her of eight Sansa listening devices. The FBI got involved shortly after her dismissal, searching her home on June 20 and seizing some two dozen items, including computers, jump drives and financial records, according to warrants obtained by The News.
Ford has remained quiet on the matter, with spokeswoman Susan Krusel confirming that the automaker was working with the FBI as part of a "joint investigation," while declining to provide any additional details.
Ford set to target pre-school market with next F-150 variant
Tue, Jun 17 2014How do you build a strong group of loyalists from the next generation of American drivers? You start em' young. Ford has taken that lesson to heart, as we can see in the first batch of images of the company's new entry to the pre-school market, the Power Wheels F-150. This particular example was caught returning from testing around Ford's base of operations in Dearborn, MI – covered in tiny little bits of camouflage, too. Now, this could very well end up being a collaboration between Power Wheels and Ford. Then again, it could just be some bored engineers that decided to troll the local congregation of spy photographers, who earlier today captured images of the next Focus RS and SVT Mustang. Whatever it is, it's pretty darn cool. Take a look up top for images of the new Power Wheels F-150.
Weekly Recap: 2016 CTS-V gives Cadillac new momentum for the new year
Sat, Dec 27 2014It's been a rough year for Cadillac. The historic luxury carmaker been in the news for all of the wrong reasons: Declining sales, ditching its advertising agency and the relocation of its headquarters from Detroit to New York. But in late December, Cadillac reminded everyone what it does best: Build some of the rawest and most compelling luxury sedans in the world, as evidenced by the 2016 CTS-V. This monster churns out 640 horsepower from a supercharged 6.2-liter V8. Sound familiar? That's the Corvette Z06 engine, and it makes this CTS the most powerful production Cadillac ever. It also puts the sporting divisions of the Germans on notice. The new CTS-V easily overpowers the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4Matic and its 5.5-liter biturbo V8 rated at 577 hp, and the BMW M5 (with the competition pack) and its 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 that pushes out 575 hp. The rear-wheel drive Cadillac can sprint to 60 miles per hour in 3.7 seconds, which is close to the 3.5-second time turned in by the 4Matic-driven E63 S, and a bit quicker than the 4.1 seconds posted by the M5. With Magnetic Ride Control, General Motors' stout eight-speed automatic transmission (also used in the Corvette), Brembo brakes and a carbon-fiber option package that pretty much builds your car out of carbon fiber – it's clear this Cadillac means business. Truth be told, we expected this CTS-V to deliver. It's been a serious sports sedan for a decade, and the recent generation and its 556-hp arrogance have been particularly memorable. But notice what we're doing here? We're talking about product. Not who makes Cadillac's ads, or if the brand's headquarters has a mailing address in NYC. Like the 2016 ATS-V that's due in the spring, the debut of the 2016 CTS-V (on sale in late summer) is a shot in the arm for Cadillac, and its arrival comes during time of transition. The brand is trying to reinvent itself as a modern luxury maker. It wants new customers, a different image and obviously more sales. Those things are going to take time, but with a 640-hp sledgehammer of a sports sedan on tap for next year, Cadillac can still maintain some of its swagger through all of the change.
