Once in a great while you get a chance to sell an exceptional RUST FREE Arizona Classic @ No Reserve.  We know this is risky, but also believe there are enough real buyers to make this worth it.  The story here is this, it was told to me that this Ranchero 500 was a NORTHERN ARIZONA "Supposed -Actual mile~ One owner~, or at least one family owned vehicle."  (SEE PICS AND MAKE YOUR ASSESSMENT PLEASE.)

We believe this to be true due to the uncanny originality of the vehicle, the lack of any drivers side seat wear, and having the Original Extra Vin plate and delivery tag in the vehicle.  The Gentlemans name is on it, but for privacy reasons it will be blurred.   The passenger window was being worked on and the original armrest and door skin come with the Ranchero. The items are not on the passenger door at present, but pictures of their quality is available.  WE believe the Powertrain to be a 351 Cleveland with Dual exhaust.  If it is a Windsor, its your lucky day...but I doubt it.


The Ranchero is missing part of one emblem and the dash is showing some signs of its submission to the desert summers, however the summers where she has been kept rarely reach 80 degrees!!

This makes this one a "BARN FIND ARIZONA TREASURE"!! This doesn't mean perfect, but it means great as it sits, no known leaks, runs good, etc.   The title will read box c, or unverifiable mileage.  This is due to the 5 digit odometer and exemption laws.   I believe it is actual, but I cant verify due to the title status.  Most dealers make trade in vehicles BoxC, when the vehicle is over 20 years old to avoid any liability.   I understand... 


I didn't take the pictures on a fancy Golf Course this time...... you will have to imagine how gorgeous Arizona is right now, but forgive the boring background.  It is in secured storage at this time.

These have sold anywhere from $6,500 to $12,000 in this type of shape, The PRICE is in your hands as this one is SELLING TO THE LAST, and ONLY THE LAST BIDDER.




CHECK OUT THE BED!!!

Ford books $1.2B profit in second quarter on strength of trucks

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Ford is rolling along nicely, with a positive second-quarter sales report and a $2.3 billion profit in North America. The Dearborn, Michigan-based manufacturer captured $1.2 billion globally from April to June, with a $177 million profit in Asia. Even in Europe, the land of doom and gloom for automakers not named Mazda, Ford saw some success as it lowered its expected full-year loss from $2 billion to $1.8 billion. The company lost $348 million in Europe during the second quarter, which, believe it or not, represents a $56-million improvement over 2012.
According to the report on CNBC, Ford enjoyed a three-percent increase in pre-market trading thanks to the news. The strong demand for the F-150 propelled growth in the US market, while Ford's 47-percent increase in Asian sales can be attributed to the new EcoSport crossover and Kuga (Ford Escape in the US) arriving in the somewhat fragile Chinese market.
Pre-tax profits for Ford are expected to be in the neighborhood of $8 billion by the end of the year, with sales the US, Europe, and China all looking up. The company also shifted $4.78 billion of asset-backed debt in the form of bonds, according to a report by Bloomberg. This move came amidst rumors of the Federal Reserve cutting back on its $85-billion-per-month bond purchases. Ford wasn't alone among automakers looking to sell off debt, though, as Mercedes-Benz and Nissan shifted around $1 billion each in bonds relating to auto loans.

Shelby boosts production of 575-hp Raptor on early demand

Mon, 08 Apr 2013

Shelby American unveiled its all-new Shelby Raptor at the New York Auto Show last month, saying that it would build just 100 examples of its off-road bad boy, a pickup priced at $17,995 over the cost of the donor Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. But the Las Vegas outfit apparently underestimated just how popular the supercharged 575-horsepower 4x4 would actually be.
Strong early demand reportedly has Shelby singing a whole new tune, as the company is now saying it will build upwards of 500 units annually. While the increased production will likely make for at least 400 more happy owners, those who were on the original short list - possibly speculating on future values - might not be grinning as much. Needless to say, the company has assured everyone that each and every one of the modified Raptors will still be listed in the official Shelby registry.
Keep in mind that Ford isn't sitting idle on its trophy-truck-for-the-street, either. The company will reveal its own 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition this month.

J.D. Power study identifies top seats for your tush

Tue, Aug 29 2017

File under News your fanny can use: The seating systems in the Ford Escape and Edge, the Audi A3, Chevrolet Cruze, Kia Cadenza, Porsche Cayenne and Toyota Tundra received top marks in a new J.D. Power study on seating and seat belt quality and satisfaction. The J.D. Power 2017 Seat Quality and Satisfaction Study asked more than 77,000 new owners and lessees of 2017 model-year cars and light trucks to rate their vehicle's seats and seat belts within the first 90 days of taking ownership. The survey is broken up into seven vehicle segments and scored on total seat problems per 100 within each segment, with awards presented to the seating system supplier. Canadian auto supplier Magna won three of seven first-place awards for its seating systems in the A3, Escape and Edge. Ireland-based Adient got top marks for its seats in the Cadenza and Cayenne. Lear Corp. won for the Cruze, and Avanzar Interior Technologies scored highest for seats in the Tundra. J.D. Power says its study is intended for automakers and suppliers with quality and satisfaction information to be used in developing and marketing seating systems. "But the results are just as interesting to a consumer audience," the company says. "After all, some drivers spend a considerable amount of time behind the wheel, and it's helpful to know which vehicles offer the most comfortable seats for those long commutes." Ain't that the truth. Ford was the only automaker whose seat systems, both manufactured by Magna, received top honors in two segments: the Escape for mass-market compact SUV and the Edge for mass-market midsize/large SUV. J.D. Power says it used 22 attributes to measure seat quality, three measures of seat belt quality and 12 to measure satisfaction. Awards were presented to the seating suppliers.
