I am selling a 1978 Ranchero GT 500. This car was left to me by a close friend, and he was the original owner. The car runs very well, and the transmission shifts good. It is a 351 V8 with a C6 transmission. Paint is in excellent condition (always garage kept) with a custom pin stripping. Interior is in mint condition, no cracks on original dash, no tears in seats. The A/C is in working condition, but could use a re-charging. The original clock and tachometer are not working. The 351 V8 was a brand new Ford crate motor, which was installed in this car in 1993. There is about 25,000 miles on the crate motor, at most.The title is current on this vehicle, and it does have a salvaged title, but this was not due to this vehicle being wrecked, the frame is intact. The car was once vandalized, and was considered salvaged due to part theft, but this vehicle was restored 100%. This is a California car, and has stayed in southern CA its' whole life. Buyer will be responsible for pick-up and shipping.

Ford doubling 1.0L EcoBoost engine production
Fri, 06 Sep 2013Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine hasn't been around that long, but it sounds like the engine is getting to be fairly popular in the automaker's global car lineup. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford has add a second shift that will allow its German engine plant to double daily output from 500 engines to 1,000.
The increased capacity is part of a plan to sell more than 300,000 vehicles a year with this engine in Europe by 2015. Europe is currently the only market where the smallest of the EcoBoost engines is offered (including in the Focus pictured above), but US-spec Fiesta models will be getting this mill for 2014.
Three-cylinder engines are expected to continue to grow in popularity in coming years with the report indicating that global production of these engines will double by 2018 to 9.8 million units. General Motors, BMW and Mitsubishi are all expected to introduce three-cylinder engines in the near term, as well.

First 500 European Ford Mustangs reserved in 30 seconds [w/video]
Thu, 29 May 2014We're pretty sure that any initial concerns Ford had about selling the redesigned Mustang in Europe have been lessened considerably, after the first 500 Euro-spec 2015 Mustangs were been reserved in just 30 seconds. Moreover, 9,300 people attempted to snag one of the coveted orders for the all-new muscle car. Yes, Mustang, you should do quite well across the pond.
The registration event was held during the UEFA (pronounced yu-eh-fa) Champions League Final between Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid.
"We knew there was huge excitement building for the new Ford Mustang coming to Europe, but the response during the UCL Final was overwhelming," said Roelant de Waard, VP of marketing, sales and service for Ford's European outfit. "It was a truly special way to kick off the Ford Mustang era in Europe."
