Very cute, clean 1960 Ranchero. This whole car is a fresh build and guaranteed to bring smiles. Runs great with a 170 cubic inch inline 6 from a 1963 Falcon, acompanied by a 3 speed manual transmission with a Hurst "Indy shifter". The motor and front suspension have been thoroughly gone through, new Fisk whitewall tires, new clutch, newly upholstered seats, new carpet kit, and much more. This car drives amazing and can be driven comfortably all day. There is absolutely no slop in the steering box or front suspension. The suspension has all been lowered about 3", but it still rides like a stock Ranchero, it doesn't bounce around like many other lowered cars. The body is very straight and rust free, aside from two patch panels, one on each floorboard of the car in the foot-well area on either side. Both patches are about 1' x 1' in size. The car isn't perfect, but it is very fun and shows very well. Overall, this car is extremely reliable, and can be driven anywhere. Easy to work on, easy to find parts for, cheap and very cool custom car with tons of new parts, fresh motor, and new paint.

Drivetrain and motor: The previous owner had it rebuilt, and she runs like a top. Starts immediately on cold and hot days. Motor never gets above 180 degrees, and gets very good gas mileage. New fuel pump, Pertronix ignition, blaster coil, remanufactured carburetor, new alternator and a new .aluminum radiator. Motor doesn't tick, leak or smoke. The motor and transmission are both from a donor 1963 Falcon. Clutch is new and doesn't chatter or slip. The transmission works perfectly, no grinding, and shifts very well with the new Hurst "Indy Shifter". Tires are "Fisk Classics" with a 1" whitewall. Everything has approximately 500 miles in overall use.

Upholstery: A very classy look, with a new carpet kit, reupholstered bucket seats, detailed dash, chrome Hurst shifter, JVC brand, CD-MP3-AM-FM stereo with two 6" Kicker 2-way speakers in the door panels. The interior shows well, but there is an empty space in the dash where the original AM radio used to be, along with 5 small holes where the factory heater control and vent control knobs used to be, however it is a great spot for new toggle switches to go. The dash paint looks very nice and is satin black. There has been body work done to the doors to get rid of the door glass and it looks very good, a nice custom touch. The door panels and bed are decked out with Alder wood, that has been stained and treated with urethane. All lights work. Doors, hood, and tailgate open and close great.

Europe's most-wanted classic car is... the Ford Mustang?

Sat, 28 Sep 2013

Over the span of its 49 years and five generations, the Ford Mustang has held a special place in the hearts of automotive enthusiasts in the US, but, as it turns out, this car is also very popular amongst European car lovers. Earlier this summer, AutoScout24 - a new and used car shopping site in Europe - polled around 75,000 European "car lovers" (not sure how they vetted the respondents) to see which cars were the most popular, and the Mustang came out on top over iconic European classics like the BMW M1 and Volkswagen Beetle.
In the whole of Europe, 37 percent of those polled dream of owning a Mustang, but that number jumps in individual countries like Austria (42 percent) and Spain (41 percent). Rounding out the top five popular classics in Europe are the Mini and Citroën 2CV. Find out which cars made up the rest of the top 10 in the press release posted below.

These are 2014's best-selling cars and trucks

Tue, Jan 6 2015

Now that 2014 is no more than a set of numbers on spreadsheets, at last, the grist mill gets its first real load to chew on. The number one selling vehicle in America last year was the Ford F-Series, a fact that should surprise you only if your family name is Van Winkle and your naps tend to last 38 years, which is how long the Ford pickup has ruled our buying landscape. Even though series sales were down 1.3 percent, it still racked up 753,851 units. That's 2,065.3 sales per day, every day, all year. The Chevrolet Silverado, up 10.3 percent for the year, was still a daylight second at 529,755 units. The cab-and-bed love continued into third place with the Ram 1500-3500 trucks, gaining 23.6-percent year-on-year to clock 439,789 units. The robust turnout at The Bighorn and Jeep helped Fiat-Chrysler increase its sales by 16 percent, past the two-million mark. Our number one car? The Toyota Camry, staying in first place with a 4.9-percent sales boost to 428,606 sales, trailed again by the Honda Accord at number five with 388,374 sales. Accord sales rose six percent, and if it's any consolation to Honda for coming in second - not that it needs one - it is the only manufacturer to have three vehicles in the top ten. The rest of the list: the Nissan Altima with 335,644 sales (+4.7%), the Honda CR-V with 355,019 (+10.2%), the Toyota Corolla/Matrix combo with 339,498 (+5.9%), the Honda Civic with 325,981 (-3.1%), and the Ford Fusion with 306,860 sales (+2.9%). Total sales for the year were up six percent to 16.5 million vehicles, a volume not seen since 2006, aided by a strong December that was up by 11 percent year-on-year. Ford was the top selling brand overall but sales didn't really budge from 2013, while Subaru rocketed up 21 percent to finish with 513,693 sales. At the precious end, BMW, Audi, Porsche and Land Rover all had record years, and Kelley Blue Book thinks we could be looking at 17 million sales for the next two or three years. Looks like it's time to start making hay again...

Mustang pinball game will feature art by Ford GT designer

Fri, 13 Dec 2013

To celebrate 50 years of Mustang, Ford and Stern Pinball are collaborating on a new pinball machine that will feature the muscle car in all its glory, Polygon reports. Even better, Camilo Pardo, the guy who designed the Ford GT, will provide art for the table; Tanner Foust, Top Gear USA host and professional driver, will handle narrating duties; and a Sony Music soundtrack spanning five decades will provide the tunes.
"The Mustang is one of the most iconic, American cars ever made... What better way to celebrate 50 years of Mustang than with the launch of the Ford Mustang pinball game?" says Stern Pinball CEO Gary Stern.
Watch the promotional trailer for the upcoming Mustang pinball machine below, which will have to hold you over until pricing and availability are announced in early 2014.
