Fast Classic Ford Ranchero on 2040-cars
Redwood Estates, California, United States
1977 FORD RANCHERO, V8, 351 WINDSOR, AUTOMATIC I haven't owned her a very long time. I bought her from a teenager who had tried to supe her up some. He took off all the California smog parts and air conditioning but, then couldn't get her registered. I bought her put her back together and she passed smog last April. She is running strong and fast and will lay out some rubber pretty easily. In addition to replacing the smog and air condition parts, I have replaced the water pump, radiator, thermostat, front disc brakes and rotors. It has just under 97,000 original miles, pretty good tires all the way around and a spare though 1 tire is mismatched from the others as far as brand, the battery is fairly new. All that being said, this is a 37 year old car and is "SOLD AS IS". Though the stuffing is not yet showing or coming out the top, the leather seats are splitting at the seams, the headliner is shot and coming apart, a couple of splits in the dashboard, several scratches in the paint, small ding on tailgate, some body work on the side top supports. It doesn't overheat or leak any oil, transmission or radiator fluids. The air conditioner had a small leak. The registration is due 28th of this month and is $180.00 I had hoped to paint her, fix the interior and put some really nice rims on but, I have other vehicles and bills I need to pay. Opening bid is what they will give me to scrap her. Sure would hate to do that to this classic but, I can't keep her. This is local pick up only. I will deliver (drive her) to you anywhere within a 25 mile radius of San Jose, California |

2015 Ford Mustang gets pricing, configurator and less weight than expected
Fri, 13 Jun 2014It's here; it's finally here. No more speculating or looking at dealer order guides, the configurator for the 2015 Ford Mustang is finally online. That means you should put down whatever you're doing and build your new 'Stang. Weight data for the new model has also leaked out, and while there is an increase, it's less than previously rumored.
The basic V6 coupe carries a base price of $23,600, plus an additional $825 destination charge for all models. Upgrading to the 2.3-liter Ecoboost costs $25,170, and the Ecoboost Premium is $29,170. If you need a V8 in your life, the Mustang GT is $32,100 or $36,100 with the Premium package. That puts the starting price up about $1,000 over the previous generation for the V6, but the turbocharged four-cylinder starts about $1,400 less than the V6 Premium, which is no longer available. Prices for both V8 models jumped about $1,000, as well.
If you need the convertible Mustang, the V6 starts at $29,100, excluding destination, $1,590 more than last year. The Ecoboost Premium 'vert is $34,670, and the GT droptop is $41,600.
Mustang GT350 reveal coming Nov 17?
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Ford looks to have something really big planned for the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. The Blue Oval has released the first of five teaser videos on the brand's performance heritage, and aside from some great images of racers over the years, the video includes a series of teaser images, the last of which points to November 17, 2014.
That's the day before press days open in LA, and considering the propensity of global automakers to plan lavish debuts the night before a major international auto show, it's a virtual certainty that Ford will be showing off some sort of special vehicle.
That'd be news in and of itself, but based on the images shown in Ford's teaser video - which include an Alcantara steering wheel, a "Powered by Ford" valve cover, aluminum pedals, sticky tires, a big, round exhaust tip, a honeycomb grille and a serious set of wheels - it seems very likely that Ford will be showing something performance oriented.
2014 Roush Stage 3 Mustang
Fri, 26 Jul 2013Up until now, it's been some years since I managed to get behind the wheel of the hot Mustangs tuned by the folks at Roush Performance. My memories of those vehicles are fond, as the Roush up-fits usually make for better-driving examples of the iconic Ford pony, with better-tuned suspensions, excellent short-shift kits and, of course, huge additions of power. The wake-your-neighbors aural characteristics of these cars have been nothing short of outstanding, too.
But in the years since my last experience with the Roush formula, Ford's own development team has churned out some pretty potent 'Stangs. We currently live in a world where the Blue Oval will sell you a Mustang with 662 horsepower from the factory, and the recently departed Boss 302 remains one of the best Mustangs - and best sports coupes - the Autoblog crew has ever driven.
So with great-driving and hugely powerful Mustangs coming straight off the line at Ford's Flat Rock Assembly Plant, does the Roush package still offer that extra special something to make it stand out? I spent a week with a Stage 3 coupe to find out.
