A beautiful 1989 Ford Ranger XLT 4X4. Air Condition, Automatic with overdrive, 2.9 EFI engine, Pioneer receiver with CD, Carver amp, Morrel speakers with separate tweeters. Most of these little Rangers, especially the 4X4s, were ridden hard and put away wet. So it is near impossible to find one in good condition. This is one that has been exceptionally well cared for . It has spent its entire life in the Ft. Myers area being purchased new by a local fireman in Pt. Charolette. In 1992, with 34,000 miles on it, it was purchased by a good friend of mine, John, and after 20 years of owing it and 20 years of being married he decided to restore it so he and his wife could enjoy it another 20 years.. Now John is one of those guys that everything has to clean and neat. He owns an air conditioning business, and when you open his van, everything is in place, nice, neat, clean. You can see this kind of mentality in the restoration of the Ranger. Its like who does that to an 89 Ranger??? Just one example, instead of the ugly original fiber hood liner, John found one that is the same as used as firewall liner on aircraft,??? who does that??? You can see how nice it looks in engine bay pic. He pulled the engine out and sent it to Hoods Machine Shop, to have it completely machined and re built. The transmission was rebuilt at Kustom Transmission. New ceramic coated exhaust installed by Midas Muffler. The seat was sent to Wade Cuff where it was covered completely in Leather. The interior also has new carpet, headliner, and dash cover. The door panels are original as well all dash components, and as you can tell are like new, including the gauges, bezel, and the woodgrain trim. The truck was then given a beautiful paint using Dupont Chromabase Ford Blue Flame Effect and Ford and Ford Silver Ingot Effect, if you look at the close up pics. you can see the beauty and quality of the paint. The bumpers are original and look great , the wheels are also original and were cleaned and detailed, the tires are-- Michelin LTX--, you can see he spared no expense. The front grill is new as are the lights, the original tailgate panel was powder coated as it had become dull. Well now John had a beautiful like new Ranger again. Along with some of the receipts we have, we estimate he spent well over $11,000. on the restoration. Only problem he was transferred to New York and was not able to bring the truck with him so he sold it. I now have the truck, and recently took it on a round trip from Ft Myers to West Palm Beach. Every thing works and runs great, the engine runs perfectly with plenty of power, the truck rides and handles perfectly, A.C ran cold, the pioneer stereo sound great. The wipers and new seals worked perfectly as it poured down rain on the way back. Four wheel drive engages, automatically, and works as it should. The only thing I know of not working at this time is water temp guage, and I will fix this, as it probably is the sending unit. The entire restoration was completed late last year and has been driven less than 500 miles. Truck is sold as-is. You can call me at 239-340-0443. We have set a very conservative reserve, so don't miss the opportunity to own this beautiful truck!!.

Here's the new face of the Ford Ranger

Thu, Nov 27 2014

Ford Asia Pacific has put a teaser video on YouTube showing off details on the 2015 Ranger pickup, and at the end we get a quick glimpse of the whole truck. This is the T6 Ranger that we still don't get in North America, but that shares its underpinnings with the Everest SUV recently introduced at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum. The Ranger gets a chunkier front end than the Everest, identified by its grille with three floating slats, reminiscent of designs on the previous F-150, and a less-stylized lower front bumper. Ford says it will be smarter, safer, smoother and stronger, but we'll have to wait for its reveal to find out what that means. Meanwhile, you can admire its new looks in the video below.

An amazing Group B rally car collection heads to auction

Tue, Jan 26 2021

Kicking off in 1982, the Group B era spawned some of the most fearsome rally cars of all time. The technologically advanced pioneers of all-wheel drive and turbocharging defined a time when automakers had carte blanche to build machines with unrestricted power, without the burden of homologating a large number of road cars to qualify. The results were sometimes deadly, leading the FIA to ban the class after 1986. Now, a collection of seven Group B monsters is headed across the block in Paris as part of the Artcurial auction, held in partnership with France's famed Retromobile show. The show has been delayed to June, however. There's a 1985 Peugeot 205 Turbo 16, one of 20 Evo II models that helped the company achieve two championships in Group B's short run. This particular example was driven by world champion Timo Salonen at the 1986 Swedish Rally, where it finished seventh due to an oil filter seal failure. Bruno Saby subsequently drove it at the 1986 Tour de Corse and Peugeot entered it at the 1986 Acropolis Rally as well. It's still registered to Peugeot Talbot Sport and represents a French technological achievement, according to Artcurial, comparable to the Concorde or TGV train. Representing Italy are a pair of Lancias in the iconic Martini livery. The Lancia 037 helped Bel Paese clinch its only Group B victory in 1983, after a hard-fought rivalry with Audi. It's one of the few Group B cars that weren't AWD, achieving its success the old-fashioned way, through lightness and superb handling. A second Lancia, a 1986 Delta S4, was the culmination of the Italian firm's later Group B efforts and one of Saby's favorites. While Group B was no more in 1987, the S4 was the predecessor to the Delta Integrale that would dominate WRC from 1987 through 1992. While the collection also includes greats like a Ford RS200, Renault 5 Maxi Turbo, and MG Metro 6R4, the centerpiece is the Audi Quattro Sport S1. The ultimate Group B machine, it introduced all-wheel-drive and turbocharging to the sport. It also employed the wildest use of wings and air dams to generate downforce. Tunable up to 590 horsepower, it could rocket to 60 mph in about three seconds. The car offered for sale came straight from Ingolstadt, a 1988 model built for the Race of Champions of ex-Group B cars. The collection was amassed in the late 80s and early 90s, not long after Group B's dissolution.
