1958 Ranchero 390 V8 Auto Runs 7 Drives "rancher" Emblems on 2040-cars
Santa Clarita, California, United States
If I have not covered anything that is important to you let me know! I cant remember every detail or issue. I have several old cars that I play around with. I'll do anything I can to help you feel confidant in buying it. Check the vin for details. Door data code plate was painted over I did not remove the paint off it. Its hard to make out the details of it. Pretty sure it was originally white but total complete blue repaint. Door jams, dash etc. You can see even under the SS bed rail trims it was painted blue. I determined it because white was the last color before reaching the factory dark brown primer. I have uploaded as many pictures as I can. Choosing the ones that should matter the most. I have more available that I can send you via email/Txt. Or I'll take what you want me to. Simply put txt me and say you want more pic and of what and I will send them. This is a very cool Ranchero. The emblems that go on the rear area say RANCHER I don’t know why. Clean clear title in my name Tags good until 1/15 I was driving it 2/3 times a week around town mostly to lunch, or trying to be cool with a vehicle that not everyone has, until reverse became almost nonexistent/working. It works but you have to rev it high to get it to engage and go backwards. Has a 390 from what I don't know. I bought it that way. I'm pretty sure I have all the moldings and trim pieces. I have pictures that I can txt or email you to show how complete it was and the condition when I bought it. Basically to show that its all there. I obviously took some trim pieces off to strip the paint. I have the gas tank access door. Brand new 4core high flow brass radiator $400 Yup it has "some" rust, not a lot, but you know exactly how much, look at the pictures I can’t hide anything. I’ve removed most of the paint to prove it. The spare tire holder has 2 layers of sheet metal only the top layer is heavily rusted where the water would have drain down into the bottom layer which is where the 1inch hole is for the water to drain out. Rear bumper is slightly bent and has some rusty spots. It does bolt up to the brackets. Drivers upper door frame needs to be welded pic of problem. Windshield and pass door glass cracked broken Its 56 years old so not perfect but for the most part very solid. Not very many of these left in this condition. It took me a while to find this one. Who cares why I want to sell it, but if you really want to know, this is why. My son and I have moved on to 66 T-birds you can see in some of the pictures. Otherwise it would not be for sale. I don't care why you want to buy it. I only care that it sells. It can be picked up within 45 days after completing the sale, maybe longer if we talk about it. It is kept inside a temperature controlled garage. I also can take it to a shipper or transport if needed anywhere close to the Los Angeles area at no charge. There is a 75% chance that I’m driving to upstate NY to see my son play semi pro baseball and for a fee I can drop it off to you on my way. Probably leaving 2/3rd week in July. We can talk about it. Any question or concerns call me tom 661 286 1171. |

Ford wins second consecutive International Van of the Year award with Transit Connect
Wed, 18 Sep 2013The redesigned 2014 Ford Transit Connect isn't even on sale yet, but it's already making its presence felt around the world. At a commercial vehicle expo in Russia, the Transit Connect was named the International Van of the Year.
Ford's small work van edged out the new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter by just seven points to allow Ford to grab this honor for the second consecutive year, which it won last year with the Transit Custom. Not only does this make Ford the first to ever win the award in back-to-back years, but it's also the fifth time the automaker has won this award since 2003 (two with the Transit Connect, two with the fullsize Transit and once with the Transit Custom). Ford congratulates itself for the accomplishment in a press release posted below.
Hot Wheels Ford Transit Connect is worth more if we keep it in the box
Wed, 06 Nov 2013If the 2014 Transit Connect is anything like it's utile current-generation predecessor, and we suspect it is, it will undoubtedly be one of the most functional vehicles in North America. Ford has used the occasion of SEMA to turn the TC in to things that both make use of that functionality, and occasionally sort of wreck it in the name of good old-fashioned fun. The Ford Hot Wheels Transit Connect most certainly falls into that second category.
Most TC owners might cite the vehicle's massive cargo capacity as its top positive trait, though in the case of this wide-bodied Transit said space has been sapped in the name of a 55-inch television screen, a massive Hot Wheels drag strip (continuing a popular theme at SEMA this year) and custom storage for dozens of models from one's personal hot wheels collection. Designers have also plucked the grippy Recaro seats from the Focus ST, and thrown in a pair of 18-inch tablet screens for connectivity on the go.
Naturally, the Transit Connect wouldn't be an appropriate SEMA vehicle, or Hot Wheels name-bearer, if it weren't wearing an eye-popping appearance package. Additional homage to the Focus RS can be found in the blazing blue and orange front fascia and bumpers, while 20-inch wheels make sure the wider (four-inches in front and six-inches in the back) Transit Connect sits just right. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder-engine that powers the Hot Wheels TC ensures that the concept is more show than go, but you probably had that pegged from your first look, anyway.
2015 Ford Mustang already under recall, but just 53 units
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Ford has issued a small - but significant - recall for one of its spotlight cars: the 2015 Mustang.
The recall affects just 53 cars, with 50 in the United States and three in Canada. Ford said the passenger side safety belt buckle tension sensor may not have been calibrated properly by the supplier. This could lead to "misclassification" of the passenger seat occupant, and could cause the airbag to deploy improperly.
A Ford spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement, the automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries, and dealers will replace the buckle assembly at no cost to customers. The cars affected were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 18 to Oct. 2.
