 For Sale, a very nice 1961 Ford Ranchero with 200 straight 6 engine. This little truck is ready for the road. The engine was rebuilt when we got this truck for our son in 1999. Has low mileage on the engine. When the engine was rebuilt the odometer was at approx. 41,000 miles and it is now at 50,978. A little less than 10,000 miles on the engine. I have the Pink in hand.

Our son drove it for a year and a half, then got a 1966 Mustang Fastback, so the truck went into storage in 2003. May 2013 we brought it out of storage and had it completely checked out. The miles on the rebuild consisted of him driving back and forth to high school for about a year and a half and me driving around town for the last year. The body is straight and the floors sound.

When we brought it back the engine was complete checked and seals replaced, brakes completely replaced, radiator pressure tested, gas tank cleaned and re-coated, new carpet and seat reupholstered, new starter and electric ignition put in. Carburetor was replaced and much more. The paint is in pretty good shape and would not need immediate painting. I have all the receipts for work done on this truck. We have receipts for all the work we have had done on this truck.  Floor is sound, floor has not been cut and replaced.

It has a new radio (retro shaped) that fit right into the space. The radio has a auxiliary jack so you can connect your MP3 player or phone. Oh yeah, it has 3 on the tree.
We have receipts for all work done on this truck since we purchased it in 1999.  If you live in the Orange County/Los Angeles County area and would like a closer look, please contact me and we can make arrangements for that.  Thank you for your interest.

This work was done when we brought the truck out of storage, where it had been in a garage and covered for 10 years. It is  a sweet ride. If you have any questions or concerns please contact me before bidding. If you want additional pictures please ask.  The vehicle is 99% rust free. There are a couple of small areas where the cab meets the bed and along the lower edge of the tailgate, where all these vehicles tend to get rust. If I was going to keep this vehicle I would have the bed and tail gate sprayed with rhino skin.  I am selling it because my knees don't like the shifting anymore and in Southern California, there is a lot of shifting to drive the streets here.  If you live in the Orange County/Los Angeles area and would like to look it over please contact me and we will make arrangements for that.  Thank you for your interest.

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.
