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.

2016 Ford Explorer order guide revealed

Wed, Jan 21 2015

The configurator for the refreshed 2016 Ford Explorer is already up and running. However, if you're the type of person that really likes to dig into the nitty-gritty of a vehicle's features, then the order guide for this latest Ford is now available (pictured right). While the documents don't list fuel economy, engine power or pricing, they give a precise idea of all of the differences separating each of the five trim levels: Base, XLT, Limited, Sport and Platinum. In addition to the tweaked styling across the board, even the Base model now features a rearview camera with a washer. There are also three new colors available: Shadow Black, Blue Jeans Metallic and Guard Metallic. Base, XLT and Limited trims are available with either a 3.5-liter V6 or new, optional 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. All of them are mated to a six-speed automatic, and all-wheel drive is optional with either engine. The new Platinum trim basically loads the Explorer up with everything imaginable. Power comes from the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, matched with all-wheel drive. Plus, the Platinum trim gets standard luxuries like a dual-pane moonroof, adaptive cruise control, a premium sound system and Ford's super-soft Nirvana Leather covering the seats. There are also some new tech features throughout the rest of the lineup. For example, an updated auto-parking system is also available on the Limited but comes standard on the Platinum. Furthermore, a 180-degree front camera and second-row USB charging are optional on the Sport but are standard on the Limited and Platinum. Check out the gallery for even more of the changes.

Mustang-themed pinball game debuting in Chicago [w/video]

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

Believe it or not, but new pinball machines are still being made. Chicago-based Stern Pinball still makes them and has found a niche selling modern machines to individual buyers and arcade distributors. For its latest cabinet, Stern partnered with Ford to create a pinball game that pays homage to the 50th anniversary of the Mustang, including the next generation. The new machine is being unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6 and goes on sale in March.
Stern is offering the machine in three variants. The pro-level machine is meant for arcades and public spaces and retails for $4,995. All of them come with background and cabinet art by Camilo Pardo, who designed the Ford GT, and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust is the game's announcer. Depending on where players shoot the ball, they activate events that simulate drag racing, rallying, drifting and racing the Mustang, and hitting targets lets players shift the gears up and down.
An upgraded, premium table with added art will be added later for pinball machine collectors. The third model is a signed, special edition with art of the 1965 Mustang and 2015 Mustang on the machine and chrome and Mustang badges on the speaker grilles. Prices for these editions will be announced later.
