Description:
This lovely 1965 Ford Ranchero is equipped with the powerful and peppy 289ci V8. The bodylines are phenomenal, and she tracks straight as you go down the road. The mileage is believed to be 36,000 and the interior does seem to hold this true. The Paint is glossy and the suspension has been recently freshened up. Interior is in pristine condition and is comfortable with no rips or tears. She has brand new Pony wheels with Brand new tires. (still showing nubs) She is ready to be driven daily.
Exterior:
The exterior is in great shape for its age, the paint is glossy and shows very well. The underside is solid, and the pan is solid as well. Has several bubbles showing on the rear fenders, but they are not going through the panel(you can push on them and they are not brittle) Body lines are straight and the gaps are just as they were from factory. There are no signs of stress or wear on the front or rear impact zones. All bright work looks good, other than the rear window chrome, as it has flaked off. This is a solid car with no surprises. You will not find one for this price in this condition anywhere in the USA. The bed is in great shape and does not have any rust showing.
Drivetrain:
The motor and transmission are in excellent shape! The cruise-o-matic transmission shifts firmly and the motor has plenty of power with no smoke or hesitation. She starts up every time with no issues. This vehicle is equipped with power steering and it does help quite a bit. Front end has been professionally freshened up with new bushings and tie rod ends. New adjustable air shocks in the rear for added comfort. Rear end is solid with no leaks and or funny sounds. You can safely take this vehicle on the highway. Brakes work as they should and this ranchero does not pull from side to side during brisk stopping.
Interior:
The Interior is just as good as the photos Portray, the whole interior is original, and the bench seat shows little to no wear. The Dash is flawless with no sun damage at all. All interior trim pieces are intact and are in fantastic shape. Seats fold and operate, as they should with zero binding. All gauges are operable and the gear selector indicator is showing the correct placement while in use. Dash is near perfect! Radio is inoperable, but does click when turned on. Heat does work, and all windows operate as they should with zero binding.
Key Issues:
-Radio is not operable -small bubbling on rear fenders -Small pitting on bright work -Overall this is a solid and strong vehicle that will last for many more years to come.

If you're wondering what type of person makes a good police officer, it seems a racecar driver doesn't. Let us rephrase that: Justin Bell, a racecar driver and the host of Motor Trend's World's Fastest Car Show, recently got behind the wheel of a 5.0-liter Ford Mustang police car with Sergeant Daniel Shrubb, co-founder of DRAGG (Drag Racing Against Gangs and Graffiti), and proved that his high-performance-driving skillset is a bit too aggressive for police duty. While it's easy to get carried away in a Mustang GT, a patrol car driver must maintain some sort of restraint while pursuing a criminal, so as not to come off as a reckless driver to the public. We'll admit, some pursuit techniques are counter-intuitive to performance driving (stay off the gas in a lane-change exercise?), but Bell's judicious use of the handbrake can't be normal procedure. Watch "The One With The Ford Mustang 5.0 Police Car" (yes, we caught the Friends reference too) below to see some shenanigans in one of Michigan's finest patrol cars.
Edge will be the first Ford-badged product to come standard with EcoBoost power. Ford officially unveiled the all-new, third-generation Edge today at its Dearborn home, announcing that the latest version of the popular crossover will ride on the same CD4 architecture that underpins the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ. The Edge will also be the first Ford-badged product to come standard with EcoBoost power.
This week Ford rolled out the 2014 Transit Courier, the fourth addition to its Transit range. Ford says its the first time for the nameplate in the compact van segment. "Ford has now completely transformed its commercial vehicle line-up, with four all-new, class-leading Transits for European customers," said Barb Samardzich, vice president of product development for Ford Europe. "With the all-new Transit range, we expect sales to grow to 400,000 units per year by 2016, well over 50 percent more than we sell today." When the Courier goes on sale in the Spring of 2014, it will offer more than 1,400 pounds of payload capacity, multiple mounting points for racks or other framework and a rear cargo area that can carry items 5.3 feet-long. An optional folding passenger seat boosts the cargo length to 8.5 feet.
