This Ranchero was a one owner car until I purchased 2012. It spend it whole time in Carlsbad, Ca. The vehicle went into storage sometime in 1997 or 98, owner not sure. I have all receipts dateing back to 1983 up to 1996. The last recorded mileage was 89286. Today mileage is 91268. I have receipts for over $1000.00 that I spent getting the car updated. All receipts will go with the vehicle. Here is a list of most of the installed. All fluids, oil, water, brake fluid and trans fluid. Power steering control valve and pump. Shift collar, battery, turn signal switch, power steering hoses (2), Head light switch, Fuel tank fill hose, radiator over flow tank, neutral safety switch, lighter, driver side window regulator, glove box and other miscellaneus items. This car also has a trailer hitch.
What it need machinicaly it may need a fuel sending unit or the wires going to sending unit is problem. I did test the fuel gauge and it is working using a test system. The carburetor needs adjusting. The lower DS door hinge need a spring which will go with the car. The clock does not work. The radio works fine.
After getting the car running it starts on first try with just one pump. It drives very nice except for a slight hesitation on fast acceleration. This is why I think the carb needs adjusting. It drives true and straight and feel strong and is quiet. The tires look new but were purchased sometime before 4/1/93
The body looks original with only three small problems. The only rust is a strip on the tailgate that holds tailgate panel on at the bottom. The strip is about 1 inch wide and the length of the tailgate. It is screwed on and should be replaced. There is a dent on the right rocker panel. see picture, and a repair done on the right rear over the wheel well that could have been done better. I took a picture but I don't think it shows in the picture. The car was repainted in Feburary 1993 as receipts show. There are a few chips and a spot where the paint has come off, it is about roughly 2 x 5 inches. The floor pants show NO signs of rust as well as the body. The interior is missing one arm rest and could use new door panels and seat covers.
California black plates not included in sale......
I've done my best to describe the car and if you have any questions please ask.
It is a very good daily driver and a good starting point for restoration which I was planning, but due to health problems at 72 years old I no longer can do any work.

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost already hitting 12-second quarters
Sun, 28 Sep 2014The arrival of a new Ford Mustang means many things to many people, but not least of them is drag racers. The pony car has always been a mainstay of the drag strip, and the Ford Racing team aims to carry that reputation forward with this latest generation. So it cooked up a few basic modifications on three new 'Stangs and headed to the strips at US 131 and Milan Dragway to see what they could coax out of 'em.
Impressively, the 5.0-liter V8 Mustang GT with a few modifications (but no forced induction) managed to clock a quarter-mile time of 11.77 seconds. Another Mustang GT fitted with a supercharger clocked a blistering 10.97 seconds. But just as intriguing was the modified EcoBoost model that, with only four cylinders and 2.3 liters of displacement, still passed the gates in just 12.56 seconds - nearly half a second better than expected. This with modification limited to a new subframe, half-shaft, drive shaft loops, exhaust, engine calibration, slicks, roll cage and bucket seat. Well done, boys.
Ford pits Cobra Jet versus GRC Fiesta ST, worlds collide
Thu, 31 Oct 2013Racing takes on many forms in the automotive world. There are sanctioned events that are as varied and diverse as NASCAR, Formula One, Global Rallycross and drag racing, and to be good enough to win competitively in one discipline, you need to have a specialized vehicle. Or do you?
Ford decided to find out what would happen when its Global Rallycross Fiesta ST, driven by Tanner Foust, lined up against its Mustang Cobra Jet drag racer, driven by Roy Hill. In one lane, Tanner has just 2.0 liters of displacement to work with, while Roy has more than double that, at 5.0 liters. Evening the playing field a bit, Tanner has a massive turbocharger and all-wheel drive; Roy has to filter all his supercharged power through the rear wheels only.
So, who wins? We suggest you see for yourself in the press release and video below. And we're holding out hope that Tanner's challenge at the end results in another video from Ford Racing...
Project Ugly Horse alive and kicking at Road & Track
Thu, 29 Aug 2013The hallways of the Autoblog campus are much quieter now that Zach Bowman has taken his prose, along with his welders, wrenches and hammers, over to the digital pages of Road & Track, but that doesn't mean our favorite project Mustang is gone forever. Project Ugly Horse is still coming along, and Zach has gifted us another update on his unfoxy Fox Body.
Last we saw of the Ugly Horse, Zach was strengthening up the '89 Mustang's chassis as he prepares to stuff the turbocharged, direct-injected EcoBoost engine of a Ford Focus ST under the hood. First things first, the old mill must go. Head on over to Road & Track to catch the latest chapter of Project Ugly Horse.
