Link to video for phone users: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=l-FYx5j7mQk Here is a rare 1970 Ranchero GT with a factory N code 429. One of 296 N code Ranchero GT's. Originally White with dark red interior. Not only is a factory 429 but it is loaded with rare factory options including: C6 automatic, 3.25 31 spline axle with Nodular case, power steering, power disc brakes, bucket seats, console, in dash tach, hidden headlights, heavy duty suspension, dual racing mirrors and rimblow steering wheel. All these options are verified by the Marti report. The laser stripes are not listed on the Marti but obviously they are correct and look fantastic. The Magnum 500’s are also not original but period correct. This Ranchero was owned by the same gentleman from 1975 until 2013. It was sold new in Everett, WA and spent its whole life within 15 miles of that dealer. It was repainted about 7 years ago in the correct white and has been driven sparingly since then. Paint is good driver quality and the car is straight with no dents or visual rust. Since it has not been driven there is really no chips or scratches to speak of. The paint in the bed was just a quickie spray since the previous owner was going to rhino line it but fortunately never got around to it. Hideaway grill is in nice condition. Chrome is decent but is original and not perfect. There are a couple small dings in the rear bumper. Glass is good. Laser stripes look very nice, however there is some fading on the tailgate stripe. It had lower quarters replaced when it was repainted but it looks like they did a pretty decent job. There is some bodywork showing in front of the left rear wheel down low. Not too noticeable unless you look close. Underside looks decent, it does have some rust on the floors on the driver's side. Some small holes in the driver's front floor and rear floor that look like they have been filled with something from above. There is a hole in the compartment under the bed on the driver's side that is accessible from the back of the cab, maybe the size of a baseball. Frame rails all look good.. Magnums look like new, rear tires are 245/60r15 and look like new, front tires are 235/60r15 look pretty good. The interior is original and needs to be restored. The upholstery is torn, dash is cracked and carpet is worn. Headliner is pretty good but is shrinking and pulling from the back window. Console is in pretty good shape. The non #’s matching 429 was rebuilt and has less than 5k miles, as was the C6 transmission. Motor runs great and trans works well. Has new Holley carb. It has headers and exhaust that exits in front of rear wheels .It’s a bit load and personally I would run exhaust all the way out the back. Original 3.25 nodular case 31 spline rearend is present and works well. Lights, tach, wipers, heater etc all work. Steering has quite a bit of play and I would recommend a steering box before driving it any distance. Hideaways would not stay down when car was shut off so I unhooked the spring (spring still there, you can reconnect it if you want), now the lights won't open. I think it needs a switch and I have included another one. Brakes work well. Other than the steering box this is ready to go. This is a very rare Ranchero and one that has had much of the expensive work already done. You can rebuild the steering box and drive and enjoy it as is or restore the interior and some other minor work and bring this to the next level. Either way you have a great looking, factory big block car for a fraction of the cost of most big block muscle cars. In fairness to all bidders I will not disclose my reserve. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Car is sold as is where is. I have done my best to describe it accurately but please understand that it is 40+ years old and still needs some restoration work done. It is available for inspection by appointment. International buyers welcome. Any bidder with a feedback rating of less than 10 must contact me before bidding or bid will be cancelled. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. Car must be paid for in full within 5 days of auction end (no paypal.) Car must be picked up within 21 days of auction end unless prior arrangements are made. |

Ford gets colorful with Mustang anniversary infographic
Thu, 24 Oct 2013Preparing to celebrate its 50th birthday, the Ford Mustang has seen a lot of vehicle trends come and go, and this especially goes for paint colors. Using historical production data, Ford has managed to create an infographic dating back to 1967 that breaks down the three top Mustang colors for each year as well as calling out some of the more interesting trends and colors over the years.
Over its five generations, the Mustang has been offered in a seemingly endless rainbow - from Playboy Pink in '67 and color-changing Mystichrome on the 2004 Cobra - but the most popular has always been red, which is the color of choice for 21 percent of all Mustangs ever made. Almost every year since 1967, red has been among the top three colors for the Mustang, but other popular colors have included blue, white, brown and, most recently, black. There are even websites and registries available for people owning certain-color Mustangs.
As the all-new 2015 Mustang gets ready for its debut later this year, there's no telling what kind of exciting and/or wacky colors Ford has in store. Click on the image above to see the full infographic (choose the "large" option for optimal viewing), or check it out in a smaller size along with the press release posted below.

2016 Ford Shelby GT350 First Drive [w/video]
Thu, Aug 27 2015Red meat. America's signature protein has necessarily violent origins. Slaughter, butcher, open flames and iron – you don't need a recently lapsed vegetarian (me) to lay it out for you. Of course the blood and the cuts are all part of the appeal, a reminder with every forkful of beef that we still like to be visceral creatures in an increasingly sanitized world. There is much in the makeup of Ford's Mustang that matches these carnivorous tendencies. Not only does it offer a hint of violence with potential for speed every time the engine kicks over, it's also the motive meal we Americans salivate over more than any other. Ford's pony car is among the most popular car searches online, year in and year out, and truly special versions stress servers and storm forum spaces when they hit the streets. I'll be honest, I've been just as frothed and drooling to see and drive the 2016 Ford Shelby GT350 as the rest of you netziens, too. Engineers have hacked and carved away at the stock car, to make a wicked V8 morsel that's bloody-minded and racetrack ready. The flat-plane crank V8 revs to the moon and sounds like a supercar when spinning hard. The palpitating heart of newest Shelby is a 5.2-liter, naturally aspirated V8 engine that bucks the current, popular trends for performance cars, while also breaking new ground for Ford. Fast cars from all over the world have made impressive numbers using turbos and superchargers in recent years, but Ford wanted revs to make its racing machine go right. So the company tossed out the forced-induction formula, and created a flat-plane crank V8 that revs to the moon and sounds like a supercar when spinning hard. The light, strong crankshaft reduces inertial mass in the engine and allows for a mind-blowing redline at 8,250 rpm. Perhaps more importantly it makes for beautiful rising wave of available torque as one digs deeper into the throttle, which feels like fast magic when doing something like climbing the hill to The Corkscrew at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. At 526 horsepower and 429 pound-feet of torque, some 102-hp per liter, there's enough power for staggering acceleration whenever you ask for it. Providing, of course, you keep the pot boiling at three grand or more. To call the power delivery below that mark "weak" would be ludicrous, but it does feel more inert there than the cars in the turbo-quick jet set that's so popular these days.
