1963 Ford Falcon Ranchero Deluxe Original Factory 260 V8 3 Speed on 2040-cars
Redding, California, United States
Up for your consideration is a RARE 1963 Ford Falcon Ranchero Deluxe, after doing some research there is thought to be only about 200 of these left! How many with the original running gear is any ones guess! The Truck is pretty much original, a few changes have been made. It was born Corinthian White (exterior), Red Crush Vinyl and White Crush Vinyl (interior) with a bench seat.***note***the color on the inside of glove box door is original. The exterior paint was two toned some time in its life, bucket seats were added (should have a bench seat), mirrors, hubcaps, radio/speakers changed. If one wanted it would not take too much to bring back to stock. If you look up the VIN DECODER it will tell you what it was born with. I will list the codes for the running gear. Engine: C30E-6015B 4.3 L Windsor 260 V8 Transmission: C3AB-7006 Bell Housing: C3AA6394C Rear End: C70W-A 3:25:1 What I know, the Motor was rebuilt some time in its life, mileage unknown, but runs good. Floor pans have been replaced. There was rust around the rear quarters and I had them professionally repaired with metal, (welded) not bondo. Paint was some what touched up, but needs to be professionally done. There are a few dents, scrapes, dings etc. Fine as a driver, but I think this survivor deserves a full restoration. Grill, bumpers, light housings are not the greatest. Don't get me wrong this Truck is pretty strait! New parts: Tires, clutch, battery, carb, fuel pump, distributor, wires, export brace, idler arm the truck was aligned and brakes were good. Yes it runs, drives and stops, current CLEAN title, lights and blinkers work. Known things that it needs: heater hooked, windshield wiper motor hooked up, horn doesn't work! Shifter has worn (original) but operates, speedo is not accurate (jumps around), carpet and seats reupholstered and probably a few other things that I don't know about! All in all this is a nice driver or an excellent candidate for a full restoration! The Truck will be available for viewing @ Kool April Nights car show, Redding, Ca. From today till Sunday the 27. It is also for sale locally. Being sold as is where is if you have any questions you may call me direct, Mark @ (530) 356-0762 If you have any shipping questions you may call: Miller Auto Transport Broker, Bill Miller @ (530) 945-6973 He is here in Redding and I have used him a few times before. |

Ford C-Max, Fusion hybrids subject of MPG lawsuit in California
Fri, 01 Mar 2013A California lawsuit over the fuel economy claims for the 2013 Ford C-Max was first reported back in December. Based on the numerous reports we've heard of disgruntled owners failing to get their car's EPA fuel economy ratings on the C-Max and 2013 Fusion Hybrid, we suspected there would be more to this story. The Detroit News is reporting that two California law firms are combining their lawsuits against Ford on this matter for "false and misleading" claims.
The article states that there are hundreds of C-Max and Fusion Hybrid owners who have joined the lawsuit, but the issue isn't limited to customers. In December, Consumer Reports extensively tested both the Fusion Hybrid and C-Max and found that both hybrids performed significantly worse than their EPA claims. This all comes just a few months after Hyundai and Kia took the unprecedented step of lowering the fuel economy ratings for all of their 2012 and 2013 model-year vehicles.
This 2,000-hp Mustang is in serious need of wheelie bars
Tue, 25 Feb 2014The Ford Mustang on the right is drag racing with the standard technique. The Mustang on the left, driven by David Measell, is using a new "rear bumper only" technique that evidently surprised everyone at the South Georgia Motorsports Park strip - including Measell.
Measell said his outfit just bought the car the week before the event, noting that it has more than 2,000 horsepower. Speaking of his "flying" run, Measell said, "We turned it up to dip on down," by which he meant they turned up the power in order to get his time down. Turns out all that power and all that traction sent the nose straight up into the air almost as soon as the race began.
He told an interviewer afterward that this was his first race in a "regular car" since he normally drives a pro-mod. "I like my wheelie bars," he concluded. You can see how he got there in the video below.
