Up for sale my awesome looking Resto-Mod 1964  Ford Ranchero. 

 This classic has had extensive work to make it a fun dependable street cruiser. I'm 60 years old and don't beat the crap out of my cars. I have a clear Florida title in my name. The professional restoration was completed couple of years back (about 3500 miles) with much attention paid to the details. Everything is either two years old or newer. The engine alone has had over 10k worth of upgrades done to it. The red seats are customized and from a Saturn. The gauges are So-Cal and has a 200mph speedo. The I-Pod stereo has multiple custom mounted speakers including 12'' subwoofer and two amps custom mounted behind the seats. It has a custom built console that mounts the buttons for the power windows along with two Ford Racing (non working) gauges. The steering wheel has a (nose) pad from Rusty Wallace racing's son's bush team. The shifter is made from titanium. The gas, brake and clutch pedals are Eleanor Mustang. The car has A/C added to keep you cool in the hot summers. I can run this car all day in the Florida sun and it stays at 190 degrees.

It has a 1993 5.0 mustang Cobra engine & trans. with 75,000 miles. It has a Vortech Supercharger, Edelbrock aluminium heads, a Steeda camshaft, GT40 intake and finished out with polished Cobra valve covers . This car was dynoed at 440 rear wheel horsepower! Dyno sheet is in the glove box. The transmission is a T5 out of the mustang with a King Cobra clutch.

 The cooling system has been upgraded with a aluminium 4 core radiator and two electric fans. The exhaust consists stock exhaust manifolds and one magnatone muffler that make it sound awesome. The rear has 355 gears. The suspension has Shelby control arms, eibach sway bars, tie rods and is adjustable for racing.  Front disc brakes as well.

 The California body is amazing with original rust free floors and straight body panels. The only patch is under the bed floor where that panel comes off. That's where I have the two batteries mounted. The paint is 2001 Lexus grey metallic that really pops in the sunlight. The paint and body where done a couple years back when the full resto was performed and has a few chips and minor scratches (I pointed them out in the pictures, the one on the hood is the worst chip) that are expected from a true driver car but very hard to see unless you get right up on the truck. The Ranchero is sitting under some trees, That's what you see refelected in the hood. The Chevrons and chrome down the sides are painted on. The Lunchtimers on the doors are stickers and can be removed if you want to.

I own some rental apartments and have been using the Ranchero lately to haul stuff, That's why I need to sell it to get a bigger truck that I don't have to worry about scratching it.

 The bed has been coated with bed liner. It has an aluminium framed soft vinyl tonneau cover. The wheels are American Salt Flats 15'' front and 17" rears with low profile tires.  All the rubber seals, weather stripping and glass have been replaced throughout the truck and the chrome has been removed or powder coated. The taillights are LED and flash sequentially in a star pattern when you hit the brakes, Like the old Thunderbirds.

 

All in All this a great looking cruiser with creature comforts and dependability of newer cars that sounds like an true old school muscle car - a true Resto-Moded ride! please feel free to email me for more info, Pictures or to setup a time to check it out.

 

The horn doesn't work. I have it disconnected to run the steering wheel pad.

The speedometer is not hooked up it needs the T5 to older speedo cable adapter.

The turn signals don't work. I have the flasher hooked up to the brake lights so the brake lights flash instead.

As with any old car, its not a new car there might be some things you don't like or you would do different but I'm describing it as accurately and honestly as I can. So look at the pictures and ask questions if you aren't sure about something. Sold as-is. The car will not leave until all funds have cleared my bank. Will make it available for pick up or for your shipper. I can store it in my garage for 30 days after it's paid for.

Bid and bid often. It would hard to find another Ranchero like this

Ford EcoBoost V6 hits the dyno before hitting the track

Wed, 02 Oct 2013

Ford Racing just unveiled the Riley Daytona Prototype that will make its racing in the United SportsCar Racing Championship Rolex 24 at Daytona in January, and now it has released a video showing development of twin-turbo 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 that powers the car. Using the same block and heads that can be found on a production Ford Taurus SHO, this new racecar benefits from the collaboration between Ford Racing and Ford powertrain engineers.
While we still don't know what kind of power this engine is putting out, it has definitely gotten a workout at Ford's 17G dyno. This area deep within Ford allows the automaker's racing program to work hand-in-hand with production engine programs, which can be a benefit to racing operations and production cars alike. Scroll down to hear a few people from Ford talk about the crosspollination between its racing and engine teams and watch the EcoBoost get red hot on the dyno.

NHTSA closes book on Ford, GM probes of 600,000 vehicles

Thu, Nov 27 2014

US safety regulators have closed a pair of investigations into some 500,000 Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis and Marauder sedans built between 2004 to 2007, and 100,000 Chevrolet Impala models from 2014. The Ford investigation focused on rusting heat shields, which may become dislodged and jam the steering, according to Reuters. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that this happened very rarely. In fact, of the ten incidents filed with the government safety watchdog, six came from a single police department, which evidently had some sort of problem with its reporting. As for the Impala, the NHTSA investigators attributed two incidences of "unintended autonomous braking" to user error. In both cases, the vehicles were involved in rear-end collisions. According to GM investigators, it's believed that drivers accidentally activated the electric parking brake, causing the collisions. The vehicles in question were rental cars.

2015 Shelby GT bows in Scottsdale with 627 supercharged ponies

Mon, Jan 19 2015

Between the base V6, the EcoBoost turbo four, the eight-cylinder GT, the monstrous GT350 and the new GT350R (to say nothing of transmission and convertible options), muscle-car enthusiasts have a staggering array of Mustangs to choose from. And now there's one more as Shelby American has introduced the new 2015 Shelby GT. Building off the success of the 2007 Shelby GT and the 2013 follow-up, the new 2015 model was just introduced at the Ford booth at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, AZ. It's based on the latest Mustang GT (whether factory fresh or commissioned from an owner's existing pony car) but upgrades with an enviable list of enhancements from Ford Racing Performance Parts, Shelby's own upgrades and top-shelf third-party components. For starters, the engine is supercharged up to 627 horsepower (with over 700 available through further upgrades). It's got 3.73 gears, a Borla exhaust, WELD Racing wheels, Michelin tires and Wilwood six-piston front brakes. Visual enhancements include a carbon-fiber body-kit (including a two-piece rear diffuser) and billet aluminum front grilles. Designed from the get-go to be sold around the world, the 2015 Shelby GT is certified for use in all 50 states and comes with a Shelby American CSM number registered in the company's registry, but all those enhancements don't come cheap: Shelby's charging $39,995 for the new GT, and that's just for the modifications. Add that to the $32k sticker on a Mustang GT donor and you're looking at over $70k – which is not only more than Ford itself is expected to charge for its own GT350, but more than Dodge gets for a Challenger Hellcat.

(CSBI:PK), launched the first global Shelby GT muscle car, which is based on the all-new 2015 Ford Mustang GT. One of the most popular cars in Shelby history the 627 HP 2015 Shelby GT was unveiled today at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction in Ford Motor Company's booth. Shelby is now taking orders with delivery of cars planned for the beginning of the second quarter of 2015.
