1965 Ford Falcon Rancharo Deluxe. Milage 4708. I purchased this car in Feb. 2013 and this is the story that was told to me. This car was purchased new at Thompson Ford in Stillwater Okla. in Sept. 1965 by a lady named Barbara Hicks for her fiance ( name unknown) , and co-signed by her father. It seems after a couple weeks the said fiance showed less and less interest in the impending nuptials, and after running up a gas bill of over $200.00 dollars at a local gas station , also in Barbara's name( gas being about $.30 a gallon in 1965). The father decided to locate the gentleman and retrieve the vehicle , ( which in Okla. in 1965 might have included a good old country ass whup'n). Anyway, he located him in Guthrie Okla. and brought the car back to Stillwater. This is a factory C code car which means that it came with a 289 cu inch. engine (2V) with a 2 barrel carburetor, but it had a duel line Holly with a factory Ford aluminum 4 barrel intake which means that the dealership must have upgraded this engine. Needless to say this car is not going to get any milage over 10, and so Barbara must have realized this and parked the car behind her house under a pecan tree where it stayed for the next 40 years. This story was told to me my the next owner, Ed Whitehead, a very interesting character in in his own right with a lifetime of great stories to tell. Ed owns and runs "Ed Muffler and Tire Center" at 2929 Perkins Rd. Stillwater Ok. and gave me permission to pass along this story. Ed, to me seems to be in his 80's and an all around do anything kinda guy still very active in his businesses. He tells that sometime in 1999 he was doing some work for Barbara's neighbor and spotted the Rancharo in her backyard and inquired to her if the Ford was for sale. She said that he could have the car if he would build her a carport, so the deal was struck. Ed completed the job, but it seemed Barbara had second thoughts for some reason and reneged on the deal but paid him for his services. Time passed and sometime in 2006 Ed received a call from Barbara and ask if he was still interested in the little Ford. It seemed that Barbara was a heavy smoker and was suffering from lung cancer and had accumulated considerable medical bills. He was, and purchased the the car. Now I can tell you that I saw photos of Ed dragging the car out from under the pecan tree. Ed rebuilt the brakes and muffler system and replaced parts and drove the car a short while and also didn't like the gas milage and parked it at his business soon after. The milage reads, 4709 as of today and Ed swears that the milage is accurate. I hope that only truly interested buyers look up Ed's phone number and inquires about this story. This car still has a few dings and wrinkles and I'm not advertising it as a perfect show car, but it still get a lot of attention when it goes by.The Buy-it now price will include the Holly carburetor and manifold that I replaced with correct equipment.

Project Ugly Horse: Part IX

Thu, 20 Jun 2013

One Step at a Time
Nearly every flavor of exotic driveline has been shoved into the ubiquitous Ford at some point or another.
Chuck Schwynoch had been patiently listening to my ramblings on the other end of the phone for a solid half hour. I'm not too big of a man to know when to ask for help, and at this point, I desperately needed some assistance. The truth is, working on a machine like a Fox Body Mustang is as easy as breathing thanks to the wealth of information available on the web. Nearly every flavor of exotic driveline has been shoved into the ubiquitous Ford at some point or another, and odds are the sorry souls behind those builds shared the highs and lows of their torment with the internet community.

Ford sued over alleged 3.5-liter EcoBoost defects

Thu, 16 May 2013

Three Ford owners from Ohio have filed a lawsuit against the automaker over defects that they allege exist within the company's twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine. Automotive News reports that the lawsuit claims the engine "contained serious latent design, manufacturing, or assembly defects." Those defects, the suit claims, cause the vehicle to shake, misfire and lose power quickly.
Two of the plaintiffs, a married couple, own a 2010 Ford Taurus SHO, and allege they experienced a loss of power and stalling, while the third, an F-150 owner, claims he lost power while accelerating. In addition to the Taurus SHO and F-150, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine is also available in the Ford Flex, Explorer Sport and Lincoln MKT and MKS. Other three- and four-cylinder EcoBoost engines are not included in the suit. There have been no recalls associated with 3.5-liter V6 engine, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is currently not investigating the matter.
The plaintiffs, however, claim Ford has known about the problem, citing several technical service bulletins issued to dealers of the F-150 that suggest possible fixes. Ford had no comment for Automotive News, saying that it's yet to review the lawsuit, which was filed last Friday in Columbus, OH.
