California vehicle, with original black plates (not a YOM replacement)

1963 Ford Ranchero, first year of the 260 cubic inch V8 (one of approximately 2,225). Bench seats, column shift. Deluxe dash pad is in perfect condition.

Over $22K spent on restoration. Trim is complete, rechromed and is in show condition. Vehicle is very fast, reliable and fun to drive.

A brand new engine (not rebuilt) with Edelbrock aluminum heads was installed about 6,000 miles ago (original 260ci engine not available) . The exhaust sound is pure music to your ears with the dual exhaust and headers.

The suspension has been reworked to minimize bump steer and maximize performance with fun. Front disc brakes, Granada conversion and it stops on a dime.

Floor pans have been replaced, the underside is very nice. Cowling does not leak. Bed is in very nice condition. Heater completely restored. Interior is very stock with the original bench seats and jack+spare tire behind the seat.

Deluxe AM radio installed (not hooked up -- unknown condition) . I listen to MP3's over the dual voice coil speaker installed in the stock speaker mount..

This is an easy car to drive and inexpensive to insure and maintain.

I've owned the car for about a year, had a recent surgery and cannot keep all my toys anymore. I will miss this car. I am driving this car, so the miles will go up a bit.

Mulally wanted to kill Lincoln as late as last year, Fields vows to turn it around

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Lincoln fans might want to give incoming Ford CEO Mark Fields a pat on the back for having a hand in saving the brand from the chopping block last year. He's among the people spearheading the rejuvenation of the division away from its stodgy image to appeal to younger customers.
According to two unnamed sources speaking to Bloomberg, CEO Alan Mulally was ready to kill Lincoln last year. Following the slow production ramp-up of the MKZ combined a with a costly ad campaign, Mulally was frustrated and openly suggested dropping the brand. However, Fields and Jim Farley, Ford's marketing boss, convinced the CEO that the brand was worth saving. They also created a plan to prevent similar problems for new models in the future.
It seems that one part of the strategy may involve waiting until new models are at dealers before starting a big ad campaign for them. Lincoln global director, Matt VanDyke, recently told Autoblog that the division is holding off on a full marketing push behind the new MKC crossover to prevent the supply problems that plagued the MKZ last year. Its big offensive begins in the fall when the CUVs are at all of the dealers and consumers are at home watching more TV. VanDyke also told Bloomberg that Fields, Farley and Joe Hinrichs, Ford president of the Americas, have more direct oversight over new product launches now.

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.
