 This is a nice 1963 Ranchero. It is a daily driver and in excellent condition. The bed looks to be rust free and is coated. I will include the toolbox that is in the bed and of course, the spare. The tires are new and on 13" wheels. It was originally a 3 speed on the column and was converted to floor shift. It is a 170 6 cylinder car which is by no means, a hot rod, but gets where it is supposed to go and gets great gas mileage. I don't see any rust areas under the car. The odometer reads 27+K but I have no idea if that is accurate or not. The engine compartment is clean, it was originally an air conditioned car, but the compressor is gone. Many of the other parts are there and could be added, but I can't imagine running air with this motor. Windows are good, and work like they should. Turn signals and lights work properly. Brakes are good. Radio does not work, but is there. Whomever painted the dash, did not get completely under it...it looks great until you lay on the floor and look up, but that's easy to fix. Car starts right up and drives wherever you want it to go. I know that the car was built in San Jose, California and spent most of it's life in California, somehow made it's way to Kansas City where I picked it up. The tailgate works properly and is in excellent condition. There are a few spare parts in the toolbox. Now...for the bad (but it's not that bad). Someone replaced the dome light lens with a funny looking one...I will try to find the proper one. The transmission will not downshift from 3rd to 2nd or 2nd to first for some reason. This just popped up and I have an appointment next Weds. to see what the deal is. I suspect it may be the synchronizer. It does not affect the way the car shifts or drives, just gets annoying when you try to downshift. The red striping is pin striping, not paint, but still looks great. Radio does not work. That's about it. Please email me with questions if you have any. I have to sell this because I have too many cars. 10 cars, 2 drivers...is too many. I have looked this car up on NADA and KBB and Hagerty valuation tools and my reserve is WAY under what they say that the car is worth. In fact, I tried to insure it for 6K with Hagerty and they said they would not insure it for less that 11K because they would be doing me a dis-service. I believe this to be an unusual hard to find car in this condition. It is also fun to drive and has won a trophy in the only car show I put it in.
I will not ship the car. Buyer is responsible for pickup, or when paid in full to have some shipper pick it up for them. There are many shippers out there that will ship for a dollar a mile or less.  I would like to have $500 down payment when the auction closes and the balance paid upon inspection of the car, or before it is picked up. PayPal, or cash is fine.  If you are successful bidder and come to inspect it in person and don't want it, I will refund your down payment, less the eBay fees that I have to pay.

New 2020 Ford Explorer, Lincoln Aviator recalled for minor safety issues

Wed, Aug 7 2019

Ford has announced a small recall on 2020 Explorers and 2020 Lincoln Aviators. Select units might be missing a manual park release cover, while others might have instrument clusters stuck in Factory Mode. The recall affects 14,135 SUVs in total.  While a vehicle is in production in a manufacturing facility, Ford might put them in what is known as Factory Mode to help reduce battery drain. Affecting the instrument cluster, this mode disables warning alerts, warning chimes, and does not show the PRNDL gear selector display. Ford says one vehicle was in an accident at a production facility as a result of the issue, but nobody was injured.  Separately, Ford found that some of these Explorers and Aviators might be lacking a manual park release cover. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards require a manual park release cover that is only removable with a tool. Without the cover, there is a very minor chance the manual park release could be accidentally actuated, which could allow the vehicle to move on its own.  The recalls affect 13,896 vehicles in the U.S. and 239 in Canada. The Explorers were built between March 27, 2019, and July 24, 2019. The Aviators were built between April 10, 2019, and July 24, 2019. Owners can use Ford's recall number 19C06, and if affected, can take their vehicles in for fixes.

Focus STs for SEMA include Lotus and Gulf liveries, rally-fied police car

Tue, 22 Oct 2013

Ford, as we mentioned on Saturday, is pulling out all the stops for November's SEMA show, bringing 57 vehicles to the Las Vegas event. Ford will be staggering the release of its SEMA flotilla, though, so expect to hear a lot about the new additions to the fleet in the weeks to come. We already showed you the Fiesta, Fiesta ST and Mustang models that made up the first batch of SEMA cars. Next up, we have a quartet of modded Focus STs joining Ford's SEMA roster.
Our first Focus ST (pictured above) sports the legendary livery of Gulf Racing. The orange-on-blue scheme, which Ford helped make famous at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, has been updated for 2013, with a more vibrant blue. This ST was built by Universal Technical Institute, while the exterior was done by Neil Tjin of Tjin Edition. Side exhausts, a Vortech supercharger and a Motiv Concepts high-flow cat allow the ST to breathe a bit easier, while Forgestar wheels contrast well with the iconic paint scheme.
Focus ST number two has been done-up by PM Lifestyle and is inspired by "Southern California car culture." Sporting a sleek, pale blue paint job, there's also no shortage of carbon fiber on the car's exterior. The 2.0-liter, turbocharged, four-cylinder engine has been massaged by the likes of Banks Power, COBB Tuning and Ford Racing, while the suspension is wearing a shiny, new set of coilovers and sway bars. The meaty brakes, tucked behind 19-inch, Rotiform wheels, come from Wilwood, while the cabin has been fitted with a pair of Sparco Chrono seats and five-point, Schroth harnesses.

Techstars Mobility brings transportation startups to Detroit

Thu, Jun 4 2015

A new tech incubator is looking to combine the Motor City's automotive history with its evolving tech startup landscape. "Techstars Mobility, Driven by Detroit" kicks off its first round with 10 startups next week. Techstars is an established accelerator network with incubators around the world, and Detroit is a new addition. The projects center around mobility in some form, be it improving vehicles, moving goods, or working cars into the sharing economy in new ways. In return for a percentage stake in each company, Techstars provides mentorship, access to experts, seed money, and a collaborative environment. One startup we're particularly excited about is Motoroso. This site is like Pinterest for the car-obsessed, with boards replaced by garages that can contain photos and links to other projects. The site lets you follow brands – Chevy, Porsche, Ducati, and others already have profiles – as well as other users. For the Autoblog editors, Motoroso provides a new way to share stories, photos, and video, as well as a way to discover new products and interesting DIY projects. Take a look at the Autoblog profile and wander around the site to check things out. Another one of the startups, Classics & Exotics, is helping owners of interesting cars and would-be drivers connect in an Airbnb-style distributed rental program. Think of it as an auction catalog you can drive. Renters can specify the price, mileage, minimum driver age, and availability. Similar to Airbnb, Classics & Exotics provides each vehicle owner with $1 million in liability and damage protection. The company also vets renters for added peace of mind. Sounds like fun, and a cheap way to avoid a costly Craigslist or eBay mistake. Along similar shared-economy lines comes SPLT, a ride-sharing platform that finds people going where you're going and lets you hop in a car and split the costs. It's aimed at commuters but also has great applications for those looking for occasional one-way rides somewhere. SPLT notes that the system is a good way to meet new people – hopefully, good new people. Depending on how well SPLT keeps sketchy rides and riders out of the system, this could be a solid alternative to services like Uber and Lyft. This Techstars Mobility class has backing from corporate sponsors, including Ford, Honda, Magna, Dana, Verizon Telematics (Verizon has an offer pending to buy AOL, our parent company), and McDonald's.
