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.

GMC Hummer EV SUV first drive, RIP Camaro, Ferrari Roma Spider | Autoblog Podcast # 773
Fri, Mar 24 2023In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by News Editor Joel Stocksdale. They start off with one of the week's biggest official news items — the impending death of the sixth-gen Chevrolet Camaro. On the subject of powerful American cars, they pivot to a teaser from Stellantis execs that there are big things ahead for its Dodge Charger SRT Daytona Banshee concept. From there, they look at Ferrari's new topless Roma and then get into Ford's multi-billion-dollar electric vehicle pivot. Speaking of expensive EVs, Joel just got back from driving the new GMC Hummer SUV. He also had the new F-150 Lightning Pro in his driveway, and that's followed by Greg's update on Autoblog's long-term Toyota Sienna. Autoblog Podcast # 773 Get The Podcast Apple Podcasts – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast in iTunes Spotify – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast on Spotify RSS – Add the Autoblog Podcast feed to your RSS aggregator MP3 – Download the MP3 directly Rundown News Chevrolet Camaro production will officially end after 2024 model year Dodge CEO teases more to come from Charger SRT Daytona Banshee Ferrari Roma Spider returns a front-engined soft top to the lineup Ford Model e losing billions as it says EV unit should be seen as startup What we're driving Ford F-150 Lightning Pro 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV 2023 Toyota Sienna Platinum AWD Feedback Email – Podcast@Autoblog.com Review the show on Apple Podcasts Autoblog is now live on your smart speakers and voice assistants with the audio Autoblog Daily Digest.

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
