Cleveland, Ohio, United States
5,242 miles (not actual) $1500 aluminum drive shaft C4 Transmission $800 Functional Fiberglass Hood Disc brakes Headers Dual exhaust Drag bars $800 aluminum radiator Special racing rear end Rebuilt engine with special heads and cam Electronic ignition Large carbonator Stereo system w/ CD player Hi, you’re looking at one beautiful, super fast 1963 Ford Ranchero. We purchased this car from a gentleman who is a certified GM mechanic with 40 years of experience. He built the entire car himself, spending over $12,000 for materials. He spent many years to complete the project. He took this Ranchero to car shows, and enjoyed it for a few summers. He sold the car because he is starting new projects on other cars, and now you have the opportunity to own this clean, crisp newly-built Ranchero. The doors have been shaven. The gas door also is shaved and is now located in the bed of the truck for safety. It has all new gauges. The body, as you can see in the pictures, is very, very clean. There is nearly no rust on the car. The underneath the car, as shown in the photos, is clean and solid. The interior was re-done from top to bottom and it makes an old car feel like new. It also has nice tires and wheels, as shown in the pictures. When this thing starts and runs, it’s not that loud, but it sounds really healthy. The transmission shifts correctly (and that was also re-built of course). All you have to do to enjoy this fine driving machine is to put the key in and go. This is a no-reserve auction, which means that when the auction is over, the last highest bidder wins the Ranchero. Everyone who sees this car absolutely loves it. It’s just not something that you see every day. That’s what makes it special and unique. If you have any questions about the car, feel free to call Lou Davis anytime at 216-210-8488. We are selling this car as-is because we are not a dealer, and we’re not offering a warranty. We encourage all bidders to either personally stop out or check the car out for themselves, or send a certified mechanic from the area to give you a complete report on the car’s condition. When the car is sold after 7 days, please call Lou in the morning to make arrangements to complete this deal. We only accept cash or wire transfers. We do not accept Paypal, charge cards or checks. We would like the car picked up within 7 days of auction ending because we would like to have the room, but we are keeping the car safe for you inside of a locked space. If the buyer has not contacted us within 24 hours of the auction ending we will offer it to the bidder below them as a Second Chance Offer. Thanks again for looking and reading, and good luck bidding. CLICK HERE TO VIEW DOZENS OF ADDITIONAL PHOTOS OF THIS BEAUTIFUL CAR! |

Top Gear pits Hennessey VelociRaptor vs. Range Rover Sport SVR
Fri, Jun 5 2015As a television series, Top Gear is in limbo with an intent to return, but no hosts yet. However, it's magazine and website continue to bring us clips like this one. While the video might lack the show's charismatic hosts, this is an opportunity to see a drag race between a Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR with 550 horsepower and a Hennessey VelociRaptor with 623 hp. The duel between these two supercharged V8s definitely sounds great. Both rugged models start at the line growling angrily at each other like dogs ready for a fight. You have to watch the clip to see whether the more powerful VelociRaptor feeds on the SVR, though.

Ford hiring 2,200 salaried US workers this year
Fri, 11 Jan 2013With its influx of popular new products made in the US, Ford Motor Company has announced that it intends to hire 2,200 new salaried workers domestically this year. This is the biggest increase of salaried workers for Ford in the last 10 years, and it is all a part of Ford's contract commitment to the United Auto Workers union to bring 12,000 new jobs to the US by 2015.

According to recently appointed president of the Americas Joe Hinrichs, the new jobs will be focused on areas such as engineering, manufacturing and computer software. Ford will post its job openings online at careers.ford.com, and it will also use social media sites like Facebook and Twitter to recruit new workers, including military veterans.

Ford Mustang Mach-E fails Sweden's moose test
Wed, Sep 29 2021The infamous moose test has claimed another casualty. This time it's the Ford Mustang Mach-E AWD Long Range, which was tested in an electric four-way alongside the Tesla Model Y, Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Skoda Enyaq iV (an electric utility vehicle closely related to the Volkswagen ID.4 that is sold in the United States). According to the Swedish testers at Teknikens Varld, Ford's electric car not only failed to hit the speed necessary for a passing grade, it didn't perform well at slower speeds, either. To pass the outlet's moose test, a car has to complete a rapid left-right-straight S-shaped pattern marked by cones at a speed of at least 72 km/h (44.7 miles per hour). The test is designed to mimic the type of avoidance maneuver a driver would have to take in order to avoid hitting something that wandered into the road, which in Sweden may be a moose but could just as easily be a deer or some other member of the animal kingdom elsewhere in the world, or possibly a child or car backing into the motorway. Not only is the maneuver very aggressive, it's also performed with weights belted into each seat and more weight added to the cargo area to hit the vehicle's maximum allowable carrying capacity. The Mustang Mach-E only managed to complete the moose test at 68 km/h (42.3 mph), well below the passing-grade threshold. Even at much lower speeds, Teknikens Varld says the Mach-E (which boasts the highest carrying capacity and was therefore loaded with more weight than the rest of the vehicles tested in this quartet) is "too soft in the chassis" and suffers from "too slow steering." Proving that it is indeed possible to pass the test, the Hyundai and Skoda completed the maneuver at the 44.7-mph figure required for a passing grade and the Tesla did it at 46.6 mph, albeit with less weight in the cargo area. It's not clear whether other versions of the Mustang Mach-E would pass the test. It's also unknown if Ford will make any changes to its chassis tuning or electronic stability control software, as some other automakers have done after a poor performance from Teknikens Varld, to improve its performance in the moose test.
