1971 Ford Ranchero Squire 5.0l on 2040-cars
Clearlake, California, United States
|
I have for sale a Rare 1971 Ford Ranchero "Squire" with the wood grain decals along the bottom on the rockers and on the gate, not like the traditional Squire has across the sides of the car.
This car came from Northern California and remains in the same town that it has been in since New. I am the third owner of the car. An elderly man bought the car new locally and when he couldn't drive any longer he sold it to one of his neighbors that did some work on it like put a new t5 Mustang 5 speed transmission and new clutch, he then died and his wife sold it. Transmission works great and has no issues. The engine is a numbers matching 302 ci small block V8 that was an original 2bbl and I have now up graded it to a Edelbrock intake and Carb. along with aluminum Edelbrock valave covers. I have also recently replaced the points and condensor. runs good. The car has stock exhaust and is very quite. The body is very straight and has only surface rust, as the second owner decided to strip part of the paint with paint stripper and then passed away before he do much more with it, I would have done something with it but I think it has great Patina. The only rust through was in the rear floor area that has all been cut out and welded in with the correct gauge sheet metal. No other Rot is apparent. The rolling stock consists of a set of Mustang 17" Bullet wheels with decent tires. Along with wheel spacers and longer studs to accomodate the wheel spacers. The interior has a new black carpet kit and leather bucket seats the driver is power but I have yet to hook it up permanently but works fine. Has original seat belts. The dash had cracks so it has a cover on it. On the back there is a rare piece for this car and that's the camper shell or topper, I have the side windows for it but no rear hatch. it is in fine shape otherwise. The car holds a clean California title and is registered with its original blue and yellow plates till Oct 2014. I have all of the original parts for this gem like the original seat, carb/intake set up and air cleaner I do not have the original transmission. Buyer is responsible for local pick up and/ or setting up shipping arrangements. I expect a $1000.00 non refundable deposit within 24hrs of close of Auction. This is your chance to buy a solid California Ranchero that they only made this style two years. Good Luck. |

Ford hybrid sales rebound following MPG controversy
Sun, 31 Aug 2014Ford hybrid customers apparently have very short memories. With two EPA fuel economy reratings in the last year, sales of the C-Max, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ haven't been too terribly dented, Ward's Auto reports.
All three vehicles saw sales dips following the August 2013 rerating, although sales of the MKZ Hybrid had begun to rebound as early as November of that year. C-Max sales, meanwhile, took slightly longer, with sales on a steadily improving course as early as February of this year.
The second rerating, in June of this year, has had an even smaller effect on the Blue Oval's hybrids. The C-Max has actually been subject to a sales increase, while both the MKZ and Fusion saw minor sales drops (less than 400 units between the two in the month following the rerating).
Ken Block rally cars go blue in the face (and everywhere else)
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Well at least we now know why Ken Block "just ain't care" about smashing up his Ford Fiesta rally car recently. It's because he's getting a full brand makeover including a new team name, new paint scheme and even a new headquarters. Formerly known as Monster World Rally Team, Block and his Fiesta will now be competing under the Hoonigan Racing Division name, which is based out of a new 12,000 square foot facility located in Park City, UT.
As you can tell in the image above, Hoonigan Racing will replace the familiar black, white and green paint scheme with a more colorful design featuring plenty of blue, purple and red; the Monster Energy logo retains some of the car's green. The new paint scheme was inspired by Block's love of skateboard graphics from the '80s and early '90s as well as "Miami Vice-era" speedboats.
Block will continue to compete in multiple rally racing series such as Global RallyCross, World Rally Championship and X Games. The new headquarters features office space on one side and a shop for the cars on the other side. The building features plenty of stuff you'd expect from a company designed around Ken Block, including a massive gaming station for racing video games, recycled shipping containers used throughout the facility and a black bear.
2015 Ford F-150 [w/videos]
Thu, 02 Oct 2014To learn more about the all-new 2015 F-150 and get an early read on its potential hero-or-zero status, we flew to the heart of full-size pickup truck country, San Antonio, TX, to spend a day driving, towing and playing in the mud with an assortment of Ford's innovative new trucks.
First, a caveat - while we feel we have a reasonably good handle on the new F-150 after attending this first-drive event, we are far from ready to pass definitive judgment on the success of this radically new rig. Our time in the various models was lamentably limited and we felt rushed. With so much at stake and with so much to talk about and experience, we had zero alone time with the vehicle - there were Ford folks shadowing us at every moment.
And we still don't know everything there is to know about the trucks, as Ford is withholding some of its most crucial numbers, including curb weight data and anticipated EPA fuel economy figures. We don't even have a firm on-sale date. All of this information is typically disclosed - or at least officially estimated - at the time of a new vehicle's first drive. This limits the scope of the judgments we feel comfortable making based on our first encounter.
