1972 Ranchero Gt500, Rare Q-code 351 Cleveland 4-v Cobra Jet With A 4 Speed on 2040-cars
Merritt Island, Florida, United States
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY: I will try to explain this the best I can. In 1979 the vehicle with vin number 2A48Q189576 was rear ended and totaled out by the insurance company. The previous owner found another 1972 Ranchero with vin number 2A47F288864, this is the body that is housing every item from the original 1972 Ranchero including the rare q-code vin number dash board , and has a clear Florida title for vin number 2A48Q189576. So we are not representing this car as a numbers matching car. If you are restoring a GT500 Grand Torino or Ranchero or any other Ford Vehicle this would make a great donor car, especially since it has a period 351 Cleveland Cobra Jet roller motor and 4 speed trans. The dash board with a full instrument cluster , is in excellant shape no cracks and all instruments work. The door panels are in excellant shape. The seats are in good shape, drivers seat does has 2 rips. As far a mechanicals on the car this car runs and can be driven now. Only thing that may need replaced is the throw out bearing on the cluch, which is an easy fix. Car has 9 inch ford rear end not sure what the gears are. I could go on and on and on about this car like I said it can be a great donor car or can be fixed up and have a great classic. Feel free to contact me by e-mail or for a faster response call me any time between 8am and 10pm eastern time with any questions @ 321-863-4157 ask for Greg.

V6 engines will outpace V8s for the 2015 Ford F-150
Wed, 23 Jul 2014How times have changed. Even five years ago, who would have thought the mighty V8 would be just another engine choice for buyers of the 2015 Ford F-150?
Ford is projecting about 28 percent of the next-generation trucks will have the 5.0-liter V8. That's nothing to sneeze at, but consider this: Ford figures its two EcoBoost truck engines - the new 2.7-liter V6 and the existing 3.5-liter V6 - will also each account for about 28 percent of the F-150's sales (56 percent total). That leaves only 15 percent of the pie for the 3.5-liter (non-EcoBoost) V6. The new F-150 goes on sale late this year.

Ford says C-Max mpg reduction has hurt sales
Tue, 22 Apr 2014The Ford C-Max is having a rough time. Sales for the five-door hybrid hatchback were down 39.1 percent in March to 2,295 cars, and sales from January through March were down 42.5 percent to 5,566 units. In an interview with The Detroit News, Ford Americas boss Joe Hinrichs places the blame on lowering the model's fuel economy rating.
"We're definitely seeing consideration on C-Max decline over time. We need to reinvest in the product because it's a great car," said Hinrichs to The Detroit News.
The company was hit with bad publicity over the C-Max when owners in multiple states filed class action lawsuits that alleged the cars weren't able to meet the stated fuel economy. Ford eventually re-rated the model from 47 miles per gallon city, highway and combined to 40 mpg city, 45 mpg highway and 43 mpg combined. To soften the blow of the change, the automaker sent checks to the owners to make up some of the difference. Initially, Ford claimed that demand remained strong for the hybrid. However, the latest sales figures and Hinrichs' statement seem to show the opposite.
Last 2014 Ford Shelby GT500 Convertible nets $500k for charity at Barrett-Jackson [w/video]
Tue, 13 Aug 2013The last 2014 Ford Shelby GT500 Convertible was sold on Saturday at a Barrett-Jackson auction in Reno, Nevada, for $500,000. Ford donated the Mustang to be auctioned for charity, and all of the money is going to the Brain Injury Association of America.
Parnelli Jones, winner of the 1963 Indianapolis 500, was there on behalf of the BIAA with his son Page, who suffered a brain injury in a sprint car crash in 1994. The bidding increased quickly, reaching $500k in no time, spreading a bit more hope to people who live with brain injuries.
The winning bidder will be able to choose the GT500's exterior, interior and stripe colors, and is scheduled to receive the car, signed by Parnelli Jones in appreciation for the donation, by the end of 2013. Watch the video below to see the auction-block action.
