1974 Ford Ranchero - 351 Cleveland - Factory A/C - AZ Truck - WOW!

Same Owner for the Past 30+ Years - Rust Free!!!!

Here is a very nice, 1974 Ford Ranchero in great condition inside and out. This is an original high performance 351 Cleveland 4v truck with factory air conditioning. It is a solid, rust free southern truck with an excellent body. This Ranchero belonged to a good friend of mine who owned the car for the past 30 plus years. It was his first car when was 16 and has kept it ever since. The reason for the sale of this truck is that he recently passed away and I'm helping the family sell it. The truck looks great finished in root beer brown with a tan interior. It has many performance and cosmetic upgrades on it.

The list of options as it is currently equipped is as follows:

351ci Cleveland V8
Automatic Transmission
Factory Air Conditioning
Power Brakes
Power Steering
Centerline Wheels
Vinyl Top
Aftermarket AM-FM Cassette Stereo
Etc, etc.....

It has an excellent, older paint job done in root beer brown that looks excellent. The body is very straight, solid and totally rust free as a southern car should be. All the chrome and trim on the car is in excellent original condition. The bed was used and has some nicks and scratches. It is sitting on a set of custom Centerline wheels with nice tires!!

It has a very nice newer tan interior that looks excellent. The dash and instrument cluster is very clean. Everything seems to works in the car. It has a very nice sounding vintage sound system.

Mechanically, this Ranchero runs and drives excellent. The engine compartment is beautifully detailed. The 351ci Cleveland V8 engine runs perfect. The front end could probably use some new bushings, as it is not as tight as it should be. The A/C is all there but needs to be serviced. It is truly an excellent driving car that it very tight and very fun to drive!

All in all, this is a great Ranchero that is ready to drive and enjoy. If you have any additional questions please Call Jimmy at 608-215-8300 from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. PST with any questions you might have and I can help with shipping quotes and arrangements. I also welcome all International bidders!

Good luck in the bidding!

NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors

Wed, 22 Oct 2014

Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.

Ford making Fusion production moves to challenge Camry on volume

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

The Ford Fusion may already beat the Toyota Camry in terms of models offered, transaction price and sales increase so far this year, but if the Fusion wants to make a run at the title of best-selling car in the US, Bloomberg reminds us that volume is key. Opening a second production line at the Flat Rock, MI assembly plant will reportedly allow Ford to produce around 350,000 Fusions annually, which compares Toyota's ability to crank out 475,000 Camrys and Honda's capacity to build around 450,000 Accords.
For the Fusion, that's an extra 100,000 units compared to the car's current pace, and the article adds that the Fusion is "Ford's best shot" to regain the passenger car sales crown - a title it (or any other US automaker, for that matter) hasn't held since the mid-1990s. Despite hiccups with recalls and fuel economy numbers, the Ford Fusion is still red hot when it comes to sales. Fusion sales are up 13 percent so far this year (compared to a 0.6 percent decrease for Camry), and its average transaction price of $26,343 is about $2,300 more than its rival from Toyota.
The Fusion's popularity has helped Ford improve its sales in California; the Dearborn-based automaker has a market share of 18 percent in the state, which is just a fraction of a percentage behind Honda. And this popularity should continue as Ford ups Fusion production and expands the model lineup even further for 2014 with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine soon to become an option.

George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]

Sun, 20 Jan 2013

Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.
