Gt Broughm on 2040-cars

Year:1979 Mileage:77230
Location:

Portland, Oregon, United States

Portland, Oregon, United States

This is a very solid daily driver Ranchero,  the 351 windsor and 2 barrel with the FMX trans runs and drives real smooth. The car had a small carb fire about 2 1/2 years ago and I've been sanitizing it back to stock condition since. Body is straight with no rust holes. Interior is near perfect, has seat covers on the factory buckets but I've never taken them off. Dash pad no tears or splits and the dash is in one piece and not chopped up. The speedometer shows 77K but could be 177K, motor does not smoke or leak.
There is one small spot of surface rust on front bumper chrome and tailgate.
It has fairly recent new dual exhaust with cats, class packs and pipes out the sides behind rear wheels. It also has the factory 14" magnum 500 rally wheels. This Ranchero is pretty much factory stock with the exception of the door speakers and a factory type AM/FM cassette radio. Also has a hard tonoe cover that needs a latch for the lock.

Although this a factory GT Broughm, it did not come equipped with tilt wheel, P/W, PDL or power seat.

New parts installed are
windshield
Battery
Regulator
headlight switch
front brake calipers, master cylinder, hose's and pads
2 ported vacuum switch's
high pressure a/c hose
2 cooper cobra tires (front)
A $500 deposit will be required upon successful bidding and purchaser is responsible for shipping cost.

Ford Focus Electric and ST recalled over lighting issue

Mon, 12 Aug 2013

Ford is recalling 6,308 units of the 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric and 2013 Focus ST that were fitted with HID headlights because a "wiring incompatibility" could keep the front side marker lights from working. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the recall should begin in the middle of this month, after which owners can take their cars to dealers to have the wiring assembly repaired free of charge.
You can find more information in the NHTSA bulletin posted below.

The fascinating forgotten civil defense history of Mister Softee trucks

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

Hemmings came across an interesting article from the Throwin' Wrenches blog about the intersection of ice cream, cars and civic duty in America's late 1950s. In particular, it focuses on the Mister Softee trucks, which criss-crossed neighborhoods of the eastern US serving ice cream. Looking past the ultra-durable vehicles used - heavy-duty Ford-based chassis, for what it's worth - the article delves into some deeper national-security territory.
See, Mister Softee truck owners were voluntary members of the Civil Defense, thanks to all the useful stuff (potable water, generators, freezers and fridges) that the machines carried with them for serving ice cream. Click over to Throwin' Wrenches for the full run down of how Mister Softee would have stepped in to help fight if the Cold War ever turned a little hotter.

Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.
