This auction is for a 1957 Ford Ranchero. It belongs to a friend of mine who asked me to list it for him. To begin with the prior owner who built the car was a exceptional engineer who was a master at craftsmanship and restoring cars. A few years ago he passed away and the current owner was a good friend of his. He ended up acquiring the Ranchero and has been going to all the car shows and events with it. It could be used as a daily driver as it goes that good. This vehicle was featured in the 2003 June issue of Super Rod Magazine. There are 5 pages dedicated to the history of this truck. It would take me too long to write everything about it but if you give a call I would be more than happy to go over it with you. Just to give some inside information the running gear is a stock Mercury 390 V-8 4 BBL with a Richmond 5 Speed Manual Transmission and a 9 inch Ford Rear. It cruises nicely but has the power to boot. Has Power Steering, Four Wheel Disc Brakes, Power Windows, Power Door Poppers, Flow Master Dual Exhaust, Ice Cold Air Conditioning, AM/FM Stereo, Beautiful Tan Naugahide Interior, Louvered Hood, Torque Thrust Wheels, Tubular Grille, Hard Tonneau Cover and more. Roof has a 2 inch chop, has sunken antenna, sliced openings by the tail light housings to give marker light impressions, 56 Ford outer rear wheel wells to accomodate bigger tires, 58 Ford Headlights remanned into the 57 fenders and a beautiful hugger orange paint job. You can just imagine all the time and money it took to do this car. It started out as a California car so it was nice and solid to begin with. Believe me this vehicle turns heads where ever it goes! Really need to see this truck in person to appreciate it. First time ever offered on Ebay. We have a clear maine registration and proper transfer paper work.Please check out my other auctions for a 40 ford tudor, 57 chevy wagon,49 olds coupe ,30 model a sedan and a 49 ford pu. .

NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue
Mon, 29 Oct 2012A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.
Watch how Ford torture-tested the 2015 F-150
Wed, 09 Apr 2014The Ford F-150 has been the best-selling truck in the United States for the past 37 years, and the best-selling vehicle outright for the past 32. That's quite a legacy, and thus, it's no surprise that Ford worked super-duper-extra hard on creating the all-new, aluminum-bodied 2015 F-150 that debuted at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
During an event at the company's headquarters in Dearborn, MI this week, we were able to see all of the ways that Ford endurance tests, not just the new F-150, but all of its vehicles. From examining things like light exposure to interior materials and paint finishes, to making sure that corrosion absolutely does not happen when steel components come in contact with aluminum panels in the new truck. The goal: ensure that the new F-150 is nothing short of "Built Ford Tough."
But that's only a small part of the story. Of course, the new F-150 has to be able to withstand whatever a pickup buyer might throw at it - and truck buyers arguably demand the most from their vehicles. So in an effort to convey just what the new F-150 had to go through before being given the final go-ahead, Ford has released a series of videos, showing how its new halo truck was indeed torture tested.
Experts wonder if aluminum F-150 gives Ford a real advantage
Mon, 17 Mar 2014There's no doubt that Ford is taking a risk in producing the body of its upcoming new F-150 pickup truck in aluminum. What is up for debate, however, is whether aluminum was a wise risk to take in the first place. Wards Auto took the opportunity to poll some experts on the subject of aluminum versus steel in the automotive sector, with somewhat unsurprising results.
Richard Schultz, a project consultant at Ducker Worldwide, which bills itself as "a leading aluminum industry consultant (though they also deal in steels), suggests that the potential drawbacks to aluminum - higher costs, lower supply - aren't really impediments to the auto industry's increased acceptance of the lightweight metal.
Similarly, Randall Scheps, global automotive marketing director for Alcoa, a massive aluminum producer, counters claims that aluminum is less safe for vehicle occupants, suggesting that the use of aluminum can actually increase safety as it could potentially allow for larger vehicles with more crush space than steel.
