1968 Ford Ranchero. This vehicle was in running condition, and complete including all chrome trim prior to the start of the restoration. This vehicle sat for a number of years. I had it running very well, it has a healthy 302 V8. Wanting to restore the car I stripped it down and pulled the glass (glass is still there) and had the entire car (minus, doors, hood fenders, these will need stripped of paint) professionally stripped of paint, rust, dirt, grim, ect. Then the car was sprayed with epoxy primmer. The stripping and primmer was done to the entire car, including underside. The car does have a good amount of rust in the floor pans as shown in the photos. The body is very straight with a little bit of bondo work started on the rear near the gas tank. The vehicle needs a little more body work then ready for paint interior and put back together. All parts are there, this car is complete.
I also have a second Ford 1968 Ranchero that was purchased as a parts car. The parts car is complete minus the motor. It was purchased because it had a "racing transmission" sorry I do not know what was done to the tranny but it does have a B&N floor shifter. It's body is also very straight and could very easily be a running car with a motor. I also have extra fenders, Hooker headers, alternators, starters, many extra parts some of which still in their boxes. Buyer responsible for transportation of car/cars. Please feel free to contact me with any questions 530-210-0676 |

Facelifted Ford Focus caught testing in the cold
Wed, 18 Dec 2013It's that time in the life of the Ford Focus to get a little work done - a nip-tuck here, some Botox there. Yes, Ford is testing a facelifted version of its global C-segment entry, which first hit markets in Europe and North America in May 2011.
Like the touchup on the Fiesta, expect Ford's gaping grille to make its first appearance on the Focus. Our spy photographers point out that this is likely to be a more comprehensive makeover than previous spy shots suggested, based on the additional camouflage seen here on the front and rear ends of this five-door model. New head and taillights are also likely in order, as are changes to the front and rear fascia.
The interior was also snapped and features a cleaner design with a larger central display. Other than that, it looks like some buttons have been changed, making us think most of the Focus' updates are limited to the exterior.
Ford EcoBoost successful because of Soviet laser weapons system expert?
Sun, 28 Jul 2013Mike Kluzner is a man of many talents. Not only is he the software engineer responsible for fuel system diagnostics for Ford globally, he "got his start designing laser weapon systems capable of disabling the navigation systems of enemy satellites" for the former Soviet Union. Quite a résumé, wouldn't you say?
You may be asking yourself the same question that popped into our minds upon reading about Mr. Kluzner: What do laser weapon systems have to do with Ford and its EcoBoost engines? We'll let the man answer himself. "The same process for analyzing key physical relationships works for what we do today in engine combustion, catalyst chemistry and mechanics," says Kluzner. "These are all part of Ford's software engineering expertise." Who are we to argue?
Ford also employs an engineer who previously designed software to detect damage to the heat tiles on the International Space Station, as well as one who's past work involved particle physics, says the automaker in the press release below. David Bell (pictured above right), global boost system controls engineer for Ford, describes the software running EcoBoost as "the secret sauce" that makes the technology work as the driver intends and demands.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
