You are bidding on a very rare 1970 Ford Ranchero GT with its original 'M code' 351 Cleveland 4bbl high performance engine. I am listing this car for a friend that doesn't use a computer much. His name is Gene, and I would recommend calling him directly for questions since it is his car. 541-973-1962. They only made 3,905 GT's this year. About half came with the Cleveland. This car is a barn find that runs and drives. New brake shoes and spring kit on rear, plus new disc pads in the front, as well as a new master cylinder. It may still need a new booster for the brakes to work well. This car is an original A/C car. The compressor is off, but is included. The body is very straight overall. Paint is shiny, but has enough chips and scratches to warrant a respray. I would put it back to the original color which is just under this one layer of paint. Dash cluster needs replaced, and the car comes with a good one. There is a small dent in the right rear, and that tail light has some damage, but there is a good one that goes with the car.

· 351 Cleveland Holley four barrel carb
· FMX Automatic Transmission
· Ford 9" rear end
· Power steering, Power disc Brakes, A/C car
· True M Code GT car
· Nice extra Dash Cluster included
· Nice extra Front Bumper
· Original color was Grabber Green
· Remote adjust side mirror
· Dual exhaust W/ full length headers - needs new gaskets
· Lights, turn signals all work
· Needs windshield wiper motor
· New shoes, disc pads and Master Cylinder
· Glass and trim in nice shape all around

For more info call Gene @ 541-973-1962

This Ranchero would be a great car you could drive and restore at the same time. The collector value can only go up on such a low production, popular classic. I am selling a 1966 Ranchero that I personally restored that is also listed on E-bay right now. As with any used car it will be sold "as-is", and will come with a clear, numbers matching Oregon state title. The car will need to be paid for within 7 days of auction ending. Checks will need time to clear before car is picked up. Again, I am only the middleman on this car, so give Gene a call if you would like to know more. Thanks

Ford says 70% of its models to get stop-start by 2017

Sun, 15 Dec 2013

Ford is following up on a report we posted a few weeks back that the Blue Oval would be adding stop-start technology to its entire model range. Now, the Dearborn-based automaker has announced that the fuel-saving feature would be available on 70 percent of the company's range by 2017.
Ford claims the technology will improve fuel economy by around 3.5 percent, although its actual effect will vary based on how the owner drives - apparently up to a 10-percent improvement is possible for those who sit in heavy traffic (Los Angelenos, this means you). The latest recipient of the technology is the updated 2014 Ford Fiesta with the company's three-cylinder EcoBoost powerplant.
Part of the reasoning for the new addition has to do with cost. Ford claims the tech is affordable and easy to implement. "Simply put, Auto Start-Stop helps customers use less fuel, which is an important component of Ford's Blueprint for Sustainability," Ford's global powertrain vice president, Bob Fascetti, said.

Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks

Sun, 31 Mar 2013

Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.

Detroit 3 small cars lay an egg in latest Consumer Reports reliability study

Tue, 28 Oct 2014

Consumer Reports has released its Annual Auto Reliability Survey and the results are, in a word, interesting. While we already covered the score-damaging effects of infotainment systems, there's another big angle to the data that's getting some attention - the utterly dismal scores of the Detroit Three's small car offerings.
The turbocharged Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Cruze, as well as the Ford Fiesta were their respective brands' lowest-scoring models, a stat that's made worse by the fact that the American automakers finished 25th, 21st and 23rd, respectively.
That's not acceptable for The Detroit Free Press' auto critic, Mark Phelan, who has penned a scathing critique of the D3's small car reliability scores, arguing that GM, Ford and Chrysler are "out of excuses."
