Dripping Springs, Texas, United States

This is a way cool first year model 1957 Ranchero, custom edition.

Starts easy, runs and shifts perfect. Clean Texas title, inspected and registered – ready to go!

This car just drips with style and is a conversation starter wherever you drive it. New exhaust has a beautiful tone and the car is a solid driver.

Recent upgrades:

Converted to disc brakes up front, rebuilt drums on back. New brake lines, master cylinder, wheel cylinders, shoes, etc. Stops on a dime.

New rims up front, four new tires, new wheel bearings, seals, etc.

New complete exhaust system (Magna Flow MagPac) replaced right manifold, left manifold re-surfaced, new gaskets, and "pencil tip” exhaust tips.

While exhaust was out, the entire underbody was sprayed with rust-resistant undercoating

New gas tank and fuel hoses installed.

Four new shocks and new battery

Stock 292 Engine with “Three Deuces” carb set-up and Eddlebrock manifold. Only center carb is hooked up, have spare linkages for other two carbs - but runs great with current set-up. “Three on the Tree” transmission

Interior is in very nice shape - looks original, but can’t be - not sure when it was redone.

Paint job looks great for a driver. Not sure when it was painted – there are at least two small paint blemishes (see photo). Body is great.

Driver side window is cracked (always rolled down anyway) - all other glass is nice and original.

I do have both rear wheel covers (matching and in good shape).

Come by to check her out, or contact me with any questions. I can send more photos or videos of her running.

If the right offer comes along, I reserve the right to pull the car from the auction.

You don’t see these cars come around often – especially in this shape for this price…

Ford Mustang GT350 drops some camo

Mon, 03 Feb 2014

Now that we've poured over the 2015 Ford Mustang in its standard form, it's time to look ahead. We already knew (and heard - literally) that Ford was working on a higher-performance version of its 'Stang to replace the Shelby GT500, and earlier reports have stated that it will simply be called the GT350.
We don't have a ton of detail to go on, but this latest set of spy photos clearly shows a hood-mounted air scoop, which suggests a forced-induction powerplant is under the hood. However, this disagrees with earlier reports that the GT350 will be all motor, using a naturally aspirated engine to send massive horsepower to the rear wheels. Our spies also point out the functional vent aft of the front wheels to allow for better airflow, and the massive quad exhaust pipes can be seen, clear as day.
Expect to see the Mustang GT350 in April, when it debuts at the New York Auto Show in conjunction with the Pony's 50th anniversary. In the meantime, have a look at our gallery above to see the latest shots of the hot Mustang out testing.

Ken Block walks you through his new 'Hoonigan Racing' HQ

Tue, 24 Jun 2014

Ken Block seems like one hell of a nice guy. I ran into him at CES this past January, and he dropped the video games he was playing to chat with me for a while. His crew also recently gave our Steve Ewing a tour of the offices you're about to see on this video. Good guy to know.
As it turns out, they're some fairly cool new digs. Dubbed 'Hoonigan Racing Division HQ,' the office is open to Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST owners who attend the driving program offered out at Miller Motorsports Park. The very same program that Ewing reported on just recently.
Or, if you've no plans to buy an ST or travel to Utah any time soon, you can let Block show you around himself in this MTV Cribs-style video. With interior decorating that relies heavily on shipping containers and luxurious amenities like a ping pong table, 10 refrigerators and a bear(?), there's no lack of eye-candy in the driverly HQ. (Judging by Block's outfit, you'll probably not go thirsty if you're a Monster drinker, either.) Take the tour along with the Gymkhana master, below.

Ford Fusion and Fusion Hybrid nab five-star ratings from NHTSA

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

Ford's Fusion and Fusion Hybrid have both received the highest five-star overall safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The rating is a big upgrade for the Fusion, which was completely redesigned for 2013. The previous model fell one star short of the top rating, after scoring only three stars in the frontal crash test and four stars in the side crash test and rollover evaluations. The 2013 Fusion received four stars in side crash and rollover testing and a full five stars in the front crash test.
Test results for the 2013 Fusion and Fusion Hybrid were greatly improved at least in part due to Ford's Personal Safety System. The system utilizes smarter sensors to gather crash data and tailor the car's restraint systems to the occupants. Seatbelt usage and seat position are taken into account to ensure airbags deploy with less pressure for smaller drivers, more for larger drivers.
The 2013 Fusion twins also received the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick+ designation. Read the official press release below.
