Here is a 1960 Ford Ranchero with a 6 cylinder Ford engine and automatic transmission. The vehicle originally had a standard transmission and was in the middle of being refitted with the automatic, so the column shifty and clutch pedal are still installed. The previous owner assured me the motor and transmission were good, but I have not started it to see for myself. I bought this two years ago with the intention of either using it as parts car for my other Ranchero, also listed, or eventually restoring it, but so far I haven't been able to get there from here.... Even though it's a California vehicle and there isn't much in the way of rust, the floors are a different story, and they will need to be replaced as the previous owners put in really crappy patch panels throughout. Actually, the vehicle was donated to a local high school auto shop near San Diego and the floors were completely cut out and replaced with galvanized steel, but they will need to be completely cut out if you intend this for anything other than a parts vehicle. Full floors are readily available on ebay and various aftermarket suppliers, so there is no problem there. The vehicle is mostly complete with all the big stuff and has very good sheet metal front to rear. It is an original Southern California vehicle, so rust isn't much of an issue with this Ranchero. To a New Englander or Mid-Westerner, this is a completely rust-free vehicle. To a Southwesterner, this may have a little rust.... There is a little rust bubbling through over the driver's side window on the roof as shown in the photo. The only other significant body damage is at the very right rear of the vehicle below the tail light. The rear quarter was pushed in just a tad bit, but it's a bit hard to see in the photo. The front windshield and rear window are missing, and the dash wiring was removed while at the high school auto shop. The hood hinges are missing as well. I have a big container of parts, pictured, which will go with this sale. The driveline is complete including drive shaft, but I don't have a shifter for the newly installed automatic transmission. This Ranchero has the original 13 inch wheels, but no spare. I also have another 1960 Ranchero listed separately, complete and running. Depending on how the auctions go, I am willing to do a 2 for 1 deal if you wish and I am primarily looking to clear these vehicles out to make more room. I am also willing to store this/these vehicles for a reasonable amount of time, so there is no immediate hurry to get them shipped out if you need time to work out shipping or pickup details. Shipping and/or pickup is entirely at the buyer's discretion, and I am available to help as needed. Car rolls easily and won't be a problem for trailering as it is light and easily moved. I towed it 100 miles from San Diego using a car dolly, and all went well. In-person inspections are welcomed and recommended if possible. Questions?? Please ask!

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost flogged and analyzed by Ignition
Mon, 13 Oct 2014Aside from the way it looks and perhaps its independent rear suspension, the biggest bit of news on the 2015 Mustang may be the inclusion of its 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. That blown mill marks the first time since the Mustang SVO of the '80s that a turbo has been fitted under the engine of Ford's pony car.
The Mustang EcoBoost is the subject of the latest episode of Ignition from Motor Trend, giving us a great look at the technical, nitty-gritty side of the turbocharged coupe. Covering it from bow to stern, host Carlos Lago walks us through the boosted Ford before taking to the track for some driving impressions, with particular praise given to the low-end grunt of the 2.3-liter mill.
Check out the full video and then let us know which 2015 Mustang has your interest piqued the most - the EcoBoost four, the 5.0L V8 or the entry-level V6.
Autoblog joins Elon Musk and Danica Patrick in accepting ALS Ice Bucket Challenge
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Unless you've been living in an off-the-grid cabin in the woods for the last couple of weeks or abstain entirely from social media activities, you've probably seen someone you know dump a bucket of ice and water over their own head recently. While the origins of the so-called Ice Bucket Challenge are shrouded in a history typical of Internet memes, its effectiveness in raising money and awareness for the ALS Association has been astonishing.
Celebrities from the worlds of entertainment, sports, technology and more have generated untold millions of video views in support of the organization that is helping patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS, better known as Lou Gehrig's Disease), and generated a much needed influx of cash, as well. Recent reports have some $15.6M raised in the last two weeks.
Of course, the big-hearted world of automotive celebrities has taken part in the drenching charity effort as well. Follow on below for some of the biggest names on four wheels getting iced for charity, with a smattering of your favorite Autobloggers thrown in for good measure.
