Driving
this BEAST
The Ranchero
is blisteringly fast and I can say I do not have the guts to stay on the gas
for very long – frankly, it’s scary fast.
It handles
well with the suspension mods, considering the geometry is stock. The brakes
keep up with the added power and are not boosted because I like heavy braking
and steering in a heavy, powerful car like this. It has definitely turned a few
heads at autocross events!
I would be
100% confident to get in this car and drive it anywhere today and would feel
the same about seeing off the new buyer on a great road trip home.
Other
Registered in
Pennsylvania as antique to keep the insurance rates very low; clear title in my
name.
About the sale:
I’m selling
my Ranchero because I fell for (and bought) a 34 Ford pickup and have been, since
that time, bitten by the traditional hot rod bug.
We can seal
the deal with a $500 non-refundable PayPal deposit within 24 hours of auction
close; the balance of payment will be due within 7 days after auction close. To
avoid paying a large PayPal service charge, I’ll only accept PayPal for the deposit
amount.
Over the
years, I’ve been totally satisfied, both as a buyer and seller, with Intercity
Lines (http://www.intercitylines.com)
and I’ll certainly make myself available for your shipper or you to get the
car. If you win the auction and decide to fly to Philly to drive the Ranchero
home, please call me and maybe I can pick you up at the Philly airport.
I’ll be happy
to send you the title by FedEx on the day after your payment clears my bank (I’m
giving myself a day in case I get jammed up at work and I can’t get to the
FedEx box in time).

Happy
bidding!

Hennessey Ford GT sets 267.6-MPH record at Texas Mile [w/videos]
Mon, 25 Mar 2013The record-setting Hennessey-powered camouflage Ford GT we showed you at this time last year headed back to the Texas Mile and managed to bring home yet another record. As you may recollect, last year saw Mark Heidraker's machine sprint to a record 257.7 mph thanks to propulsion from its twin-turbo 5.7-liter V8. The big mill sucks down race gas, and this year the creation pulled off a 267.6-mph run over the weekend. That feat set a new record for the event. Something tells us neither Heidraker nor Hennessey are done squeezing more thrust from this machine.
This particular Ford GT has already gone through a number of permutations. Hennessey started by tweaking the factory supercharger set up before abandoning the blower in favor of two turbos. Since then, the crew has poked and prodded it to coerce as much grunt as possible out of the car. We expect Hennessey will probably come out with a video of the record-setting run shortly, but in the meantime, you can see a couple of videos of the car's runs in Texas below (one of which actually captures the record run). Enjoy.
Detroit automakers gain market share simultaneously for first time in 20 years
Wed, 01 May 2013While monthly sales figures might be an easy way of tracking the progression of the auto industry and individual automakers, looking at market share might be more indicative of how each company is actually standing up against its competitors. For the Detroit Three automakers, they have collectively lost almost 30 percent of the market over the last 20 years, but now, for the first time since 1993, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler have each posted market share gains at the same time.
According to Automotive News, Ford's share increased the most by 0.7 percent, GM was up 0.5 percent and Chrysler rose marginally by 0.2 percent, giving the Detroit automakers a total market share of 45.6 percent. As for the Japan's Big Three, the article reports that Toyota is up by 0.7 percent, Nissan is down the same amount and Honda has seen "little change."
