Blackfoot, Idaho, United States
1971 Ford Ranchero GT This is a 1971 Ford Ranchero GT, This is a rare option as far as a ranchero goes. This is a great project car for someone to finish and do how they want. There is minimal body work needed on the car, very little rust on the car, it has been in Idaho most of its life. There are a few dents that would need repaired. With this rare option on this GT car, it has a running 351 Cleveland engine with a C6 transmission behind it with a 9 in rearend. Great bullet proof drivetrain! This 351 has a SHAKER type air cleaner on it which is very hard to come by. Original to the car. The ranchero has a brand new exhaust on it, It is a flowmaster exhaust. The paint is in decent condition, will need a new paint job. The bed of the ranchero is in good shape, very small spot of rust. The interior is all there, It came with a white interior. Bucket seats with a center console. The mileage on the car is excempt but I can assure you the engine and trans run very well. It has been tuned up a little bit with plugs and wires and such. We replaced the drivers exhaust manifold due to a crack so that is fixed now. This is a great project ranchero, hard to find GT option. Please message me with any questions about the car. It does have a clear Idaho title. |

Oprah at it again, gives car away on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Sat, 17 Aug 2013Oprah Winfrey loves giving away cars. Not only has she given Pontiac G6 sedans and Volkswagen Beetle retro-mobiles to everyone in the audience of her past show, but the other night on Jimmy Kimmel Live! she gave another car away to one lucky audience member, while yelling her now-famous line: "You get a car!"
Although the acting of Oprah and Jimmy Kimmel was obviously staged for this giveaway, the reaction from the woman in the audience was genuine shock as she found out that she had just won a new Ford Fusion Energi. Congrats!
Not to take away from what Oprah and Jimmy pulled off, but our cynical sides have to wonder if there isn't more than just a little coincidence that this giveaway took place on the same day that Ford announced a fuel economy reduction for the C-Max hybrid. You be the judge... Scroll down to watch the short clip from the episode.
A tribute to William Clay Ford
Tue, 11 Mar 2014The passing of William Clay Ford has been a big event for the company he spent most of his life helping run. Ford spent 57 years working for his family's company. Considering the Blue Oval has been around for over 100 years, WCF's passing is the end of an era for the Dearborn-based manufacturer.
Ford's YouTube channel has issued a short memorial video highlighting the life of the longest-lived grandson of company founder Henry Ford. It follows William Clay from his time as a boy, showing him alongside his grandfather, through his younger years, and into his twilight, as the patriarch of the Ford family.
Take a look below for this touching memorial video on William Clay Ford.
NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
