Two 1962 Falcon Rancheros Black car has a 289 v-8 with a 4 spd. trans and 9" rear. Engine runs and trans. shifted fine when I drove car here several years ago. Brakes were bad then and still are. The 289 ran well with no unusual noises or knocks. It has old finned aluminum Edelbrock valve covers, aluminum Edelbrock intake and carb. It also has headers and newer dual exhaust with turbo mufflers. The rear quarters are solid as are the rocker panels and all around tailgate area. The shock towers and core support are solid also. It will need floors all around. I also have with this car a nice front fender (blasted and coated) and a nice door (blasted and coated) to replace the damaged ones on the car. I also have a partial rear floor section and a partial front inner fender panel with battery cove and box of you wish to use them. The red and silver car is a body and tube steel frame only. It has a tube steel frame welded in place to build a gasser/ prostreet or??(nicely done). This car comes with a 1969 429 Ford v-8 engine. (apart minus oil pan and intake).The body shows evidence of earlier rust repair with metal welded in place There are no floors for this car. Body work on outside looks presentable. It includes fenders, doors, hood and bumpers. Also included with this package is a new Crites fiberglass teardrop style hood and fiberglass front bumper. A new fiberglass shifter cover is also with the car. The windshield and back window are good on the red car but the windshield is bad on the black car but the back window is good. We have 2 extra grilles, extra headlight rings and 2 boxes of misc. parts. Included also is a hard to find Ranchero fuel tank (blasted and coated but has some pin holes) Also included is a pair if nice 64 or 65 black Mustang bucket seats. Bring a big truck and take it all for one price!! I also have Titles for both cars. It seems what may be a little rough on one car is good on the other so one pretty nice car can be built out of the pair with extra stuff left over to sell. I will cooperate in any way I can and assist somewhat in loading all but you will need to provide the heavy labor. Both cars need total restoration and are being sold as is where is with no warrantys. A $500.00 non refundable deposit will be required within 24 hours of close of auction. The balance due before or when picking up cars. If payment is made with check or money order of any type sufficient time will be required for clearing before picking up vehicles. A direct bank transfer is the best way

Top Gear season 25 opens with a V8 roadtrip through America

Mon, Feb 26 2018

Great news for fans of BBC Top Gear: the first episode of season 25 is here. Viewers of BBC America will catch the season opener on March 3, and for the American audience this episode is definitely suitable watching. The episode has been dedicated to V8 sportscars almost in its entirety, as it's been wrapped around a Western roadtrip with a motorsport bias. The three hosts get to choose three V8 sports cars, with the basic idea of finding the best all-rounder. Matt LeBlanc goes for a Hennessey-tuned GT350R, Rory Reid chooses a Jaguar F-Type SVR, and Chris Harris shakes up the pack by selecting a McLaren 570GT. It's a nicely varied trio, with V8 power still showing what it's good for. There are various challenges along the way, just like there should be on a Top Gear roadtrip episode – even if the road surface itself isn't always ideal. But things smoothen out, all the way to a NASCAR oval and an airport runway; the flooded Bonneville salt flats aren't suitable for shenanigans, so substitutes have to be found. The trio also hit dirt roads, and have to evade a buggy-driving Ken Block during a "moonshine run to the border." Fans of Sabine Schmitz will be pleased to find her piloting a chain car racer, which consists of two American junk cars with a Honda CRX chained in the middle. It must make sense to someone. The Star In A Reasonably Priced Car segment has been retained for this season. This time it's the British actor Rob Brydon driving the Toyota GT86, on a very wet lap around the show's Dunsfold Aerodrome track that must be a cult classic by now. All in all, the season 25 opener is exactly what it says on the tin. There's nothing out of the ordinary, but it still has excellent cinematography, V8 roar and some nice landscapes. Classic Top Gear. Cowboy duels, Sabine Schmitz chain car racing, @RobBrydon, a @kblock43 car chase and #TheStig The latest episode of #TopGear is available on @BBCiPlayer now. Outside the UK?

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books

Fri, 08 Aug 2014

The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
