1965 Ford Falcon Ranchero

Automatic, upgraded to 302 Engine, 5 Lug Wheels, Dual Exhaust

If your looking for a concourse vehicle or trailer queen, this shouldn't be your choice. This car would be considered a rat rod, project car or driver.
It has the desirable V8 engine, but changed to from original 289 to 302,  Automatic Transmission, 5 Lug Wheels, and Dual Exhaust.
New gauges installed including voltmeter, oil pressure, and temperature.
New lighting harness for headlights, tail lights and turn signals. Horn circuit re-wired and repaired.
Bench Seat recently redone and in great shape. Dash repainted.
New spare wiring harness installed with new fuse box and extra spare circuits for future use. New Fog Light with high and low beam installed
Engine runs strong with no smoke what so ever,brakes are good, no pulling, transmission shifts good with new modulator installed.

Sure there are areas of bondo from past repairs, but no rust visible in any areas, some paint bubbles on passenger side.
Paint is fair, body could use a re-sand and re-paint, may have been blue in another life. Will need new weatherstripping, but not leaking at the moment.
Headliner needs to be replaced, bows are there. Speedometer is working.
Remember this is not a $20,000 Ranchero, but a fairly priced truck, with a low reserve, that could be used haul while being customized to your liking, or just being left alone.

I'm paying $100 a year for insurance at this time, you can't do better than that!  A clear Florida Title in my name.

Buyer responsible for shipping, no warranty, all sales final.
$500 PayPal deposit required within 24 hours after auction ends.
Balance Due within 3 days upon close of auction, either by cash in person or certified bank check. Car and title will not be released until check is verified or cleared.

Thanks for looking!

NHTSA upgrades Ford floor mat unintended acceleration probe

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

According to a Bloomberg report, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has upgraded an investigation into complaints of unintended acceleration lodged against Ford vehicles. The investigation began in June of 2010 when just three complaints had been received and it only concerned the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan, but this was at a time when the phrase "unintended acceleration" made grown men go pale. With 49 additional complaints received since then, the investigation has been reclassified as an engineering analysis - the last phase before a recall - and it has been expanded to include the Lincoln MKZ, making for a total of "around 480,000" units affected between the three sedans from the 2008 to 2010 model years.
The ostensible cause is that floor mats are trapping the accelerator pedal, but according to a Ford statement at the time, the entrapment is due to owners placing the optional all-weather floor mats, or aftermarket floor mats, on top of the car's standard floor mats. NHTSA has backed up that assessment, pinning the blame on "unsecured or double stacked floor mats."
On the face of it, it would appear that NHTSA has upgraded the status not because of Ford's error, but owner error, and Ford has stated publicly that it is "disappointed" in NHTSA's move. On top of NHTSA still being skittish after that other unintended acceleration debacle, it could be seen to be taking its time investigating all of the variables: it's reported that Ford changed its accelerator pedal design in 2010, a "heel blocker" in the floorpan has been considered a potential culprit in how the floor mats could be trapping the pedal, some drivers have said the floor mats weren't anywhere near the pedal, and according to a report in the LA Times, in "a letter sent by Ford to NHTSA in August 2010, the automaker said it found three injuries and one fatality that 'may have resulted from the alleged defect.'"

Transit Courier completes Ford's new commercial van line, will we get it?

Sat, 13 Apr 2013

This week Ford rolled out the 2014 Transit Courier, the fourth addition to its Transit range. Ford says its the first time for the nameplate in the compact van segment.
"Ford has now completely transformed its commercial vehicle line-up, with four all-new, class-leading Transits for European customers," said Barb Samardzich, vice president of product development for Ford Europe. "With the all-new Transit range, we expect sales to grow to 400,000 units per year by 2016, well over 50 percent more than we sell today."
When the Courier goes on sale in the Spring of 2014, it will offer more than 1,400 pounds of payload capacity, multiple mounting points for racks or other framework and a rear cargo area that can carry items 5.3 feet-long. An optional folding passenger seat boosts the cargo length to 8.5 feet.

NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.
