This is a 1963 Ford Falcon Ranchero. I bought it to run around town in and for errands, and now must sell it due to arthritis problems that make driving a stick shift difficult. It runs and drives and has a clear California title and current registration. The good stuff: The body is pretty straight but not perfect. The interior is nice but needs a new headliner and carpet. Has a rechromed rear bumper, newer aluminum radiator, newer battery, newer wheel cylinders & master cylinder and steel brake lines (the hydraulic lines - brake lining is about 50%, u-joints are new, always starts & doesn't overheat. Bed has a little surface rust only - no rot. Tires are good. All glass is intact and in pretty good shape, all stock trim is on it. The not so good stuff: There is rot in floor both sides but has been fiberglassed over so floor is fairly solid - should be replaced; mild rot behind rear wheels at bottom of quarter & above rear wheel on rt. side - no other rot that I could find but has surface rust in other places, dent in tailgate around emblem - not real big, small dent in left door & fronts of both fenders - not bad, needs electrical work - wipers, horn, and heater don't work - all lights do, has alternator in place but should be wired better - charges but wiring should be re-done, engine runs good when warmed up but is tired - smokes some, needs a carburetor overhaul, clutch chatters some- shifts fine, drives o.k. but I only drive it around our smaller town. Overall it's a good start for a restoration project, or you could drive it while giving it the care it needs. It is not a car that you can just drive anywhere without doing some of the work it needs. Buyer is welcome to pick it up or I will work with any shipper. Shipping cost is solely the responsibility of the buyer. I live in Bishop, Ca. - 220 miles south of Reno, Nv. and 290 miles northeast of Los Angeles, Ca. I can store it up to 2 weeks but it must be paid for within 7 days of auction close. There is a $250.00 non-refundable deposit due within 3 days of close of auction - Paypal is o.k. for the deposit - balance due within 7 days of close of auction in cash or cashiers check (must clear bank before car will be released) . Thanks for looking!! |

Weekly Recap: 2016 CTS-V gives Cadillac new momentum for the new year
Sat, Dec 27 2014It's been a rough year for Cadillac. The historic luxury carmaker been in the news for all of the wrong reasons: Declining sales, ditching its advertising agency and the relocation of its headquarters from Detroit to New York. But in late December, Cadillac reminded everyone what it does best: Build some of the rawest and most compelling luxury sedans in the world, as evidenced by the 2016 CTS-V. This monster churns out 640 horsepower from a supercharged 6.2-liter V8. Sound familiar? That's the Corvette Z06 engine, and it makes this CTS the most powerful production Cadillac ever. It also puts the sporting divisions of the Germans on notice. The new CTS-V easily overpowers the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4Matic and its 5.5-liter biturbo V8 rated at 577 hp, and the BMW M5 (with the competition pack) and its 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 that pushes out 575 hp. The rear-wheel drive Cadillac can sprint to 60 miles per hour in 3.7 seconds, which is close to the 3.5-second time turned in by the 4Matic-driven E63 S, and a bit quicker than the 4.1 seconds posted by the M5. With Magnetic Ride Control, General Motors' stout eight-speed automatic transmission (also used in the Corvette), Brembo brakes and a carbon-fiber option package that pretty much builds your car out of carbon fiber – it's clear this Cadillac means business. Truth be told, we expected this CTS-V to deliver. It's been a serious sports sedan for a decade, and the recent generation and its 556-hp arrogance have been particularly memorable. But notice what we're doing here? We're talking about product. Not who makes Cadillac's ads, or if the brand's headquarters has a mailing address in NYC. Like the 2016 ATS-V that's due in the spring, the debut of the 2016 CTS-V (on sale in late summer) is a shot in the arm for Cadillac, and its arrival comes during time of transition. The brand is trying to reinvent itself as a modern luxury maker. It wants new customers, a different image and obviously more sales. Those things are going to take time, but with a 640-hp sledgehammer of a sports sedan on tap for next year, Cadillac can still maintain some of its swagger through all of the change.

Ford Mustang pinball machine has supple wrist, plays by sense of smell [w/video]
Fri, 07 Feb 2014Ford didn't have anything major to show off at the 2014 Chicago Auto Show, so it seems it instead opted to have some fun - it brought a row of pinball machines to the show. Yes, pinball machines.
We originally told you about the Stern Pinball Ford Mustang machine a few days ago, and as day two of the Chicago show is a bit of a slow one, we opted to head to the show floor and get some snaps of the bank of new machines. Not surprisingly, there's plenty for the Mustang fan in each of these machines, ranging frond different models, to logos to a full model.
Take a look below for our full gallery of live shots, available up top. Then head below for our original gallery of stock images, along with a video and press release on the new machines.
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.
