1957 RANCHERO

FIRST YEAR (THE REAL THING!)

THEY ARE DESIGNED TO LOOK LIKE THE 57 T-BIRD!!

THE RANCHERO BODY WAS CHANGED MANY TIMES BUT MOST COLLECTORS WILL TELL YOU THAT THIS IS THE MOST DESIRABLE AND HOLDS IT'S VALUE IN THE COLLECTOR MARKET!

AS HENRY FORD ONCE SAID, "RED IS THE BEST AND ONLY COLOR"!

FUNNY THOUGH...THIS 57' IS EXACTLY 57 YEARS OLD IN 2014!!

THE T-BIRD MOTOR IS STRONG AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS AS IT SHOULD AS WELL.

I WISH IT HAD POWER STEERING BUT THE LARGE STEERING WHEELS OF THE DAY WERE LARGE FOR A GOOD REASON!

IT ALWAYS DRAWS A CROWD. THE PIPES ARE REALLY NICE SOUNDING (TALK LOUD DRAW A CROWD!)


THIS RANCHERO CAN TAKE YOU TO WORK...IT CAN DO WORK...AND WEEKEND FUN IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION!

IT IS A SOUND INVESTMENT...I CONSTANTLY GET SOLID OFFERS BUT I DECIDED TRY EBAY SINCE MY 50TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY IS COMING UP IN AUGUST AND I NEED TO BUY MY TOLERANT BUT BEAUTIFUL BRIDE SOMETHING GOLD...KNOW WHERE I CAN FIND A GOLD CADILAC?

OH YA...THE RADIO IS ORIGINAL AND MAKES NOISE BUT IT AIN'T STEREO!?

NICE CUSTOM WHEELS/GOOD TREAD

THE SEATS ARE LEATHER AND THE ELECTRIC CONTROLS WORK

NOT SURE BUT I WAS TOLD THEY CAME FROM A LINCOLN

DOORS AND TAILGATE LATCHES ARE SOLID

FLOORBOARDS ARE SOLID

I AM NOT AWARE OF ANY SIGNIFICANT RUST PROBLEMS

THE TRUCK BED IS SPRAYED WITH BEDLINER (EXCELLENT CONDITION)

ALL WINDOWS ARE VERY GOOD... NO CRACKS... DOOR WINDOWS CRANK UP AND DOWN SMOOTHLY.

SOME PLAY IN THE STEERING WHICH CAN BE TAKEN CARE OF EASILY.

WHILE THIS RANCHERO IS NOT PERFECT...IT IS ALMOST THERE...MY WIFE SAYS I AM NOT PERFECT EITHER BUT I AM ALMOST THERE..!?

HOT AUGUST NITES ARE HERE...DRIVE IN...ROOT BEER FLOATS...A LITTLE ACTION!!! TOO OLD? NEVER! LIVE NOW!

Top 11 Lego Technic cars to buy on Amazon in 2024

Mon, Jan 22 2024

Autoblog may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability are subject to change. I recently got a birthday wish list from my 11-year-old nephew, and I couldn't help but smile when I saw “Lego Technic Cars” at the top. Lego isnÂ’t a phase, itÂ’s a lifestyle. Once a Lego fan, always a Lego fan. In fact, IÂ’d be willing to bet that many of you reading this right now have some kind of Lego vehicle in a box somewhere, or better yet, on display in your home. While theyÂ’re not necessarily cheap, getting into building Lego Technic vehicles doesnÂ’t have to bankrupt you, either, unless you go for the $400 Lamborghini right off the bat. Here are 11 of our favorite Lego Technic vehicles on Amazon, right now, ranging from an affordable $35 all the way up to $450. LEGO Technic Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Ages 9+ (544 Pieces) - $39.99 (20% off) One of my first and favorite model cars growing up was a first-gen Ford Mustang GT350, so this GT500 for under $40 is right up my alley. At 544 pieces and made for ages 9 and up, the GT500 is a considerable step up from Grave Digger but a great starter to a Technic collection nonetheless. It isnÂ’t the most accurate-looking vehicle in this list, but the AR app and the fact that it can drive make it a worthwhile purchase. $39.99 at Amazon LEGO Technic Formula E Porsche 99X Electric Ages 9+ (422 Pieces) - $49.99 Not a Ford fan? Not a problem. This Formula E Porsche 99X is the same price and better looking than the GT500. Even though there are 122 fewer pieces in this Porsche set, it has a level of detail seen in much more expensive Technic sets including numerous decals and a pull back motor.  $49.99 at Amazon LEGO Technic Jeep Wrangler Ages 9+ (665 Pieces) - $54.99 This is the set I ended up going with for my nephew, not because I think it is the coolest, but because for the price, I think you get the most bang for your buck. 665 pieces is over 50% more than the comparatively priced Porsche 99X and it also scratches the nostalgia itch for me: The first-ever model vehicle I built was a yellow Jeep Wrangler Sahara. This Wrangler Rubicon has definitely had some aftermarket mods like the front winch, which makes it one of the coolest Technic sets under $60.  $54.99 at Amazon LEGO Technic Monster Jam Grave Digger Ages 7+ (212 Pieces) - $34.16 If ever there was a gateway Lego Technic, this Grave Digger is it.

Watch this Ford F-150 SVT Raptor fly like an eagle [UPDATE]

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is a very capable truck right out of the box, but "capable" has never translated into "invincible." Just ask the owner of the machine in this video. In it, the driver gets frisky with an aggressive jump with plenty of speed on his hands. The result is enough air to make Vaughn Gittin Jr. blush. As always, it's not the launch that's painful, but the re-entry. Gravity eventually asserts its dominance over the $43,630 pickup in a big way, and when it comes crashing down, it does so with a vengeance.
The impact was hard enough to set off both the alarm and multiple airbags inside the cabin. It's unclear if anyone was injured in the stunt, but we certainly wouldn't be surprised to hear that was the case. You can check out the stunt in the video below, and remember, when in doubt, back out of the throttle. Be warned, there may be some explicit/NSFW language in the clip.
UPDATE: Second video added with an even better look at the jump added below.

New UAW boss Williams talks tough, vows 'no more concessions'

Sun, 08 Jun 2014

Dennis Williams, the newly elected president of the UAW, had some tough words for American automakers in his inauguration speech at the 2014 UAW Convention, striking down the possibility of any additional concessions from the 400,000-strong union.
"No more concessions. We are tired of it. Enough is enough," Williams said during his speech. UAW employees have not received a raise in nearly 10 years, according to Reuters.
Considering the recent strong results for Ford, Chrysler and General Motors, the union's demands are likely to carry a bit more weight in next year's negotiations. And considering Williams' tough stance, we could be in for some fireworks once negotiations commence.
