I have a very rare 1967 Ford Ranchero XL 500 for sale. It is an original numbers matching big block 4 speed car. 390 high performance engine, close ratio 4 speed toploader transmission, 9" 3:25 to 1 traction-lock differential. Bucket seats, center console, XL trim, rare factory tachometer. Power steering and power disc brakes. According to internet research there were 1881 XL Rancheros built in 1967. Of that, 494 were "Z" engine codes and only 171 came with 4 speeds. This was an original red car with black interior. Has Unilite electronic distributor, Holley Street Dominator aluminum intake and Holley Street Avenger 670 cfm carburetor. Aside from that, the long block is original. The car runs and drives nicely and can be used as a daily driver. New shocks on all 4 corners. Front suspension is all new and has been lowered 1". Front sway bar has been upgraded to 1". Originally came with a 3:00 posi, now 3:25. New dual exhaust system with "H" pipe. Good brakes. New Cragar S/S wheels - 15" x 7" front and 15" x 8" rears with nice T/A radials. Everything works well on the car (lights, turn signals, radio, tach, wipers, etc.) with the exception of the horn. All glass is good although the windshield does have a scratch in it. Body is quite straight with no signs of any accidents except a slight crease in the passenger's rear quarter panel. There is some rust in the rear quarter panels down low (shown in pics) and the driver's side floor pan has been replaced with the correct full length pan and is very solid although not trimmed to a nice finish (also shown in pics). The bed had carpet in it when I purchased the car (approx. 3 years ago). I removed the carpet but the glue is still showing and there is pitting in the metal although very solid. I had the shock access and tailgate panel stripped and primed. My plan was to strip the remainder and Rhino-line the bed to cover the pitting. The remainder of the car is pretty much rust-free. Interior is nearly new...seats, carpet, door panels and headliner in very good shape. There is 1 crack in the dash at the speaker grille. Chrome and trim are complete and generally in very nice shape. The passenger's rear quarter panel trim is dinged up, but I have a nice replacement that goes with the vehicle. I also have a nice tailgate that is better than the one on the car. Some other small parts included. This is a rare muscle truck that is a one-year only body style (Fairlane). Serious parties please feel free to email or call (303) 775-2193 with questions. Thanks for your interest.

Ford car-camo artist works his craft on Australia's new Falcon XR8

Fri, 25 Jul 2014

Ford is among the kings of concealment when it comes to test cars. On one recent Mustang SVT mule, the automaker went to the extreme of putting baffles over the exhausts to hide how many there were. Sounds like a lot of work, right? In a new video, the Blue Oval has decided to take fans behind the scenes to show them what it takes to camouflage a prototype. In this case the subject was the recently unveiled 2014 Falcon XR8 for Australia.
Ford's prototype build coordinator Down Under has the very appropriate name of Neil Trickey, and it's his job to obfuscate the important bits of test cars to keep them out of spy shooters' camera lenses. Trickey calls his job a "dark art," and he shows off some of the tricks of his trade in the video. It turns out that the fabric we often see on mules is a type of lycra, but his team isn't above getting out a can of spray paint to conceal parts, too.
Scroll down to watch a video about a man who you probably wish could be a little worse at his job.

Ford reveals 345-horsepower output for new Focus RS [w/video]

Thu, Jun 25 2015

When Ford revealed the new Focus RS at the Geneva Motor Show, it promised it would deliver "well in excess of 315 horsepower." It didn't say exactly how much that would come to, but now it has. On the eve of its dynamic debut at the hands of Ken Block at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, Ford has confirmed that its new hot hatch will pack 350 metric horsepower. Those reaching for their calculators will find that works out to 345 horsepower by our standards. The power output is backed up by 324 pound-feet of torque, capable of being boosted up to 347 for up to fifteen seconds at a time. Those figures come from a retuned version of the same 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbo four as the one available in the Mustang, but produces over ten percent more power thanks to a new turbocharger, upgraded intake and exhaust, and a larger radiator. All that muscle will be channeled to all four wheels through Ford Performance's new all-wheel drive system with dynamic torque vectoring, launch control, and selectable drive modes, including a Drift Mode that (as you can see from the video below) allows the hot hatch to get more than a little sideways. Ford still isn't saying what those specs will translate to in terms of measurable performance figures, but as far as output goes, things are looking pretty good. The 30th Ford RS model already packs more power and torque than the new Honda Civic Type R (306 hp, 295 lb-ft), Volkswagen Golf R (292 hp, 280 lb-ft), Subaru WRX STI (305 hp, 290 lb-ft) or the Nurburgring-conquering Renault Megane 275 Trophy-R (271 hp, 266 lb-ft) and Seat Leon Cupra (276 hp, 258 lb-ft). It even respectably holds its own against the more upscale BMW M235i (320 hp, 330 lb-ft), Mercedes A45/CLA45 AMG (355 hp, 332 lb-ft), and Audi RS3 (362 hp, 343 lb-ft). Whether it'll outshine them all in real-world conditions remains to be seen, but we're looking forward to finding out whenever Ford deems fit to drops those performance stats on us.
