 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

TX officer allegedly lets 140-mph street racer go with a warning [w/poll]

Tue, 26 Aug 2014

Being pulled over by the police is one of the most nerve-racking situations that a driver can go through, and it's even worse when you know that the officer has you dead to rights for speeding well over the posted limit. In this video, the driver of a heavily modified Ford Mustang with a claimed 966 horsepower at the rear wheels could have easily lost his ride for doing triple-digit speeds and street racing, but a friendly Texas police officer appears to send him on his way with a simple warning.
What's more, the driver in question wasn't just speeding - his Mustang was the camera car for a bunch of rolling street races in the wee hours of the morning on a Texas highway. The driver was more than willing to mix it up in the action, too. Eventually the cops catch on and pick the 'Stang to pull over, but not before the Ford owner runs a claimed 140 mph. With only audio to go on after the car is pulled over, the police officer seems incredibly nonchalant about catching someone who was so brazenly breaking the law. Incredibly, the patrolman actually tells the driver that he's seen everyone racing tonight but ignored them. With traffic picking up, the cop says that it's time to "cut it out" and go home for the night. As far as this video shows, that was the end of it.
Warning: There is explicit, not-safe-for-work language in the video below.

Ford running short of F-150 frames

Sun, Jun 7 2015

Like most any automaker, Ford is eager to build as many F-150 pickups as it can sell. And considering that the truck has long stood as the top selling vehicle in the United States, that means building (and selling) a lot of them. Further, Ford reports that its factories are finally fully up to speed and ready to build as many F-150s as dealers can sell. Unfortunately another factor is reportedly preventing the new aluminum-bodied pickup from reaching its potential. According to Automotive News and as we've heard before, the Blue Oval automaker has had trouble getting its hands on as many frames as it needs. Though Ford would not confirm the shortage itself, AN cites union sources in reporting that the Metalsa plant in Kentucky, which produces the new F-150's frame for Ford, has been unable to meet the demand for more such frames. "Whenever you have launches, you have issues that you have to deal with in the supply base," is all Ford CFO Bob Shanks would admit. "We're always working closely with suppliers if there's an issue to sort it out. If that were the case, that's what we'd be doing." The reported supply shortage could be why plans for overtime production are reportedly being canceled at both the plants in Kansas City and Dearborn where the F-150s are assembled, despite reaching or nearing full capacity. The shortage could also help explain why, according to AN, sales of the F-Series in the United States fell nearly 10 percent last month, while the rest of the pickup market rose 17 percent.

Ford GT40 makes historic return to racing at Goodwood

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

Is there a more iconic, American racecar than the Ford GT40? That may be a discussion for another day (although by all means, tell us how wrong we are in Comments), but this video of heaps of GT40s running in the Goodwood Revival races certainly has us thinking that Ford's Ferrari-killer might just be the best racer the Land Of The Free and Home Of The Brave has ever come up with.
That's completely ignoring the fact that the GT40 was largely developed by Brits using American money, but that's besides the point (there was also a rather brash Texan, who had a big role later in development). The resulting vehicle was dominant, besting the cars of Il Commendatore from 1966 to 1969, although it should be noted that Ford's GT40 was unable to beat Ferrari in its first two Le Mans outings in 1964 and 1965.
Those four years of dominance, which started with Ford sweeping the podium, were enough to establish the GT40's legend. And now, here we are almost 50 years later, celebrating the mid-engined monsters at Goodwood, in their first ever one-make race. Take a look below for the entire video.
