1967 Ford Ranchero 500 Xl 6.4l on 2040-cars
Denver, Colorado, United States
|
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 C-Max Solar Energi takes a recharging station wherever it goes
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Companies ranging in size from small startups to major automakers have been experimenting with solar-powered charging stations for EVs and plug-in hybrids. And, of course, people have been powering vehicles with onboard solar panels for quite some time, too. Still, Ford's new C-Max Solar Energi Concept shows the promise of a truly practical implementation of solar on a production vehicle, and it may not be as far off in the future as we had thought.
As we reported a few days ago, the Solar concept makes use of a "concentrator lens" that focuses sunlight onto the Ford's roof-mounted solar panels. The special lens follows the rays of the sun to maximize the amount of charge being fed to the batteries of the car, taking about a day to fully charge the 21-mile, all-electric range of the C-Max Energi. Ford data suggests that combination might be enough to power 75 percent of all trips made by a statistically average driver. In turn, using the sun to power a vehicle could reduce yearly C02 emissions by up to four metric tons when compared with the driver of an average gasoline-powered sedan.
We've got live images of the C-Max Solar Energi Concept, jauntily tilted on its display to best present it's signature solar panels, straight from the CES floor.
Ford adding stop-start to all major model lines
Sun, 24 Nov 2013Ford has gone all-in on its efforts to offer most of its new vehicles with a fuel-efficient EcoBoost engine, but the automaker is reportedly preparing to take another big step toward improving vehicle efficiency. Automotive News is reporting that Ford will soon expand the availability of start-stop technology, which was first offered - presumably the first non-hybrid vehicle, that is - on the 2013 Fusion (equipped with the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine) as a $295 option.
The benefit of start-stop is reduced fuel consumption as it shuts the engine off at long stops, and AN quotes Ford as saying that drivers can save more than $1,000 on fuel costs over five years. Despite this, the option hasn't been popular on the Fusion thus far, but it could be more beneficial on bigger vehicles like the F-150. Ford also said that the next-gen Edge, which was previewed in concept form at the LA Auto Show, will be equipped with auto start-stop to help make the EcoBoost engines even more efficient.
Daimler consulting with Ford about 3-cylinder engines
Mon, 27 May 2013Soon enough, Ford will offer its 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine under the hood of the Fiesta here in the United States, building on the success of the small powerplant overseas. In fact, this success has caused other automakers to take notice, and according to Automotive News Europe, Daimler is now talking to Ford about this engine for use in its own products.
In other markets, Ford offers the 1.0-liter mill under the hood of the Focus (we had the chance to sample this package on our home turf), as well as the B-Max MPV. For this new collaboration, Daimler would use the turbo-three in the next-generation Smart ForTwo, as well as the Renault Twingo, which the German automaker will be collaborating on as part of its alliance with Renault-Nissan. Speaking to AN, a Mercedes-Benz engineer called the 1.0-liter mill an "interesting and impressive engine."
In exchange for details about the EcoBoost inline-three, Daimler will supply Ford with information regarding its Euro6 stratified lean-burn gasoline engine, which is found in the new E-Class sedan.
