Las Vegas, Nevada, United States

Las Vegas, Nevada, United States

Selling  a 1969 Ranchero in excellent condition, original low mile car with no rust (California - So. Nevada). This is an uncut original with very low miles and it shows. 

Exterior; has had recent repaint, some paint missing on hood near molding (see pic), small scratch on front fender(see pic), right  hood scoop turn signal light does not illuminate however turn signal device works properly at all other locations,  period correct wheels with nearly new back tires and brand new front tires, chrome is in good to excellent condition, body is  straight, bed has mat covering a near perfect floor. This car/truck looks great up close or far away. 

Interior; upholstery, door panels, headliner in excellent condition, dash pad has no cracks, carpet is in very good condition with mats, includes two additional kick panel as passenger one has a crack in it. CD/AM/FM/Sirius ready head unit installed in glove box with remote, two box speakers behind seat. There are NO modifications to this dash, no cuts in the metal, looks as it did 45 years ago, both windows work well, heater, fan, lights, turn signals, brake lights, hazards all work. Factory radio still in dash (unknown condition as it is bypassed for aftermarket one in glove box). 

Drive Train; Starts up on the first try every time, runs very smooth, trans shifts normally, the 302-2 bl accelerates the car/truck well, tracks perfectly, stops perfectly (no pulling). Has Cherry Bomb dual exhaust so it sounds great, some what period correct sound. Electric Fuel pump added by previous owner (never told why) with factory mechanical still plumbed in place.  There is a minor oil leak at back of motor, about a drop every few days, the trans has no leaks, the differential has no leaks. 

Mechanical;    Since February of this year, I  have replaced or had replaced the following items: 
New front brakes rotors
New front brake pads
Front end alignment (front end is tight)
New front shocks
New sway bar bushings polyurethane (new in box, not yet installed, see pic)
New sway bar end links, polyurethane (new in box, not yet installed, see pic)
All three high pressure power steering hoses replaced with new
Rear transmission seal replaced 
Both real axle shaft seals and bearings replaced
New brake shoes in rear, drums  turned
New rear sensa-trac  shocks (new in box, not yet  installed, see pic)
New front tires 

I purchased this Ranchero as I wanted a rig to replace my truck, but one with style and class . This one has all that and more, but its in too good of a condition for me to use it as a truck, I don't  want to scratch it or get it dinged in a parking lot.  Its fun to cruise, gets lot of attention/conversation wherever I go. The Ranchero just doesn't get used or driven  enough by me, again because of its condition, plus  I have a Cougar that I prefer to cruise around in.  

No Warranty either expressed or implied, Ranchero is sold as is. Buyer responsible for all shipping cost. I will help get it to a shippers dock location if its within a reasonable distance from my location.

2014 Ford Fiesta Titanium

Mon, 28 Oct 2013

You might not be interested in owning a subcompact (B-segment) hatchback for $20,000. Let's be clear from the get go here: there are any number of reasonable arguments for staying away from the highest-content versions of these small cars. Ford's player in the B-segment arena is the newly updated 2014 Fiesta, and the Titanium trim represents the most luxurious instantiation of the model. We recently were loaned a Fiesta Titanium for a week, whose final sticker price hit $20,390, with navigation being the only standalone option added to the bottom line. By way of comparison, the most basic version of the all new, one-segment-up Mazda3 hatchback costs $19,740 with delivery and destination accounted for, and no options added on.
Hold on to that thought for a moment, we'll get back to it.

Mulally confirms he's not leaving Ford for Microsoft

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

In recent months, rumors had been flying about Ford CEO Alan Mulally potentially leaving the company to take a position at Microsoft. Last we heard, Mulally was planning to stick around at Ford through at least 2014, and in an interview today, that bit was confirmed by the CEO himself.
According to the Associated Press, in a report from The Detroit News, Mulally said he will not be leaving Ford for Microsoft, and reiterated that he will remain at the Blue Oval through 2014, if not longer. Mulally has "no plans other than to serve Ford," according to the report.
Mulally did not say whether or not he had been in talks with Microsoft at any point. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has said he plans to leave the software company sometime this year.

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners

Sat, 30 Mar 2013

The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
