1963 Ford Falcon Ranchero Deluxe Original Factory 260 V8 3 Speed on 2040-cars
Redding, California, United States
|
Up for your consideration is a RARE 1963 Ford Falcon Ranchero Deluxe, after doing some research there is thought to be only about 200 of these left! How many with the original running gear is any ones guess! The Truck is pretty much original, a few changes have been made. It was born Corinthian White (exterior), Red Crush Vinyl and White Crush Vinyl (interior) with a bench seat.***note***the color on the inside of glove box door is original. The exterior paint was two toned some time in its life, bucket seats were added (should have a bench seat), mirrors, hubcaps, radio/speakers changed. If one wanted it would not take too much to bring back to stock. If you look up the VIN DECODER it will tell you what it was born with. I will list the codes for the running gear. Engine: C30E-6015B 4.3 L Windsor 260 V8 Transmission: C3AB-7006 Bell Housing: C3AA6394C Rear End: C70W-A 3:25:1 What I know, the Motor was rebuilt some time in its life, mileage unknown, but runs good. Floor pans have been replaced. There was rust around the rear quarters and I had them professionally repaired with metal, (welded) not bondo. Paint was some what touched up, but needs to be professionally done. There are a few dents, scrapes, dings etc. Fine as a driver, but I think this survivor deserves a full restoration. Grill, bumpers, light housings are not the greatest. Don't get me wrong this Truck is pretty strait! New parts: Tires, clutch, battery, carb, fuel pump, distributor, wires, export brace, idler arm the truck was aligned and brakes were good. Yes it runs, drives and stops, current CLEAN title, lights and blinkers work. Known things that it needs: heater hooked, windshield wiper motor hooked up, horn doesn't work! Shifter has worn (original) but operates, speedo is not accurate (jumps around), carpet and seats reupholstered and probably a few other things that I don't know about! All in all this is a nice driver or an excellent candidate for a full restoration! The Truck will be available for viewing @ Kool April Nights car show, Redding, Ca. From today till Sunday the 27. It is also for sale locally. Being sold as is where is if you have any questions you may call me direct, Mark @ (530) 356-0762 If you have any shipping questions you may call: Miller Auto Transport Broker, Bill Miller @ (530) 945-6973 He is here in Redding and I have used him a few times before. |

Brits recreate iconic Bullitt chase scene
Tue, 13 May 2014Recreating the famous chase scene from Bullitt has become almost an art form in its own right. We've seen it done in a music video, with scale models and even in commercials. There are few films that are as defined by a single scene as the 1968 classic. Even if you don't know a single beat of the plot, the Highland Green Ford Mustang racing a Dodge Charger through the hilly streets of San Francisco is famous. It's so well known that the Silverstone Classic has created a homage to promote its celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Mustang at this year's event in July.
Filmed around the famous UK circuit, the short film generally gets the key points of the scene right. It even has a green Volkswagen Beetle that keeps reappearing, as in the movie. Unfortunately, its Steve McQueen stand-in looks a little too old for the role. While the video shortens the chase considerably, it's still great to see these '60s behemoths leaning and sliding around the track. Scroll down for a touch of nostalgia thanks to one of the greatest scenes ever in cinema - we've got both the recreation and the original chase seen from the movie waiting for you.
Google's new Android Autos OS unveiled, will be in cars this year [w/video]
Wed, 25 Jun 2014Connected cars are coming en-masse. We know this much. How, though, remains something of an open question, especially as two of the world's largest tech companies are preparing to battle for control of your car's dashboard. On the one hand, we have Apple and its CarPlay system. And now, we know what Google has been working on with Auto Link.
Its new name is Android Auto, and yes, it's based off the Android architecture that is the primary challenger to Apple's iOS mobile operating system. Announced at Google's I/O conference today, Android Auto functions similarly to CarPlay - owners will need to plug their smartphones into their cars to access the full breadth of capability.
In Android Auto's case, that means a wealth of voice controls to limit distracted driving. Google's marquee apps will be available when the interface arrives in production models later this year, including Google Play Music, Google Maps and voice-activated texting and text playback. Meanwhile, developers will be able to begin designing custom apps for the new system via an upcoming software development kit.
Mulally to stay at Ford through end of 2014 at least
Fri, 06 Dec 2013Alan Mulally isn't going anywhere... at least not just yet. The CEO who helped turn around Ford Motor Company has been linked to the top job at tech behemoth Microsoft, leading to a flurry of rumors about potential successors. Those rumors, though, may have just been put to rest - at least for a little while.
Speaking to Edsel Ford II (great-grandson of company founder Henry Ford) at the unveiling of the new Mustang, Automotive News Europe confirmed that Mulally would stick around until the end of next year. "Alan is staying through the end of 2014 and that's all I know," said Ford. "Frankly, he has told us that his plan is to stay with Ford through the end of 2014."
Presuming that Edsel Ford is correct and that Microsoft isn't so hot on Mulally that it saves the position for him, it seems increasingly likely that the 68-year-old exec is more interested in continuing to work in Dearborn rather than in Redmond.
