Taking a photo line from car-tografi
Just received the Mecum Auctions catalog and flyer for the show in November at the Anaheim Convention Center. Lot #T110 a 1957 Ford Ranchero. Went to the show last year and it was a blast. Good time to sign up if you plan to attend. The Standard is great-you get 2 event tickets prior to the auction and the 2013 brochures and bidder credentials. Check it out.
Taking car-tografi into the dark side for October.
Cruisin' for a Cure: It's an early wake-up call to get to the show. The reaction to the Blue Q makes it worth the trip. Some amazing people attend the show and as always it is fun talking to everyone about the Ranchero and the Q. Great to see Lee jamming around in his golf cart making sure the show is organized. If you want to check out a car this is the place to go. From a Duesenberg to the line-up of DeLoreans the show was worth the drive. Photo's of the CarShow should be up September 30, 2013 Too many great shots to choose from.
Thanks everyone who runs the show. "Great car show for a great cause. "
Great show with a cause. Taking the Ranchero & Blue Q out for the day. Burgers and hot dogs at the ready on the Q. This show is full of surprises, over 3,000 cars, lots of vendors, food and drinks.

Cruisin for a Cure 2013-Great cause car show.
Want to know more about finding that perfect body shop-go to a car show.
When the '65 was first purchased at the Pomona Swap Meet in April 2005 it was in great running conditions but the interior was a mess. Keeping the integrity of the car while, making changes was a challenge. It was hit-and-miss with each endeavor. Some shops did a great job, others not so much. Going to and showing the Ranchero at car shows has been a great investment in finding and giving information on body shops, vendors for parts and general information about the Falcon Ranchero experience. One thing about the car junkie we love to share a great find. If you’re looking for information on where to find parts, re-plate a dash board find a great mechanic or an amazing pinstriper-check out a car show. For more on the history of the 1965 Ranchero and the Blue Q go to HISTORY or check out a CarShow.

1965 Ford Falcon Rancher
This little gem was hiding in the OC. Came across it by accident while enjoying "Jeff's Fun Run" last year 2012. Hanging on the wall of the radiator shop was an old photo of the shop with a few Rancheros parked out front. Talking with the owner about the beauty of the Rancheros he opened the door to his back garage and there it was. Amazing-you never know where you might find something wonderful. Get out this weekend and enjoy a car show-Belmont Shore September 8, 2013. Great car show-Get there early.
The Ranchero Emblem
leaves a mark on the heart of the Ranchero driver.
We try to take a photo of every emblem we come across. It is remarkable how every symbol has its own identity when balanced with the background color and finish of the classic.
