Up for auction is a 1976 Ford Bronco. It has a good running 302 that looks to be original. It is running off of a one gallon can under the hood just to make sure it didn't get any bad gas. The motor sounds good and runs smooth. It has the original power disc brake setup. It is complete and works, but the front brakes stay partially engaged so the front tires won't roll free. I have not investigated to find out exactly what it is, but it's most likely the master cylinder, or the calipers. It has a 3-speed manual transmission one the column. It shifts good for an original unit. Transfer case is nice and tight and it shifts very well. All the 4-wheel drive works and it's all there. With a little work, this bronco could be driving down the road. The body has rust (pictured). The worst rust is in the rockers. The front fenders were removed by the previous owner. The door strikes and posts are 90% solid but do have some rust through (see pics). The doors hang well and the door posts do not give any when the doors open and shut. The hood and tailgate are both good with minimal rust. The grill could be used with some work. The top is decent. The seams along the rear quarter panels are good. The front floor pans need to be replaced. The rear floors are mostly solid but have some rust in a few of the seams. The frame is solid throughout. This would be a great bronco to restore or use as is for a woods vehicle (once the brakes are fixed). It does come with the wiper motor and wiper motor cover (not installed). Please look at the pictures closely and ask any and all questions prior to bidding. I will answer questions ASAP!! Feel free to ask! Thanks so much for looking and good luck!

I forgot to mention that this bronco has a good working, original, 4-turn power steering setup.

'Car Wars' says Ford, Honda to pick up share, Fiat-Chrysler ambitions downplayed

Sat, 14 Jun 2014

Don't look for a tremendous shifts in automotive market share over the next three years because it might not be coming. That's at least according to the annual Car Wars report by John Murphy, from Bank of America Merrill Lynch Global Research.
In the report's analysis of automakers' market share from 2013 to 2017, it predicts only small changes among the major companies. Ford and Honda see the biggest positive effect with an estimated 0.5 percent increase in their shares over the next three years; to 16.2 percent and 10.3 percent respectively. On the flip side, European automakers and Nissan are expected to lose 0.2 percent each to fall to 8.3 percent and 7.8 percent each respectively. The rest of the industry is predicted to hold steady as it is now.
The biggest loser in that prediction might be Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles. The report certainly throws a wet blanket on its plan for significant gains in market share. Murphy told The Detroit News that the company's goal was "almost unattainable."

Ford posts decade-best $2.1B profit in Q1 2013

Wed, 24 Apr 2013

As predicted, Ford has reported that its first quarter of 2013 was a resounding success overall, with a pretax profit of $2.1 billion ($0.41 per share), and a net income of $1.6 billion ($0.40 per share). In fact, Ford made a pretax profit of some $2.4 billion in its home North American market, with that total number being pulled down by losses in South America and Europe. That gaudy North American profit is the strongest result by the automaker since 2000.
Ford's companywide profit for Q1 was down $147 million from one year ago, while the net income number marked an increase of $215 million year over year. Overall, this is Ford's 15th-consecutive profitable quarter.
The bad news from the European market was even worst in Q1 2013 than it was last year. Pretax losses of $462 million - on revenue of $6.7 billion - represented a year-over-year change of -$313 million. In South American, the company reported a loss of $218 million, down from a slim profit of $54 million in Q1 2012. The news was better for Ford Asia Pacific Africa, where a $6 million pretax profit in 2013 showed a year-over-year gain of some $101 million when compared to losses in 2012.

2015 Ford Mustang Convertible makes inappropriate appearance in Detroit [w/video]

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

With the polar vortex fresh in the minds of Autoblog's Detroit-based staff, we're finding it funny that any manufacturer would choose January in the Motor City to show off a new and highly anticipated convertible to the general media and public for the first time. But Ford has done just that, giving us our first real peek at the new Mustang Convertible in the flesh.
The new Mustang Convertible is more or less unchanged from the standard coupe, with some subtle styling tweaks to accommodate the retractable soft top. Engine and transmission choices are identical to the hardtop, although we should expect slightly lower performance due to the hardware for the roof. Like the coupe, neither prices nor performance metrics have been published yet for the convertible.
