Excellent 1976 Ford Bronco Ranger Uncut LUBR. This Bronco is a daily driver that draws stares and thumbs up wherever it goes. You can't go into the supermarket without someone crawling around it or asking about it. Spends 99% of its time with the top off in the garage.   It is not a frame off but has been totally redone and gone through.  Drives straight at speed and with hands off the wheel (it is almost 40 years old though) power steering and power brakes.The body was stripped to bare metal and two or three small rust spots replaced with new metal.  The entire tub and bed was shot with Raptor as well as the underneath of the hood and engine compartment. New 3 1/2" lift with new springs, leafs and shocks from Bronco Graveyard as well as new steering stabilizer. Brand new Warn hubs and U joints. Paint is less than a year old in PPG Medium Blue Poly with Whimbelton White top and grill.  Original 302 Engine was replaced due to cracked freezing block at 72,000 miles with a Hi Po 289 from a 66 Mustang. Engine has Holley carb Edelbrock manifold and headers which are all less than one year old. Also a brand new 2 into 1 exhaust from headers back was just installed also. Nice quiet rumble without the obnoxious drone. Interior has new carpet, trim, seat covers, door panels, locks. Also a stereo with Aux input four Rockford Fosgate 6x9s and two Subwoofer behind the rear bench seat.  The C4 tranny shifts smooth and no leaks.  This Bronco has been used for fun and show not four wheeling as I have two 4x4's for that.  Spends most of the sitting in the garage waiting for nice days.  All gauges work (replacement temp) and turn signals.  Heater is strong and all door and windows have brand new felts and weatherstrip.  New windshield with no chips and new body trim and most lenses..  This rig also comes with two sets of tires and rims, white spokes with 31x10.50 x 15 mudders and 30x9.50x15 at's with mags.The truck no longer has 6pt, only 4pt cage, kid too tall (6'9"). new dash pad and fully insulated top and padded full carpet for noise deadening. This is not a trailer queen or show Bronco but instead a fun great looking rig that will only appreciate in value. Kids are off to college so time for a new dad only toy. Some original owner paperwork and tags. A little mud/dirt in some of the pictures

2015 Ford S-Max adds all-wheel drive, adaptive steering

Fri, 03 Oct 2014

The Blue Oval's 'One Ford' mantra has seen rapid commonization of the automaker's products across markets, but North America still has to look from afar at most of the company's Max-branded people movers, including this new S-Max. That's a bit of a shame - we like the space efficiency and above-average driving dynamics of the C-Max models we do get, but seeing this updated seven-seat small minivan makes us want the One Ford initiative to extend even further.
The new model's changes include an updated powertrain range including a 1.5-liter EcoBoost four with 158 horsepower, and a larger, 237-horsepower, 2.0-liter model, along with a pair of revised lower-emissions 2.0-liter diesels. The big news, however, is the advent of available all-wheel drive, something that hasn't been offered since the S-Max first went on sale back in 2006.
On the technology front, the S-Max is the first European model to receive Ford Adaptive Steering, a variable-ratio technology we recently sampled in a prototype Fusion that is expected to go into production on the next-generation Edge. The S-Max also receives a new aluminum-intensive integral link rear suspension, packaged to continue to fit up to 32 different seating combinations. Safety equipment is always a prime concern in kinschleppers like the S-Max, and to that end, this new model receives pre-collision assist technology and LED headlamps.

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books

Fri, 08 Aug 2014

The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.

2014 Ford Cobra Jet announced with new colors, parachute mount

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

Ford's drag-strip-ready Mustang Cobra Jet is back for 2014, and it's sporting a few changes to make it even better - both in competition and while sitting still. Rolling off the assembly line ready for duty in the NHRA Stock or Super Stock classes, production of the 2014 Cobra Jet is limited to just 50 units.
Racing upgrades for 2014 include the addition of a new three-speed transmission and a parachute mount, and while these will make the car better in the quarter mile, the Cobra Jet's new colors will make it look better tearing down the track. Buyers can now get their racecars painted up in Gotta Have-It Green or a custom, Cobra Jet-exclusive matte black hue. Ford and Ford Racing have already teamed up to make this an incredible factory drag racer with a full rollcage, massive Hoosier slicks, a race-tuned suspension setup and a supercharged 5.0-liter V8. Now, if only wheelie bars came standard...
Unlike the confusing third-party ordering system announced for the COPO Camaro, all you need to snatch up a 2014 Cobra Jet is $97,990 and good timing (as the cars will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis). Ordering opens up next month with production commencing in July. Check out the press release below.
