1976 Ford Bronco Sport (special Decor Group) Original V8 302 Automatic Blue on 2040-cars

Brooklyn, New York, United States

You are viewing a rare 1976 original uncut Ford Bronco. I bought this Bronco 5 years ago from the second owner in Western Pennsylvania. It sat in his garage/barn and rarely used. I tried to buy it for years and to make a long story short...I got it. I'm now entertaining the idea of selling it but not thrilled about it. Job is relocating us to Virginia and I have been paying tons of money to keep this bronco indoors while my time in NYC. When I purchased the Bronco, I had the fuel lines and rear/main tank system removed and replaced. All new brakes disc and drum. Motor completely gone through and replaced most if not all seals/gaskets. New tires, shocks, struts, and dual pipes. Motor valve covers repainted to original ford blue. The Bronco runs great, drives great, steers awesome (power steering) and looks cool. Lot's of attention no doubt. To bring this Bronco to the next level, body work/paint (back to the special decor group package would be my suggestion) new original seat covers, new auxiliary tank, and determine small oil leak. All this was and still is my plan if she does not find a new home. Rust repair will be needed at some point under the driver door. Not visible until you look underneath. This is an original 1976 Bronco so please be aware that there are possibilities of rust and etc. The paint is not that great...the second owner tells me that the original owner sprayed over the original blue and white strips (Special Decor Group Package) which is a complete shame. You can visibly still see the cool white strips when you open the hood and door jambs. The current paint is decent in pictures and 10 feet away but if you are looking for something above that, then please understand this is not it. I personally have enjoyed this Bronco as is for the last 5 years and hate to part with it but the move, wife, and child....well lets just say it's not priority right now. I will regret it later, especially if someone restores her back to the white stripe Special Decor Group. I encourage you to research this rare option. As for price, please do not offer me some ridiculous low price. If you are in the market for a rare uncut original 1976 Bronco then you already know they are not cheap. I'm in no rush to sell it and it will be sold to the highest bidder. Will not sell before end of auction. I will absolutely assist with any pick up for this Bronco and accommodate any requests to view it. Good luck...

2013 Shelby 1000 unleashes its 1,200 horsepower ahead of NY show reveal

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

True story: Last fall, I had the opportunity to spend a week with Ford's new 2013 Shelby GT500 - the Blue Oval's factory Mustang with 662 horsepower and 631 pound-feet of torque. It's an amazing beast, to be sure. I'm not sure if it was Michigan's damp streets strewn with potholes and wet leaves, but at no point did I ever say to myself, "You know, Ford is on to a really good thing here, but what it really needs is about twice the power." And yet, for people in warmer climes with infrastructure in better nick - or for those whose muscle cars live their lives out on the track, there's apparently sufficient demand to warrant just such a beast.
Quick studies will recall that Shelby American launched its 1000 last year to commemorate its 50th anniversary, but it is returning to the New York Auto Show with a fresh version based on the 2013 GT500 I drove. The 2013 Shelby 1000 whips up 1,200 horsepower on pump gas thanks to beefed-up forced induction, engine internals and cooling. Wisely, it also incorporates an adjustable suspension and big brake package to make sure those ponies have the best chance being safely deployed to the ground.
What price the world's most powerful "production" muscle car? $154,995 for starters - donor GT500 not included. What, no convertible variant?

Ford Police Interceptor with 2.0L EcoBoost rated most fuel-efficient police sedan

Tue, 26 Nov 2013

Back in September, Ford announced a non-pursuit version of its Police Interceptor Sedan, which swaps out a choice of two V6 engines for a fuel-efficient 2.0-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder. This Special Service Police Sedan will be marketed to law enforcement agencies looking to cut fuel costs and don't need the extra power.
For college campuses, detectives and the like, this new police car has now been certified with EPA fuel economy estimates of 20 miles per gallon in the city, 32 mpg on the highway and a combined rating of 24 mpg. These figures represent a decrease of two mpg in city and combined ratings compared to the civilian-spec 2014 Taurus. These police cars still offer active grille shutters for better aerodynamics, although we're guessing agencies upfitting their cars with light bars and push bumpers aren't exactly concerted with aerodynamics. The true benefit of the SSP version is when it's compared against other police sedan options like the Dodge Charger, Chevy Impala, Chevy Caprice and even the V6 Police Interceptor Sedan.
Ford claims the new Police Interceptor Sedan SSP is the most fuel-efficient current option for police departments, saying that this car can save $1,720 per car over three years and almost $260,000 over the same span of time for fleets with 150 vehicles. There is an official press release posted below, and also check out the gallery of images from Ford collected from various police agencies across the US (although none show the 2.0-liter SSP model). Head on over to Ford's Police Interceptor mini-site for even more pictures of the Police Interceptor Sedan and Utility.

2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost

Fri, 09 May 2014

I'll be honest; when Ford first unveiled its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, I was skeptical. Past attempts at building turbocharged American cars were almost universally awful, I reasoned, so why would Ford's latest effort be any different? This may seem foolish today, considering the success that the growing EcoBoost range has achieved - particularly the 2.0-liter and 1.6-liter mills. Yet I once again found myself questioning Ford.
It's the makeup of the 1.0-liter, turbocharged three-cylinder slotted into the compact engine bay of this Fiesta that has a way of breeding doubt. Three-cylinder engines remain an extreme rarity in the US. What's more, they earned a less-than-desirable reputation for applications in the 1980s and 1990s, and my trepidation about this latest three-pot as a result.
As I found out, though, history is a poor informant of modern technology. The thrust available in other cars with the EcoBoost badge on the back has not gone missing here; something the International Engine of the Year committee has lauded. That august body named the 1.0-liter Ecoboost the best engine of 2012 and 2013. After a week of driving, it didn't take long for my fear of threes to get turned into something like that line of thinking.
