Up for auction is a 1987 FORD BRONCO FULL SIZE WITH THE CUSTOM PACKAGE.  The Custom Package comes from the factory as the base model (the most desirable for collectors) and consists of a no-frills interior with rubber flooring, vinyl seats, manual windows, manual door locks, power steering, power disc brakes, air conditioning, a manual four speed transmission, four wheel drive and a power rear window. This Bronco was owned by one of the members of the King family, the owners of the famed King Ranch in South Texas and has his name on the CLEAR TEXAS TITLE, THE TRUCK WAS ORIGINALLY PURCHASED AND HAS ALWAYS LIVED IN DRY SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS.  The tires are ALMOST NEW BF GOODRICH ALL TERRAIN TIRES and this truck is IN FANTASTIC SHAPE with the  ORIGINAL PAINT ( the clear coat has come off the hood and some of the edges on the body which is typical of silver paint on Fords) , NO RUST, NO WRECKS OR DAMAGE TO THE BODY EVER.  You can tell by looking at the chassis of this truck that  THIS BRONCO HAS SEEN VERY LITTLE OFF ROAD USE, I was told by Mr. King that the off road use was limited to the dirt roads around the ranch. The truck is a FACTORY CUSTOM PACKAGE which consists of RUBBER FLOORING THAT YOU CAN WASH OUT WITH A WATER HOSE IF YOU CHOOSE TOO, VINYL BUCKET SEATS UP FRONT AND A MATCHING VINYL BENCH SEAT IN THE BACK, POWER STEERING, POWER DISC BRAKES, FOUR WHEEL DRIVE WITH MANUAL LOCKING HUBS, A FOUR SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION, AIR CONDITIONING (blows cold) and AM/FM/ CASSETTE RADIO (stock stereo still works but stock speakers need replacing). Like the exterior of the truck the interior is also in superb condition, there is a tear in the rubber flooring on the passenger side, the stock shifter knob will not tighten down and is somewhat annoying, and the gas gauge works perfectly (when it wants too) but other than that everything works as it should, THE DASH HAS NO CRACKS, and the truck is very comfortable, clean and has no funny smells etc.  I have just had $1200.00 of work done on the truck (10/21/13) at Cambridge Automotive, San Antonio's best automotive shop according to AAA. Cambridge did a safety check, serviced the air conditioning, a full lubrication service, a major tune up, a fuel injection service, installed a NEW AC DELCO BATTERY and fixed the rear power window. The invoice for all this recent work come with the sell of the truck and all work and parts are fully warranted for 24 months or 24,000 miles and Cambridge will honor the warranty if the buyer is not from San Antonio. The buyer would just have to take the truck to a AAA approved place of repair and Cambridge will incur any and all cost of work that is under their warranty. The Bronco passed the safety inspection with flying colors and the only thing that was recommended by Cambridge is that the truck may need a new muffler at some point in the near future. The truck still has the original exhaust system on it and although the exhaust system is still fully functional and quiet, Cambridge said that the muffler is old( but it did not NEED to be replaced AT THIS TIME). This Bronco is VERY DEPENDABLE AND SOLID, IT IS A VEHICLE THAT YOU CAN FLY IN AND DRIVE HOME FROM ANYWHERE. The only non-stock items on this Bronco is the BF GOODRICH tires and the RANCH HAND FRONT GRILL GUARD, everything else is BONE FACTORY STOCK. The FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM WORKS FLAWLESSLY and the FRONT END IS TIGHT WITH NO PLAY OR WANDERING,  the BRAKES ARE GOOD AND TRUE AND DO NOT PULL UNDER HARD BRAKING.  The way I came to have this Bronco is that I have built multiple 1978-79 Ford Broncos from the ground up and the last one I built was a 1979 that I owned and drove for 12 years. Mr. King bought my 1979 Bronco from me 6 years ago with the understanding that if he ever wanted to sell it that I would have first right of refusal so true to his word Mr. King called me a few months ago and told me he was thinking of selling the 1979 Bronco and asked me if I wanted to buy it back. Of course I was curious and went to look at my old 79 Bronco and when I arrived at Mr. Kings home I noticed this 1987 Bronco also sitting in his shop and made an offer on both Bronco's which he accepted, I am keeping my old friend (the 1979 Bronco that I built all those years ago) and was planning to keep this 1987 Bronco to drive on my ranch in Colorado but after careful consideration I have decided that a truck would better serve me on the ranch and I do not need two Broncos so this 1987 is now up for auction. This Bronco is NOT your typical "ridden hard and put up wet" Bronco, this Bronco has been very well taken care of and it shows throughout the truck. THIS IS A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN ONE OF THE MOST DESIRABLE BRONCOS IN EXISTENCE. THEY JUST DO NOT COME UP FOR SALE IN THIS WONDERFUL STOCK CONDITION WITH THESE OPTIONS. DO NOT LET THIS BRONCO PASS YOU BY, YOU WILL REGRET IT. IF YOU HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THE BEST BRONCO YOU CAN FIND , LOOK NO FURTHER, THIS IS IT !!!!!!!  THIS BRONCO ALSO COMES WITH ALL THE ORIGINAL BOOKS, MANUALS, WARRANTY CARDS, TRIM TAG, SERVICE AGREEMENT, ETC. FROM THE FACTORY WHEN THE TRUCK WAS BRAND NEW AND HAS ONLY 109600 ORIGINAL MILES. THIS BRONCO IS PRICED AT HALF THE COST OF ANY COMPARABLE BRONCO ON EBAY, YOU JUST CAN'T GO WRONG WITH THIS ONE. Please checkout my feedback, bid with confidence and bid to win this BEAUTIFUL FACTORY ORIGINAL 1987 FORD BRONCO CUSTOM PACKAGE.  Thank you for looking at my auction, be sure to check out my other auctions and as always HAPPY MOTORING.                                                    ****A $500.00 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT IS DUE 24 HOURS AFTER THE CLOSE OF THE AUCTION AND THE REMAINDER OF THE FUNDS ARE DUE WITHIN 7 DAYS OF THE CLOSE OF THE AUCTION.*******

Ford will build Hackmobile out of Transit Connect Wagon

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

What you see in the above image is a rendering of the Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon. What is that? It's a "mobile fabrication and hacking unit" that includes tools for metal- and woodworking, 3D and electronics fabrication, a three-axis CNC machine called "The Fabber," a video projector and screen, an air compressor, an 84x48-inch work surface that folds out like a Murphy bed and oh so much more. When not in use, all of the implements fold neatly into the back of Ford's award-winning van.
But perhaps the more important question is why is that? Because Make Magazine held an Ultimate Maker Vehicle Challenge in conjunction with Ford in which ten teams created were charged with creating "the ultimate Ford Transit Connect Wagon for the do-it-yourself enthusiast." Team Twin Cities Maker won the competition with the Hackmobile, and in addition to winning $10,000, Ford has declared it's actually going to build the thing - which is great, because if they can actually engineer a road-legal Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon as envisioned, the inevitable A-Team movie reboot might need to think about including it.
Check out the video below for a cheeky walk-through of the Hackmobile, and get all the particulars in the press release below that.

Ford bondage ads reportedly trigger firings at Indian ad agency

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

You will probably remember the ads for the Ford Figo hatchback in India, the ones that showcased the extra large boot of the little hatchback by joking that you can fit three of your enemies in the trunk. One of the ads had Michael Schumacher in the front seat, obviously pleased about having Sebastian Vettel, Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso tied up in the back. But the other two had Paris Hilton and ex-Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi up front and three bound and gagged women in the back - in Hilton's case (shown above), it was the Kardashians.
This did not go over well, and Reuters reports that certain employees at JWT India have been fired over the matter. It is also reported that the images weren't actual advertisements, nor were they part of an actual campaign; JWT said they "were never intended for paid publication, were never requested by our Ford client." A JWT rep said the employees who created the ads did so on their own, Ford commented to Automotive News that the ads were "part of a creative exercise intended to test concepts for an advertising competition."
The problem, if the story is to be believed, is that the employees skipped the regular review protocols and uploaded their work to an ad industry site - they were found on Ads of the World. That page, like the employees, has been removed.

Report: GM struggling to market turbo technology

Tue, 20 Apr 2010

In the automotive realm, marketing can sometimes prove just as important as the actual product. Take, for instance, Ford's well regarded EcoBoost technology, which couples turbocharging with direct injection to produce more horsepower and reduce fuel consumption. Would it surprise you to hear that General Motors has had similar technology on the market for over three years?
It's true. GM's first turbocharged, direct injected powerplants hit the market for the 2007 model. The 2.0-liter Ecotec mills put down an impressive 260 horsepower and a matching 260 pound-feet of torque, and they were lauded by the press in the engine bays of the Pontiac Solstice, Saturn Sky, Chevrolet Cobalt SS and Chevrolet HHR SS. But few people outside a core group of enthusiasts actually remember this fact.
Says Uwe Grebe, executive director of GM's global advanced engineering, "We didn't have a badge and say, 'This is the most important thing we will put on all our brochures.'" Ford, however, did just that, and it's EcoBoost engines are right at the tips of all our tongues when we discuss today's most advanced powerplants. So, how does The General fix its mistake?
