I am letting go of  my 1996 Ford Bronco Eddie Bauer with Fisher 7.5' plow since I no longer need to worry about snow removal and I am a bit short on space in the yard. The truck has 129,000 miles is 4x4 and has the 5.8L V8 and is the Eddie Bauer package. The truck runs strong, shifts solid, starts and goes all the time. It never broke down in a snow storm and plowed the recent blizzard without breaking a sweat. I originally bought the truck to replace a severely aged 1980 F-150 and given that it was in good condition it also has every heavy duty option Ford had available and most luxury options too. It has the tow package with the heavy duty radiator, tranny cooler, 3.73 limited slip rear end, heavy duty front end with quad shocks, and the E40D tranny the same one behind the Powerstoke diesel. Inside it has leather seats, power windows, cruise, AC that blows ice cold, overhead console with temp gage, and rear swing out spare tire bracket. The truck is solid, the floors and chassis are solid, no rot just a little surface rust in places. The only rust is on the exterior fender as can be seen in the pictures in all the typical Bronco locations. This can be fixed easily at this point and you could have a rust free truck no problem. I have done a lot of work to the truck over the past couple of years to keep it in top running shape. I have replaced just about every front end component including ball, joints, tie rods, bushings, shocks, front axle joints, brakes and calipers. The transfer case has been rebuilt, new manual hubs for reliability, new oil pan, front and rear drive shaft universal joints, new rear diff cover, new 850CCA battery, thermostat, and rear brake lines. I also did a tune up last year with new plugs, wires and rotor, filters the whole deal. The items that don't work on the truck is the rear defroster sine I had to replace the rear window glass, the key switch to raise and lower the rear window from the out side and I lost the keyless entry fob when the alarm when haywire and I removed it. The plow is a fisher conventional mount setup with all the engine driven hydraulics. It works great no problems with it and although they can be a bit more cumbersome to put on and off they are reliable and much less prone freeze ups and electrical gremlins. All the hoses on the plow and blade are only two years old and the rams all work fine. I have an extra pump, lift cylinder and control valve manifold available that can possibly go with the truck. The plow blade has a custom back drag blade that works great for tight areas and the plow is solid with no rot. I have lost of picture of the truck and plow, more than can be posted here so if you contact me I can send photos of the truck and in specific areas you request. They go together I am not separating, too much work. If you interested please call me and if you are local come and look the truck over before bidding. I can deliver up to 150 miles if necessary if you are willing to pay for fuel or hook the plow and drive it home.

Ken Block's 1965 Ford Mustang Hoonicorn RTR and CR Supercars Villain are retro done right

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Gymkhana king Ken Block has had a pretty simple car history in his trademark videos, starting out with Subaru Impreza rally cars before moving into Ford Focus racers for the past four installments. His next video, though, Gymkhana Seven, kind of goes back in time.
Rather than the cutting-edge rally racers of past videos, Block will pilot a heavily modified 1965 Ford Mustang, called the Hoonicorn. How heavily modified is it? Well, Block's Hooligan Racing Division, ASD Motorsports and Vaughn Gittin Jr.'s RTR, spent two years working on it, ditching the standard engine and rear-wheel-drive layout and replacing it with a 410-cubic-inch Roush Yates V8. Yes, that's a NASCAR engine, and it produces 845 horsepower.
A NASCAR-powered Mustang would be news in itself, but it's the other powertrain changes made by Block and Co. that really makes headlines. Power is channeled through a one-off Sadev transmission and all-wheel-drive system, meaning that Block has basically married a NASCAR stock car with a WRC racer. ASD also developed the customized suspension, tubular chassis and roll cage. The wide Mustang body is the work of RTR and Block's own Hoonigan Racing Division, while the 18-inch fifteen52 wheels are shod in Pirelli Trofeo R tires that use a specialized compound exclusive to Block.

Production Ford Escort heading for Beijing

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

Ford's long-dormant Escort nameplate returned affixed to a sedan concept at last year's Shanghai Motor Show. While not exactly a beauty, it showed a clean, straightforward take on Ford's current styling. The Blue Oval said at the time that it wanted to create a model that was stylish "but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Job done. A year later, it looks like the minimalist vehicle might make its production debut at the Beijing Motor Show.
Autocar claims that the streetgoing version has been confirmed to it for the upcoming show, but so far, Ford isn't saying. If unveiled, the Escort is likely to be produced locally for the Chinese market with a domestic partner. Powertrain details remain a secret, but it seems highly likely that any production model would use a small three- or four-cylinder engine and front-wheel drive. Sales in other major world markets like ours are unlikely, but a test car was recently spotted in Europe.
Autoblog contacted Ford for confirmation, but the automaker demurred, with a spokesperson saying only, "At the moment, we are not confirming any vehicles planned for the show." It looks like we will have to wait to know for sure.

Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts

Tue, 23 Jul 2013

Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).
