 This is a 1971 Stroppe prepared Baja Bronco. This Bronco is number 6 on the Baja Bronco registry. It has a deluxe Marti report. I have driven this Bronco from California to the state of Washington to Mississippi. I drove it to the Bronco meet in Townsend, Tennessee. In other words I go where I want to in it. The paint is driver quality and although nice it does have some minor rock chips and such from driving. Its been on trails around Moab and over several of the high passes in Colorado including Black Bear, Imogene and Engineers. As I said, its a driver.

So, why am I selling. Its at a point where I've got to have air conditioning. Simple as that. Installing AC is not my first choice. So I thought I would try to sell it and if that doesn't work then I'll bite the bullet and install AC. I would consider a trade but ONLY for a really NICE 72 - 77, air conditioned, automatic Bronco. If its got rust or had major panels replaced, not interested.

Now for the details. This is a nice rust free March/1971 Bronco. I picked it up from Andrew Norton in Saratoga, CA last year. As best we can tell, this Bronco was never abused, neglected or left to sit for extended periods of time. It still has the original interior in it except for the dash pad and floor mat. It has extra insulation on the firewall and floors. All the glass is good. As I stated, the paint is good not show quality but great for a driver. The front edges of the front fenders were trimmed at some time to clear larger wheels and tires. All gauges, signal lights, horn, and tanks work as they should. Heater, defroster and windshield wipers all function properly. The steering wheel is the original Stroppe rubber wheel, not pristine, but still the original one.

The engine and trans have been freshened up, it has power steering and power disc brakes on the front. 9" rear and dana 44 front with 4.10 gears and locking hubs. The tires and wheels are new with less than 10000 miles on them. It has a new carb on it. H4 lights with aftermarket harness upgrade. New centech wiring harness.

 I could go on and on, but if you're looking at this ad, you probably already know what you're looking at. This is not one of those BS ads about a Baja Bronco you see on here every so often. This is a good solid serviceable Bronco, you'll be proud to own and drive.

I encourage questions since this is a high end purchase. I can be reached through eBay messaging or you can text or call 662-three six four-3368 most anytime since I'm retired.

If you have zero feedback, don't waste my time. It never works out. If you don't have the cash, don't waste my time. $2000 non-refundable deposit within 48 hours of end of sale through Paypal, rest in cash at pickup unless prior arrangements are made.

Thanks for your time

Evo grabs Ford's Fiesta R5 rally car by the scruff

Wed, 04 Sep 2013

Evo and host Henry Catchpole were thinking of excuses reasons to borrow the bonkers Ford Fiesta R5 rally car for a day or two, when it struck them: the car is street legal. With access to the R5, some of the world's most beautiful driving roads in the English Lake Country nearby, and a handy video crewing hanging around, the plan seemed to write itself.
Based on the resulting video, it was a good plan. Without spoiling the video for you - something we can't really do in text as the best part is listening to the rally car run - Catchpole finds the Fiesta to be sublimely quick and massively satisfying. Even taking the car for a spin on a pseudo rally stage, after leaving the English countryside, does nothing but add to his assessment of the beastly little Ford. Scroll on below to see for yourself, and enjoy the ride.

Here's what the UAW will be angling for in next year's contract negotiations

Mon, Dec 15 2014

The United Auto Workers union is about to enter a new round of negotiations with the Detroit Three automakers, and this time, the focus is on the end of the two-tier wage system. Introduced in 2007, the two-tier wage system was enacted to allow General Motors, Ford and Chrysler to categorize its hourly employees under two categories: Tier 1 for veteran employees with full rights and benefits, and Tier 2 for short-term or entry-level employees compensated under a different schedule. The idea was that the system would permit the automakers to invest more in their plants and hire new employees as part of their respective recovery plans without being saddled with all the costs associated with hiring full-time employees. Now that the automakers are (more or less) back on their proverbial feet, however, the UAW wants to see an end to the two-tier system, and will likely make that a center-point of its negotiations next year to replace the current arrangement that is scheduled to end in September 2015. Not all members of the UAW will necessarily be interested in ending the two-tier system, however. According to The Detroit News, some Tier 1 workers may be more interested in negotiating a raise in their hourly rate – something which they haven't received in almost a decade. Tier 2 workers, meanwhile, may be more motivated to keep the tiered system in place, as their arrangement includes provisions for profit-sharing payments that have seen the automakers pay out billions to so-called short-term employees in lump-sum payments. Reconciling the two competing demands from two categories of union members and presenting a united front in negotiations may prove the biggest challenge for the UAW's new president, Dennis Williams. And with the right to strike – something which was suspended during the last round of negotiations in 2011 – the union has a bigger bargaining chip in its pocket.
