1975 Ford Bronco Sport on 2040-cars
Kinston, North Carolina, United States
1975 Ford Bronco Sport. The Bronco just underwent an extensive restoration and is in excellent
condition. The rust that existed was either cut out and patched or the entire sheet metal was removed and replaced (i.e. floors, wheel tubs, etc.). The underbody was sanded down and fully coated.
This is a low mileage example with only +/-75,000 ORIGINAL miles. There have been less than 100 miles added since
completion of the restoration.
The truck is sporting a 6 inch Wild Horses suspension lift and it has NO BODY LIFT, ALL SUSPENSION. It rides
surprisingly smooth with the coils for as big as it is... It sits on 37" tires that are basically brand new (they
still have the nipples ... not the little ones either, these nipples are straight out of national geographic)
The truck is powered by a strong running 302 motor that was rebuilt years ago. I added an additional accessory fan
to help cool the motor on those hot days and it has a nice dual exhaust so you can still hear this puppy purr over
the wind whistlin' in your ears
Power is put to the mud/trail/asphalt eating monster tires via a rebuilt C4 Automatic transmission through a
Cheetah SCS shifter. The truck has a new transfer case as well.
There are 2 fuel tanks (a primary and an auxiliary) as well as a switch for the driver to change tanks in case one
runs out. Both are run by independent electric fuel pumps, wired to the ignition. The rear tank was replaced during
the restoration and the auxiliary tank is a newer plastic unit, so no issues or long-term concerns for rust! It's
like double-fisting fun... When one side's out, just switch to the other and keep on keepin' on!!

Ford to auction Mustang Cobra Jet prototype for charity [w/video]
Mon, 16 Sep 2013Prototypes developed by major automakers typically remain in said company's custody, but every once in a while, one trickles out into private hands. And that's just what we have here. Ford is donating a one-of-a-kind factory prototype for the 2014 Mustang Cobra Jet that will be auctioned off later this month by Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
Powered by a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 mated to a T4 competition gearbox, this rare Cobra Jet prototype includes a wheelie bar, chromoly roll cage, Weld wheels, three-link rear suspension, racing brakes, 9-inch rear axle and more. It's painted in a unique satin orange with reflective gray striping scheme, bears the serial number 2014 BJMS CJXX1 and is fully ready for NHRA competition on the drag strip.
To be offered with no reserve on Saturday, September 28, 2013, the Cobra Jet prototype's winning bidder will also receive tutelage at Roy Hill's Drag Racing School in Sophia, NC, along with tours of the Ford Product Development Center, Ford Racing headquarters and Ford Design Studios with Mustang chief engineer Dave Pericak. Scope out the video and details below for what could be the ultimate Mustang experience for a good cause.
Watch this Ford F-150 SVT Raptor fly like an eagle [UPDATE]
Mon, 04 Feb 2013The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is a very capable truck right out of the box, but "capable" has never translated into "invincible." Just ask the owner of the machine in this video. In it, the driver gets frisky with an aggressive jump with plenty of speed on his hands. The result is enough air to make Vaughn Gittin Jr. blush. As always, it's not the launch that's painful, but the re-entry. Gravity eventually asserts its dominance over the $43,630 pickup in a big way, and when it comes crashing down, it does so with a vengeance.
The impact was hard enough to set off both the alarm and multiple airbags inside the cabin. It's unclear if anyone was injured in the stunt, but we certainly wouldn't be surprised to hear that was the case. You can check out the stunt in the video below, and remember, when in doubt, back out of the throttle. Be warned, there may be some explicit/NSFW language in the clip.
UPDATE: Second video added with an even better look at the jump added below.
2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid recalled over lack of roof padding
Mon, 29 Jul 2013Ford is recalling 33,021 units of its 2013 C-Max Hybrid not equipped with optional panoramic roof panels. During testing, the model in question returned testing results for occupant head injuries that fell outside of criteria laid out in the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. The issue puts occupants at greater risk of injury in the event of a crash if they are in an affected car.
The recall will begin August 19, at which time C-Max Hybrid owners can take their cars to dealers to have energy-absorbent material installed between the headliner and roof. The bulletin below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has more information.
