I am selling my Frame OFF 1976 Ford Bronco and my reserve is less then half its value. After a full blown 100% frame off restoration, I bought this Bronco in 2009 with 1000 miles on it. I have a clear Indiana title to this truck in my name. I have had this Bronco 5 years and it now has 2900 miles on it. I only drive it in nice weather. The previous owner did a 100% nut and bolt frame off restoration on this Bronco and spared no expense. It took him 2 years to restore this Bronco and he PAID out $46,000 in parts. I have in my possession every receipt ever spent on this machine. The receipts are 2 inches thick and I totaled them up and they equal $46,000. This is just the PAID receipts. This $46k does not include the 1000's of hours of labor spent on this machine. I have the restorers name, phone number, and address. This information will be turned over to the buyer in order to contact him. Doug, the restorer, meticulously documented the restoration every step of the way through many, many photographs. Ebay only allows 24 pictures, but if you want more, I have 200 pictures that Doug took during the restoration.
I also have pictures from when Doug bought this truck from Texas and it was rust free. Doug starting buying parts from Wild Horses, Tom's bronco, and BC Bronco which are 3 the big suppliers. We are talking $46,000 in spent receipts. Everything on this bronco was disassembled down to the bare frame and every single part is either new or refurbished. From memory I will try to describe what the Doug did.

1. New Crate 351 motor with new Edelbrock carburetor
2. New Air Conditioning.
3. New Stainless Steel Wind shield frame which allows for the wipers to be below. (Bronco wipers are on top)
4. New 5 Speed Tranny
5. New Dual Gas Tanks which are controlled by switch
6. New WARN Differentials which are controlled independently. In other words, the truck can be front wheel
drive, rear wheel drive, or 4 wheel drive. All 3 options can be independently in High or Low gear.
7. New front Brush Guard
8. New remote wireless Winch
9. New Fog Lights
10. New rear Guard and Spare tire holder and Gas can holder
11. New tires and 5 New rims
12. New Full Roll Cage (Not Installed but goes with the truck)
13. New Radiator Alternator, Battery, Fuel Pump, Oil Pump, etc....
14. New shocks
15. New Lift Kit for a tasteful 3" lift
16. New Exhaust system which rumbles with Flowmaster Mufflers
17. New Wheel Well Fender flares
18. Totally refurbished removable top in perfect condition with dark tinted windows

19. Dark tinted windows all around

20. New steering wheel and the truck turns on a dime. Very tight radius

21. New hydraulic brakes, lines, and rotors which stop on a dime

New EVERYTHING!! New carpet, primer/paint, wiring through out, gauges, radio/CD/flash drive, steering shaft, head liner, sound proofing insulation, belts, battery, every part under the hood is new, every seal, clip,and part on the truck is new except the body, glass, frame, and seats.

The guy I bought it from, Doug, ran out of money and therefore told me that he did not do 3 things to this vehicle.
1. He did not recover the seats. There are no rips or tears and Not needed in my opinion!!
2. He did not fix a very little chip in the windshield. If I did not tell you this, you would not see it. Not needed!!
3. Finally, since the new windshield frame is stainless steel, the paint had a hard time sticking to it in one area. There is a small area on the

windshield frame that looks OK, but if you want it perfect, it would require a repaint. It does not look bad however. I am nitpicking.

I suggest that if you are interested in this Bronco to call me and request the 200 pictures. Some people do not like bidding on Ebay and want to speak to the owner personally. I encourage that!!! You should know WHO you are buying this from. I have 100% feedback and nothing to hide so here is my phone. 317 201-7777. I know it sounds ridiculous how much money and time Doug put into this restoration. To the tune of $70,000. I am letting it go for less half that.

Thanks and Good Luck

Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost sales robust in early going

Tue, 13 May 2014

Okay, okay, okay, so I was just a smidge wrong. Those that read my review of the Ford Fiesta with the new 1.0-liter, EcoBoost engine will know that while I really enjoyed the torquey little three-cylinder, I was concerned that Ford's decision to force 1.0-liter owners into a manual transmission, steel wheels and one trim level might hurt sales of the new engine. I was also concerned that the promised 45-mile-per-gallon highway rating wouldn't be enough to tempt buyers into trying an engine that's so far outside of what the general public is use to. My concerns, though, seem to have been for naught.
While not doing a booming business on the triple-equipped Fiesta, Ford is seeing a take rate of four to eight percent per month in the engine's first few months on sale. Now, four to eight percent might not sound like a lot - if, like last year, the Fiesta sells around 71,000 units, there'd be barely 5,600 1.0-liter models on the road. It is also small potatoes relative to the take rate on EcoBoost-equipped vehicles across the Ford range, which US sales analyst Erich Merkle estimates to be roughly 35 to 40 percent of retail sales. Still, according to The Detroit News, the 1.0-liter is getting adopted at roughly the same rate as the sparkling Fiesta ST, which should be a solid indication of just how well this little engine is doing.
The 1.0-liter's success "really speaks volumes, not just to what we're doing with the Fiesta, but with EcoBoost in general," Merkle told Autoblog.

Rolling footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang hits YouTube [w/video]

Thu, 26 Dec 2013

Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal. There are no burnouts, no donuts, no revving, and thankfully, no music. It's just two minutes and 26 seconds of the new pony car running free in the desert.
So in case you needed more visualizing help, the video below will help you start imagining how you'll look in your 2014 Christmas present to yourself...

Watch these videos of an NHRA racer's bodywork blowing off into a crowd

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

Just a few months ago, fan safety at racetracks was a hot topic following the last-lap NASCAR Nationwide Series crash at Daytona that sent large pieces of racecars into the grandstands injuring 33 fans. Now, a freak incident at a National Hot Rod Association event resulted in a drag racer's bodywork flying into the crowd at the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals in Charlotte over the weekend. The carbon-fiber body of Robert Hight's Ford Mustang funny car blew off toward the end of a run when his engine exploded, but fortunately, the two fans evaluated after the incident were later released without serious injury.
As you can see in the image above, the body flew high into the air before landing on a walkway in front of the grandstands, a bit of happenstance that likely gave most fans enough time and space to move out of the way. Scroll down to watch a couple of videos showing what happened, including one from a fan's perspective that also reveals what appears to be part of the body's metal bracing landing dangerously close to the crowd.
