      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

Uber hopes facilities in Detroit will help shape its autonomous future

Mon, Sep 19 2016

Hot off the heels of unleashing its fleet of self-driving vehicles in Pittsburgh, PA, Uber announced plans to open a new facility in the Detroit, MI area, reports Automotive News. The new facility was announced at an event hosted by Society of Automotive Engineers in Detroit, MI. Uber's vice president of global vehicle programs Sherif Marakby revealed the news, reports Automotive News. The facility is meant to help the ride-sharing company collaborate with suppliers and automakers in the area. There's no word on where Uber will build the new facility or how big it will be, as those factors have yet to be determined. Just like Pittsburgh, PA, Detroit, MI could become another testing ground for the ride-sharing company. The latest move to open a facility in the Detroit area comes after Uber offered users in Pittsburgh the chance to ride in one of its autonomous vehicle as it looks to gain vital real-world testing. Uber is utilizing a fleet of modified Ford Fusions. Earlier this year in April, the automaker announced a partnership with Google, Lyft, Uber, and Volvo to develop autonomous cars. A new facility in Detroit would strengthen the partnership and help Uber, as well as Ford put autonomous vehicles on the road faster.

MotorWeek turns back the clock with the 1994 Mustang and Camaro

Thu, Jan 14 2016

The Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro have battled it out for pony car supremacy for as long as most of us can remember, and the latest examples of both coupes continue to offer buyers impressive performance for their price. MotorWeek's Retro Review series remembers a classic battle in that fight in a video that pits the 1994 Mustang GT against the Camaro Z28 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. MotorWeek smokes the tires on both of these coupes at the speedway and shows off how they handle on track. Both vehicles come away with their own advantages in the challenge. The red Mustang packs Ford's 5.0-liter V8 with 215 horsepower and a five-speed manual gearbox. The MotorWeek crew praises the vehicle's stability at high speed and the ease of driving it around the track. The Camaro wins on power with a 275-hp 5.7-liter V8, and the show lauds the Chevy's six-speed manual. Check out the video to relive one entertaining skirmish in the ongoing pony car war.
