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 |

2015 Ford Focus gets more Aston-y [w/video]
Tue, 04 Mar 2014With more and more members of the Ford brand adopting a new familial face, the Focus has been left looking like an odd man out. At the Geneva Auto Show, though, it properly rejoined the family, adopting the now familiar Aston Martin-ish grille that's proliferated throughout the range.
Overall, we're liking the refreshed Focus' look. Aside from the new grille, the headlights have been restyled and now look like elongated versions of the lamps on the Focus ST. Functionally, those headlamps are bi-xenon units, complete with an adaptive front lighting system. Out back, the rear retains the same overall look, which has been smoothed out for 2015.
In the cabin, the second-generation of Ford's much-maligned Sync system makes its debut. Sync 2, as it's called, is supposedly more intuitive than the first-gen system. Ford is promising "one-shot" navigation functions for the system. Saying "I'm hungry," should bring up a list of nearby restaurants. Of course, we'll be reserving final judgment until we can test the new system in person.
Woman trades 1914 Model T in for 2013 Corvette
Wed, 17 Apr 2013We're sure that dealers must see all sorts of interesting trade ins, but this one may take the cake. Red River Chevrolet in Bossier City, Louisiana, recently had a customer come in with an odd request. Tina Boyter wanted to trade in three vehicles on a brand-new 2013 Chevy Corvette. Among the hardware was 1980 Corvette, a 1978 Cadillac Eldorado and a 1914 Ford Model T. While the '80 Corvette had been her personal car for years, the '78 Eldorado had belonged to Boyter's mother before she traded up to a Lincoln. The big Caddy had just 10,290 miles on the clock when it was traded in.
And the Model T? Boyter says the car was built as a racer by Ford, and that it had been a show winner for years when it belonged to her father. But, after spending the last 16 years in a museum with its fluids drained, Boyter decided it was time to shed some of the past. She walked into the dealer, laid eyes on a white 2LT Corvette with a red interior and offered to trade all three of the vehicles in on the sports car.
Why not wait for the C7? "I fell in love with that one when I walked in the door," She said. We can't fault her there.
European car sales up 8% in February
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.
