Here is a great deal on a very cool 1973 Ford Bronco.


I'm selling this Bronco for my friend.  He purchased the truck in 2010 for $28,000.  He immediately got it appraised for insurance reasons and the appraisal came to $26,135.  I have a copy of the appraisal and the $265 invoice that will go with the truck.  The title is clear and he paid $3,134 to get it current and plated.  He had the 351 cu motor rebuilt and spent another $20,000 on upgrades over the last three years.  I have most of the documented receipts for the parts and itemized costs so the new buyer will know exactly what's new.  It was meant to be a weekend cruiser at his Malibu beach house and during the three years that he worked on it he might have put 25 miles on it.  Since then he and his wife had two little boys so the Bronco has to go.  I drove it from his beach house to mine and it ran fine but my kidneys weren't happy.  She's meaty, beaty, big and bouncy!  The approximate total he has into it is $52,000 and that does not include the hundreds of hours he put into it himself.  I just installed a new battery yesterday. The stereo has a locked compartment and there is an amp under the passenger seat and a monster base box behind the rear seat.  Everything works as it should.  I'm not a mechanic nor a body man but here's a couple things I noticed.  The entire exhaust system is new and the tailpipe needs to be attached.  I think it was ordered separately and not installed and yes it goes with the truck. Gas tank is brand new and the glass is good.  The passenger door needs to be adjusted but it does operate as it should.  Again, I'm not an expert on these so the appraisal and the paperwork will tell the story on this Bronco.  He has between $50-60K into it but he is a realist and asked me to just let it go.  Also included is a big box of spare parts most new in the package and some of the original parts that were replaced and a bikini top.  I'm going to start the auction off at $20,000 with no reserve.  If someone wants it for $25,000 or makes me an offer let me know and I'll let it go.  It's going to be parked in a busy location with a for sale sign on it and I'm also going to advertise it locally so I have the right to end the auction early.

Remember that these Broncos are old and require ongoing maintenance.  The resto is never really complete as most of the Bronco cult enthusiasts understand, but I want it to be clear that this is not a brand new truck.  No warranty, and this truck is being sold in "as-is" condition and no guarantee is otherwise implied.

BMW V8-powered Ford Model A is the definition of Hot Rod

Thu, 20 Jun 2013

Today, hotrodding has a pretty staid definition. Take one classic American car, add one classic American V8, sprinkle with tire smoke and you pretty much have every hot rod to roll out of a shop in the last 40 years. Mike Borroughs knows it wasn't always this way. Once upon a time, getting your bucket to go faster meant grabbing whatever parts were lazing about the yard, bolting them together with a bit of ingenuity and laughing your way down the quarter mile. It's in that spirit that Burroughs built his 1928 Ford Model A.
Rather than turn to the tired flathead or the common Chevrolet small block, Burroughs plucked a 4.0-liter V8 from a 1995 BMW 7 Series. With 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, the engine has no trouble shuffling the old A around town. He had to build a custom chassis to get everything to cooperate, but the result is a 1,500-pound heathen that looks built to harass dry lake beds. You can check it out in the video below. Be warned, the soundtrack by Hanni el Khatib may not be safe for work - awesomeness of this caliber rarely is.

Ford tells Congress it collects and protects some driver data

Fri, 14 Feb 2014

Last month Ford's Jim Farley made waves at the CES when it was reported he told show attendees, "We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing. By the way, we don't supply that data to anyone." Farley and Ford later partially retracted and clarified that statement.
Spurred by a desire for further transparency on data collection policies, Ford representatives answered questions from Congress, specifically Senator Al Franken (D-Minn.), about driver privacy.
The Detroit News reports that Ford told Congress it does collect some vehicle location data in an effort to "troubleshoot and improve our products" on behalf of the driver. Ford went on to say that it only collects limited data after receiving permission from owners.

First 500 European Ford Mustangs reserved in 30 seconds [w/video]

Thu, 29 May 2014

We're pretty sure that any initial concerns Ford had about selling the redesigned Mustang in Europe have been lessened considerably, after the first 500 Euro-spec 2015 Mustangs were been reserved in just 30 seconds. Moreover, 9,300 people attempted to snag one of the coveted orders for the all-new muscle car. Yes, Mustang, you should do quite well across the pond.
The registration event was held during the UEFA (pronounced yu-eh-fa) Champions League Final between Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid.
"We knew there was huge excitement building for the new Ford Mustang coming to Europe, but the response during the UCL Final was overwhelming," said Roelant de Waard, VP of marketing, sales and service for Ford's European outfit. "It was a truly special way to kick off the Ford Mustang era in Europe."
