1970 Bronco on 2040-cars
Bridgehampton, New York, United States
Hello, up for sale is an incredible fully rebuilt 1970 Ford Bronco with an off frame restoration including all brand new parts with Ford F-150 transmission and engine, raised suspension, drive train, electrical system, wheels, brakes, tires, large gas tank, custom 1952 Ford Blue paint job with detailed hood and doors. Virtually everything was replaced or restored. This truck is also equipped with an electric wench, kill switch, auxiliary electric fan, spare tire and large wheels with bubble tires. I purchased the truck five years ago from an American Airline mechanic who built it from the ground up. This was his third Ford Bronco and was forced to sell it due to college tuition. He gave me over $35,000 dollars in receipts for the restoration. The truck has under 25,000 miles which is artificially high due to the large wheels. There are no dents but there is body rust some minor scratches by the spare and under the black interior coating as seen in THE PICTURES full disclosure, we are selling the truck as I purchased it, As Is. I am sure a body shop can remove it easily and I always felt it gave the Bronco some character. The truck starts right up every time and has fuel injection. This Bronco can handle almost any terrain and designed to be a rock crawler, however we used it to go back and from the beach. It is a four speed manual transmission with a separate stick for putting it into four wheel drive. There is a special system to ease the brakes but I never used it. There is a tachometer mounted to the steering wheel and a fire extinguisher that looks cool, but never used. This truck turns head whenever I drive it and many people have tried to buy it over the years. Currently in our summer home in Bridgehampton, NY if you want to see it in person Please message for all offers and questions. Will respond quickly and do not hesitate for anything. Every offer will be considered. Buyer pays shipping. Happy Bidding! **For international inquires please contact me. (502) 565-2185 please text before calling. On Apr-15-14 at 14:33:09 PDT, seller added the following information: Just thought I'd drop you a note in case you wanted to post it for everyone to see. I know that Bronco very well. Even though it was not "built" by the previous owner, it was from Tulsa, Ok. Darrel Lewis built the truck originally and sold it to the PO. Darrel built the motor (stout 351W), which has a Howell fuel injection system on it, built and installed the NP435 and much more. From there, Gordon Bailie, owner of Bailie Bilt (well known builder/fabricator in Tulsa, Ok) built the roll bar, bumpers, tire carrier, ram assist, heim steering, paint and body work and many many other things. The truck has a NP435 4-speed manual transmission in it. |

Hot sales have Detroit automakers shortening summer shutdowns
Tue, 08 Jul 2014Back in May, there was speculation that the Detroit Three automakers would maintain or perhaps even extend their traditional summer shutdowns, mostly due to a bitingly cold winter that saw below-freezing temperatures infiltrate the southernmost reaches of the US, putting a chill on auto sales. Now, though, the numbers are in, and thanks to some promising sales figures, it looks like some domestic line workers are going to be working clear through July, in some cases.
According to Automotive News, Ford has slashed its traditional two-week hiatus for factory workers in half at four of its plants, while both Chrysler and General Motors will keep factories running nonstop (two plants in Chrysler's case and a third of GM's factories).
This is, as we said, thanks to some positive numbers. Chief among those is the Seasonal Adjusted Annual Rate, which was at an eight-year high of 17 million units. Individual figures were less promising. GM, embroiled in its recall scandal, still saw a one-percent increase while Ford dropped six percent in year-over-year sales. Chrysler was the big winner, though, with a nine-percent jump in June.
An amazing Group B rally car collection heads to auction
Tue, Jan 26 2021Kicking off in 1982, the Group B era spawned some of the most fearsome rally cars of all time. The technologically advanced pioneers of all-wheel drive and turbocharging defined a time when automakers had carte blanche to build machines with unrestricted power, without the burden of homologating a large number of road cars to qualify. The results were sometimes deadly, leading the FIA to ban the class after 1986. Now, a collection of seven Group B monsters is headed across the block in Paris as part of the Artcurial auction, held in partnership with France's famed Retromobile show. The show has been delayed to June, however. There's a 1985 Peugeot 205 Turbo 16, one of 20 Evo II models that helped the company achieve two championships in Group B's short run. This particular example was driven by world champion Timo Salonen at the 1986 Swedish Rally, where it finished seventh due to an oil filter seal failure. Bruno Saby subsequently drove it at the 1986 Tour de Corse and Peugeot entered it at the 1986 Acropolis Rally as well. It's still registered to Peugeot Talbot Sport and represents a French technological achievement, according to Artcurial, comparable to the Concorde or TGV train. Representing Italy are a pair of Lancias in the iconic Martini livery. The Lancia 037 helped Bel Paese clinch its only Group B victory in 1983, after a hard-fought rivalry with Audi. It's one of the few Group B cars that weren't AWD, achieving its success the old-fashioned way, through lightness and superb handling. A second Lancia, a 1986 Delta S4, was the culmination of the Italian firm's later Group B efforts and one of Saby's favorites. While Group B was no more in 1987, the S4 was the predecessor to the Delta Integrale that would dominate WRC from 1987 through 1992. While the collection also includes greats like a Ford RS200, Renault 5 Maxi Turbo, and MG Metro 6R4, the centerpiece is the Audi Quattro Sport S1. The ultimate Group B machine, it introduced all-wheel-drive and turbocharging to the sport. It also employed the wildest use of wings and air dams to generate downforce. Tunable up to 590 horsepower, it could rocket to 60 mph in about three seconds. The car offered for sale came straight from Ingolstadt, a 1988 model built for the Race of Champions of ex-Group B cars. The collection was amassed in the late 80s and early 90s, not long after Group B's dissolution.
2016 Ford Mustang SVT hides big power under its domed hood
Tue, 17 Jun 2014With a number of 2015 Ford Mustang versions finally available to configure, the fun of speculating about next year's high-performance 'Stang can now begin. It looks like Ford has something seriously fun planned too. One of our spy photographers just snapped some fresh pics of the 2016 Mustang SVT, which is believed to be hiding the final body shape under all of that heavy camouflage.
Ford clearly doesn't want prying eyes looking at its new pride and joy. It would be hard to put much more obfuscation on a car than this one wears - it even has mesh baffles around the exhausts to conceal how many there are and panels over the wheels to hide their design. However, the Blue Oval can't keep everything a secret. The biggest clue that something special is hidden underneath is the massive hood bulge and vent in front of it. Clearly, whatever is under there is hungry for cool air. The shape of the camo indicates that there may be fender vents on each side, and there are also obscured outlets behind the front wheels likely to pull cool air through the brakes. At the rear, the concealment does its job, making it hard to observe any big changes. The fact that Ford wants it kept such a secret might indicate something, though.
A few photos of the interior show far less cover than the outside. You can easily make out the model's 6,500 rpm redline with a possible 7,000 rpm over-rev function. The big Recaro sport seats also look quite supportive.
