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.

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. |

Ford Focus Electric gets $6,000 price drop, now starts at $29,995
Mon, Oct 20 2014In early 2013, the Nissan Leaf shed a massive $6,500 from its $35,200 base price to offer a new starting price of $28,800. Since then, we have seen numerous other plug-in vehicles get smaller price tags, from the Honda Fit EV (lower lease price) to the Chevrolet Volt (around $5,000 lower) to the Mitsubishi i (a $6,130 drop). Last year, Ford lowered the $39,200 price of the Focus Electric by around $4,000, but that hasn't been enough to get the Ford EV to really compete, saleswise, with other plug-in vehicles on the market. But wait, as they say, there's more. This past weekend, Ford lopped another $6,000 from the price of both the 2014 model year Focus EVs currently on dealer lots as well as the redesigned 2015 models that are now rolling out (they're basically the same car, minus some appearance changes). Ford spokesman Aaron Miller confirmed to AutoblogGreen that the Focus EV will now start at $29,995 and said that reducing the price should make the Blue Oval's only pure EV competitive. "We hope by reducing the price we're giving consumers another reason to consider it," he said. Through the end of September 2014, Ford has sold just 1,534 Focus EVs in the US (the model sold 1,335 in the first nine months of 2013). For comparison's sake, the Nissan Leaf starts at $29,010 and sells around 3,000 units a month in the US. Miller notes that the Focus EV has been selling the best on the West Coast, and is also doing well on the East Coast. After that, he said Atlanta and the Great Lakes area also see decent sales of model's admittedly small pie. We can only assume that offering the EV for under $30,000 will make that pie somewhat bigger.
Detroit Three autoworkers could get huge bonuses
Mon, 06 Jan 2014For a long time, being a line worker for one of the Detroit Three has meant living with an uncertain future. With the health of American automakers on the rise, though, things are also starting to look up for the men and women building the cars. The latest sign that things aren't bad? Big profit-sharing checks.
According to The Detroit News, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler could end up paying over $800 million to 130,000 workers as part of a profit-sharing plan. According to The News, the economic impact of these profits in Michigan alone could exceed $400 million, besting the NFL's Super Bowl, MLB's All-Star Game and the NHL's Winter Classic for their economic impact.
This is the third straight year the Detroit Three have issued profit-sharing checks to UAW employees, and for many workers, the checks are as close as they'll get to a raise, due to the most recent contract between the union and the manufacturers. On average, employees at GM and Ford receive $1 for every $1 million in North American (not just the US) pre-tax profits. Chrysler, meanwhile, gets a similar deal, although the Auburn Hills-based company calculates profit sharing using 85 percent of the brand's global profits.
Ford, Renault, VW shareholder oppose French aid for PSA/Peugeot-Citro"en
Mon, 29 Oct 2012Pots and kettles, glass houses and stones - that's a little of what we appear to have going on in the European car market. New reports say that that three European automakers have registered their opposition to a loan deal that PSA/Peugeot-Citroën is working on with the French government. Peugeot's finance arm, Banque PSA Finance, is struggling with its debts and has been downgraded by Moody's to its lowest investment-grade classification, one step above junk. This makes it more expensive for a potential buyer to finance a car through Peugeot. The last thing Peugeot needs is more difficulty selling cars in the tough European market, and the situation will only worsen if the bank's credit worthiness takes another hit.
A deal being worked on would have the French government offer €7 billion ($9B U.S.) in bonds to guarantee the bank's loans, which would give the institution some breathing room to manage its debts and lower its interest rates. Outside of that, a group of banks would provide other, non-guaranteed loans to the bank to further help its position. In exchange for state help, though, the government wants seats on Peugeot's board for worker representatives and a government liaison, along with factory and worker guarantees. The Peugeot family would maintain control of the company.
So what we have is government assistance being provided to a car company's finance arm, akin to the way General Motors' GMAC (now Ally Financial) and Chrysler Financial got help in their time of need. What we also have is Ford and Renault, and Germany's State of Lower Saxony, the second-largest shareholder in Volkswagen, voicing their concern about the proposal, because they say it could create an unfair competitive advantage for Peugeot. Everyone in Europe's down market is fighting for every sale, and if Peugeot gets help to keep its auto loan costs down, it figures to help buyers choose Peugeot or Citroën.
