Bend, Oregon, United States

 Selling my 1971 Bronco.  Bought it a few years back and have been working on it slowly. I was initially told that the motor ran bad due to the fuel, and the transmission was fine, it was the shifting link that was out of adjustment.  Well, not quite the case.  There was no interior to boot.  So I was looking for a project and that's what I got.  SO....... Things that have been replaced, fixed, or added.........

New Crate Motor, 302 325 hp, new three speed manual transmission. New Clutch.  Cyntech Wiring harness.  Nothing worked in the dash, now everything but the cigarette lighter does.  New Windshield wiper motors though they are not synchronized.  New wiper fluid pump.  Interior is new..seats, carpet, insulation under carpet.  Locking console with Kenwood radio with original apple plug in.  Rampage top is new.  Rear speakers and side panels over wheel wells.  Seat belts are new.  Both fuel tank sending units were replaced.  All the shocks were replaced with Rancho.  New rear brakes, new master cylinder.  Front were ok.  U-joints in drive shafts replaced.  U-joints in front axle replaced.  Transfer case was resealed. Drum brakes, and manual steering fyi also.  So the body... Its not a rust bucket.  I have a ton more photos I can email.  Tailgate does have drilled holes from a different type of soft top I imagine.  Dent on tailgate as well.  Dented left front fender that also involved grill.  Body shop opinion was grill was fixable.  Rocker panels are ok.  Inner fender in engine compartment, driver side, does have rust.  Floor pans were replaced prior to me owning.  Rear floor is fine.  Hood does have a crack on edge, you can see it in the pics.  Buyer responsible for pick up or shipping.  Immediate payment of non-refundable $500 once auction won.   Speedo is off considerably, and I cannot confirm odometer.  Could be 122243.0

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.

1964 Ford GT40 prototype sells for $7M

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

Seven-figure Ferraris are not horribly rare. Heck, an eight-figure Ferrari isn't a rare occurrence. Between modern masterpieces like the Enzo and more classic offerings, cracking the million-dollar mark isn't a particularly tall order for the cars from Maranello. For a Ford, though, it's a big deal.
Now, this is not just some rare Mustang. This is a GT40, the car that Henry Ford II commissioned to whip Enzo Ferrari around a track in France. As far as the Le Mans-winning racers go, they don't get much rarer than this one. Sold at the Mecum Auctions in Houston, this is one of the prototypes, meaning it's one of the very first GT40s ever built. That makes its $7 million winning a bid, a record for on-air coverage of the auction, a pretty darn impressive figure.
You can watch the auction below, but first, take a look back at our original story on this rare Blue Oval.

1947 Chevy rat rod pickup leaves rubber and smoke in its wake

Thu, 08 May 2014

Cool comes in multiple flavors. One one hand, we have the sophisticated attraction of svelte design and the efficient use of power. Of course, on the other hand there is the allure of being the bad boy and going against the grain. That is part of the appeal of rat rods. Ideally, they are built without rules to an owner's specific tastes, and this widened and heavily modified 1947 Chevrolet pickup rod is a perfect example of that spirit.
Coming down the highway with a bent grille, rusted body and pouring smoke, it looks like the pickup from hell. It backs up the looks with some very impressive mechanicals too. Owner Troy Gubser says that the truck packs a Ford Power Stroke diesel with to 42 pounds of boost that runs out of 8-inch exhaust stacks at the back. He claims it managed 505 horsepower and 885 pound-feet of torque on the dyno. To harness all that power, this hot rod has a ZF five-speed manual gearbox with a ceramic clutch and short-throw shifter. Plus, it has cool little features like a doorbell on the tailgate that operates an air horn.
You might not expect a truck like this to actually be useful, but it has a fifth wheel coupling to haul an RV around drag races and car shows. The air suspension also probably keeps the ride fairly comfy when Gubser wants it to be. Scroll down to check out this beastly rat rod pickup and watch it engage in some diesel drag racing. Warning, there is some NSFW language.
