WORLDWIDE NO RESERVE AUCTION

1972 FORD EARLY BRONCO 4X4

                            

If you're looking for a great early Bronco this is the one to own.

 Why? For starters it has just three owners from new 

With a 302 under the hood and that unique hardtop it's a very high-quality SUV with a pedigree that's 100% ready to play in the dirt. Like its sibling the Mustang the early Bronco could be just about anything an owner wanted just by checking the right option boxes. This one has rear seating compartment and if you want to attract attention this is a great way to do it. 

Dark grey paint doesn't hurt either and It has an incredible shine.

 Will note that it sports a somewhat rare dual fuel tank option.

 The interior is in excellent condition with cloth bench seats is an unusual feature that's quite welcome here for safety.

 The black door panels are not original but look good and grey carpets tie everything together quite neatly and the paint on the door jambs and inner panels is every bit as nice as the exterior;

A manual transmission works with the 302's ample torque curve and  perfect for climbing through the rough stuff.

 

302 cubic inches' worth of V8 in a relatively lightweight package makes this Bronco extremely entertaining on the road and formidable in the dirt. The engine bay looks pretty authentic from the heavy-duty air cleaner to the unique angled master cylinder and power brake booster and it runs superbly.

 A massive radiator up front keeps it cool even when you're just creeping along in low gear and a recent carburetor means that it runs quite well.

Ford Blue paint and correct decals give it an authentic look and with a Pertronix ignition system it starts almost instantly. Underneath it shows well with lots of originality but excellent maintenance throughout. The manual transmission and transfer case are linked to a pair of Dana 44 axles with a modest lift kit to accommodate the oversized off-road tires on shiny aluminum wheels from a late-model Ford. With a great pedigree and extremely high-quality work this awesome little Bronco is one of the smarter moves you can make with these red-hot 4x4s.

Ford Explorer gets appearance pack for 2015

Sat, 14 Jun 2014

Remember when Ford launched the totally new Explorer in late 2010, and people were skeptical about how the now-crossover would fare, after ditching its traditional SUV roots? Well, we're several years in, and I think we can assuredly say that Ford made the right decision. Sales are better than ever (in fact, May was the current Explorer's best month yet), and the crossover is finding its way into the hands of a whole host of new Ford buyers.
A wholly refreshed Explorer is still forthcoming, but to keep its strong-selling crossover fresh, Ford is offering a host of improvements for the 2015 model year, including the attractive appearance package available on the XLT trim level, pictured above. Outside, the pack gets you goodies like 20-inch machined aluminum wheels, black bodyside cladding and roof rack rails. Contrasting Magnetic Metallic accents are found on the grille, mirror caps and liftgate appliqué, and there's an "Explorer" hood badge and body-colored door handles. Inside, there are new Miko suede inserts in the seats, and the package includes the automaker's Sync connectivity with MyFord Touch infotainment.
Elsewhere in the Explorer range, the Class III trailer tow pack is now standard on the Sport, base models get new 18-inch aluminum wheels, and there are three new colors on offer: Bronze Fire Metallic and Magnetic Metallic.

Man turns Ford Fiesta into a one-car band

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

The one-man band is a rather ridiculous idea, drawing up images of one person attempting to manipulate several instruments, at once, in a vain attempt at creating music. It's usually represented by silly scenes like this. Interestingly, the concept isn't much more successful when the "man" in "one-man band" is replaced with "car," as we see in this video.
It seems that someone rigged up and edited (699 times, we might add) a Ford Fiesta, a bucket, 12 PVC pipes and the natural sounds that a car makes to come up with a song. Now, we don't recognize the tune, so we've no idea if this is a cover or an original piece. And while it's hardly Beethoven, we have to admire the amount of effort the "conductor" went to in his attempt to turn a subcompact car into a musical instrument(s). Take a look (or listen) below for the entire video.

All 25 James Bond movies ranked only by their cars

Mon, Sep 13 2021

There is no shortage of lists ranking the best James Bond movies. Ditto lists about the best or worst James Bond cars. I know, I've written some of them. As such, why not combine the two ideas into one new list that ranks all 25 official James Bond movies based exclusively on their cars, or more accurately their car content. I would then pull from my 25 years of James Bond nerddom plus the excellent "Bond Cars: The Definitive History" and our interview with long-time Bond special effects supervisor Chris Corbould to provide tidbits and factoids about the cars and their roles in the movies. And yes(!), this list now includes "No Time to Die," which impresses by adding plenty of car content to the series. It's now available on Blu-ray and download. To determine the list, I considered the inherent coolness of the cars as well as their importance to Bond, film and car history. I considered their importance to the story as well as the quality/excitement of the chases and scenes they participated in. Finally, I tried my best to divorce the car content from my opinions about the movies in general. That my personal list of best James movies looks nothing like this shows I was at least partially successful.     25. 'Moonraker' There are virtually no cars in "Moonraker." None. Oh, there's a gondola on wheels that makes a pigeon do a double-take, but that's not the same thing as a car. Neither is a golf cart. Or an ambulance. Or a space shuttle.   24. 'From Russia With Love' The literary James Bond mostly drove an ancient Bentley, and "From Russia with Love" is the only film in which it appears. It stays parked and the coolest thing that happens (by 1962 standards) is 007 answers its car phone. Thereafter, we get some old cars (even by 1962 standards) driving around Istanbul and a yellow truck. So yeah. Classic Bond film, a must-watch, just not for its car content.   23. 'Dr. No' History records that the first "Bond car" is the Sunbeam Alpine in "Dr. No." The car itself was literally borrowed from a Miss Jennifer Jackson of 53 Lady Musgrave Road in Jamaica for 10 pounds per day for two days during filming. Also, the stunt where it drove under an excavator blocking the road was entirely conceived because the filmmakers showed up to the road they intended to film on and discovered an excavator blocking the thing. Sadly, those are really the only two things interesting about the Alpine, which is a pretty small and dainty thing by Bond car standards.
