You are bidding on a heavily modified 1974 Ford Bronco I purchased in Palm Springs, CA in 2003. When I bought the truck, it was bone stock with a tired 302, 3 speed on the column with a shot suspension. I installed a 2 inch body lift then added a Deaver 3.5 inch front and 2.5 inch rear suspension lift for that SoCal look. The extended heim-jointed front radius arms give fantastic articulation off road while the twin Rancho 9000 shocks at each corner keep things under control at speed.

The engine is a Smeding Performance build 392 stroker. Classic Truck magazine did a write-up on this motor in April 2007; Google it, this truck gets after it! A hydroboost power braking system get you slowed down quick. Feeding that engine is a Howell throttle body injection system. A 25-gal fuel tank gives a 300-mile range....give or take. Behind the 392 is an NV3550 5-speed transmission; an Atlas II twin stick transfer case sends power to the high pinion Dana 44 front and 9-inch rear end. Front and rear axles have 4.10 gears with ARB lockers. The full width axles from a 1978 F-150 are stronger than stock and give an extra 6-inches of wheel track adding to stability off road. Off road you are protected by a custom 6-point roll cage built just for this truck while 3/8 steel rock skis protect the rocker panels and provide a nice step-up into the cab.

At the front of the truck a pre-runner bumper holds a pair of Hella HID lights for long range illumination and two 5-inch KC running lights. The 9500-lb winch is wrapped with synthetic rope for safety. The truck was completely re-wired in 2007 ensuring that the electrical system was up to handling the power that the winch additional lights draw. The winch has remote controls installed on the dash. The rear bumper holds up to a 38-inch spare tire and high-lift jack on one side and a Jerry can and ice chest on the other. I modified the hard top to a safari-style top with a rag top sunroof installed. I recovered the front seats in reproduction original style seat covers. The rear seat is a fold and tumble unit from Wild Horses.

I'm sure I am forgetting a bunch of things because the list of modifications is longer than my arm. I have over $65,000 in receipts for work that I have had done on this truck. It's no show truck but I get lots of compliments on it wherever I go. This truck is built to go just about anywhere without any worries and is reliable enough to jump in and drive across the country. I hate to sell it I just don't use it enough to justify keeping it.

Saab-powered Ford is the most unlikely drift car we've seen

Tue, Jan 19 2016

Yes, you read that headline correctly. It's supposed to be a Saab-powered Ford, and not the other way around (although we fully support the notion of a Sonnet with a Flathead V8). Apparently, some lunatic in the UK took an ass-less 1953 Ford Anglia, paired it with a turbocharged Saab engine, and tuned the entire thing to go drifting. We like it. Called Urchfab, it's the subject of Carfection's (the blokes formerly known as XCar) latest video. Aside from looking like an extra from the British version of Mad Max, it has a problem with grip, in that there's just too much of it. This car is a fabber's dream, as we get to see its unnamed owner fashion new bits and bobs for the suspension before having an unfortunate encounter with a wall at Castle Combe. You can check out the full video up at the top of the page for a closer look at this monstrous Anglia. Related Video:

8 cars we're most looking forward to driving in 2015

Mon, Jan 5 2015

Now that 2014 is officially in the books, it's time to look ahead. And following our list of the cars we liked best last year, we're now setting our sights at the hot new metal that's coming our way in 2015. Some of these, we've already seen. And some are still set to debut during the 2015 auto show season. But these are the machines that keep us going – the things on the horizon that we're particularly stoked to drive, and drive hard. Jeep Renegade Not the Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Not the Ford Mustang GT350. Not the new John Cooper Works Mini. Nope, I'm looking forward to the adorable, trail-rated Jeep Renegade. And that's because I really, really, really like our long-term Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. I do not, however, care too much for the Cherokee's looks, and I really don't like its $38,059 price tag. The Renegade Trailhawk, meanwhile, promises much of the same rough-and-tumble character as its big brother, but at what we expect will be a more reasonable price (I'm personally wagering on the baby Jeep's off-road model starting at no more than $23,000). With a 2.4-liter four-cylinder and a nine-speed automatic, it should also be a bit easier to fill than the V6-powered Cherokee. Also, I can't help but love the way the Renegade looks. It's like someone took a Wrangler, squished it by 50 percent and then handed it off to George Clinton for a healthy dose of funk. The interior, with its bright, expressive trims and color schemes should also be a really nice place to spend some time. I'll be attending the Renegade's launch later this month, so I'll have a much shorter wait than my colleagues. Here's hoping the baby Jeep lives up to my expectations. Â– Brandon Turkus Associate Editor Mazda MX-5 Miata Here's an uncomfortable truth: I'd rather spend a day driving a properly sorted Mazda MX-5 Miata of any generation on a winding road than I would nearly any other vehicle, regardless of power, price or prestige. It's not just that I prize top-down driving and enjoy the Miata's small size because it gives me more road to play with. I just find there's more motoring joy to be had with high-fidelity handling and an uncorrupted car-to-driver communication loop than I do with face-distorting power or grip Â– let alone valet-stand gravitas. But perhaps most of all, I love Miatas because they can deliver that level of feedback and driver reward at modest speeds that won't put the locals on edge or endanger lives Â– you can use more of the car more of the time.
