This is a 1977 Bronco with Automatic C4 transmission, Power steering, Power disk brakes and a strong 302 V8.

Pros- Rust free CA car, driven to NYC from Bay Area, in December. Garage kept for its few short months in NYC.

The Bronco ran great on the drive, did not leak or burn any oil.

New Holley 350 2 barrel carb.

New 12 Gallon Auxiliary tank with electric switching valve. (Has never had gas in it).

New Fold and Tumble rear seat.

23 Gallon main tank.

3 inch Wild Horses lift kit.

33 Inch Yokohama tires with plenty of life.

Wiper motor lowering bracket.

4X4 works great, hubs lock and unlock with ease, drove great in the storms over the last winter.

79,000 miles on odometer. I dont know most of the history of this truck, but the condition is good enough that I think it is accurate.

Besttop softop in decent condition.

Located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn 11211.

This truck drives like a car. Automatic transmission, power steering and disk brakes have almost made me forget how brutal the earlier models were, with the 3 speed on the column and no power steering. A completely different animal.

My 100 pound wife has no problem jumping in it and driving it all over NYC. (Yes, for those of you who have seen her driving it around Brooklyn, thats her, and no. She is not part of the sale. Im doing my best to keep that one :-)

Cons-

Does not come with the Hardtop. ( I actually think thats a good thing. Finding a place to put the top when you take it off has never been easy!)

Hazard lights and front driver's turn signal are not functional. Hazards just stay solid and turn signal socket is broken. I havent had time to deal with it.

Slight leak on Transfer case; you can see a light coating of oil on the bottom of the case.

No A/C.

No stereo.

For clarity- when I say no rust I mean there is no body rot anywhere, I see a light coating of rust on the leaf springs and the u joint knuckle, and a few other places on the underside. I would cover it with undercoating if I were keeping the truck, but I knew Id be selling it, and I didnt want to hide anything from the next owner.

Paint - a good ten footer. Looks great until about 10 feet away, then you see things like cracks and bubbles in areas on the hood scoop. Overall it looks good, but it is by no means perfect.

Junkyard Gem: 1991 Mercury Capri

Mon, Sep 19 2016

Ford has gotten a lot of use out of the Capri name in the United States. First, there was the Lincoln Capri in the 1950s, followed by the Ford Capri Mk1 (which was sold by Mercury dealers in the USA but never actually badged as a Mercury). Then came the 1979-1986 Mercury Capri, built on the very successful Fox Platform and essentially a clone of the Mustang. Finally, in 1991, the Australian Ford Capri came to the United States. Here is an example of this rare car that I spotted in a Northern California self-service yard not long ago. Mechanically speaking, the 1991-1994 Capri was a Mazda 323 under the skin, complete with a member of the same B-series engine family that went into such cars as the Miata and Ford Escort. So, for a few years in the early 1990s, car shoppers who wanted a sporty Mazda convertible could choose between a Miata and a Capri. The Capri had front-wheel-drive, but could be had with factory turbocharging. These cars were reliable and fun, but had a tough time competing with the Miata in the showroom battles. You'll see the occasional example now and then, but most of the 1991-1994 Capris have met the same fate that awaits this one. Related Video:

New York Mets outfielder turns spring training into his personal car show

Wed, Feb 24 2016

New York Mets outfielder Yoenis Cespedes is known for his wide range of talents. He can hit for power, average, has good speed, and is solid in the field. His car collection is equally versatile and diverse, and it's been on display this week at spring training. Every day has brought a different car, and it has his teammates and the media atwitter. Cespedes rolled up Wednesday to the Mets facility in Port St. Lucie in a Lamborghini Aventador. It's black with blue trim. Anthony DiComo with MLB.com tweeted this: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. ESPN's Darren Rovell tweeted the Lambo has a custom exhaust that cost $80,000 and shoots out flames. Of course, that's already old news. His Alfa Romeo showed up today, too. Apparently Mets infielder Wilmer Flores has been driving it. That's an ultra-rare 8C Competizione, brought to you by Robert Brender of SNY.TV. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The Italian delights are stunning, but his Tuesday arrival was arguably the craziest: a Polaris Slingshot. DiComo captured this. It's customized with gaudy wire wheels, red accents, and Cespedes' No. 52 on the hood. Subtle. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Only in this fleet would Monday's ride appear pedestrian. It was 'only' an F-250. It was raised on huge wheels, had a custom grille, and towered over that Maserati behind it. Jon Santucci of Scripps newspapers observed it. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. At this rate, we should probably skip Geneva and get credentialed for Mets spring training. Cespedes signed a three-year $75-million contract with the Mets in the off-season. He's also played for the Oakland Athletics, Boston Red Sox, and Detroit Tigers. Related Video: Image Credit: Getty Images Celebrities Design/Style Ford Lamborghini Performance baseball
