www Up for auction we have a 1979 FORD BRONCO RANGER truck for sale. Please read entire AD, this is actually for two Broncos! Overall the truck is very nice for its age and runs and drives well. The truck is equipped with the 351M engine and automatic transmission with four wheel drive. The odometer shows 84,971 miles, the title shows exemt, so Im not sure if its true miles or not. The interior is good, the door and dash have brown paint on them, they probably should be green to look right.The truck was originaly orange,in color. The body does have some rust areas, the worst is in the Pass. side lower door jamb area, as shown in the pictures. Also some bubbling over the Pass. side rear wheel,over the pass. side door window, and a little in the drivers door jamb. The frame, mounts and floor all look pretty good. Mechanically, the only thing,other than a tune up, carb. cleaning, would be that it does not want to engage in the 4x4 LO position, it doesnt want to snap in and engage,it was that way when I got it, and I didnt get to go further with it. The tires have a lot of tread, but are aggressive, and I personally wouldnt want them on it for normal driving. The rear tailgate was replaced, and I havent seen any rust on it,but the window currently doesnt go down on it. The winning bidder gets a 1979 Bronco 4 speed parts truck with,if desired,if not wanted,I can deduct $500.00 from the winning bid price. If there is anything major wrong with the transfer case,those parts would be on that truck. I have driven the truck on my property, but not on the road for long periods, the truck seems good. The truck sells AS-IS, delivery possible, contact seller for details, Buyer will need to meet with seller to transfer title ownership papers at pickup. I have driven the truck about 10 miles today,it drives OK, the gas guage doesnt work, and the steering box is worn,so the steering isnt tight, but I have a better one to go on the vehicle.

Ford trademarking 'Mach 1,' possibly for Mustang
Thu, 24 Oct 2013A legendary name might be accompanying the redesigned, 2015 Mustang when it finally makes its world debut - Mach 1. Stumbled upon by the team at Ford Authority, the Mach 1 title was found in a trademark filing with the US Patent and Trademark Office, and would revive a name last used on the fourth-generation, 2003 Mustang.
While the the 2003 vintage was well and good, the Mach 1 is really remembered for a three-year run from 1969 to 1971 - it's best to just forget the emissions-choked 1972 to 1978 Mach 1s - when power output ranged from a modest 250 horsepower with the two-barrel, 351-cubic-inch Windsor V8 to "375 hp" (actual output was rumored to be well north of 400 horsepower) with the righteous, 429-cubic-inch Super Cobra Jet V8.
What does the title hold for the sixth-generation Mustang? It's tough to say. The fanatics at Ford Authority seem to think Mach 1 could take the place of the Shelby GT500 at the top of the Mustang hierarchy, which sounds like a valid argument. At the same time, we could see the SVT Cobra moniker returning for the flagship model, and the Mach 1 doing battle with the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 (unless the Boss 302 were to return). Confounding things is the historical precedent - the Mach 1 was responsible for the death of the Mustang GT in 1969, so it might make sense as a volume performance model.
Fiat boss Elkann being mentored by... Bill Ford?
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Fiat Chairman John Elkann has been turning to an unusual source for advice on the car business. While speaking during an interview with The Detroit News, Elkann said he often asks Bill Ford Jr. for advice on how to proceed with the turnaround at Chrysler. "It's great to have the opportunity to share this with someone like Bill, who has experienced many things and gone through many things ... especially linked to Detroit." Elkann said.
As the Agnelli family heir, Elkann has inherited a long and fruitful friendship with the Ford family. While Giovanni Agnelli built his first Fiat four years before Henry Ford created his first vehicle, it was Ford that showed Agnelli the benefits of mass production and helped pave the way for what would become the Fiat empire.
Giovanni's grandson, Gianni, helped mentor Bill Ford when he was elected chairman of Ford Motor Company. Now, Ford is returning the favor by helping Elkann navigate the automotive industry's tumultuous waters.
Ford bringing 10 custom Transit Connects to SEMA
Tue, 29 Oct 2013With 57 vehicles planned for its SEMA display, it comes as little surprise that Ford has plenty of teasers for its show cars. After showing us what it has in store for the Mustang, Fiesta and Focus ST, now we're getting a look at some of the custom creations based on the redesigned 2014 Transit Connect van.
These nine Transit Connects are decked out to various degrees of customization, but our favorite might be the chopped and lowered Transit Connect from Mob Steel (shown above), which has a similar slammed stance that we see on some custom VW Buses. On the opposite extreme, LGE & CTS Motorsports has jacked up a Transit Connect to make a Cross Country cruiser that we wouldn't mind taking on a road trip.
There are seven other teasers from various companies, and you can check them all out in the gallery above or in the press release below. Ford is also promising a tenth Transit Connect for SEMA, so stay tuned for that as well.
