'82 Bronco XLT Lariat. I Bought the truck in the desert of Eastern Washington, and brought it down to Denver, CO. It is a rare unmodified and rust free Bronco. Runs great, drives great, unstoppable off road and in the snow. I have meticulously taken care of the truck since I've owned it. It has been garaged out of the elements, kept clean, regularly serviced etc. I am the second owner, and have had the truck for about a year. Unfortunately, I have to move across the country and can't take it with me. Being an old truck, it has the occasional scratch and ding, which is to be expected from a truck of this age. Mechanically it is sound, all components work great, and are rust free.

The Good stuff:

351ci Windsor V8,

Brand new stainless steel exhaust with catalytic converter,

New front brakes (rotors, pads etc),

New Distributer and Ignition system,

New fluids (Diff, Trans, Oil),

33" Off road tires,

1" lift,

Cruise control, electric windows, rear tailgate window works great,

Included with truck are heavy duty tire chains for snow driving

As mentioned, the things that need work:

weatherstripping on front windows,

small dent front quarter panel,

sun damaged dash,

minor wear and tear on front seats,

minor headliner sag,

Inaccurate tachometer

Overall, this is a great truck that I am sad to sell. It will make a great daily driver and off road toy for the new owner. I have a ton more pictures of the truck that I am happy to send. Feel free to message me with questions.

eBay Find of the Day: Mk1 Ford GT40 with interesting history

Sat, 03 May 2014

You might expect a rare Ford GT40 to cross the block at some sort of prestigious auto auction from RM or Gooding, not show up on eBay for over $2 million. However, that's exactly what we have here. The seller claims the car is a late-build Mk1 GT40 from 1969, and it's currently owned by the director of the Hublot watch company in Switzerland.
According to the listing, GT40 #P1108 started life as Mk1 car that was built from factory spares in 1969 and was first sold in 1971. However, the auction is somewhat confusing. According to an image in its gallery, the vehicle was actually built from one of the seven spare Mk3 tubs when production of the iconic racers ended.
This GT40 was never built as a racecar - it lived on the streets its whole life. After assembly finished, it was sent to Germany and was eventually registered for the road. The first owner kept the car until 2005 and sold it with 7,300 miles on the odometer. The current owner bought it in 2012.

Is Tesla's next project an F-150 competitor? [w/poll]

Wed, 13 Nov 2013

What's the future look like for Tesla after it launches the Model X CUV and possibly a smaller, sub-Model S sedan? Would you believe a pickup truck? Yes, Tesla could be looking to use its EV know-how to take the fight to Ford and the F-150, based on comments made by company founder Elon Musk.
"If you're trying to replace the most gasoline miles driven, you have to look at what people are buying," Musk said during an impromptu Q&A session following a speech at Business Insider's Ignition conference. "[The F-150 is] the best selling car in America. If people are voting that's their car, then that's the car we have to deliver."
And while the idea of electric pickup may sound kind of absurd to some, Musk makes a very valid point - if Tesla's goal is to replace gas miles with electrical miles, it simply can't afford to ignore pickups.

Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts

Tue, 23 Jul 2013

Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).
