This gorgeous Bright Blue Metallic 1971 Ford Bronco is truly a great find and stands heads and shoulders above most others on the market. This restored Bronco looks awesome inside and out and drives beautifully. There is no denying that these Early Bronco Classics are becoming highly sought after in the collector market and rightfully so. If you are looking for the ultimate sunny day cruiser, beach or mountain fun ride, or just a classic 4WD investment vehicle that will be right at home at any car show or cruise in, then this is the one!! I will do my best to provide enough large images, a video of it running and an honest description to help you decide if this Bronco belongs in your stable. Sit back and enjoy!! We acquired this awesome '71 Bronco from a gentleman in Vermont who had owned it for 10 years. It was strictly his spring/summer sunny day cruiser and was always stored in a climate controlled garage year round. He truly enjoyed driving it and his young daughters had grown attached to it. Unfortunately other priorities forced the decision to let it go which was a sad day for his daughters but a lucky one for the next owner of this sweet Bronco...Maybe you?? He had purchased the Bronco fully restored. It was previously owned by a guy who worked on Jeff Gordon's Race Team in North Carolina and he was told the car had spent most, if not all of its life in the North Carolina area. The Bronco was treated to a professional restoration about 11 years ago and was painted the same Blue Metallic as Jeff Gordon's Nascar race car. As you will see in the pics it is a gorgeous shade of blue and really pops. He was told that this Bronco had the original motor and that the mileage was believed to be correct. It currently reads slightly under 77,000 miles. When we received this truck it looked fantastic and drove awesome. The only things we have done have been to wet sand and buff the paint to a show quality shine and we also added a complete carpet kit and rear interior panel kit to give the interior an upgraded finished look. This Blue Beauty not only looks amazing but it also drives and handles fantastic and is ready to be driven and enjoyed! As you will see in the picture tour of the body below the body of this '71 is awesome. There is no rust or signs of rust anywhere along the Body and body panels are extremely straight. The only body panel that does not appear to be original is the hood which was changed to a nice higher end fiberglass hood many years ago. The hood fits great and we did add hood strut supports which make it very easy to open and close. The white fender flares provide a great accent to the glistening Blue Metallic and help accent the white interior as well. Bumpers, chrome and trim all look fantastic. Weatherstripping was all replaced recently also. A great Roll bar with bikini top finishes off the look and as you will see we also have a great hard top that is included as well. The Bronco was driven and enjoyed so there may be a minor rock chip or two but otherwise it is in amazing condition and will certainly draw a crowd at the shows, cruise-ins or wherever you drive it!!! Here is a walk around photo tour of this Classic Bronco: While we always prefer these Early Bronco's when they are topless, this particular truck really looks just as good either way in our opinion. The white hard top is in fantastic condition and really gives this Bronco a different look when it is on. The windows in the hard top are tinted to match the other windows and we will have the hard top installed and ready to go for the new owner. Here are a few pics with the hard top on: Accenting the glistening Blue Metallic exterior is an awesome Parchment white stock interior with some nice upgrades. It appears that the interior seat covers were professionally replaced when the Bronco was restored and they show almost no wear and look fantastic. When the Bronco arrived to us the interior was Rhino Lined in gray which looked pretty darn good but we always like the finished look with carpeting so we installed a brand new carpet kit. In addition we finished out the interior with new matching vinyl rear panels and added a locking center console unit and a nice set of floor mats. For those of you in the warmer climates you will be happy to hear that this Bronco was treated to a nice aftermarket air conditioning system that blows ice cold. A very nice am/fm/Cd stereo system was also neatly installed in the dash and rear speaker boxes sit neatly in the rear to provide some tunes for all to enjoy. The 3-speed Manual was upgraded to a Hurst Floor shifter and a James Duff 4wd shifter was also added. Door panels, dash and dash pad all look great. All of the gauges, lights and turn signals appear to be working correctly. The interior is as ready for the shows as the exterior...take a look inside: According to the previous owner he believed that this Bronco had just under 77,000 original miles. He was told that the previous owner had his mechanic team go through the motor at the time of restoration and take care of anything was needed but left the motor very stock aside from the addition of an Edelbrock performer intake and Holley 4bbl Carburetor. As you will see they also added a nice set of Bronco valve covers to dress up the engine a bit. The motor pulls strong and the 3-speed transmission shifts smoothly. This Bronco is an easy truck to handle thanks to the Power Steering and the brakes were completely gone through and stop this Bronco with ease. You have probably noticed this Bronco also has a great stance thanks to the James Duff Supsension lift components which lift this truck about 3 1/2 inches. 4-wheel drive engages properly and works as it should. Nice sounding dual exhausts provides a soft rumble from the chrome tips. This Bronco rides smoothly on a great set of BFG All Terrain TA tires with very low miles on them and a great looking set of 15" Aluminum wheels. The undercarriage is rock solid with no rust issues and has been nicely detailed also. This is a very smooth running Bronco that handles nicely on the local roads and at highway speeds. It is set up and ready to be driven and enjoyed!! There is a video of the Bronco starting up and running following the pics below.

FCA to pay buyers $1,700 to swap out of scandal-mired VWs
Tue, Oct 6 2015FCA is trying to gain some sales from arch-rival VW in the competitive European market by offering potential buyers in Italy up to $1,700 to swap into an FCA group car. While the promotion isn't specifically targeted at TDI owners affected by the emissions scandal, it is clearly intended to turn dissatisfaction with VW's defeat device cheat into additional sales, Bloomberg reports. The 500-1,500 euro incentive (roughly $560-1,700, depending on vehicle) stacks on top of any other rebates or deals applicable, and applies if a buyer brings in any of Volkswagen Group's cars – including Audi, Skoda, and SEAT, among (many) others. As Bloomberg notes, it's normal for automakers to offer "conquest" deals – giving a buyer cash for trading in a competitor's vehicle. Those deals aren't usually limited to one company's products, however; FCA's program looks specifically to take advantage of VW's legal and public relations nightmare. FCA isn't the only automaker trying this trick in Italy. Automotive News Europe also reported that Ford is offering approximately $840 in incentives across its entire range to owners of VW vehicles seeking to trade in for a Ford. No word of yet as to whether these incentives will spread beyond Italy or to other automakers.Related Video:
MotorWeek relives '80s coupes with Dodge Daytona, Ford Escort EXP
Thu, Aug 6 2015Get ready for a wave of nostalgia and the rapid realization of the huge progress in performance cars over the last 30 years. For its latest Retro Review, MotorWeek takes a look back at two, front-wheel drive coupes from the '80s that seem to have entirely vanished from the roads today. Both the 1986 Dodge Daytona CS and the 1986.5 Ford Escort EXP were considered affordable, sporty options in their day, but the passage of time hasn't been kind to either of their specs. The Daytona certainly looks the part of a performance machine with a body that's reminiscent of other '80s coupes, like the third-gen Chevrolet Camaro. However with 146 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque from a 2.2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, acceleration wasn't exactly a strong suit. MotorWeek complained about copious torque steer, as well. The optional CS suspension upgrade package on this Daytona was apparently a nod to Carroll Shelby who was working with Dodge at the time. If anything, the Escort EXP withstands the test of time even worse. As a two-seat coupe, you might have expected Ford's engineers to really turn up the performance to fit the sporty image that the exterior conveyed. That didn't really happen, and depending on which model buyers ordered, they got either 86 horsepower with a 1.9-liter engine or the "high-output" version of that mill with 108 hp.
2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Concentrated ST Formula Proves Just As Potent
I'm not the jealous type... usually. But I will fully admit to being somewhat of a Pouty Polly when I read executive editor Chris Paukert's report after driving the then-new 2013 Ford Focus ST through the impossibly pretty southern French Alps region last June. I feel like a broken record saying this yet again, but hot hatchbacks hold a special place in my heart. And while I'm always giddy to drive any sort of small, turbocharged three- or five-door at home in Detroit, my jealousy was indeed piqued after hearing Paukert tell about the challenging yet breathtaking roads he encountered while driving the flamin' yellow Focus. You know, the sort of roads that, from above, look like carelessly drizzled lines of icing on the frosted Alpen caps.
Several months later, I found myself piloting a Focus ST just west of metro Detroit, pitting it head-to-head against one of Autoblog's perennial favorite cars, the Volkswagen GTI. It was fantastic - enough so that I fully stand behind my statement that in terms of balls-out performance, the Focus ST cannot be beat as far as today's front-wheel-drive hatches are concerned.
