Beautiful 87 Ford Bronco 4x4 on 2040-cars
Valdosta, Georgia, United States
I have up for auction a beautiful 1987 Ford Bronco. I purchased it from San Antonio Texas where it had spend all its life. It is truly a rust free Bronco. It clearly need a paint job because it was faded badly and the old clear coat was peeling. I sanded the old stuff off and started with SPI epoxy primer which sets up an unbelievable foundation. The Bronco had one spot that had body filler, and I am not sure why because it was no bigger than a dollar bill. I fixed the misc nicks and dings and painted it two tone Silver and Blue. The interior is very basic but in excellent shape for a 1987. The rubber mat in the back is original and has quite a bit of wear and some cuts, but it is very serviceable. The guy I purchased it from had just spent over $1200 having it tuned up and the power rear window repaired. He didn't fib about the condition, but had a unique method of disclosing it's flaws. When he stated " the gas gauge works, but only when it wants too" that translates into... it doesn't work. At least in the over 1000 miles I have put on it the gauge hasn't "wanted" to work yet. He said the radio works, but it will need speakers. The radio doesn't work. He said it will soon need a muffler. It does, and I will have one installed. The power steering pump, or the hose on has a small leak in it.
The 4 wheel drive and AC works. It is a manual transmission and 302 V8. The transmission in 1987 was a real truck transmission, not a car transmission like the put in them in later years. My hobby is lite bodywork and painting older vehicles up, I do one to two a year, and this is by far the best running vehicle I have ever had to work on. As I said I have put over 1000 miles on it and it is truly amazing. Have a look at the pictures, and email me if you have any questions. Shipping costs are buyers responsibility. I will assist with loading. I encourage local inspections prior to bidding. If the winning bidder upon local inspection has any concerns whatsoever I will gladly refund any deposit and you won't have to go thru with the purchase. |

280-bhp Elemental RP1 revealed, now with bike-engine option
Thu, Jun 26 2014The Elemental RP1 might be Britain's next big boutique roadster success story. Designed by a team with Formula One experience, it aims to mix road car drivability with racecar performance in a single, adaptable package weighing less than 1,000 pounds. It was first previewed a few weeks ago, but the secrecy has finally disappeared due to its upcoming debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. The backbone of the RP1 is a carbon fiber and aluminum tub onto which the front and rear subframes bolt on. Inside, it has an F1-like, feet-up driving position that allows for additional underfloor aerodynamic aids to improve downforce. Despite its hardcore nature, Elemental says that it wants the car to be very user friendly. Buyers should be able to drive the RP1 to the track, adjust it with some wrenches, go racing and drive it home. The company even claims the storage areas to either side of the engine offer enough room for a helmet and other racing gear. Hopefully, buyers don't crash, though, otherwise they might be stuck. Elemental is adding two more engine options for the RP1, as well. In addition to the previously announced tuned Ford 2.0-liter EcoBoost with 280 horsepower, buyers can also choose a upgraded version of Ford's three-cylinder 1.0-liter EcoBoost or a model aimed at pure track use with a 999cc Honda Fireblade motorcycle engine. The 2.0-liter uses a six-speed sequential manual gearbox, and a limited-slip differential and alternate gear sets are available as additional options. The first RP1s built will be pure racers for the 2015 season, and the first road cars will follow in the early summer of next year. Pricing isn't set yet, but scroll down for more details and full specs of Britain's latest feather light car for road and track. Introducing the Elemental Rp1 Press Release: 23/6/2014 British sports car manufacturer, Elemental Motor Company Limited, today released further details of their new and innovative, road legal track car, the Rp1. The Rp1 is an open top, road legal, mid engined sports car that incorporates state of the art road and race car technologies. Designed, Engineered and Built by a team with decades of experience in the Formula One and Supercar industries, it brings the concept of a road legal track car firmly into the 21st Century. The Rp1 will be revealed to the public for the first time, this weekend, at the 2014 Goodwood Festival of Speed, where it will located in the Moving Motor Show tent "First Glance" display.
Ford cleans up painting process with cameras
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Knowing how the bacon gets made rarely entices us and, in the same vein, the same usually goes for knowing about how new cars get painted. But in both instances, however, quality - or a lack thereof - is instantly obvious. In terms of the latter, Ford is showing off its new paint quality process with 3D Dirt Detection Technology to find imperfections in vehicle paint more easily and more quickly.
This process - being performed on the F-150 SVT Raptor above - uses 16 computer-controlled cameras to create a three-dimensional model (inset) of the vehicle to detect flaws in the paint including dirt particles, which can then be buffed out manually. Ford says this new technology cuts down on time spent looking for paint flaws and gives workers more time to correct those that are discovered.
Currently, Ford only uses its 3D Dirt Detection Technology system at three factories (the Dearborn, MI facility, along with those in Louisville, Kentucky and Valencia, Spain), but it will soon spread to five more plants in North America. Ford has released a video and press release for this innovative and unexpectedly interesting process, both of which are posted below.
