 Hi
after a full frame-up restauration (incl. new custom made frame!) I?m going to sell this Ford Bronco Sport - I?m starting a new project :-)

This Bronco is actually better than new. 90% of all parts have been replaced by new original Ford Bronco parts!

All critical metal sheets have been proffesional welded. Truck is completely new painted - original "Calypso Coral". V8 350 engine is overhauled and tuned - VERY strong! Same with gearbox and transfer case. Also new: all drive shafts, exhaust, steering colum/wheel, brake system, differentals (limited slip). New BF Goodrich All Terrain Tires.

Underbody (and inside-floor) is profesionally industrial rhino-coated (see web: nashornhaut.de) and lasts forever. Lots of parts are powder-coated as well.
Full documentation (500 pictures; all receipts etc.).

This Early Bronco has a German oldtimer registration (T?V; H-Kennzeichen), which is equivalent with the US "historical car license". Not much to convince the authorities, that this vehicle is perfect (and save!) :-)
So many things to mention - please ask if you have further questions. I can send more pics if needed.

Personal comment: Please understand, that I spend more than 35k Euro in this car to get it where it is today. I understand that I will never get paid "my perfectionism" - but don?t come up with ridiculous offers.
This car is an investment in the future (there will be not more of such cars in the future - a threatened species!)

For shipping abroad I can help with some good, reasonable companies, that I always use to buy/ship cars from the US. Very easy and convenient door to door delivery. For example USA --> Germany door-to-door is about 2000 USD
Just ask your local shipping company (I used SATS; Interglobal etc.) Easy to find in the internet.

Have fun

Ford Tourneo ready for duty in Connect, Courier and Custom flavors [w/videos]

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

Ford was relatively quiet at the Geneva Motor Show, but it did take the opportunity to roll out its new family of Tourneo vans: the Courier, Connect, Grand Connect and Custom. As the passenger version of the Transit cargo vans, the new range of Tourneo models vary from the B-segment Courier up to the fullsize Custom. The Connect and Grand Connect are based on the redesigned 2014 Ford Transit Connect.
With an overall length just three inches longer than the Fiesta hatchback, the Tourneo Courier seats four to five passengers, and it offers a choice of three engines: the 1.0-liter EcoBoost or two small diesels. Like the 2014 Transit Connect was saw in Paris last year, the Tourneo Connect comes in a five-seat configuration while the Grand Connect can seat seven. Finally, the Tourneo Custom seats up to nine passengers, and it is available in two lengths up to 210 inches long putting it just six inches shorter than a standard-length E-Series van and about a foot longer than the Explorer.

Forza Motorsport 6's new drivable Hot Wheels cars are the best

Tue, May 3 2016

Each month, Turn 10 Studios releases a new car pack for the latest installment of its Forza Motorsport video game. Sometimes that means less-than-exciting stuff coming to our Xbox Ones – BMW X6M, bleh – but this time our inner seven-year-old is beyond ecstatic. Two of the seven cars are based on actual Hot Wheels models. And. They're. Awesome. First we have the 2011 Hot Wheels Bone Shaker. Yes, there are flames on the side. And yes, there's a giant skull where the grille should be. This one came from the imagination of "Mr. Hot Wheels" Larry Wood, whose design was so popular it inspired an actual real-world creation. Like all good things in this world, it's powered by a small-block Chevy V8. Oh, and it has no roof. This will be a popular one among gamers. The other digitized Hot Wheels creation is a 2005 Ford Mustang. A modest vehicle, sure, but the toy designers have festooned this pony car with a wild paint scheme and the body mods to emphasize it. Originally developed to celebrate the 'Stang's 50th birthday, this Hot Wheels car trades Americana for wild Japanese style. There's just one functioning life-size version of this car in existence as well, but if you look hard, you might be able to find one of the 1:64 scale models that inspired it. Other highlights from this month's car pack include the latest Ford Focus RS – finally time to replace that NASCAR-V8-powered, all-wheel-drive 2009 Focus RS – the 2015 McLaren P1 GTR, the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS, the aforementioned X6M, and Alain Prost's 1990 Ferrari 641 F1 car. The Hot Wheels Car Pack is available for download today.

Watch these videos of an NHRA racer's bodywork blowing off into a crowd

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

Just a few months ago, fan safety at racetracks was a hot topic following the last-lap NASCAR Nationwide Series crash at Daytona that sent large pieces of racecars into the grandstands injuring 33 fans. Now, a freak incident at a National Hot Rod Association event resulted in a drag racer's bodywork flying into the crowd at the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals in Charlotte over the weekend. The carbon-fiber body of Robert Hight's Ford Mustang funny car blew off toward the end of a run when his engine exploded, but fortunately, the two fans evaluated after the incident were later released without serious injury.
As you can see in the image above, the body flew high into the air before landing on a walkway in front of the grandstands, a bit of happenstance that likely gave most fans enough time and space to move out of the way. Scroll down to watch a couple of videos showing what happened, including one from a fan's perspective that also reveals what appears to be part of the body's metal bracing landing dangerously close to the crowd.
