LOW RESERVE 1971 FORD BRONCO SPORT
The truck was painted and restored in 2004 and has been mostly garage kept since. The restoration was not a perfect or complete restoration, the body work is not perfect, and the paint is not perfect. It was designed to be a driver for nice days and for the beach. I drive the truck with historic tags. It starts every time and drivetrain is very strong. The bronco is actually a combination of two different trucks. The chassis is a 1975 and the body is a 1972. The 1975 chassis and drivertrain has only ~40,000 miles on it but the body required significant rust repair so it was swapped with a more solid 1972 body. The chassis was sanded and painted with POR15 and shows very minimal rust. The body has had several panels replaced. The door posts and jams are rusted and would need to be replaced to put original Bronco doors on it. The truck already has the door inserts, so if you require a top a soft top and soft doors would probably be best. The truck runs very strong. The brakes need to be adjusted and it would need taillight repair to make it a nice beach/ nice weather vehicle. I would consider it a good daily driver at the beach or during nice weather if the truck had its brakes tuned, the steering linkage stabilizer bushings replaced, and taillight/blinker repair; which, is work that should be pretty minor. MECHANICAL 302 V8 Motor, 4 Barrel Holley Carburetor, Street Avenger Intake Manifold, 3 Speed Manual Transmission, New wiring harness, clutch, and brake lines in 2004. Power Steering BODY The body is solid but the body work and paint are not perfect. Truck was painted in 2004. 33x13.5x15 super swampers with Mickey Thompson classic two aluminum wheels. 3" Suspension Lift Please see walk-around videos below.

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a lean, mean, Z/28-fighting machine [w/video]
Mon, 17 Nov 2014If there's one thing you can count on, it's that the renewed rivalry between the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro will never, ever cease. For every version of Ford's pony car, there's an equally potent Chevrolet. And so with the debut of the Camaro Z/28 earlier this year, Ford has responded with a track-focused 'Stang of its own, resurrecting the Shelby GT350 name.
It looks to be a fine piece of work, this Mustang, with power coming from a naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V8 that will produce "more than 500 horsepower" and "above 400" pound-feet of torque. That grunt runs to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission, and a Torsen limited-slip differential keeps everything in line.
But that's hardly the most impressive piece of the GT350 puzzle. Ford has increased the Mustang GT's chassis stiffness for duty here in the Shelby, and the coupe employs MagneRide damping which automatically adjusts based on road conditions and driver inputs. It's a first both for the Blue Oval and for the segment. And speaking of firsts, the GT350 uses a flat-plane crankshaft - something Ford has never included in a production V8 before.
2015 Ford Mustang already under recall, but just 53 units
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Ford has issued a small - but significant - recall for one of its spotlight cars: the 2015 Mustang.
The recall affects just 53 cars, with 50 in the United States and three in Canada. Ford said the passenger side safety belt buckle tension sensor may not have been calibrated properly by the supplier. This could lead to "misclassification" of the passenger seat occupant, and could cause the airbag to deploy improperly.
A Ford spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement, the automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries, and dealers will replace the buckle assembly at no cost to customers. The cars affected were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 18 to Oct. 2.
What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
