Hockessin, Delaware, United States

1970 Ford Bronco
From the dry desert southwest, then barn stored for years, then inherited by family in California. Used originally for geology work and even has a gold pan along with some 70's era camping supplies. There are bumps and scratches seen with normal use. The original color was a light tan which turned out to be hard to the spot at a distance in the desert so the original owner had it painted bright yellow at the Ford dealership. 302 2bbl carb with manual choke 3pd on the column Has original black mat on floor. Lots of patina and maintains a vintage look.. Note the "ugly" stuff seen under the hood where fenders bolt is painted over undercoating that was painted over 20+ and is cracking. ( not rusted out blistered metal seen in a northeast truck) it has been in Delaware for less than a year and garaged. Again overall the body is very nice, not rusted away and basically untouched. Rare 4 Wheeler Camper in very nice condition ( this is one the nicest and most original I have been able to find). It has all the basics -2 beds, mini fridge, cook top, table, pots and pans, storage area, small propane and water tank, and heater. In short a cool vintage camper, perfect for a long weekend or car events.
Sold as is, where is due to vehicle age. Accept cash for in person pickup or bankwire. Buyer to pay for any shipping but I will assist in helping where possible. Of note with the camper in the down position it is within a few inches of the typical hardtop so shipping should be easier. I reserve the right to sell at any time and the ability to reject bids. Due to age, sold as is where is. Clear Delaware title, insured by Hagerty. This is the same family that it for sale a few weeks ago.

Michigan museum offers Model T driving classes
Sun, 29 Dec 2013Halfway between Detroit and Chicago, there is a car museum that gives visitors a unique level of interaction with antique cars. The Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI has a driver's training class to teach people of any age to learn how to drive a Ford Model T.
From the crank starter to the column-mounted throttle control, this driving school teaches people all there is to know about driving and operating a Model T. Each class lasts about two and a half hours and is only open to 18 students. There are ten sessions planned for 2014 - twice a day on May 3, June 22, July 22, August 23 and September 14. The class costs $95 (or $85 for members), and it also includes a tour of the museum's automobile collection.
In addition to this driving school, the museum has plenty of exhibits on the property, and it's open all but three days per year (Easter, Christmas and New Year's Day) with free admission for school field trips and active military. Be sure to check out the Gilmore Car Museum's website or visit them on Facebook for more info.
Bill Ford op-ed argues we can't just build and sell more of the same cars
Thu, 10 Jul 2014It's hardly a secret that the auto industry is undergoing an enormous, tectonic shift in the way it thinks, builds cars and does business. Between alternative forms of energy, a renewed focus on low curb weights and aerodynamic bodies, the advent of driverless and autonomous cars and the need to reduce the our impact on the environment, it's very likely that the car that's built 10 years down the line will be scarcely recognizable when parked next to the car from 10 years ago.
Few people are as able to explain the industry's many upcoming changes and challenges as clearly as William Clay Ford, Jr., better known as Bill Ford. The 57-year-old currently sits as the executive chairman of the company his great-grandfather, Henry Ford, founded over 110 years ago.
In an op-ed piece in The Wall Street Journal (subscription required), Ford explains that the role of automakers is, necessarily, going to change to suit the needs of the future world. That means changing the view of not just the automobile, but the automaker. As Ford explains it, automakers will "move from being just car and truck manufacturers to become personal-mobility companies."
2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid
Thu, 02 May 2013No Prius Killer
As much as we enthusiasts like to rail on the lowly Toyota Prius as the harbinger of death for all we hold dear, there's no denying the machine's absolute and interminable grip on the hybrid hatchback market in the United States. Toyota has so thoroughly sunk its teeth into the segment that you can clearly hear the automaker's incisors clacking against one another with the conclusion of each financial quarter. And there's little wonder why. Buyers can plop down less than $25,000 and have a runabout that can return up to an estimated 51 miles per gallon in the city, leaving every other entry on the market with precious little gristle to gnaw on.
Enter the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid. With its claimed 47 mpg combined, the funky little hatch from Europe already falls behind the 48 mpg city offered by the Prius, but that marginal sacrifice in fuel economy could be a small price to pay for buyers who want a credible alternative to the stalwart Toyota. Unfortunately, like the Fusion Hybrid, the C-Max Hybrid had trouble even approaching its Environmental Protection Agency estimates during our time with the car.
