This is a 1971 Ford Bronco Sport that has been garage kept and is great shape with a dry history living in Las Vegas Nevada for 43 years. I am the 3rd owner and have been continuing the restoration process here and there since I have owned it. I wanted to keep the original look of this Bronco so I upgraded some things that were better than stock. It now has two new fuel tanks w/ sending units, both tank straps, fuel filler hose, fuel pump, plugs, wiring, oil pressure sender, Silicone heater hose kit, coolant recovery bottle w/ stainless holder Edelbrock air cleaner w/ chrome covers, battery, pigtail voltage regulator, alternator harness, battery terminals, Warn cables, battery tray w/ holder, Amsoil high performance 10/40 synthetic motor oil w/Amsoil 25,000 mile oil filter, fuel lines with a new tuned Holley 570 avenger 4 barrel carb. Ethanol dissolves metal and creates a bunch of issues when is sits for a period of time.

The next part that I wanted to tackle was the Clutch and Drive Train which included new 11 inch Luk clutch, pressure plate, bolt kit, new fly wheel, roller pilot bearing, stainless (adjustable) push rod, clutch rod (metal) bushings that do not bind, new complete rear drive shaft, new transfer case yolk, new 304 stainless twin stick transfer case shifters for T type model 20 transfer case (works better than stock), new transfer case seals, 2 new turbo mufflers, fresh gear oil replacement, 8 new JBG shocks w/red shock boots, BDS steering stabilizer, new front brakes, front hubs repacked, 5 stock rims stripped and then powder coated, 4 like new hub caps, new chrome lugs and 4 new Bridgestone 30x9.50x15 A/T Duelers less 1000 miles and front end alignment about 200 miles ago

Now I will get into some of the cosmetics that were done along the way which include newly recovered front and rear seat w/ new foam buns for the 2 front seats, rebuilt Unity spot light (new hand assembly), 6 new LED bulbs in dash instruments, new LED tag bulb, new dash brake light, new front seat belts (Air craft quality), new grill badges, stainless license plate frame, (kept original), 2 Billet aluminum fuel caps, (kept originals), stainless tailgate handle assembly w/ gaskets, (kept original), stainless jack strap, (kept original), stainless hood safety latch w/bolts, front and rear show quality stock bumpers w/stainless bumper bolts, park and tail light gaskets, used heater intake hose, powder coated tire carrier & tire mount, stainless carrier plate w/wingnut & latch guard, stainless carrier latch guard loop, poly turn signal bases, new passenger side mirror w/ gaskets, hood adjusting bumpers.

180,000 new vehicles are sitting, derailed by lack of transport trains

Wed, 21 May 2014

If you're planning on buying a new car in the next month or so, you might want to pick from what's on the lot, because there could be a long wait for new vehicles from the factory. Locomotives continue to be in short supply in North America, and that's causing major delays for automakers trying to move assembled cars.
According to The Detroit News, there are about 180,000 new vehicles waiting to be transported by rail in North America at the moment. In a normal year, it would be about 69,000. The complications have been industry-wide. Toyota, General Motors, Honda and Ford all reported experiencing some delays, and Chrysler recently had hundreds of minivans sitting on the Detroit waterfront waiting to be shipped out.
The problem is twofold for automakers. First, the fracking boom in the Bakken oil field in the Plains and Canada is monopolizing many locomotives. Second, the long, harsh winter is still causing major delays in freight train travel. The bad weather forced trains to slow down and carry less weight, which caused a backup of goods to transport. The auto companies resorted to moving some vehicles by truck, which was a less efficient but necessary option.

George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]

Sun, 20 Jan 2013

Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.
