1975 Ford Bronco Sport on 2040-cars
Kinston, North Carolina, United States
1975 Ford Bronco Sport. The Bronco just underwent an extensive restoration and is in excellent
condition. The rust that existed was either cut out and patched or the entire sheet metal was removed and replaced (i.e. floors, wheel tubs, etc.). The underbody was sanded down and fully coated.
This is a low mileage example with only +/-75,000 ORIGINAL miles. There have been less than 100 miles added since
completion of the restoration.
The truck is sporting a 6 inch Wild Horses suspension lift and it has NO BODY LIFT, ALL SUSPENSION. It rides
surprisingly smooth with the coils for as big as it is... It sits on 37" tires that are basically brand new (they
still have the nipples ... not the little ones either, these nipples are straight out of national geographic)
The truck is powered by a strong running 302 motor that was rebuilt years ago. I added an additional accessory fan
to help cool the motor on those hot days and it has a nice dual exhaust so you can still hear this puppy purr over
the wind whistlin' in your ears
Power is put to the mud/trail/asphalt eating monster tires via a rebuilt C4 Automatic transmission through a
Cheetah SCS shifter. The truck has a new transfer case as well.
There are 2 fuel tanks (a primary and an auxiliary) as well as a switch for the driver to change tanks in case one
runs out. Both are run by independent electric fuel pumps, wired to the ignition. The rear tank was replaced during
the restoration and the auxiliary tank is a newer plastic unit, so no issues or long-term concerns for rust! It's
like double-fisting fun... When one side's out, just switch to the other and keep on keepin' on!!

1964 Ford GT40 prototype sells for $7M
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Seven-figure Ferraris are not horribly rare. Heck, an eight-figure Ferrari isn't a rare occurrence. Between modern masterpieces like the Enzo and more classic offerings, cracking the million-dollar mark isn't a particularly tall order for the cars from Maranello. For a Ford, though, it's a big deal.
Now, this is not just some rare Mustang. This is a GT40, the car that Henry Ford II commissioned to whip Enzo Ferrari around a track in France. As far as the Le Mans-winning racers go, they don't get much rarer than this one. Sold at the Mecum Auctions in Houston, this is one of the prototypes, meaning it's one of the very first GT40s ever built. That makes its $7 million winning a bid, a record for on-air coverage of the auction, a pretty darn impressive figure.
You can watch the auction below, but first, take a look back at our original story on this rare Blue Oval.
Watch Ken Block's scary Rally America crash from inside the cockpit
Wed, 19 Feb 2014Ken Block became famous for his series of Gymkhana videos, but he's a real racer in his own right. Block has competed many rounds in the FIA World Rally Championship and also rallied in the 2013 Rally America series. He nearly won that latter title last year - if not for a massive crash in the final event of the season.
Block and his co-driver Alex Gelsomino went into the Lake Superior Performance Rally needing a win to take the championship. However, missing a clump of dirt on the side of the road and one little word in the pace notes was all it took to catapult Block's Fiesta off the road and into a tumbling accident. Block says his initial reaction was anger because the crash came out of nowhere.
For 2014, Block is joining the FIA World Rallycross Championship for at least three rounds. He'll drive a Ford Fiesta for the Hoonigan Racing Division at the Norwegian, French and Turkish events of the 12-round championship. Former Formula One World Champion Jacques Villeneuve will also compete in the series.
Ford calling in 28k Edge crossovers over fuel line leak
Thu, 16 Jan 2014A problem with the fuel line on certain examples of the Ford Edge has prompted the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall. The issue revolves around the metal housing on the fuel line pulse damper, which was apparently improperly manufactured in the first place and is prone to crack in certain circumstances, leading to a fuel leak. And as we all know, a fuel leak is not a good thing.
The problem affects model year 2012 and 2013 Edge crossovers equipped with the 2.0-liter engine and manufactured between September 2, 2010 and April 25, 2013 - a total of 27,933 units. Although the Lincoln MKX is closely related to the Edge, since it isn't offered with the same engine (to which the problem is related), the recall does not include the premium-badged version. See the recall notice below for further details.
