I have up for sale a 1976 Bronco. The Bronco has 52xxx miles and spent most of its life in California until 2003 when it came to Pennsylvania. This actual Bronco was used in the movie "Warrior" that was filmed in Pittsburgh! The Bronco has a 302 v8 with a 4 speed conversion with the NP 235 transmission and it is 4 wheel drive. It also has power steering and power disc brakes. Mechanically the Bronco is stock with the exception of a set of headers but it still runs thru the stock catylatic converter and single exhaust and it still has the original air pump hooked up and running. I have replaced the rear fuel tank(removed the front one), replaced master cylinder, front lock out hubs, steering stabilizer, rear wheel bearings, had the carb professionally rebuilt, tuned up the engine, newer muffler and tail pipe, replaced the rotors, drums, brakes and hardware on both the front and rear brakes. The wheels have less than 500 miles on them and the tires are in pretty good condition. The motor also has the GM HEI conversion on the ignition system. The Bronco also has been rewired. The truck runs and drives good. It always starts right up with no smoke. The body on the truck is rough. I have listed photos showing some of the bad. The floors are shown and they are in pretty good shape as are the front door post also. The passenger side quarter and drivers side front fender and grill are in bad condition and there is other rust in different spots also. I do have a brand new quarter, rear door post, and taillight corner for the passenger side. I also have a used grill and rear chrome bumper that are in good condition and are included. This Bronco mechanically is in good condition and is ready to drive and with the parts I have collected for the body and a few more this could be a really nice Bronco. This Bronco is an has excellent potential but is far from a show truck so remember this while bidding. These are also getting very hard to find in the northeast. Please ask any questions before bdding. Good luck and Thanks!!!

2015 Ford Mustang Convertible shown on Twitter [UPDATE w/video]
Thu, 05 Dec 2013It hasn't yet been 12 hours since the hotly anticipated 2015 Ford Mustang has been let out into public view. After a series of evocative leaks over the course of the last days, we brought you a full deep dive of the sixth-generation pony car at the dawning of today. And yet, here we are rushing to bring you news of a new Mustang variant, already.
Be it part of a plan to keep the Mustang fervor at full boil, or a misunderstood email somewhere in the chain of command, Ford UK has unceremoniously tweeted a picture of the 2015 Ford Mustang Convertible. For a newly global Mustang, getting our first look at the droptop from the convertible-crazy British does make some amount of sense.
As for details, well, you're looking at them. Brandon Turkus reported yesterday that the Mustang 'vert would make use of a fully electric convertible mechanism, and that it would be of fabric construction rather than some kind of retractable hardtop. We see here that the fabric part is clearly true, and it does look as though Ford may still be employing the same kind of manually attached tonneau cover that exists right now. Of course, our view from this angle isn't great, and the particulars are still up in the air.
Expert: 54.5 mpg CAFE standard can be reached without many plug-ins
Sat, Jan 18 2014Johnson Controls executive Brian Kesseler isn't likely to get any holiday presents this year from Nissan chief Carlos Ghosn or Tesla Motors head Elon Musk, but lots of other folks might be happy with what he has to say about automakers' efforts to reach stricter fleetwide fuel-economy standards. Speaking at the Automotive News World Congress, Kesseler said automakers wouldn't need to sell an extensive number of plug-in vehicles in order to meet the 54.5 mile per gallon Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standard the US government set in 2012 for 2025 model-year vehicles. In fact, he said, components such as stop-start engine technology, turbochargers and direct injection may actually do the trick. Already, things like smaller engine sizes and lighter cars are already playing major roles in spurring fuel-efficiency gains. Of course, Johnson Controls sells batteries specially built for stop-start systems, so Kesseler does have a bit of skin in this game. The 54.5-mpg CAFE standard equates to about a 40-mpg "real world" fuel-efficiency level. To put that into perspective, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said in a report late last year that model-year 2013 average fuel economy was an even 24 mpg. That was up from 23.6 mpg for the 2012 model year and 22.4 mpg for 2011.

Ford F-150 SVT Raptor sales jumping to new heights
Thu, 12 Sep 2013Ford can't seem to build F-150 SVT Raptors fast enough. The off-road-ready trucks have been one of the Blue Oval's most reliable sellers, with record sales in eight of the last 10 months and a 14-percent jump in 2013. That's impressive enough, considering that the least expensive Raptor starts at $44,000. Factor in the modded F-150's fuel economy (it's rated at 11 miles per gallon in the city and 16 on the highway) and a national average gas price, as of this writing, of $3.55 per gallon, and its success is as unlikely as Ford's home team, the Detroit Lions, winning the Super Bowl this year (sorry, Lions fans, we're just quoting the experts in Vegas...).
Yet for some reason, Raptors spend an average of just 15 days on dealer lots before being snapped up, which is a quarter of the 60-day industry average. According to Ford's truck group marketing manager, Doug Scott, it's capability that keeps the Raptor selling strong. "What's helping drive Raptor sales is that Raptor delivers unmatched off-road performance to our customers. Raptor is also proof of our commitment to offer a truck for every customer and continuously improving them to meet our customers' evolving needs."
To address the strong demand for Raptors, Ford will bump production from three trucks per hour to five. Not much, we agree. But building an extra 48 trucks per day, at most, seems like a prudent way of addressing demand without oversaturating what is ultimately a niche market. Check out the press release below for more.
