Relisting due to a non paying bidder. Please do not bid if you are not going to follow through. Very Rare Barn Find 1976 Ford Bronco. This Bronco was found in a barn several years ago and was gotten out and over $5000 spent on it to get it in driving condition. It has new tires to include the spare, a rebuilt transmission and new brakes all around and a new rear fuel tank and water pump. It has two gas tanks with the rear one being new. The exhaust system is new as well and the Bronco starts and runs great. It has however not been on the road for years and years. It does drive down the road great and the transmission shifts like new as it should. The interior is missing the headliner but the original door panels are there as well as the original seats and am radio.This hard to find Bronco is just waiting for a new owner. It has does have rust in the normal places. Specifically the drivers door post at the hinge area and also under the hood on both sides on top of the inner finders. There is body filler below the passenger door and the tailgate should be replaced. The floorpans seem to be in pretty good shape. The front grille has some dings in it and there is rust under the drivers door itself and a rust hole below the passengers door. This is a diamond in the rough and can be enjoyed like it is as a hunting vehicle or restored to be a show stopper. These old Broncos are getting harder and harder to find. It is rare to find one without the fenders being cut out. It has power steering and the brakes work well too. The top is in great shape and is worth 2500 alone. There does not appear to be any rust other than surface rust on the frame. It does need new rubber seals on the doors and windows. The drivers door hinge has been reworked and the door now shuts good. Everything is here. It just needs a new owner to either drive and enjoy it or take it to the next level. Don't miss out on this way cool Bronco. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call me 334-393-8448.

J Mays retiring from Ford design, succeeded by Moray Callum

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Ford's highly influential head of design, J Mays, has announced that he'll be retiring from his position after 33 years in the industry, 16 of which were at the Dearborn, MI-based company. Upon departure, he'll be succeeded as group vice president of design by Moray Callum. If that last name sounds familiar, yes, he's the brother of Jaguar's Ian Callum.
It's difficult to explain just how big of a role Mays had on not just Ford's design over the years, but on the entire industry. Before heading to Dearborn, Mays worked for Audi, BMW and then Volkswagen, where he was involved in concept cars that paved the way for design icons like the first-generation Audi TT and the Volkswagen New Beetle. As for his Ford resume, it's extensive.
Mays joined the company in 1997 as design director for Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and Mazda, as well as the Premier Automotive Group (Volvo, Land Rover, Jaguar and Aston Martin). He was heavily involved in the Ford Fusion, Focus, Fiesta, Taurus, F-150 and Mustang, while also contributing to concept cars like the Atlas, Evos, 427, Forty-Nine, Shelby GR-1, Lincoln MKZ and the MKC.

Best cars for snow and ice in 2023 and 2024

Tue, Jan 23 2024

What's the best car for snow? The real answer is "the one with winter tires." What do we mean by that? You could have the finest, most advanced all-wheel-drive system or four-wheel drive in the world, but if you're running all-seasons (the spork of tires), your fancy four-wheeler won't matter much. The odds are, any vehicle on the road running good winter tires will probably perform adequately in slippery, slushy and/or snowy road conditions. (Here's a more complete explanation of why winter tires are totally worth it). In other words, you don't really need any of the cars on this list. With a set of winter tires, countless others will do the job, and even these will be at their best with proper rubber. You can find a variety of winter tires for your car here at Tire Rack. Keep in mind that you will need a full set of four snow tires for safety and performance, no matter what you're driving. The days of your dad putting just two snows on the family truckster to get it moving in a straight line are long gone. Don't get us wrong, getting a car that performs well in snow and ice is still a worthy criteria for car buyers. According to the U.S. Transportation Department, 70% of Americans live in places that get snow and ice. And much of the country has been blasted with arctic air for much of the new year. So let's look at the cars. First, we're highlighting choices for a variety of buyers and price points. Second, we're not just considering snow; we're considering general wintery conditions people will experience driving to work or school. As such, these are all choices with advanced all-wheel-drive systems, usually with "torque-vectoring" systems that not only automatically shunt power front and back, but side to side between the rear axles. Most have extra ground clearance for getting through deep snow, and we prefer those vehicles with more responsive steering, throttles and transmissions that provide a greater sense of vehicle control in slippery conditions. Acura RDX Read our Acura RDX Review Acura's Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive system was one of the first to offer torque-vectoring, and besides often being touted for its ability to greatly enhanced dry-road handling, its benefits in the slick stuff can be profound. It's actually surprising that Acura hasn't leaned into this capability further by offering more rugged versions of its vehicles.
