EXTREMELY rare Bronco U13 ROADSTER. Only 5000 ever built with approximately 100 even registered with the Bronco Roadster Registry*. This all original numbers-matching Roadster has an early build date, September,1965. The original color was springtime yellow. This Roadster was delivered to a Charlotte, NC Ford dealer and has spent almost its entire life in central North Carolina. It's an in-line 6 cylinder with 62000 ORIGINAL miles and a 3 speed column shift transmission. It came with dealer options such as a heater, windshield washers, bucket seats and a back seat (seats are not original). This bronco is a daily driver that runs and drives great. It is 98 % rust free with very little in the foot area at the front floor. Most have rotted out way before now . The rear quarters have been cut for bigger tires, but no rust is evident here. It can be easily put back to factory specs and condition. This is an awesome Bronco. If you are the winning bidder and are not happy with it when you come to pick it up, I will gladly hold on to it (less deposit). I have no problems keeping this one. Please call if you have any questions - (910) 512-7678. Thanks for looking-

*To understand how rare this Roadster is, search for the article " The Rarity of a True Bronco Roadster" by Jeff Leslie. This bronco has not yet been registered with the national registry. The buyer will have that privilege.

This unique '64 Mustang was Edsel Ford II's first car

Thu, 02 Jan 2014

You probably had the same dream when you were a teenager. Your sixteenth birthday is coming up, or Christmas, or maybe both, and all you want is a muscle car to call your own. That dream has come true for some, and one of them was none other than Edsel Ford II.
Henry Ford's great grandson turned 16 on December 27, 1964 - two days after Christmas and eight months after the original Mustang went on sale. And that's just what was waiting for him in the driveway, courtesy of his father (and reigning chief executive) Henry Ford II.
The specially-prepared pony car had a pearlescent cream paintjob with narrow blue racing stripes, functional hood scoop, chrome trim, Euro-spec fender-mounted mirrors, a blue leather and aluminum interior, a monogrammed fuel cap... and a 289-cubic-inch V8 under the hood.

1969 Ford Talladega GPT Special is a SEMA showstopper

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

Rad Rides by Troy has unleashed upon the SEMA crowds this custom 1969 Ford Torino Talladega GT Special, and it's a beauty. The car calls to mind the classic Holman Moody stock cars that circled NASCAR tracks in the late 1960's, driven by the likes of Mario Andretti, Dan Gurney and David Pearson, who won the Grand National title in both 1968 and '69 in a Ford Torino.
Even though it has plenty of stock-car influence, there's nothing retro about the car's design or powertrain, other than the fact that the engine is based on a Ford Boss 429 block. Fuel injection, aftermarket aluminum heads and a high-tech custom computer system combine to send 750 reliable ponies to the rear wheels through a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. Brakes measure 14-inches all around, with six-piston Wilwood calipers up front and four-piston units out back.
There's custom bodywork abound, painted in a two-tone Tennessee Whiskey Gold and Daytona Sand finish. Check out all the amazing details in the image gallery below, and scroll down to read all about it in designer Troy Trepanier's own words.
