Hockessin, Delaware, United States

1970 Ford Bronco
From the dry desert southwest, then barn stored for years, then inherited by family in California. Used originally for geology work and even has a gold pan along with some 70's era camping supplies. There are bumps and scratches seen with normal use. The original color was a light tan which turned out to be hard to the spot at a distance in the desert so the original owner had it painted bright yellow at the Ford dealership. 302 2bbl carb with manual choke 3pd on the column Has original black mat on floor. Lots of patina and maintains a vintage look.. Note the "ugly" stuff seen under the hood where fenders bolt is painted over undercoating that was painted over 20+ and is cracking. ( not rusted out blistered metal seen in a northeast truck) it has been in Delaware for less than a year and garaged. Again overall the body is very nice, not rusted away and basically untouched. Rare 4 Wheeler Camper in very nice condition ( this is one the nicest and most original I have been able to find). It has all the basics -2 beds, mini fridge, cook top, table, pots and pans, storage area, small propane and water tank, and heater. In short a cool vintage camper, perfect for a long weekend or car events.
Sold as is, where is due to vehicle age. Accept cash for in person pickup or bankwire. Buyer to pay for any shipping but I will assist in helping where possible. Of note with the camper in the down position it is within a few inches of the typical hardtop so shipping should be easier. I reserve the right to sell at any time and the ability to reject bids. Due to age, sold as is where is. Clear Delaware title, insured by Hagerty. This is the same family that it for sale a few weeks ago.

70% of pickups could use aluminum by 2025
Wed, 11 Jun 2014In the next decade, the auto industry will see an explosion in its use of aluminum to cut weight and increase fuel economy, according to a study from market analysts Ducker Worldwide cited by The Detroit News. We are already seeing the lightweight metal show up extensively in luxury models from Europe, but with the impending launch of aluminum-intensive 2015 Ford F-150 (pictured above), North America is using it even more, as well. The report predicts 70 percent of US pickups to have aluminum bodies by 2025.
It won't just be pickups that see the benefit, though. The average amount of aluminum in US vehicles is forecasted by the study to grow from an average of 350 pounds in 2013 to about 550 pounds by 2025. The most common parts to use it will be hoods, doors and - to some extent - roofs, as well.
The massive increase in pickups' aluminum content hardly seems surprising. The F-150 is predicted to use so much that it might cause a short-term shortage, according to one earlier report. At the same time General Motors is heavily rumored to be negotiating with suppliers for the next generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. Ram is the last holdout of the Big Three, but the study predicts that not to last.
2014 Ford Transit unveiled in Chassis Cab and Cutaway versions
Fri, 08 Mar 2013As a leader in commercial vehicles here in the US, we knew Ford wouldn't take too long to show off the chassis cab and cutaway versions of its 2014 Ford Transit van. Set to go on sale this fall, Ford already revealed the full-body version of the Transit, and now it has pulled the cover off exposed-frame models just in time to to compete against the all-new Ram Promaster.
The term "chassis cab" refers to models with a fully enclosed cabin used for box vans or rental trucks, while cutaway models leave the cabin open behind the B-pillars for a pass-through on vehicles such as Class C motorhomes or ambulances. Both will offer three wheelbase options (138, 156 and 178 inches), the choice of single or dually rear axles, and plenty of upfitter-friendly touches including a pre-wired body harness and multiple body mount locations.
The new design will also help make upfitting a little easier since the fuel filler is now built into the cab (just behind the driver's door). Those integrated fuel filler necks will serve to feed either a 3.7-liter V6, a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, or a 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel. Transit chassis cab and cutaways will wear varying Gross vehicle weight ratings from 9,000 pounds to 10,360 pounds depending on spec.
Ford and 'Dirty Jobs' pitchman Mike Rowe part ways [w/videos]
Thu, 20 Feb 2014Former Dirty Jobs host Mike Rowe has one less job as of today - the pitchman is no longer a pitchman for Ford, with yesterday's announcement from Rowe ending a seven-year partnership between the TV host and the Blue Oval.
Rowe made the announcement to political pundit Glenn Beck, saying the two are "going in different directions" and wishing Ford "every possibly success that any car company could ever have," according to The Detroit News. Rowe and Ford got together in 2005, right around the time the 51-year-old came to prominence as the host of Dirty Jobs and the narrator for Deadliest Catch, two of the Discovery Channel's most popular shows.
Take a look below for a few video snippets of Rowe's tenure at Ford.
