Up for Auction is a 1973 Ford Bronco I am selling for my Uncle who now resides in Florida. The Bronco belonged to his brother who sadly passed away last fall. The Bronco was purchased by him in 2008 and restored by him in the winter of 08/09. It shows 73717 on the odometer, which is currently working and I would believe to be accurate original mileage, however I can make no guarantees as we unfortunately don't have that information. I am posting this add with the information that I have found in receipts and by looking the vehicle over in my shop. I have found receipts for oil pump, water pump, cam & lifters, valve job, ect so I believe that the 302ci v8 was rebuilt in the summer of 2009. I have also found receipts for body panels, floor pans, paint and labor in the winter of 08/09. It would appear to me that after purchase in 2008 the Bronco underwent a complete home garage restoration. It has a James Duff multi shock suspension lift with 33X14.50R15LT tires tucked under it. Along with a James Duff steering stabilizer, rebuilt power steering pump and gear box. It appears the axles were rebuilt and that ARB air lockers were installed at that time along with warn locking front hubs. The bronco has a 4spd manual transmission and a 2spd transfer case for 4wd mode. The interior has front bucket leather seats with a locking Tuffy center console and glove box. AM/FM cassette stereo with 6x9 speakers in boxes along with a Clarion Amp and a subwoofer in the rear. The bronco does not have any rear seating at this time. It does have a roll bar with multiple grab handles. The top is removable and it does have a Bestop Bikini Top that comes with it. The bronco has dual fuel tanks and they appear to switch as they should. The truck has numerous add-ons that I can see, too many to list even though I found receipts for most so that I could. I however recommend if you are interested that you come and see it in person as I said I do not know alot about the vehicle and we have no one to inquire with, so I also ask that you inspect it and be sure that you know what is there as I said I am going by receipts and what little knowledge we have of the vehicle. I know that after it was restored it has seen very little mileage and had been sitting in garage for years. The bronco was removed from the garage in the spring and transported to Turner Automotive in Victor, N.Y. where it was gone through in order to sell there on consignment. I picked it up from them recently as it did not sell. I flat hauled it to my residence and then drove it approximately 2 miles to be sure it ran, drove and stopped as it should. Everything appears to work as it should on test drive. I did observe a small coolant leak where water pump mounts and a oil pan gasket leak which I cleaned and tightened, may need new gaskets, I believe the gaskets dried out while sitting for an extended period. The truck is in nice shape and had a good home shop restoration, with that said it is not showroom perfect. I again ask that you inspected it before bidding as I make no guarantees on the vehicle or its condition. I want you the buyer to be happy with it and not to go by my description. I do have a clear New York State Title for the vehicle and can provide a sales tax form or receipt from the estate. Shipping is the responsibilty of the buyer. I will require a non-refundable$500.00 deposit via paypal and require the rest in cash or certified bank check upon pick-up. I also reserve the right to end this auction as I do have the vehicle for sale locally. If you have any further questions or wish to make an appointment to view this vehicle you can reach me at 585-281-5416 by text or call.

Ford director says company has big efficiency plans, but no dedicated EV
Wed, Mar 12 2014The annual autofest known as the North American International Auto Show previews a plethora of exciting new products that we'll see and drive later in the year, from tiny urban commuters to family sedans and crossovers to hard-working big pickups and SUVs. It's also a once-a-year cornucopia of auto executives and leaders from around the world. "There will be some really fun stuff that you'll hear about in the future" - Ford's Kevin Layden So, in-between dozens of cool new-product unveilings on rotating stages during the two press days preceding the public show, we auto scribes grab what planned and impromptu interviews we can. Sessions with top industry leaders can be hard to get, but I was able to score a seat in a group session with then-General Motors North America president (now executive VP of global product development) Mark Reuss, and I also managed brief one-on-ones with a trio of vehicle electrification leaders, one each from Ford, BMW and GM, and what they said then remains relevant now. First up is Kevin Layden, Ford's Director of Electrified Powertrain Engineering. ABG: Where will Ford go beyond its current Focus EV and hybrids, and will there be a Ford EV and/or hybrid on its own energy-optimized platform one day. KL: We don't want to do a dedicated electric vehicle with all the development costs borne by a niche product. At the Michigan Assembly plant right now we're building the Focus electric, PHEV and EcoBoost on the same assembly line. Also the C-Max, with both a hybrid and an Energi plug-in, and we use that same power pack in the Fusion Hybrid and Energi. We want to be, "The power of choice" [a Ford marketing slogan], so having that choice for customers is very important. And if I want to sell the Fusion, Focus and C-Max globally, we can use these power packs wherever it makes sense. So as we go forward, you'll see us proliferating the power packs we have today. Then the question is, what do we do next? There will be some really fun stuff that you'll hear about in the future. ABG: Is the efficiency difference between a dedicated ultra-efficient vehicle platform and a shared multi-use platform getting smaller as all platforms get more efficient? KL: Exactly. Were going through aero studies now on wheels and tires and hood sealers on base vehicles. We have full aerodynamic wind tunnel studies going on with the base Focus and C-Max, so all of that [aerodynamic improvement] will be there for EVs.
Ford announces 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition
Tue, 09 Apr 2013Ford has pulled the wraps off its anticipated 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition model, a new variant of the popular street-legal off-road specialist. In a nutshell, the "special" is all cosmetic - there are no mechanical upgrades to the truck and its 6.2-liter V8 (411 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque), Torsen limited-slip differential, beadlock-capable wheels and internal triple-bypass FOX Racing Shox dampers all remain untouched.
The SVT Raptor Special Edition, which adds cosmetic enhancements to the existing Luxury Package, will be offered in Ruby Red Metallic and Tuxedo Black Metallic with box-side graphics. The interior upgrades include Brick Red seat bolsters (with black inserts), cloth honeycomb highlights and a console top finish panel.
As of now, Ford has only release a couple pictures of the Special Edition model. But check back later, as we will update the gallery when additional high-res images are released later today, and be sure to peruse the press release below for all the details.
Ford 1.0L takes third-straight International Engine of the Year award
Thu, 26 Jun 2014Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost is proving to be The Little Engine That Could, and it continues to acquit itself well, finding favor as one of the best powerplants in the world. To confirm it yet again, the tiny mill just won the International Engine of the Year award for the third year in a row, likewise also nabbing the title in the Sub 1.0-liter category.
Packing 123 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque with overboost (125 lb-ft normally), the tiny engine combines impressive power in a size small enough to be a carry-on item for a commercial flight. US buyers only got a taste of the award winner in the 2014 Fiesta, while the 1.0 EcoBoost has been available throughout the Ford lineup in Europe for a few years now. American sales have reportedly been strong, however, and next up in the US, the mill will find its way into the 2015 Focus.
The panel of 82 jury members from 34 countries also named the Mercedes-AMG 2.0-liter turbo found in the A45, CLA45 and GLA45 AMG models with 355 hp and 332 lb-ft as the best New Engine for 2014. The electric powertrain from Tesla won Green Engine prize, and the 4.5-liter V8 from the Ferrari 458 Italia took home the honor of top Performance Engine yet again. You can check out all the winners below, and scroll down further to read Ford's celebratory announcement of its award.
