I have a really nice 1976 Ford Bronco that I have owned for about four years. You know the drill - I have always wanted one. This bronco was painted about two years before I got it so the paint is about six years old. The paint looks really good. I've been told it is a single stage, extremely straight. The only things negative about the body and paint that I have noticed is the front windshield frame has a couple of very small little bubbles, and there is one spot on the tailgate that faces inside the car that is a rust spot about the size of a dime. When I looked, I looked at about twelve of them and by far this one was the nicest in my budget range. It has an after-market fiber glass hood. You can see that it has been cut on the rear with fiber glass flares. It was painted with the top off, which I thought was nice. The reason why I am selling this, is like I said that I have owned it for about four years and I have put about fifteen miles on it. It just doesn't do any good having a vehicle like this and not drive it. The things that have recently been done on it include having the engine rebuilt and bored 30 over. It had 10K miles on it when I bought it. They did put an Edelbrock aluminum intake on it. I actually put a brand new Edelbrock 600 carburetor on it. I just put a brand new electric fuel pump just to help it along. I put on their to accomodate the altitude. It does have the Mallery ignition on it, a unilite distributor, 3-speed manual transmission. It feels pretty good overall. Front disc brakes and the pads look like they have a lot of life left on them. It's got a Dana 44 LS front with 4.10 gear ratio, has a Ford 9" open rear end with 410 gear ratio. The front has dual rancho shocks. It does have power front disc brakes, power steering that works extremely well. Front worn hubs, custom 6-point roll cage, tires are like new - 32x10.50x15s with Ford aluminum wheels. All the front bushings have been replaced. When I first got it, it ran really good, and it still runs good, but I think the plugs might be fouled from sitting. I started it the other day, I can tell it just might need plugs. I've been around engines all my life, it is a good engine, seems like it is balanced real well; no ticking, no smoke, I think it has one very minor leak. I haven't driven it enough, so I wouldn't say that it can make it long trips. the only reason I say that is because I haven't driven it much. It is fun around town; nothing goofy or weird about it, but it is old. Windows roll up and down great, the door handles are new, but the buttons seem a little tight. Front windshield is not cracked, but it does have some pitting to it. Carpet looks okay, but there are some spots that look like they're worn. Windshield wipers are not on the car, but I have them in a box in the bronco. I took the air cleaner off the car, but it was for pictures only, I do have it for the buyer.  The lights all worked when I bought it, but I haven't checked since. Doors shut real nice, no sagging. I can't tell you who is going to go to the Super Bowl this year, or who is going to win, but I can tell you that I will not take 8, 9, or even 10 thousand for this bronco. So, if you're thinking that, just to save you and me some time. If you have any questions, please, please call me, I will be as honest as I can about it. I am going to hate to see it go. 303.638.6972The vehicle is sold as is and all sales are final. Please ask all your questions before purchasing. I will be available by phone or email. I prefer wire transfers (in the past I have received a couple of fake cashiers checks, and paypal just charges too much), but if you are picking up I will accept cash. Vehicle needs to be picked up within two weeks of end of auction, and needs to be paid in full within three days of end of auction.  Shipping is buyers responsibility.  303.638.6972

2015 Ford Mustang GT road test ride-along

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

You've no doubt already pored over our first drive of the 2015 Ford Mustang, where author Jonathon Ramsey proclaimed that "this new car shames the old, redefines the model and gallops far ahead of anything else in the segment." And following Ramsey's first stint behind the wheel of Ford's new coupe, we sent him back out with another 'Stang to capture some of these same impressions over a backdrop of the car moving quickly along gorgeous California canyon roads.
But this also gave our author and editors time to read through the hundreds of comments left on that original Mustang review. You readers are indeed a vocal bunch, and one particular comment about how the automotive media is so willing to bash an outgoing car as soon as the new one arrives really caught our attention. In this video, Ramsey stands by his written text, saying the new Mustang is "massively better than the one it replaces," and in doing so, addresses your comments while providing more insight into just how good the Ford truly is.
We won't spoil the rest for you. Check out the feature video above, and as always, leave us your thoughts in the Comments section below.

V6 engines will outpace V8s for the 2015 Ford F-150

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

How times have changed. Even five years ago, who would have thought the mighty V8 would be just another engine choice for buyers of the 2015 Ford F-150?
Ford is projecting about 28 percent of the next-generation trucks will have the 5.0-liter V8. That's nothing to sneeze at, but consider this: Ford figures its two EcoBoost truck engines - the new 2.7-liter V6 and the existing 3.5-liter V6 - will also each account for about 28 percent of the F-150's sales (56 percent total). That leaves only 15 percent of the pie for the 3.5-liter (non-EcoBoost) V6. The new F-150 goes on sale late this year.

2015 Ford F-Series Super Duty Power Stroke

Tue, 29 Jul 2014

What weighs 30,000 pounds? Big Ben's Westminster bell. A navy ship anchor. Or as we found out during our first drive program for the 2015 Ford F-Series Super Duty, seven pallets of cinder blocks loaded onto a dual-axle gooseneck trailer. The test was part of a raft of towing demonstrations that showcased the new Super Duty's impressive tug capacity, which maxes out at 32,100 pounds. That's 1,200 more than its nearest rival, the Ram 3500, when equipped with its upgraded 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel V8. Such is the heavy-duty pickup truck business, a diesel-fueled game of one-upmanship with only three players: Ford, Chevrolet/GMC and Ram. And in this game, the one with the most torque wins.
Until 2014, Ford was the one to beat, with its 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel bringing 400 hp and a massive 800 lb-ft of torque to the table. Then last year, Ram did exactly that, serving Ford with a beefed-up Cummins turbodiesel inline-six in its freshened Ram Heavy Duty truck line with 385 hp and 850 lb-ft of torque, enabling it to tow up to 30,000 pounds. But Ford claims it had designed its engine to be relatively easy to upgrade when the time called for it, so for 2015, Ford bolted a larger turbo to the Power Stroke, bringing output to an insane 440 hp and 860 lb-ft of twist, all without reducing fuel efficiency. Maximum tow capacity rises from 24,700 lbs to an incredible 31,200 lbs for the F-450 dually.
As for GM's HDs? They lag behind the lot with their 6.6-liter Duramax V-8, producing 397 hp and 765 lb-ft of torque. Yeah, you know things are serious when the trucks with 765 lb-ft are the knock-kneed wimps of the lot.
