Here is a great deal on a very cool 1973 Ford Bronco.

I'm selling this Bronco for my friend. He purchased the truck in 2010 for $28,000. He immediately got it appraised for insurance reasons and the appraisal came to $26,135. I have a copy of the appraisal and the $265 invoice that will go with the truck. The title is clear and he paid $3,134 to get it current and plated. He had the 351 cu motor rebuilt and spent another $20,000 on upgrades over the last three years. I have most of the documented receipts for the parts and itemized costs so the new buyer will know exactly what's new. It was meant to be a weekend cruiser at his Malibu beach house and during the three years that he worked on it he might have put 25 miles on it. Since then he and his wife had two little boys so the Bronco has to go. I drove it from his beach house to mine and it ran fine but my kidneys weren't happy. She's meaty, beaty, big and bouncy! The approximate total he has into it is $52,000 and that does not include the hundreds of hours he put into it himself. I just installed a new battery yesterday. The stereo has a locked compartment and there is an amp under the passenger seat and a monster base box behind the rear seat. Everything works as it should. I'm not a mechanic nor a body man but here's a couple things I noticed. The entire exhaust system is new and the tailpipe needs to be attached. I think it was ordered separately and not installed and yes it goes with the truck. Gas tank is brand new and the glass is good. The passenger door needs to be adjusted but it does operate as it should. Again, I'm not an expert on these so the appraisal and the paperwork will tell the story on this Bronco. He has between $50-60K into it but he is a realist and asked me to just let it go. Also included is a big box of spare parts most new in the package and some of the original parts that were replaced and a bikini top. I'm going to start the auction off at $20,000 with no reserve. If someone wants it for $25,000 or makes me an offer let me know and I'll let it go. It's going to be parked in a busy location with a for sale sign on it and I'm also going to advertise it locally so I have the right to end the auction early.

Remember that these Broncos are old and require ongoing maintenance. The resto is never really complete as most of the Bronco cult enthusiasts understand, but I want it to be clear that this is not a brand new truck. No warranty, and this truck is being sold in "as-is" condition and no guarantee is otherwise implied.

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Ford Transit can haul on the track

Tue, 19 Aug 2014

Line up any two comparable vehicles, and eople are going to want to race them. Need proof? In its latest track battle, Auto Express wants to know which commercial vehicle can lap a circuit faster - a Ford Transit or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Let's face it, neither of these European vans were ever meant to be near the track unless they are delivering a racecar and a ton of parts for a fun weekend, but it's massively fun to watch them give it a go anyway.
The one thing that Auto Express really illustrates here is the modern marvel that is stability control. The driver hops curves, and these big vans lean in the corners like your friend walking home from a long night at the bar. However, because of the amazing stability systems, the vans mostly keep all of their wheels planted and never seem close to getting sloppy, despite their behemoth size.
Unfortunately, the two vans aren't exactly fairly paired. The Ford has a dual rear axle and a few other advantages over the Mercedes, but it's still hilarious to watch them go. Even better, the host breaks down everything happening behind the wheel like these commercial vehicles were two Porsches. Enjoy watching this very unorthodox battle between Ford and Mercedes.

2015 Ford Mustang [w/videos]

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

It'd be unwise to bet against the sixth generation of this legendary nameplate.
The 2015 Ford Mustang is assuredly the most anticipated new vehicle of the year. The redesigned Pony Car has been the subject of frantic gossiping and covert spy photos covering everything from the way it looks to the tech it will include, its performance, mechanicals and a bevy of other aspects of Ford's performance icon.
