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.

Leno drives Henry Ford II's all-original '52 Ferrari 212 Barchetta
Tue, 17 Jun 2014The story of the relationship between Henry Ford II and Enzo Ferrari is absolutely fascinating. The two great men of the auto industry had what appeared to be a burgeoning friendship until Ferrari pulled out of a deal to sell his company to Ford in the '60s. The latest car featured in Jay Leno's Garage is a 1952 Ferrari 212 Barchetta that tells the very beginnings of that story.
This Prancing Horse was a gift to Ford from Enzo when the two companies were first thinking about merging, according to the curator of the Petersen Automotive Museum. Ferrari really wanted to show off its best so instead of the 212's normal V12, this car was fitted with the larger 2.7-liter unit from a Ferrari 225. The car has been almost unaltered since then. It still wears its original paint, and it's tires date back to 1954.
The great thing about the Petersen is that unlike a lot of auto museums, the people there actually drive the cars and keep them in working order. Once on the road with Leno behind the wheel, this Ferrari really sings. Unfortunately, he can't open it up too much because the 60-year-old tires really hold things back. Scroll down to watch this amazing piece of automotive history and learn it's possible effect on the styling of the original Ford Thunderbird.
Feds looking into Ford Explorer exhaust leak complaints
Fri, 20 Jun 2014There may be a burgeoning problem with exhaust leaks in the 2011-2014 model year Ford Explorer. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is examining multiple complaints of a gasoline smell in the cabin of these SUVs. However, the exact cause of this problem is still unknown.
"The agency is reviewing all available data and will take appropriate action as warranted," said a NHTSA spokesperson in an email to Automotive News. Owners seem to generally complain on the regulator's website of the smell entering the cabin through the air vents. At this time, the government organization has not yet opened an official investigation into the problem, though. When it does begin inspecting vehicles, NHTSA posts a detailed breakdown of its public data online.
Similar problems have been reported about the Explorer in the past, though. In 2013, Ford issued a recall for the 2013 model year of the SUV due to a fuel leak that could cause drivers to smell a gasoline odor and repaired them again later for another possible leak. In response to Autoblog's questions, Ford responded via email: "We are not aware of a NHTSA investigation. We are currently reviewing the case and in the event that any action is required, we will address it promptly."
Ford adding stop-start to all major model lines
Sun, 24 Nov 2013Ford has gone all-in on its efforts to offer most of its new vehicles with a fuel-efficient EcoBoost engine, but the automaker is reportedly preparing to take another big step toward improving vehicle efficiency. Automotive News is reporting that Ford will soon expand the availability of start-stop technology, which was first offered - presumably the first non-hybrid vehicle, that is - on the 2013 Fusion (equipped with the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine) as a $295 option.
The benefit of start-stop is reduced fuel consumption as it shuts the engine off at long stops, and AN quotes Ford as saying that drivers can save more than $1,000 on fuel costs over five years. Despite this, the option hasn't been popular on the Fusion thus far, but it could be more beneficial on bigger vehicles like the F-150. Ford also said that the next-gen Edge, which was previewed in concept form at the LA Auto Show, will be equipped with auto start-stop to help make the EcoBoost engines even more efficient.
