1986 Ford Bronco Ii Xlt Sport Utility 4x4 Diamond In The Not-too-rough on 2040-cars
Middletown, California, United States
|
Recently rescued from a few years of my family's outdoor under-the-pines storage here in the mountains of Northern California. Looking for a good home for this otherwise remarkably preserved Bronco II, showing almost no wear and tear. I don't want to see it spend another winter outside here... It is "NON-OPed" so there are no DMV fees here in California against it. It's the 2.9 L V6, "loaded" with an automatic transmission, air-conditioning, power brakes, power steering, power windows, power door locks, tilt wheel, cruise control and AM/FM cassette. This vehicle's been sitting and it will need some work before it can return to its former glory. Recent outdoor storage in a very moist microclimate has left it with the following challenges: Engine freeze plugs are frozen or rusted out, so the engine does not hold coolant but it starts right up and sounds fine and will run plenty long enough before it warms up to drive up onto a car hauler or trailer. The service brakes need the master cylinder & booster replaced but the parking brake works well enough for careful yard driving. In the very short distances that I have driven the truck, I have never exceeded 10 or 15 miles an hour, but there were no bad noises, the transmission operated normally, steering felt fine, etc. The undercarriage has minor surface rust, but everything is very solid. The only other things I have noticed is that there is a star chip in the windshield, unfortunately right in the driver's line of sight and one little "V6" emblem is missing from the right front fender. On the plus side, before this vehicle's recent poor storage it was mechanic owned and pampered. The body is remarkably straight. After vigorous massaging I found that the original paint still shines although it does have some damage to the paint and paint loss on the roof. The headliner is perfect and the rest of the very bright red '80's-style interior shows remarkably well with minor color fading to the tops of the door panels, but no noticeable wear anywhere. The interior is a bit dirty here and there and smells a bit musty but looks very good. I have never gotten around to cleaning it or airing it out at all. This vehicle is sold as is, where is. I have brought it to the fleet repair garage where I work. Please call the shop manager, Peter, at (707) 987-0254 Extn.22 with any questions or to arrange to see this vehicle or if you need more pictures. I can answer emails also. Transporting the vehicle will be entirely the buyers responsibility, but we are available to officiate at its loading. A non-refundable $500 Pay-pal deposit is required of the winning bidder. Balance due in bank wire transfer, pay-pal or cash in person.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Concentrated ST Formula Proves Just As Potent
I'm not the jealous type... usually. But I will fully admit to being somewhat of a Pouty Polly when I read executive editor Chris Paukert's report after driving the then-new 2013 Ford Focus ST through the impossibly pretty southern French Alps region last June. I feel like a broken record saying this yet again, but hot hatchbacks hold a special place in my heart. And while I'm always giddy to drive any sort of small, turbocharged three- or five-door at home in Detroit, my jealousy was indeed piqued after hearing Paukert tell about the challenging yet breathtaking roads he encountered while driving the flamin' yellow Focus. You know, the sort of roads that, from above, look like carelessly drizzled lines of icing on the frosted Alpen caps.
Several months later, I found myself piloting a Focus ST just west of metro Detroit, pitting it head-to-head against one of Autoblog's perennial favorite cars, the Volkswagen GTI. It was fantastic - enough so that I fully stand behind my statement that in terms of balls-out performance, the Focus ST cannot be beat as far as today's front-wheel-drive hatches are concerned.
