I am reluctantly selling my 1990 Ford Bronco II, 4x4. 2.9 liter, v6 engine. The truck starts right up, and sounds good. There is almost none of the common lifter "tick" that these 2.9's are infamous for. This nice looking truck has 6 inches of body lift (and some suspension lift too) and oversized (brand new) tires (31.5 inch). It's the 5 speed manual transmission and has manual shift 4x4 and manual locking hubs. Trust me, the electronic hubs and shifters are NOT worth the pain. Keep it simple...and always dependable! I put a new clutch in it right after I bought it (about 3-4 years ago) and new oversized shock absorbers, front and rear. The paint is in pretty good shape. There is some fading. Numerous chips and dings here and there. Very minimal body rust. One spot of rust on a rear fender can be seen (see pic). There are a couple of indentions on the upper part of the left front fender. These would probably pop right out if you have one of those suction tools. The frame and underbody is in good condition and has nothing but surface rust. This has not been driven much on salted roads.
The Interior is not in great condition. But is okay. The front seats need replacing. The passenger seat is not too bad, but drivers' seat is very worn, mostly from climbing up and down into the lifted cab.. Carpet is aged and stained. Headliner is good. Back seats are very nice. Dash has some cracking.
Here are some things that I know DO NOT WORK:
AC not working.
No stereo. There are some speakers present. Just no radio.
Passenger-side door is not opening. And the electric window and lock on that side is not working.
Please understand that this is a very highly lifted truck. That means that this is not a vehicle for your 16 year old daughter or your crazy teenaged son. They will roll it over. This is a vehicle made for looking cool or for someone who wants to do 4x4 jeep trails. It is not a drag racer. The rear end is not stock, and seems to be pretty high speed. This means that the initial take off of this truck is sluggish. The small 2.9 liter doesn't jump out of the gates as it pushes these BIG tires and all the body lift. It cruises really comfortably at 45 to 55 mph. But I wouldn't drive it long distances, as it's simply not safe at high speeds. It is top heavy. When using the 4 wheel drive in low range, this truck creeps along and will pull just about anything in the world up a mountain. It's a great trail rig. It is a fun to drive and fun to look at truck. I hate to let it go.
Note about the Vehicle History Report Summary: the sole discrepancy here is the previous owner had to have a new title printed by DMV due to losing the old one. He didn't have the mileage of the vehicle with him, so he simply put down 100,000. But the actual mileage was somewhere between 60,000 to 70,000 on the odometer. The reason the truck has been driven so few miles in the last number of years is because IT IS A LIFTED TRUCK. You don't take these on vacation drives across the USA. There's nothing I can do the clear this title issue up, due the previous bonehead owner! But look at the rest of the report and you can see there has never been an accident. Hope this explains the issue.
Since it is 23 years old, the truck is sold "as-is" and where it is. There is no warranty expressed or implied. I have done my best to accurately describe the vehicle. a $300 deposit will be required within 24 hours of auction end. If the deposit is not received in that time period, I will automatically relist the item. Don't bid unless you plan on buying the truck. There's not that many of these trucks left, so let the people who know what they're doing have them. Okay?!! The truck is for sale locally for $2000. People just started looking at it today (March 16). I reserve the right to end the auction early if I sell it locally (regardless of bidding history on the eBay auction.)
Please read this listing carefully and look at all the pictures. If you still have questions, then fire away. I'll do my best to answer in a timely fashion.

Ford files trademark for 'EcoBeast' moniker
Mon, Dec 29 2014Ford has done some performance stuff with its EcoBoost line of vehicles, most notably with its Focus and Fiesta ST, the new, turbocharged Mustang and the luke-warm Taurus SHO and F-150 Tremor, but it's kind of avoided going wholly bonkers. That could be set to change quite soon, judging by a trademark filing with Uncle Sam. Ford has registered the name EcoBeast with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, listing it as "automobiles and automobile engines," according to the team at Motorlix, which discovered the filing. As always, it bears mentioning that companies are constantly filing trademarks, even if a good or service never emerges with said name. We agree with Motorlix, though – it seems highly unlikely Ford is going to just let this name languish. What vehicle or engine will wear this new badge is the real question. We're leaning towards something F-150 related, based on our last round of spy photos of the new SVT Raptor, although it's impossible to say for certain what the Blue Oval has planned. Here's hoping we find out in just a few weeks when Ford brings basically all of its performance merchandise to the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. Until then, let us know what you think Ford is planning with the EcoBeast.
Ford ditching Microsoft in favor of BlackBerry QNX for next-gen Sync?
Mon, 24 Feb 2014Ask the average consumer - at least, those who follow the goings-on in the automotive industry - which carmaker they'd most closely associate Microsoft, and the answer you'd most likely get would be Ford. The Blue Oval automaker, after all, was at the forefront of bringing Microsoft technology into cars with its pioneering Sync system, and, though reality didn't turn out as such, Ford's CEO was recently touted as a potential future head of the Redmond-based software giant. But that relationship, according to the latest reports, could be coming to an end.
Alan Mullaly kiboshed the idea of leaving Dearborn for Redmond, but more importantly Ford is tipped to be ditching Microsoft in developing its next-generation Sync system. In its place, Ford is expected to partner with BlackBerry's QNX division.
Now, before you go balking "BlackBerry?! But they're finished!" consider that QNX is (or at least was) an independent entity that Research In Motion (as BlackBerry's Ontario-based parent company was then known) just happened to have bought back in 2010. QNX provides control systems to everything from nuclear power plants and UAVs to automakers like Audi, BMW and Porsche.
Lincoln recycling tree fibers into new MKX armrest
Thu, Feb 27 2014Want to hug a tree, or at least a really small part of one. Then set your arm down on one of those armrests in the 2014 Lincoln MKX crossover. The US automaker is working with Weyerhaeuser and Johnson Controls on a tree-based, cellulose-reinforced polypropylene material used in the component that connects the armrest to the floor console, Wards Auto says. With properties similar to plastic, the tree-based material replaces fiberglass and is about six percent lighter. No big deal for now, but if the material starts getting used for things like battery trays and interior storage covers, that loss in weight may eventually start adding up enough to boost fuel economy a bit, providing a green double bonus. Lincoln parent Ford, which isn't saying how much more (or less?) it costs to use the new material, established its Biomaterials and Plastics Research team in 2001. In 2007, the company began using soy-based foam in car seats used for models such as the Lincoln Navigator and Ford Mustang and has since broadened biomaterials use to components like floormats and cupholder inserts. Ford also used recycled plastic bottles from the 2012 North America International Auto Show for seats in the Focus Electric.
