True un-restored and uncut 1966 Ford Bronco Roadster, U13 vin code. Built in October, 1965. Bought from original owner's son in 1994 in Charlotte, NC. 75,103 original miles; original engine rebuilt in 1999 but only 1,000 miles since then. Has been in storage since 2000, driven occasionally until 2006. Pulled out of storage last month, taken to the mechanic for a complete check-up, and then detailed.

To the best of my knowledge, the Bronco has never been wrecked. I've certainly never wrecked it and I was told when I bought it, that it had never even been in a fender bender. The gas tank leaks when full.

New high-quality, custom-made seat covers (front buckets and rear bench) to match the original factory spec vinyl, including gray color (only color available on the '66 models) and texture, installed in 2000. Not sure if the paint is original (it's not been painted since I've had it) but is in very good condition. Small, slight bubble rust under paint in one place on front right quarter panel, near bumper. Slight surface rust on original floor pans; slight surface rust on the original bumpers. When I say "surface", I mean surface.

Just had all fluids changed, new tires (235/75R15 Goodyear radials), new battery, new brakes, rebuilt master cylinder, new right front brake cylinder, new front axle seals. My mechanic could not find a new distributor cap or rotor button, so it "bucks" a little on take off.

Less than 5,000 Roadsters were produced by Ford. How many are still around? And how many are still around in this condition...uncut, unmolested, and un-restored? My guess is less than five.

Features:

original number-matching 170cid straight 6 engine
original 1-barrel carburetor
original lock-out hubs (rebuilt 1995) on the 4-wheel drive front axle
original oil bath air filter
original vacuum windshield wipers
original hub caps, plus 4 extra rear caps (unique to '66--not sold on pickups or any other vehicles)
original straight-end bumpers (unique to '66 and '67 models)
original driver side mirror (unique to early Roadsters, not an after-market one)
original "pencil" dash pad, with no cracks (unique to '66 and '67 models)
original eyebrow grill (only found on early production '66s)
original FOMOCO washer fluid bag
original 3-on-the-tree 3.03 manual transmission
original long-throw 4-wheel drive transfer case control stick with round ball head (only found on early production '66s)
original rubber transfer case boot (unique to '66 models)
original rear bench seat, loved by my kids when they were little
original black arm rests on rear bench seat (unique to '66 models)
original 15-inch wheels, including the spare
original rear tail light lenses (no "clear" reverse section; unique to '66 models)
original FOMOCO tail hitch
original fold-down windshield (hinged to fold flat on top of the hood, with a pin hitch to hold it in place)
original skid plate protecting the transfer case

The successful bidder must make a $250 deposit via PayPal within 48 hours of the close of the auction. Full payment for the vehicle must be made within seven days of the close of the auction. The vehicle will not be released until payment is received via bank transfer or other means acceptable to the owner. Sale does not include shipping. Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements and costs.

I have tried to provide an honest description of this Bronco. I encourage anyone interested in bidding to view the Bronco in person, it is located in Pine Mountain, GA. If you have any questions, please let me know prior to bidding.

This Bronco is sold as-is, where-is, with no warranty implied or given.

On Jan-28-13 at 17:47:51 PST, seller added the following information:

To answer a question I received...this Bronco came from the factory without "hard" doors and top. It came with canvas doors (mounted on metal rod frames) and canvas top. There are no door hinges, just holes to receive the metal rod frames at the bottom. The current door frames are original; the canvas doors and canvas top are replacements the original owner did in the 1980's.

I've posted a picture from a few years ago showing the Bronco with the doors off and the top rolled up in the back and on the sided. I have a picture somewhere of the top completely off but cannot find it right now; if I find it, I'll post it.

Ford pits The Stig against Gran Turismo 6 in Focus ST Goodwood run

Thu, 03 Jul 2014

The Goodwood Festival of Speed is one of the world great automotive gatherings. So, it was the perfect event for Ford to give the refreshed 2015 Focus ST its world debut in front of a loving public. It even surprised us with a new diesel-powered version, as well.
The Blue Oval really put its focus on making the ST a better driver for this refresh. It left its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder alone to still pump out a respectable 252 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. The changes like a retuned front suspension, electric power steering and improved interior made the hot hatch an even better place to spend time behind the wheel.
To prove that the Focus ST is still as potent as ever, Ford set up a one-on-one race up the Goodwood Hill. But instead of putting the two cars side-by-side, former Stig from Top Gear UK, Ben Collins, piloted the real model up the course, and his rival drove the virtual version in Gran Turismo 6. The two hot hatches set off at the same time to see whether reality could beat the virtual world, and the finish was actually extremely close. Scroll down to watch the video and find out the winner of this battle at Goodwood.

Ford and GM link bonus checks to quality scores

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

The poor first quarter earnings of Ford and General Motors are having an effect all the way up the food chain. Both automakers struggled with recalls in the first three months of the year, and, according to The Detroit News, they have responded by increasing the percentage of bonuses tied to vehicle quality for salaried workers, including top executives.
GM announced that 25 percent of bonuses (up from 10 percent) for all salaried workers would be tied to its vehicle quality standards. The automaker revealed in its financial report that it spent $1.3 billion on recall-related repairs in the first quarter, and net income was down 86 percent.
Ford also increased the quality proportion of bonuses for about 26,000 salaried workers all the way up to CEO Alan Mulally from 10 percent to 20 percent. The company announced in its report that the amount paid out in warranty and recall claims was about $400 million higher than expected in the first quarter. Its net income fell 39 percent from the previous year. "The change reflects how critical quality is to our overall business," said spokesperson Todd Nissen speaking to Autoblog.

You can now order Domino's pizza from your Sync-equipped Ford

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

The news keeps pouring in from the Consumer Electronics Show now underway in Las Vegas, and the latest comes from Ford which has announced two new apps for its Sync AppLink system.
First up is a cooperative app launched by Ford together with Domino's Pizza that lets drivers of the former order pizza from the latter right from their car. The service allows those with Ford Sync AppLink in their car or truck and are registered with a Domino's Pizza Profile to place an order for their favorite pie using Dearborn's voice-recognition software for either pickup or delivery. Save your information in your Pizza Profile and it'll be sent to your house without even the push of a button, which strikes us as awesome a use of technology as we've ever seen.
