1968 Ford Bronco Original Uncut Body. This is a great restoration candidate if you are wanting a Bronco in great shape, with not very much work needed. Runs and drives great, no leaks, 3 speed on the tree. Starts up quickly and doesn't smoke. Recently inspected (7/2013). No major dents or rust on the exterior of the vehicle-- looks great from 10ft. Removable hardtop with 302 Engine - the engine is not original and is an 80's 302 that I've gone through and does not leak, installed by the PO.

I purchased it from a gentleman that had the bronco for 18 years, and it was well taken care of-- there are approximately 80K miles, and I have no way to tell if they are original, but they could be based upon the condition of the vehicle--he even had the original keys! From what I know, has been a Texas vehicle all its life. I believe it has a dealer installed A/C with an original york compressor. Rims and Tires are in great condition, both gas tanks work and can be filled. Bronco does not have a rear seat, and has a divider behind the seat as if it had a truck cab at some point. Bed is carpeted with black carpet.

Selling because I've got too many projects and too many cars (3).

Since I bought the bronco, the below is what I've done to the vehicle:

1. Pertronix Ignition - No more points, faster start, more power to sparkplugs
2. Pertronix Coil, 40,000 Volts
3. New Sparkplugs
4. New High Performance Sparkplug Wires
5. New Harmonic Balancer
6. Went through engine, repainted parts, installed all new intake gaskets, oil pan gasket, timing cover gaskets, etc
7. Installed new heater box gaskets and patched cracks in heater gasket
8. New Horn
9. Rebuilt Autolite 2100 Carb
10. New Brake Shoes and Drums on Rear
11. New Fuel Sending units for main and fuel tank.
12. New Fuel Filler Hose
13. Replaced Exhaust Donuts (no leaks)
14. New Turn Signal Wiring/Cam
15. New Turn Signal Lever
16. New 4x4 Shifter Handle

Now the bad, (short list)
1. Minor rust in passenger floor, and surface rust in driver floor (has been replaced).
2. Top has rust-through in the rear sides where by the back hatch and other minor surface rust
3. 4WD Shift Lever Needs Replacement
4. Rust Hole in Passenger Kick Panel area (size of a quarter)

Gets looks everywhere you go. Have the original 1968 Key Set and clear blue texas title.

Uber hopes facilities in Detroit will help shape its autonomous future

Mon, Sep 19 2016

Hot off the heels of unleashing its fleet of self-driving vehicles in Pittsburgh, PA, Uber announced plans to open a new facility in the Detroit, MI area, reports Automotive News. The new facility was announced at an event hosted by Society of Automotive Engineers in Detroit, MI. Uber's vice president of global vehicle programs Sherif Marakby revealed the news, reports Automotive News. The facility is meant to help the ride-sharing company collaborate with suppliers and automakers in the area. There's no word on where Uber will build the new facility or how big it will be, as those factors have yet to be determined. Just like Pittsburgh, PA, Detroit, MI could become another testing ground for the ride-sharing company. The latest move to open a facility in the Detroit area comes after Uber offered users in Pittsburgh the chance to ride in one of its autonomous vehicle as it looks to gain vital real-world testing. Uber is utilizing a fleet of modified Ford Fusions. Earlier this year in April, the automaker announced a partnership with Google, Lyft, Uber, and Volvo to develop autonomous cars. A new facility in Detroit would strengthen the partnership and help Uber, as well as Ford put autonomous vehicles on the road faster.

Ford hybrids getting update to improve fuel economy

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

Ford has announced that it is introducing "calibration updates designed to improve on-road fuel economy for owners of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid."
We can speculate that these changes are at least due in part to lawsuits over mileage claims of hybrid vehicles. The automaker is enhancing 2013 models starting in August by raising their electric cruising speed to 85 miles per hour from 62 mph, optimizing the use of active grille shutters and the climate control system, shortening the engine warm-up period by 50 percent and reducing electric fan speed to minimize the fan's energy consumption.
It bears mentioning that Ford is doing pretty well in the US electrified vehicle market this year. The company claims to have grown its share in the segment by 12 points to 16 percent while taking a high number of Toyota Prius trade-ins in the process. Conversely, Toyota has experienced a five-percent drop in new-Prius sales over the same period. Additionally, Ford states that it has increased its share of the US vehicle market by one percent this year, more than any full-line automaker.

Ford F-250 boots Cadillac Escalade from atop thieves' most-wanted list

Tue, 09 Jul 2013

The Ford F-Series has been America's best-selling truck for decades, but along with the good comes the bad, apparently. In addition to being popular with consumers, the Highway Loss Data Institute notes that the F-Series Super Duty has risen in popularity among thieves. Based on its new study, the four-wheel drive crew cab F-250 Super Duty has topped the list for the country's highest rate of insurance theft claims, knocking the Cadillac Escalade from the top spot - a distinction the luxury SUV has held since this annual report was first established in 2003.
To reach its findings, HLDI looks at theft data from the previous three model years (in this case 2010-2012) to determine the frequency of claims for a particular make and mode,l as well as the average payment per claim. As the report points out, the claims aren't always for the theft of the entire vehicle - they can include components (say, wheels and tires) or property taken from the vehicle. At seven claims per 1,000 insured vehicles, the F-250 is six times more likely to suffer a theft claim than the average vehicle.
The Cadillac likely dropped from the top of the list to sixth due to additional theft-prevention features including a steering wheel lock and inclination sensor for the alarm, but GM's other fullsize trucks and SUVs still occupy eight of the list's 10 spots. Some of the least stolen vehicles with below-average loss payments include the Lexus HS250h, Hyundai Tucson, Honda CR-V and Dodge Journey. Head on over to the HLDI's website for the full list that shows the most and least popular vehicles among thieves from 2010 through 2012.
