 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.

Ford recalls Explorer, Flex, Taurus for parking brakes

Wed, Jul 22 2015

Ford announced a recall of nearly 8,000 vehicles spread across a broad range of models for a faulty parking brake, which might not engage fully. The automaker has not received any reports of accidents or injuries resulting from the issue. The recall affects certain examples of the 2015-16 Ford Explorer, the 2015 Taurus, and the 2015 Flex. The 2015 Lincoln MKS and MKT are also included in the campaign. The vehicles in question were assembled at the company's Chicago and Oakville (Ontario) plants from May 4 to May 23. All told, 7,165 of the affected vehicles are estimated to be in the United States, with another 799 in Canada, and a solitary example in Mexico. In order to address the issue, owners are asked to bring the affected vehicles their local dealership, where technicians will inspect the vehicle and where necessary, replace the parking brake control assembly.

Rowan Atkinson crashes at Goodwood Revival

Sun, 14 Sep 2014

To quote Harry Hogge (played by Robert Duvall) in Days of Thunder, "rubbin, son, is racin'." That can mean some unfortunate damage to high-end racing machinery, which may be repaired easily enough in stock car racing, but when it comes to vintage racing, the stakes can be that much higher. And yet incidents do occur, like at this weekend's Goodwood Revival.
Among the many competitors taking part in the retro racing event in England was none other than Rowan Atkinson, the actor perhaps best known for playing Mr. Bean. Driving a classic Ford Falcon Sprint in the Shelby Cup event, Atkinson (pictured above at the 2012 revival) reportedly crashed head-on into another car on track.
According to reports, the two cars up spun out. The driver in between managed to avoid a pile-up, but Atkinson couldn't steer clear and hit the obstructing vehicle. Fortunately Rowan walked away unscathed (and, we imagine, in a humorous manner), but while we don't know how extensive the damage was to the Falcon, it was enough to take it out of the race.

Ford bringing production F-150 to Detroit with Atlas styling and Alcoa blast shields

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

According to a report in Bloomberg, the 2015 Ford F-150 will indeed be showing up at the Detroit Auto Show next month. It will bring attitude with it, not only in the form of sheetmetal inspired by the Atlas concept (pictured) that appeared at the 2013 Detroit show but also in the Alcoa military blast shields among the display being used to showcase the ruggedness of aluminum.
There's been a lot of talk about the F-150 switching to aluminum body panels (although maintaining a steel frame), and for good reason. The lightweight body is expected to shed more than 700 pounds and greatly increase its highway mileage, but production-line issues and possible delays have been a major focus of attention concerning the best-selling vehicle in America for 32 years, meaning Ford has to get it right. F-150 is responsible for a massive portion of the company's global profits and it will come in a year when company profits are already predicted to decline because of new car launches.
When it comes to dings, the Bloomberg story says Ford wants Alcoa to supply some of the military-grade aluminum it uses for blast shields on battlefield vehicles to help it talk up the toughness of aluminum. Reading commentary on the many stories about the F-150 reveals there are many more little questions about the aluminum overhaul, like "How much will it cost to repair and insure?" and "How will companies hang their magnetic signs?" Answers should start coming in a couple of weeks.
