1968 Ford Bronco. Had a frame off restoration around 12 years ago. Truck was stripped to the metal and epoxy primed. 289 V8 with Edelbrock Performer 289 cam, intake, timing chain kit, Edelbrock Performer 500CFM carb. High flow water pump, Be Cool aluminum radiator. C4 Trans and transfer case were rebuilt during the restoration. Has a stock 73 Bronco automatic steering column. The paint is decent but not perfect. There are chips and a few cracks(please see below pics and I will point out the flaws) It has not been driven much since the restoration, but when it has it was mostly off road. The inside floor and bed sides, and the underside of the fenders have been Linexed. All the glass, window tracks, window & door seals, and light lenses have been replaced. Heater box resealed. Rebuilt door hinges. Centec wiring harness, power steering, power front disc brakes, extended braded steel lines between axle and body, 2 1/2" suspension lift with Wild horses 11 pack rear leafs and progressive front springs. Ball joints & u joints, front & rear drive shaft and front axle bushings(suspension &body) are all replaced. Front has 7 degree camber bushings, which put the camber back into factory spec. Ford 9" rear end, Dana 44 front, both were rebuilt during restoration, and had limited slip units installed. Front and rear pre runner style bumpers with Hella lights on front. I believe they came from Tom's. 32" BFG's, American Racing Wheels, Warn hubs, 24 gallon gas tank, satellite radio, runs like a top, and is an absolute beast off road.

Below are pics of the car, and then flaws after that. The red on the diff pumpkin and back of the tank is not rust, it's red mud from Wheeler Geological Area. It's a nice Bronco, but it's not a trailer queen or a concours restoration. It was built to 4 wheel and that's what was done with it. Any question will be routed to my associate handling the sale. The truck has a Colorado title, and is currently in Pasadena California, where an appointment can be set up for a viewing. It is being offered at 32,500 with offers being considered. $1000 deposit required upon commitment to buy, with remainder due before release of vehicle by cash or cashier's check. All cashier's checks will have to be verified as good before release of vehicle.

And now the paint, The drivers door has cracks by the handle and mirror, the hood on the front corners, the left side of the hood just behind the corner, chip on right fender, chip on right door lock, and chip by right tail light.

Ford says C-Max mpg reduction has hurt sales

Tue, 22 Apr 2014

The Ford C-Max is having a rough time. Sales for the five-door hybrid hatchback were down 39.1 percent in March to 2,295 cars, and sales from January through March were down 42.5 percent to 5,566 units. In an interview with The Detroit News, Ford Americas boss Joe Hinrichs places the blame on lowering the model's fuel economy rating.
"We're definitely seeing consideration on C-Max decline over time. We need to reinvest in the product because it's a great car," said Hinrichs to The Detroit News.
The company was hit with bad publicity over the C-Max when owners in multiple states filed class action lawsuits that alleged the cars weren't able to meet the stated fuel economy. Ford eventually re-rated the model from 47 miles per gallon city, highway and combined to 40 mpg city, 45 mpg highway and 43 mpg combined. To soften the blow of the change, the automaker sent checks to the owners to make up some of the difference. Initially, Ford claimed that demand remained strong for the hybrid. However, the latest sales figures and Hinrichs' statement seem to show the opposite.

Ford recalling 2015 Mustang for fuel line leak, 20K Transit Connects for plastic panel

Fri, Dec 5 2014

Ford is recalling 738 examples of the 2015 2015 Mustang with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine – 712 in the US, 16 in Canada. A fuel pressure sensor might have been installed incorrectly on the affected cars, and that could result in a fuel leak. At the time of writing the company hasn't heard any reports of any incidents related to the issue, and parties with affected vehicles can take them to the dealer to have the fuel tube assembly replaced free of charge. The 2014 Transit Connect Cargo Van is also the subject of a safety recall, due to a possible problem with adhesive used on the exterior plastic panel on the sliding doors. There are 19,825 units covered by that recall, which dealers will also repair free of charge. You can find more information on both bulletins in the press releases below. Ford Issues Safety Recall for Certain 2015 Mustang Vehicles in North America for Fuel Pressure Sensor Issue Dec 4, 2014 | DEARBORN, Mich. - Ford is issuing a safety recall for approximately 730 2015 Ford Mustang vehicles in North America (actual 728) for a potential fuel line leak. A fuel pressure sensor, which is part of the fuel supply tube assembly, may have been installed incorrectly, potentially resulting in a pressurized fuel leak. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source may result in a fire. Ford is not aware of any fires, accidents or injuries related to this condition. Affected vehicles include certain 2015 Ford Mustangs equipped with 2.3-liter engines built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant, Sept. 25, 2014 to Oct. 9, 2014.

Facelifted Ford Focus caught testing in the cold

Wed, 18 Dec 2013

It's that time in the life of the Ford Focus to get a little work done - a nip-tuck here, some Botox there. Yes, Ford is testing a facelifted version of its global C-segment entry, which first hit markets in Europe and North America in May 2011.
Like the touchup on the Fiesta, expect Ford's gaping grille to make its first appearance on the Focus. Our spy photographers point out that this is likely to be a more comprehensive makeover than previous spy shots suggested, based on the additional camouflage seen here on the front and rear ends of this five-door model. New head and taillights are also likely in order, as are changes to the front and rear fascia.
The interior was also snapped and features a cleaner design with a larger central display. Other than that, it looks like some buttons have been changed, making us think most of the Focus' updates are limited to the exterior.
