1969 Ford Bronco 302ci, 3 Speed Standard Transmission, 4x4 on 2040-cars
Jacksonville, Florida, United States
|
Matching numbers original Bronco. Unrestored, uncut. 302 cubic inch V8 with three speed MANUAL column shift transmission (good clutch). Original 139,000 miles. The floors have some rust holes. The driver's floor has an aluminum patch. Three quarters of the original rockers (inner & outer) are still solid/&/in place (enough to build repairs on). Sheet metal has been used in portions of both rockers towards the rear. Most of the inner rockers factory plates are still existing. Quarters are best of all. Both doors open & close as expected; closing tight & flush/alligned. The passenger side will eventually need a pillar section (area where hinges attach); this door drops a little at opening due to lower hinge. The doors themselves are solid(pictures available. All glass is good & wind up door windows both work great. The old plastic sheet tint needs removal sometime. The paint job is a "driver" state of affairs; nowhere near top notch. The rear cabin floor had tape adhesive strips to hold old carpet down. All is removed but some of the tape is still there. Rust in seams was treated with Ospho rust neutralizer & sealer applied. Most lights, speedo, heater fan, 4 ways, etc, work. MECHANICAL NEEDS: Driver wiper motor works, passinger side doesn't. I'm not sure if these are after market since each has a seperate motor. The rear parking lights not working. Left front brake is grabbing. Starts & runs very nice. Throaty muscle 302 sound from the dual exhaust exiting left & right (looks to be stainless; at least tailpipes). No oil smoke/burn or overheating. 4X4 action/locking hubs working correctly.
SOME RECENT NEW PARTS: battery, tires, carburetor kit & radiator. Daily driver.
No alterations or customs

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
Ford reveals automated Fusion Hybrid
Thu, 12 Dec 2013Autonomous cars may still be in their infancy, but more and more big names in the auto industry are diving in head first. Nissan is already making strides with a semi-autonomous Leaf EV and General Motors is planning to offer semi-autonomous tech by 2020. And then there's Google, doing its thing with a fleet of Toyota Prius. Now, Ford is showing off its latest automated effort, a driverless Fusion Hybrid.
Partnering with the University of Michigan (Go Blue!) and State Farm Insurance, the project is part of Ford's Blueprint for Mobility, the company's plan for transportation beyond 2025. "The Ford Fusion Hybrid automated vehicle represents a vital step toward our vision for the future of mobility," Chairman Bill Ford said. "We see a future of connected cars that communicate with each other and the world around them to make driving safer, ease traffic congestion and sustain the environment."
The automated Fusion features four LiDAR infrared sensors that scan the road 2.5 million times every second, using a principle similar to the echolocation used by dolphins or bats. Using the infrared light emitted by the LiDAR, the car can draw a picture of everything within 200 feet to create a map of its surroundings. According to Ford, the sensors are able to tell the difference between a paper bag and a small animal from a football field away.
Ford EcoBoost V6 hits the dyno before hitting the track
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Ford Racing just unveiled the Riley Daytona Prototype that will make its racing in the United SportsCar Racing Championship Rolex 24 at Daytona in January, and now it has released a video showing development of twin-turbo 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 that powers the car. Using the same block and heads that can be found on a production Ford Taurus SHO, this new racecar benefits from the collaboration between Ford Racing and Ford powertrain engineers.
While we still don't know what kind of power this engine is putting out, it has definitely gotten a workout at Ford's 17G dyno. This area deep within Ford allows the automaker's racing program to work hand-in-hand with production engine programs, which can be a benefit to racing operations and production cars alike. Scroll down to hear a few people from Ford talk about the crosspollination between its racing and engine teams and watch the EcoBoost get red hot on the dyno.
