See ad in pics. Some rust on hard top. Looks like shotgun buck shot above driver door and bondo on the outside needs repair. Driver side front corner of hard top has a broken seam, see pics. Driver door window broken ($60), and window frame weld broken where it meets the door. See pics. A new bolt in style window frame is $130. Some rust, not rot, around brake mount on firewall and on inner fender on pass side. Small oil and tranny leak, just gaskets from sitting. Small dent and chipped paint on tailgate from pulling a stump. Air/fuel mix is off. It just needs someone with tlc to do it. Power steering hoses leak and it will squeak when turned while not rolling. Steering box has play. The tires are 35/12.5x15. And are probably 10 years old. They still hold air fine and are fine for driving around town but are out of round from sitting and wiggle at hwy speed. They can't be balanced because they are out of round. It also has the 1969 inverted y tie rod set up with a 1977 Dana 44 disk brake up front and a 1979 Ford 9 inch in the rear. Manual brakes. There is no thermostat or radiator overflow. Antifreeze will come out the overflow hose, no overflow, but it never overheats. All the little things I've been meaning to do. I have a soft top but it should be replaced. I have soft door inserts, installed once, and soft doors, frames and canvas, never installed. A back seat in good shape, bottom of seat frame is bent from a "husky" friend of mine and some 4 wheeling. I also have the aux. Gas tank and filler neck. Stock tire carrier. Spare lift gate. And vinyl carpet kit with padding and molding, never installed. The truck has been used, not abused. It's a solid truck. Some light scratches and a cracked passenger side rear fender flare from some tight trails. It hasn't been wheeling or in the snow in atleast 6 yrs. It is pretty much the same as I bought it. It's an Ohio truck I bought 12 years or so ago. Stored outside, but in a carport which goes with it if you want it. I've tried to be as honest as possible. Not trying to get a fortune either. The Bronco just needs someone to use it. E mail me any questions. If you want to talk include your phone number. Thanks. It just kills me to see it sit. I just have no time to give it love. Needs a good home. With miminal work this is an awesome truck, I just don't have the time. ************ $500 Non refundable due 48 hrs from auction close. PayPal only.

Ford and GM link bonus checks to quality scores
Tue, 29 Apr 2014The 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.
Ford F-150 King Ranch celebrates 'history and authenticity' for 2015 [w/video]
Tue, 04 Mar 2014What's life like on an authentic Texas ranch? We honestly have no idea, having never lived on such a ranch, but we imagine it requires lots of hard work, grit and determination to keep all 825,000 acres - that's larger than the state of Rhode Island - of the King Ranch in Texas under control. Indeed, a total of 350 vehicles, all of which come from Ford, we're told, are currently in use by the ranch. No wonder, then, that the collaboration between Ford and King Ranch has lasted for 15 successful years.
For 2015, in celebration of that 15th anniversary, Ford is debuting three new King Ranch models today at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. The most significant is the 2015 F-150 King Ranch, which, naturally, will add unique interior and exterior bits and pieces to the new aluminum-intensive F-Series pickup. Color choices will consist of Caribou, Bronze Fire, Guard and Ruby Red Metallic Clearcoat, with a range of two-tones to go along with a monochromatic scheme in Caribou. Inside, a bespoke King Ranch interior will be swathed in Premium Mesa Brown leather.
Joining the F-150 King Ranch on dealership floors later this year will be 2015 King Ranch editions of the Super Duty pickup and Expedition fullsize SUV, all of which will offer similar levels of content. Scroll down for more details and two videos from Ford, and be sure to check out the high-res image gallery above, which was shot by the official State Photographer of Texas, Wyman Meinzer.
Focus STs for SEMA include Lotus and Gulf liveries, rally-fied police car
Tue, 22 Oct 2013Ford, as we mentioned on Saturday, is pulling out all the stops for November's SEMA show, bringing 57 vehicles to the Las Vegas event. Ford will be staggering the release of its SEMA flotilla, though, so expect to hear a lot about the new additions to the fleet in the weeks to come. We already showed you the Fiesta, Fiesta ST and Mustang models that made up the first batch of SEMA cars. Next up, we have a quartet of modded Focus STs joining Ford's SEMA roster.
Our first Focus ST (pictured above) sports the legendary livery of Gulf Racing. The orange-on-blue scheme, which Ford helped make famous at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, has been updated for 2013, with a more vibrant blue. This ST was built by Universal Technical Institute, while the exterior was done by Neil Tjin of Tjin Edition. Side exhausts, a Vortech supercharger and a Motiv Concepts high-flow cat allow the ST to breathe a bit easier, while Forgestar wheels contrast well with the iconic paint scheme.
Focus ST number two has been done-up by PM Lifestyle and is inspired by "Southern California car culture." Sporting a sleek, pale blue paint job, there's also no shortage of carbon fiber on the car's exterior. The 2.0-liter, turbocharged, four-cylinder engine has been massaged by the likes of Banks Power, COBB Tuning and Ford Racing, while the suspension is wearing a shiny, new set of coilovers and sway bars. The meaty brakes, tucked behind 19-inch, Rotiform wheels, come from Wilwood, while the cabin has been fitted with a pair of Sparco Chrono seats and five-point, Schroth harnesses.
