1970 Bronco on 2040-cars
Bridgehampton, New York, United States
|
Hello, up for sale is an incredible fully rebuilt 1970 Ford Bronco with an off frame restoration including all brand new parts with Ford F-150 transmission and engine, raised suspension, drive train, electrical system, wheels, brakes, tires, large gas tank, custom 1952 Ford Blue paint job with detailed hood and doors. Virtually everything was replaced or restored. This truck is also equipped with an electric wench, kill switch, auxiliary electric fan, spare tire and large wheels with bubble tires. I purchased the truck five years ago from an American Airline mechanic who built it from the ground up. This was his third Ford Bronco and was forced to sell it due to college tuition. He gave me over $35,000 dollars in receipts for the restoration. The truck has under 25,000 miles which is artificially high due to the large wheels. There are no dents but there is body rust some minor scratches by the spare and under the black interior coating as seen in THE PICTURES full disclosure, we are selling the truck as I purchased it, As Is. I am sure a body shop can remove it easily and I always felt it gave the Bronco some character. The truck starts right up every time and has fuel injection. This Bronco can handle almost any terrain and designed to be a rock crawler, however we used it to go back and from the beach. It is a four speed manual transmission with a separate stick for putting it into four wheel drive. There is a special system to ease the brakes but I never used it. There is a tachometer mounted to the steering wheel and a fire extinguisher that looks cool, but never used. This truck turns head whenever I drive it and many people have tried to buy it over the years. Currently in our summer home in Bridgehampton, NY if you want to see it in person Please message for all offers and questions. Will respond quickly and do not hesitate for anything. Every offer will be considered. Buyer pays shipping. Happy Bidding! **For international inquires please contact me. (502) 565-2185 please text before calling. On Apr-15-14 at 14:33:09 PDT, seller added the following information: Just thought I'd drop you a note in case you wanted to post it for everyone to see. I know that Bronco very well. Even though it was not "built" by the previous owner, it was from Tulsa, Ok. Darrel Lewis built the truck originally and sold it to the PO. Darrel built the motor (stout 351W), which has a Howell fuel injection system on it, built and installed the NP435 and much more. From there, Gordon Bailie, owner of Bailie Bilt (well known builder/fabricator in Tulsa, Ok) built the roll bar, bumpers, tire carrier, ram assist, heim steering, paint and body work and many many other things. The truck has a NP435 4-speed manual transmission in it. |

Honda giving away free Civics in Forza Horizon to celebrate launch
Wed, 16 Jan 2013Just a friendly reminder from Honda: The Honda Challenge Pack DLC is now available for Forza Horizon. To reward you for the trouble of pressing a few buttons on your Xbox controller, you'll get the 2013 Honda Civic Coupe, an HPD Rally Fit and a 1986 Honda Civic Si Coupe in your garage, and you'll get them free. The event of the new DLC has also kicked off a photo contest that will reward someone with an Xbox 360 console wrapped in a Honda Civic Si theme.
Otherwise, the word "Challenge" keeps coming up because of the chance to run an online race against IndyCar driver Scott Dixon. The track for that digital throwdown has already been decided by Xbox players who voted before January 8. Yet it's not too late to hop into the Honda section in Xbox Live and lay down a time fast enough for a shot at the title "The Driver That Shellacked Scott Dixon," and meeting the man in person.
Check out the press release from Honda below, and the sweetness that is the 1986 Civic Si in the gallery above.
Ford F-150 EcoBoost in NHTSA probe for acceleration issue
Tue, 28 May 2013According to Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching a probe into 400,000 Ford F-150 models over possible acceleration problems. According to the article, NHTSA has received 95 reports "alleging incidents of reduced engine power during hard accelerations" on 2011 to 2013 F-150 models equipped with the company's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine.
Automotive News reports that Ford has issued three technical service bulletins "related to intermittent stumble/misfire on acceleration from highway cruise in humid or damp conditions," according to the government agency's documents. About one third of the 95 reports NHTSA has received cited humid or rainy conditions when these problems allegedly occurred.
These technical service bulletins have allowed dealers to address a "condition related to moisture accumulation in the charge air cooler during extended highway cruising at constant throttle in humid or damp conditions," AN reports, citing NHTSA documents. Furthermore, the TSB outlines details for "reprogramming the powertrain control module with the latest calibration and installing a new CAC and air deflector plate."
MyFord Touch getting buttons and knobs back to counter criticisms
Mon, 17 Jun 2013Ford deserves credit for being a front-runner in offering advanced infotainment technology with its Sync and MyFord Touch systems, but continued consumer complaints over its confusing touchscreen interface and capacitive controls has made the automaker relent. The Wall Street Journal reports that physical buttons and knobs for controlling tuning and volume will be coming back to Ford vehicles equipped with the controversial infotainment system.
The 2013 F-150 with MyFord Touch gives us a glimpse of what the new layout with buttons and knobs might look like, as Ford says a similar balance of touch screen capability and buttons/knobs are what's being planned for future models. And, while capacitive controls have no fans in the halls of Autoblog, many of Ford's models with MyFord Touch do have a large physical knob for adjusting volume with integrated buttons for tuning and advancing tracks, though most of those are models with the optional upgraded Sony Audio system. Lincoln models with MyLincoln Touch, however, feature only capacitive controls for all stereo and climate functions.
Despite receiving enough complaints to throw buttons and knobs back into the mix (a move that reminds us of BMW's iDrive trajectory, among others), Ford reports that Sync and MyFord Touch have still been sold on 79 percent of its 2013 model year vehicles, a number it claims is double the rate that Honda and Toyota are getting for their infotainment systems. Ford also states that owners who do opt for the duo of technologies are more satisfied with overall vehicle quality than those who don't have it.
