Please message me with questions at: tulis87@zoho.com .
This is a 1971 Ford Bronco Sport that has been garage kept and is great shape with a dry history living in Las Vegas Nevada for 43 years. I am the 3rd owner and have been continuing the restoration process here and there since I have owned it. I wanted to keep the original look of this Bronco so I upgraded some things that were better than stock. It now has two new fuel tanks w/ sending units, both tank straps, fuel filler hose, fuel pump, plugs, wiring, oil pressure sender, Silicone heater hose kit, coolant recovery bottle w/ stainless holder Edelbrock air cleaner w/ chrome covers, battery, pigtail voltage regulator, alternator harness, battery terminals, Warn cables, battery tray w/ holder, Amsoil high performance 10/40 synthetic motor oil w/Amsoil 25,000 mile oil filter, fuel lines with a new tuned Holley 570 avenger 4 barrel carb. Ethanol dissolves metal and creates a bunch of issues when is sits for a period of time.
The next part that I wanted to tackle was the Clutch and Drive Train which included new 11 inch Luk clutch, pressure plate, bolt kit, new fly wheel, roller pilot bearing, stainless (adjustable) push rod, clutch rod (metal) bushings that do not bind, new complete rear drive shaft, new transfer case yolk, new 304 stainless twin stick transfer case shifters for T type model 20 transfer case (works better than stock), new transfer case seals, 2 new turbo mufflers, fresh gear oil replacement, 8 new JBG shocks w/red shock boots, BDS steering stabilizer, new front brakes, front hubs repacked, 5 stock rims stripped and then powder coated, 4 like new hub caps, new chrome lugs and 4 new Bridgestone 30x9.50x15 A/T Duelers less 1000 miles and front end alignment about 200 miles ago
Now I will get into some of the cosmetics that were done along the way which include newly recovered front and rear seat w/ new foam buns for the 2 front seats, rebuilt Unity spot light (new hand assembly), 6 new LED bulbs in dash instruments, new LED tag bulb, new dash brake light, new front seat belts (Air craft quality), new grill badges, stainless license plate frame, (kept original), 2 Billet aluminum fuel caps, (kept originals), stainless tailgate handle assembly w/ gaskets, (kept original), stainless jack strap, (kept original), stainless hood safety latch w/bolts, front and rear show quality stock bumpers w/stainless bumper bolts, park and tail light gaskets, used heater intake hose, powder coated tire carrier & tire mount, stainless carrier plate w/wingnut & latch guard, stainless carrier latch guard loop, poly turn signal bases, new passenger side mirror w/ gaskets, hood adjusting bumpers.

Ford to auction Mustang Cobra Jet prototype for charity [w/video]
Mon, 16 Sep 2013Prototypes developed by major automakers typically remain in said company's custody, but every once in a while, one trickles out into private hands. And that's just what we have here. Ford is donating a one-of-a-kind factory prototype for the 2014 Mustang Cobra Jet that will be auctioned off later this month by Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
Powered by a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 mated to a T4 competition gearbox, this rare Cobra Jet prototype includes a wheelie bar, chromoly roll cage, Weld wheels, three-link rear suspension, racing brakes, 9-inch rear axle and more. It's painted in a unique satin orange with reflective gray striping scheme, bears the serial number 2014 BJMS CJXX1 and is fully ready for NHRA competition on the drag strip.
To be offered with no reserve on Saturday, September 28, 2013, the Cobra Jet prototype's winning bidder will also receive tutelage at Roy Hill's Drag Racing School in Sophia, NC, along with tours of the Ford Product Development Center, Ford Racing headquarters and Ford Design Studios with Mustang chief engineer Dave Pericak. Scope out the video and details below for what could be the ultimate Mustang experience for a good cause.
Ford blimp crashes inside Portland Trail Blazers arena
Fri, Dec 5 2014Portland basketball fans got a free, very safe recreation of the Hindenburg disaster when a Ford airship crashed into the stands during a game between the Trail Blazers and Indiana Pacers. Reportedly no one was hurt, but arena staff trying to push the inflatable vehicle through a hole it was too big for, made for some fantastic video and photos. This content is hosted by a third party.

Ford investing $500M in engine plant for 2.7L EcoBoost production
Sun, 30 Mar 2014Ohio is a hot area for Ford at the moment with the announcement just a few weeks ago that production of the next-generation F-650/F-750 medium-duty trucks would move from Mexico to the Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Now, Ford is investing $500 million to hire 300 workers at its Lima Engine Plant in Lima, Ohio, to add production of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 for the 2015 F-150.
The latest investment will be used to add a new flexible engine assembly system and renovate 700,000 square feet of the plant for machining and assembly areas. The Lima factory already builds Ford's 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter Duratec V6 engines. The plant opened in 1957, and it's on track to build its 40 millionth engine later this year.
Ford claims that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost will offer V8 performance with better efficiency in the F-150. It comes standard with intelligent stop/start that doesn't activate when the truck is towing or in four-wheel drive, and it's made from a combination of compacted graphite iron and aluminum for low weight and high strength. The company says that V6 engines have already proven popular in the F-150 with 57 percent of trucks in 2014 being equipped with either the naturally aspirated 3.7-liter or turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines.
