This is a 1971 Stroppe prepared Baja Bronco. This Bronco is number 6 on the Baja Bronco registry. It has a deluxe Marti report. I have driven this Bronco from California to the state of Washington to Mississippi. I drove it to the Bronco meet in Townsend, Tennessee. In other words I go where I want to in it. The paint is driver quality and although nice it does have some minor rock chips and such from driving. Its been on trails around Moab and over several of the high passes in Colorado including Black Bear, Imogene and Engineers. As I said, its a driver.
So, why am I selling. Its at a point where I've got to have air conditioning. Simple as that. Installing AC is not my first choice. So I thought I would try to sell it and if that doesn't work then I'll bite the bullet and install AC. I would consider a trade but ONLY for a really NICE 72 - 77, air conditioned, automatic Bronco. If its got rust or had major panels replaced, not interested.
Now for the details. This is a nice rust free March/1971 Bronco. I picked it up from Andrew Norton in Saratoga, CA last year. As best we can tell, this Bronco was never abused, neglected or left to sit for extended periods of time. It still has the original interior in it except for the dash pad and floor mat. It has extra insulation on the firewall and floors. All the glass is good. As I stated, the paint is good not show quality but great for a driver. The front edges of the front fenders were trimmed at some time to clear larger wheels and tires. All gauges, signal lights, horn, and tanks work as they should. Heater, defroster and windshield wipers all function properly. The steering wheel is the original Stroppe rubber wheel, not pristine, but still the original one.
The engine and trans have been freshened up, it has power steering and power disc brakes on the front. 9" rear and dana 44 front with 4.10 gears and locking hubs. The tires and wheels are new with less than 10000 miles on them. It has a new carb on it. H4 lights with aftermarket harness upgrade. New centech wiring harness.
I could go on and on, but if you're looking at this ad, you probably already know what you're looking at. This is not one of those BS ads about a Baja Bronco you see on here every so often. This is a good solid serviceable Bronco, you'll be proud to own and drive.
I encourage questions since this is a high end purchase. I can be reached through eBay messaging or you can text or call 662-three six four-3368 most anytime since I'm retired.
If you have zero feedback, don't waste my time. It never works out. If you don't have the cash, don't waste my time. $2000 non-refundable deposit within 48 hours of end of sale through Paypal, rest in cash at pickup unless prior arrangements are made.
Thanks for your time

NHTSA investigating Ford Fiesta for faulty door latches
Mon, 15 Sep 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary investigation on the 2011-2013 Ford Fiesta because the regulator has received 61 complaints from drivers, including one claim of an injury, about the doors on the subcompacts failing to latch and sometimes even flying open while driving. NHTSA has estimated that the problem could affect as many as 205,000 vehicles.
NHTSA is still gathering further data about the problem, but looking at the complaints so far, both front and rear doors appear to be potentially involved with the alleged failures. Among the reports, there are 12 claiming that the door opened while driving. Several also indicate the "Door Ajar" warning illuminating during this problem. The one purported injury happened when someone attempted to shut the door, and it bounced back.
Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker told Autoblog via email, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the report from NHTSA.
2015 Ford F-150 configurator is ready to go to work
Thu, 25 Sep 2014Ford is inching towards the on-sale date for the eagerly anticipated, aluminum F-150 pickup. While we're preparing to drive the new truck (expect our take on it sooner rather than later), the best-seller has reached another, albeit more minor, milestone as its online configurator has officially been switched on.
We took to Ford's consumer website to mess about with it and see just how ridiculous of a truck we can build. Among the fun things we discovered were these two nuggets - the most expensive truck we could configure was not the top-end Platinum model, but instead the King Ranch, which rang up at $65,955. The other exciting discovery? The new truck would be available in a questionable shade called Blue Jeans (shown above with the optional contrasting Caribou paint). Yep, Blue Jeans.
You can head over to Ford's consumer page and build your very own aluminum F-150 now. Take a look.
Watch Tanner Foust hustle the Fiesta ST 'round the 'Ring
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The last time we saw Tanner Foust at the Nürburgring he was sloshing an SVT Raptor from kerb to kerb. Sticking with Ford but swapping keys, this time the drift champion and Top Gear USA host goes to the opposite end of the manufacturer's tuner garage and plucks a Fiesta ST for 'Ring duty.
The 179-horsepower front-wheel-driver acquits itself well by the end of the video. But be warned, Foust doesn't set a 'Ring time and it's shot like a commercial... because that's what it is. Still, you can enjoy all two minutes and 31 seconds of it below.
