1972 Ford Bronco--Restored-- Equipped with Power Disk Brakes, Power Steering, 3 Speed Manual Transmission, Hard Doors and Hard Top. This Bronco was taken down completely and built from the ground up. We spared no expense and built this Bronco to last. The 302 motor was completely rebuilt and bored .30 over, with picture documentation. It has all new pistons, bearings, seals, gaskets, oil pump, fuel pump, water pump, chrome alternator, thermostat, custom aluminum hoses, radiator fan, aluminum radiator, new Edelbrock chrome intake, Edelbrock 4 barrell chrome carburetor, chrome brake booster and master cylinder, new overflow and the list goes on. The engine compartment was base coated and clear coated with the engine out with PPG paint and the underside of the Bronco was sprayed with a undercoating for preservation. The Transmission while it was out was completely gone through checked out and reassembled with new gaskets and fluid and the three speed shifter moved from the column to a Hurst floor shift. We had a brand new exhaust system installed with 40 Series FlowMaster exhaust by a local muffler shop. Both axles were completely taken out taken apart sandblasted down treated with Ospho primed and painted with high end paint. The front axle while apart we replaced seals, bushings, fluid, inner axle u-joints, drag arm bushings and new brake pads and calipers. The real axle has new seals, brake shoes and fluid. We ran all new brake lines with proportioning valve over the whole truck. The frame of the truck was sanded down with 100 grit, 200 grit and then finished with 300 grit sandpaper before we sparyed it with a 3M Under Paint for preservation. We installed all new body bushings, bolts, lock washers and nuts. It has a brand new 3 1/2 inch suspension lift with all new powder coated parts and Grade 8 bolts. Brand new shocks, steering stabilizer and boots. We had the radius arms sandblasted down then powder coated Bahama Blue and reinstalled with all new c-busings and radius bushings. We ordered new pre-runner bumpers, we had them powder coated and installed with new KC lights. We installed both bumpers with Grade 8 bolts and did not weld them in the case they ever had to be removed you were not cutting them or the frame off. We have almost Brand New Dynapro Hankook 35x12.50x15 tires sitting on brand new 15x10 Ion Alloy Wheels that were static balanced with only inner weights installed. The inside of the Bronco was sanded down any metal that needed to be replaced was replaced, then it was sprayed with Ospho then Rhino Lined for preservation and durability. The front and rear seats are original Bronco seats that we had re-cushioned and re-upholstered by a local custom upholstery shop. We also had them recover the dash pad with a high end very durable leather that just stands out and looks phenomenal. The dash was completely taken apart and painted Wimbledon White out of the vehicle then reinstalled. We do not tape the dash off and paint it as the finish product is half baked and unprofessional. We installed a new aftermarket RPM, oil pressure, voltage and temperature guages as the old ones tend to not be as reliable. All the gauges are back lit blue at night. We removed the old broken original steering wheel and installed a new Grant chrome and black steering wheel. The doors were taken apart and the panels were painted Wimbledon White and doors put together with all new door handles inside and out, new armrest, new mirrors, new door cups, new door hinges and bolts. Stainless and grade 8 bolts were used wherever possible. All new complete weather seals were installed around the doors and inside the door window tracks and under the hard top. We also had the front windshield and gasket replaced. The outside of the truck was completely sanded down to bare metal, any and all rust was treated and fixed. We then primed the body and re-seam sealed all the seams on the truck and completely smoothed out body to above original factory standards and then painted it Bahama Blue using PPG paint. Then the body was wet sanded from 1,000 grit to 2,000 grit then to 3,000 grit sandpaper then high speed buffed and polished to a beautiful finish. Their were (4) coats of clear coat put on this truck. The hard top was taken off sanded down prepped and treated for any rust, and painted Wimbledon White using PPG paint and wet sanded out to 2,000 grit sandpaper and then high speed buffed. The paint job on this truck took almost two months from start to finish, this includes body work, all paint was allowed to fully cure before the next step was done so we could get the best and long lasting paint job possible. This truck is one of a kind and was very meticulously taken down and put together. Their are many more parts that were put on and more things that were done to this bronco that I can not put them all in the listing. We have pictures of this bronco taken down and put back together so you will see that we are not claiming anything that has not been done to this truck. We will put a few pictures in the listing but can send more upon request. We build these Broncos as a personal hobby and enjoy doing them. We try to offer a top notch truck that is turn key ready to go with NOTHING that you will have to do to it but enjoy it. We welcome anybody, inspector or inspection company to come look at this Bronco before the auction ends as you will see just how much has been put into this Bronco. This Bronco is offered AS-IS and a nonrefundable deposit of $1,000 due within 24 hrs of auction end. Look at my feedback and how long I have been on Ebay and bid with confidence. If you have been looking for a mint condition Bronco this is the one for you. All realistic offers will be considered, but this bronco is priced right for the quality of the build. If you have any question do not hesitate to ask.

Ford reveals concept trucks that ultimately became Atlas
Wed, 03 Apr 2013The Ford Atlas Concept was one of the quiet success stories of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and now Ford has given us a quick glimpse as to how that creation came to be. Designers actually combined two early sketches to build the Atlas. One, called the Bullet Train, is a futuristic, aerodynamic creation, while the other, aptly named the Locomotive, features the squared off proportions we're familiar with.
Once designers settled on the truck's proportions, they began nailing down exactly which attributes they wanted the final design to have. The Concept's notched windshield originated as a forked glass roof that seamlessly transitioned into the windscreen.
Likewise, designers wanted to fit the truck's tailgate with a storage compartment for tools and a first aid kit, but settled on the dual-purpose step/cargo cradle. Interestingly enough, the concept's active aero shutter wheels actually originated in some of the earliest sketches. Check out the photos and slides here for a closer look.
GM readying aluminum-body fullsize pickups
Wed, 19 Feb 2014Ford's extensive use of aluminum in its 2015 F-150 is a big deal. A really big deal. Big enough, in fact, that General Motors is reportedly changing its fullsize pickup strategy. According to The Wall Street Journal, The General has locked in partnerships with Alcoa Inc. and Novelis Inc. - companies that will supply aluminum for the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks.
"Ford's introduction of the 2015 F-150 pickup truck was a game changer, and it's the first, not the last, conversion of this type," Novelis spokesperson Charles Belbin told the Journal. The switch to aluminum has allowed Ford to shave roughly 700 pounds off its fullsize truck's curb weight. And while official mileage ratings have not been announced, the weight loss should go a long way for improving efficiency, especially when combined other efficiency-minded improvements including better aerodynamics and new, turbocharged V6 engines.
Of course, aluminum-bodied cars are nothing new. But extensive use of aluminum in a major, best-selling product like the Ford F-150 is expected to kick off widespread use of this weight-saving material as availability rises and cost decreases. The WSJ reports that GM had originally explored the idea of moving to aluminum pickups back in 2008, but abandoned the idea due to cost concerns amid economic woes.
Ford taken to task by gov't for Chicken Tax end-around
Mon, 23 Sep 2013Ford is in a bit of a pickle for importing and selling Turkey-built Transit Connect cargo vans as passenger vehicles in the US, then converting them to commercial-vehicle specification stateside in an effort to bypass a 25-percent tax imposed on vehicles imported for commercial use. Automakers are required to pay a 2.5-percent tax on imported passenger vehicles.
The Blue Oval got into trouble for this in a January ruling in which U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials asked Ford to stop the practice of importing the Transit Connect vehicles with passenger seats, then removing and shredding them. Now Automotive News reports that Ford is appealing the ruling. The 25-percent "Chicken Tax," as the tariff is often called, is 50 years old and was enacted as a response to a German tariff on chickens. Like Ford, Chrysler bypasses the higher tariff, but it does so in a different manner. It partially disassembles Sprinter cargo vans before shipping them to the US, then rebuilds them at a plant in South Carolina.
But the ruling against Ford's strategy states that it "serves no manufacturing or commercial purpose" and is there to "manipulate the tariff schedule," Automotive News reports. As Ford's appeal goes through, it is importing the Transit Connect and paying the higher tax, hoping for a favorable outcome and planning to build the next-generation Transit Connect, which it plans to launch before the end of the year, in Spain.
