1974 Ford Bronco

351W with GT40 heads, aluminum intake, built 2bbl carb

NV4500 5 speed transmission- center force clutch (crawl super low or drive down the highway at 70+ with 5th gear overdrive - imho the BEST manual transmission for an early bronco).

Chromoly front axles w/super joints

Power Steering ARB air lockers- front and rear axles,

 ARB compressor

Dual shocks on each wheel with hoops

4 Wheel Power Disc Brakes

Aftermarket front and rear -fold&tumble seats with 3 point seat belts

Aftermarket guages

  Later model steering column

Tubular front and rear bumper w/tire carrier in the back and custom Ford logo on ends

Decent paint but DOES have some trail scrapes, bumps and lumps

The actual body has very, very little rust (California car).

Fender flares. Note door frames were cut, removable door frames added.

Currently, the hardtop does have the rare chrome window trim and even harder to find drip rail chrome. May swap the hard top for a new white softop. Not perfect but a nice bronco with aggressive stance and a great look for the trails or the shopping mall. Over 40k spent making this an awesome trail and street rig (take a minute to add up the parts costs). This was built to handle the tough stuff but has been mainly street and easy trail driven.

This is the same family that had this Bronco listed earlier, not someone just reselling. Thanks

Would consider Toyota FJ Cruiser in trade if agreed to prior to action close and ALL EBAY rules and policies are followed.

Ford rethinking vehicle launch strategy

Tue, 07 May 2013

With a new boss at the helm, Ford is looking at new ways to improve its vehicle launches in North America to prevent recent issues that have popped up with models like the Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and Ford Fusion. Speaking with Automotive News, Ford's new president of the Americas, Joe Hinrichs, revealed a few ways the automaker plans to avoid early build issues such as the engine fires on certain 2013 Escape and Fusion models and months-long delays for customers to receive their MKZs.
It sounds like the root of the problems may have been Ford's relationship with suppliers compounded by the fact that the product surge came on the heels of the recent industry-crippling recession, and in the AN article, Hinrichs says improvements are being made to reduce problems during the launch of new or redesigned models. Three such improvements that were implemented during the first quarter of this year including more rigorous quality comparisons, better use of computer technology to catch major problems sooner and hiring engineers to work closer with suppliers.

Sat, 02 Feb 2013

SEMA is more than nine months away, but the reveille bugle for the show has just sounded with Ford's call to aftermarket companies for its project-vehicle program. The 2014 Ford Fiesta ST and 2014 Transit Connect van and wagon are the cars The Blue Oval wants to feature, but applicants can submit project vehicles for any product except the GT500, the Raptor, or anything from Lincoln.
Submissions must be completed in two parts, the first being an email to Ford with an overview of the project, like vehicle theme, promotional plan and location display. The second part must be mailed in on company letterhead and gets down to the nuts and bolts of the vision and the provision of company bona fides. The complete proposal is due on March 1, winners will be notified by May 1. Click the link below to get all the details, and for show attendees, get ready to see some funky Fiestas and wild shaggin' wagons in Las Vegas come November.

Ford Q1 profits dragged down by warranty costs

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

General Motors isn't the only Detroit automaker posting falling profits in the first quarter. Ford just released its Q1 2014 financial data, and it reported a net income of $989 million, down $622 million from Q1 2013. The drop is partially blamed on higher warranty and recall expenses than the company had anticipated.
Financially, Ford suffered a rough quarter almost across the board. Its pre-tax profit of $1.4 billion was also down $765 million from a year ago. Things were even worse in the North American market where operating profit fell significantly to $1.5 billion, down from $2.392 billion in Q1 2013. However, its global revenue ticked up slightly to $35.9 billion, from $35.6 billion in this period in 2013.
Ford admitted that it spent about $900 million on expenses that it hadn't planned for during this quarter. According to Reuters, the company paid about $400 million in additional warranty and recall costs in North America. The automaker didn't explain why the costs were so much higher than expected. However, in the last three months, Ford has had several recalls, including on the 2001-2004 Escape for rust, Explorer for its steering, Edge for its fuel line and others.
