 1974 Ford Bronco 4X4 Ranger

This Bronco is claimed to be a one family owned vehicle that has spent almost it's entire life in northern Arizona. It was purchased new as a motor home tow-behind and was used for that purpose from new until 2011. It then went to Southern California where it had a carburetor fire in mid 2012 and was brought back to Arizona at that time. After repairing the wiring that was damaged and replacing the carburetor the vehicle is a runner-driver again. Much of the under hood plastic was damaged or deformed by the carb fire. An original 302 V8 with automatic vehicle with part time 4 wheel drive with warn hubs, the engine runs well- no ticking or knocking- and the trans shifts tight and smooth. It does leak oil. The transfer case and hubs seem to work well and both axles appear to be in good shape. The body is original and uncut with some dents and possible partial paint work in different areas- most notable being the right front fender damage. Most of the paint and trim appear to be original and the top does not look like it ever came off the vehicle. It has the Explorer option with chrome bumpers and trim as well as power steering, but no power brakes. It looks to have the original interior- with original rear seat- that needs to be redone, and it will need the windshield replaced.

The only rust indicated is minor bubbling on the inner wheel housings under the hood on both sides and the under hood vent intake on passenger's side (see pics). Floors, rockers-virtually everything else looks to be rust free. All in all, a great original example for a restoration or just shape up what is here and use it as an original.

The vehicle is listed for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. It is also available for inspection locally in Phoenix, Arizona. Please contact me to schedule an inspection or if you need any additional pictures or information.

Thanks for looking, and happy bidding!

Alan Mulally talks about why Ford's Falcon had to die

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

When Ford made the decision to end production of the Falcon sedan and Territory CUV in Australia, it wasn't a popular move Down Under. The large, four-door Falcon had been in production for 50 years, and while Ford has reaffirmed its commitment to the Australian market, it's understandable that some people still aren't all that crazy about the Blue Oval's decision.
Speaking to CEO Alan Mulally after Ford's Go Further event in Sydney, Australian site Go Auto reports that the decision was not one made lightly, and that the automaker is doing everything possible to respect the Falcon and Territory's "stakeholders." It's an interesting piece that shows a softer side of a corporation, while demonstrating that Ford is doing everything in its power to make the end of production as smooth as possible for all parties.
Head over to Go Auto for the full series of remarks from Mulally, and then let us know what you think of Ford's handling of the Falcon and Territory discontinuations, in Comments.
