Another great Bronco brought to you by Velocity Restorations. This 1974 Ford Bronco Sport just had a frame up restoration completed in our shop. We bought this Bronco out of Oklahoma. It was sitting in a show room for the last 18 years. We only had to replace one floor pan to make this a great rust free Bronco. After receiving the Bronco we stripped the body down, applied high build primer, PPG sunburst copper paint, 4 coats of high solids clear, and finished up with a 1500/2500 wet sand cut and buff. Paint has great clarity and depth. Tailgate, hood, doors, grill, and hard top were completely removed and painted off the truck to obtain the best finish possible. Body is dressed with full body chrome molding and chrome light bezels. Frame was sanded with 320 grit and sprayed with an epoxy semi gloss frame paint. Undercarriage was coated with Raptor underlining for years of preservation. We went through the power brake system from front to rear, replacing lines, wheel cylinders, and shoes. Tie rod boots, body bushings, shocks, steering stabilizer were all replaced with high quality parts. We went through the axles and drive shafts replacing all bushings, seals, and u-joints as necessary. Bronco is riding on 4 practically new 31/10.50/15 Bridgestone Dueller A/T's. The interior we kept as stock as possible only replacing what was necessary for functionality. All lights, gauges, fuel tanks, wipers, etc work as they should. We added a roll bar and weather proof media player. We kept the original seats and door panels to maintain the originality of the truck. Interior was sanded down and Raptor undercoating was applied for protection and weather proofing. The transmission and transfer case were rebuilt. Compression on engine was checked and ranged from 147-152# with 55-60 lbs of oil pressure. Under the hood we installed new Endurashine Edelbrock intake, 600 cfm carburetor, valve covers, electronic distributor, and chrome brake booster. We have been over this truck from front to rear and stand behind our product. Check out our feedback and realize from our past customers we build a great product and have several happy buyers. Most of our auctions end early due to our prices being realistic. We are offering a vintage air professionally installed AC system with the buy it now price being met on this auction. Any offers will be entertained prior to auction ending. AS usual we offer availability for any inspections of vehicle prior to auction ending. Bronco is being sold as-is where-is with no warranty implied. Please do not hesitate to contact us anytime with questions.

Ford acquires Livio to bolster connectivity biz

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

Ford Motor Company has announced the acquisition of Livio, a Ferndale, MI-based software development company best known for aftermarket in-car connectivity devices, but also as a supplier of technology for proprietary systems for automakers. Livio, co-founded by Sigal and Massimo Baldini, will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Ford Global Technologies.
"With the additional expertise Livio provides us, Ford intends to continue to lead the next generation of in-car connectivity with technology advancements that give consumers more options to access their devices on the go," said Paul Mascarenas, chief technical officer and vice president, Ford Research and Innovation, in a statement.
Ford is clearly trying to beef up its in-house tech capability around telematics and device connectivity. While the Blue Oval has been a leader in these areas with SYNC and MyFord Touch in terms of getting the systems into as many cars as possible, the execution of the applications have been criticized for glitches.

Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating

Mon, Aug 6 2018

Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.

Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor to get 365-hp EcoBoost option

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

Speeders beware, the police are going to be getting quite a bit faster. Ford has just announced that it will be offering its 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged, EcoBoost V6 in the Explorer Police Interceptor. The new engine will be joining the existing 3.7-liter V6. The 365-horsepower, 350-pound-foot mill should be familiar to consumers as the powerplant that's found in the Ford Taurus SHO (and its LEO equivalent, the Taurus Police Interceptor) and the Ford Explorer Sport. It should also provide quite a kick in the pants to officers used to the naturally aspirated 3.7 and its 304 ponies and 279 pound-feet of torque.
The move to the more potent powerplant was born out of all the equipment officers need to carry on a day-to-day basis. These days, there's so much stuff that police need on a regular basis, that there's a genuine market for a faster Police Interceptor Utility, as it's known officially. The Explorer-based cruiser has already accounted for 68 percent of Ford's LEO sales in 2013, and that's with just the 3.7, and we'd only expect that number to increase once the twin-turbo, 3.5-liter V6 is available. Ford won't offer up any indication of what the take rate will be on the new engine, but we're guessing it'll be fairly high.
The success of the Explorer PI couldn't have come at a better time for Ford. The decision to end Crown Victoria production was not a popular one with police, and combined with Chevrolet and Dodge diving into the LEO market feet first, Ford hasn't been performing as well as it's wanted to. The Explorer has been helping it turn around, though. And with the inclusion of the EcoBoost, Ford also has a legit competitor for the Chevrolet Tahoe on the big utility side of the police market.
