I am reluctantly selling my 1974 Ford Bronco. According to Bronco lovers, my is rare and highly sought after. It's has all original 302 ci 2 barrel carb with power steering. Everything is original down to the plug wires. I did change the spark plugs, oil changed, and cleaned the carb because it was running rough. Now it runs like new again, literally. Don't take me for my word, you'll see. I'm selling the Bronco because I moving my family to California and I'm having to sell off some toys.
This is an original 27,800 mile Ford Bronco, and I am the first and only registered owner, with all the documentation to prove what I claim. This Bronco was used as a Lot truck at Bo Bueckman Ford off of Manchester Rd. in St. Louis until the late 80's. It was used to service and jump used and new cars, run parts, and clear the lot of snow in the winter. The service manager there still recalls the Bronco. The Bronco sat for years on their lot, until it was sold to Suburban Auto in 2004, and finally put up for sale to the guy I bought it from. That guy never paid the Mo State taxes on it and therefore did not register it. I paid the State Taxes and got a clear title through Department of Revenue, and learned I'm the first and only registered owner.
GOOD and BAD.
GOOD:
Everything is there, Everything! except for the original seats. Everything works as it should, turn signals, dash lights, speedo, heater, ECT, ECT, ECT..... The tranny is perfect, the suspension is solid, and the four wheel works great and tight, and the steering is easy. It still has the 1970's equipment that Bo Beuckman Fords put in it to jump the cars on the lot. The snow plow works up and down.
BAD:
It sat so long and was probably never washed. The body is rusted and every panel needs attention, but the frame is solid. I took pics of the body, but I'll be the first to say it's rusty.
This truck is amazing and needless to say a barn find. I won't get the chance to restore it, but the person that gets this I hope will. If you need any more pics or have any questions, please email me. I can make a short video if needed to make the deal.
Keywords: 4x4, four wheel drive, survivor, project.

Pony-car sales war: Mustang vs. Camaro vs. Challenger [UPDATE]
Fri, Jul 3 2015Update: An earlier version of this story misstated the 2015 Mustang's weight when compared with previous models. Additionally, we have added comments from Chevrolet in the text. The Ford Mustang has blown past the Chevy Camaro as America's best-selling pony car, and in June, it wasn't even close. The 'Stang outsold the Camaro 11,719 to 8,611 cars. The Camaro remained ahead of the Dodge Challenger, which sold 6,845 units. Even though the Camaro did post an 11.5-percent sales improvement in June, the competition is arguably stronger than at anytime since the 1970s muscle-car era. The Mustang's sales leapt a whopping 53.6 percent, while the Challenger saw a gain of 56 percent. Several factors are weighing down Camaro sales, including its lame duck status. Chevy is launching a new generation of the Camaro this year that's more than 200 pounds lighter, offers a new turbo four-cylinder engine option, and has a nicer interior than the outgoing model. Put simply: wait a few months and you can get a better car. It's also unlikely Chevy will jack up the price much, as it's historically kept the Camaro within reach of everyday enthusiasts. While Chevy fans wait in anticipation for their new sports car, Ford and Dodge have downshifted. The new Mustang, which went on sale last year, is faster and more sophisticated than its predecessor. It also offers a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder, which Ford has credited for the Mustang's recent uptick and makes up 36 percent of the car's sales, Ford analyst Erich Merkle said. View 17 Photos June's performance allowed the Mustang to widen its sales gap with the Camaro this year. Through the first five months, Ford sold 68,290 Mustangs, a 54.4-percent increased compared with 2014. Chevy sold 42,593 Camaros, an 8.7-percent decrease. The Challenger – long the No. 3 pony car in sales volume – has seen its sales surge 41 percent this year to 37,011 units. Spokesman Monte Doran said Chevy expected that 2015 would be a "relatively soft year" for the Camaro. "Mustang is taking advantage of years' worth of pent-up demand for an independent rear suspension," he said. "When Camaro introduced an IRS, in 2009, it helped make us the best-selling performance car in America.
Formula Drift kicks off 11th season on Streets of Long Beach
Tue, 08 Apr 2014The 2014 Formula Drift series kicked off last weekend in Long Beach, and saw Chris Forsberg, who you'll recall went mad and drifted around a warehouse in an Infiniti M, take the title behind the wheel of his Hankook Tire Nissan 370Z (shown above).
Forsberg really ran away with the first round of competition, outscoring his closest opponent, second-place finisher Kenneth Moen and his Bridges Racing Nissan 240SX, by 20 points. Third place was 2013 championship winner Michael Essa and his Yokohama BMW M3, 30.5 points behind Forsberg.
In the manufacturers' title, Nissan took an early lead with 122 points, which isn't a huge surprise considering five of the top ten drifters were piloting either a Z or a product of the brand's S platform. Ford, which had two drivers (Justin Pawlak and Vaughn Gittin, Jr.) in the top ten, took home second place, while BMW is currently third in the manufacturers' standings.
Production Ford Escort heading for Beijing
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Ford's long-dormant Escort nameplate returned affixed to a sedan concept at last year's Shanghai Motor Show. While not exactly a beauty, it showed a clean, straightforward take on Ford's current styling. The Blue Oval said at the time that it wanted to create a model that was stylish "but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Job done. A year later, it looks like the minimalist vehicle might make its production debut at the Beijing Motor Show.
Autocar claims that the streetgoing version has been confirmed to it for the upcoming show, but so far, Ford isn't saying. If unveiled, the Escort is likely to be produced locally for the Chinese market with a domestic partner. Powertrain details remain a secret, but it seems highly likely that any production model would use a small three- or four-cylinder engine and front-wheel drive. Sales in other major world markets like ours are unlikely, but a test car was recently spotted in Europe.
Autoblog contacted Ford for confirmation, but the automaker demurred, with a spokesperson saying only, "At the moment, we are not confirming any vehicles planned for the show." It looks like we will have to wait to know for sure.
