Here is your next classic Bronco. This truck exudes vintage charm in it's original trim however it has been significantly upgraded to be effortless for daily commutes and/or long trips.
The best features of this truck are:
Sounds right, runs right, tracks right, sits right!
Drives like a modern truck, not a 60's/70's truck.
Fuel injected motor starts right up, pulls strong, runs fantastic.
Cold a/c, comfortable seating, updated radio/cd.
Power steering, auto trans, front disc brakes
I've owned this truck for over ten years, much of the time as my primary vehicle. It started life as an Arizona truck and came from the factory very well optioned with:
302/auto trans, 4,900 GVW, limited slip rear, power steering, dual fuel tanks, remote driver mirror, passenger mirror, Ranger color/striping/brightwork spears.
Here's a list of some of the upgrades.
Engine/trans/driveline/mechanical:
The engine is a 1989 5.0 from a 31k mile Crown Vic (an old man's car that got rear-ended). Plus another 20k miles or so since installed in the Bronco. The timing cover forward is a serpentine belt setup from a 2000 Explorer including the a/c compressor. The rest of the a/c system is from Vintage Air. The engine and it's original ECM were installed and wired with care, including all necessary relays and circuit protection, by a mechanical engineer. This truck just starts right up every time with no pedal pumping and no choke to fiddle. Runs strong and clean. Has a catalytic converter and a SpinTech muffler. This gives it a nice low rumble without offending the neighbors. Original C4 works great, factory limited slip rear has been professionally rebuilt; chirps the tires as it should on sharp turns. Factory p/s gear has been professionally rebuilt. Truck tracks great, effortless around town or at highway speeds. Optima battery. Front brakes are C/K disc and rotor conversion with all rubber lines replaced with stainless steel for superior pedal feel.
Interior:
Tub and door panels were fully spray lined in white, modern seats installed with lumbar and headrest adjustment, custom dash accommodates a/c grills, Alpine speakers, Sony radio/cd garage, and upgraded fuse block. It has a locking Tuffy console, a factory rear seat (w/o armrests), intermittent wipers, two separate kill switches (very effective, hidden in plain view), rewired dash, remote control for the stereo, dash mounted high beam switch.
Exterior:
I wanted my Bronco to look unmolested. It has a very minor lift (about an inch, inch and a half) and upsized tires on stock rims with original caps. Stance is a personal thing, but I think this Bronco sits right. The tires are BF Goodrich All-terrain T/A with plenty of meat left (30x9.5-15). All doors/locks/windows work as they should. Doors close properly with no sag. Original Ranger colors and striping. Hood has hydraulic lifts instead of the prop rod. Wipers have been upgraded to Cherokee blades/refills. Factory dual tank setup replaced with a single 21 gallon tank. Headlights upgraded to halogen bulbs and reflectors with plastic reflector protectors; all on relays for superior lighting power. Paintwork is vintage with lots of patina. Slight variations in sheen and color indicate portions repainted over the years. Some crazing, some minor surface rust. Would benefit from a full cosmetic restoration, but in no way needs it. This truck presents great and is perfect for the collector who will DRIVE it. Lower quarters (just in the white band) have been professionally replaced with metal. The only notable rust is on the door bottoms (minor perforation on driver door inner edge) which could either be repaired or stabilized. Not causing any functional or aesthetic issues at this point. See close up photos. I personally love the worn paint where your left arm sits on the door top. It calls you to ride around town on a sunny Saturday and collect the waves, honks and thumbs-up. Undercarriage shows surface rust. Floorboards are all solid, rockers are solid. No issues.
Recently PA state inspected, good til 3/14.
The following are shortcomings a new owner would want to be aware of:
The high pressure fuel pump mounted on the frame rail makes a whine. It is a stock Ford unit (F-250, I think). Could be replaced or upgrade to in-tank. Or turn up the radio.
Passenger side window rolls up and down but is tight, probably from disuse.
Minor surface rust issues noted above. Overall, this is a nearly rust-free Arizona-raised truck.
Stereo "garage" door does not stay up on it's own. A brace or snugger pivots should address. A wedge in the linkage also works.
Original cardboard headliner is starting to sag a little (about an inch) at the seam.
Two very minor cracks in the otherwise excellent dash pad. See photo.
Swing-out tire carrier needs a new safety cable.
I am happy to show it, give test drives to you or your surrogate/agent, facilitate with your shipper and/or assist with fly-in/drive-out. We are 20 minutes from PHL, 90 minutes from Atlantic City Airport.
Please bid only if you intend to purchase; $1,500 non-refundable required within 24 hours of close of auction.
Reasonable reserve will not be revealed in fairness to all. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Ladies Love It: Ford Fiesta wins Womens World Car of the Year
Thu, 25 Jul 2013It's official: A panel of female automotive writers has chosen the Ford Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost as the Womens World Car of the Year, and it beat tough competition like the Mazda CX-5, Range Rover and Porsche Boxster S for the overall top spot.
The CX-5 and Range Rover won the SUV and Luxury Car categories, respectively, and the Boxster S laid claim to the Sports Car category, beating the runner up Audi RS5 and third place Toyota GT86/Subaru BRZ (or Scion FR-S). The Audi Allroad was named the Family car of the year.
The panel consisted of 18 female automotive writers from around the world tasked with picking the best car in each of eight categories, including top vehicle overall, using criteria that women utilize when shopping for a car. That includes safety, value-for-money, aesthetic appearance, storage space, child-friendliness, ease-of-driving, color, sex appeal and environmental footprint.
Ford C-Max Commercial Brings Cadillac 'Poolside' Ad Down To Earth
Thu, Mar 27 2014If we had tried to predict the first video response to the controversial Poolside video for the Cadillac ELR, we would not have thought it would center on compost. But, hey, it's always nice to be reminded that the real world is sometimes better than fiction. Instead of the chic swagger of 'Poolside,' 'Anything Is Possible' is all about getting dirty. The new short in question is called Upside: Anything Is Possible and it promotes two things: Detroit Dirt and the Ford C-Max Energi. As in the ELR ad, Ford's plug-in C-Max only makes an appearance at the tail end of the spot, but instead of the chic swagger of Poolside, Anything Is Possible is all about getting dirty. The ad stars Pashon Murray, co-founder of Detroit Dirt, which takes natural waste from around Detroit, composts it into soil and then spreads that around "forgotten parcels" of Detroit to create urban farms. Detroit Dirt gets its bio-waste from a lot of sources, including the Detroit Zoological Society (all that herbivore manure has to go somewhere), Ford and General Motors, but this particular ad was the idea of Ford's PR agency, Team Detroit. It was a frenetic shoot, filmed with an LA-based director right after a big winter storm blew through Detroit, and Murray couldn't be happier with the result. "This was Ford Motor Company pushing my story, letting me tell the story that I believe in," Murray tells AutoblogGreen. "I get to help push this car and I get to tell my story." She says that the Team Detroit and Ford had to agree on the message, "from my understanding, [YouTube] is where they wanted to start, not where they wanted to finish." The ad is already getting a positive response on Twitter, so we won't be surprised if it shows up in more places soon. "It's not saying Ford is better than GM. It's telling the story of a black woman who's working hard in Detroit." As Detroit Dirt has off-screen support from both GM and Ford, it's unsurprising to hear Murray say that the video "is not a rivalry thing." She notes that the ad agency Team Detroit came to her and offered to tell the Detroit Dirt story using the framework of the GM ad. "It's a parody on this commercial, but it's not saying Ford is better than GM," she said. "It's telling the story of a black woman who's working hard in Detroit." What is that story? It's about urban farming, recovery and recycling. Murray tells us that for the last seven or eight years, she's been dedicated to sustainability.
