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.

Jay Leno has to be under significant pressure knowing the appetite his fans have for a new Jay Leno's Garage video every week. This time, Jay takes a break from his usual format (something he's been doing with some frequency as of late) and goes back to his roots as a talk show host. There's no classic in the garage his episode with an interesting story to tell and a sumptuous exhaust note. Instead, the focus is purely on interviewing 23-year-old NASCAR racer Joey Logano about what it's like to be a racecar driver in his Ford Fusion.
Logano started racing at the tender age of six and has risen up the circle-track ranks to the big show of the NASCAR Sprint Cup. The two of them talk about what it's like to compete in the sport today compared to yesteryear, and Logano shares some racing anecdotes. Of course, they also get into what it's like to be on the racetrack controlling a car with about 850 horsepower, a four-speed manual transmission and brakes without any power boost. Scroll down to watch the video.

Vaughn Gittin Jr. spends a great deal of his workday going sideways, but he's usually alone in the endeavor. For a guy that is clearly a dog lover, we imagine that can get a bit lonely.
That won't be a problem for Gittin in this latest video, which features the racer hanging out with his good pal Brody (a dog) and everyone's favorite hot hatch, the Ford Fiesta ST.

Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.
