1977 Ford Bronco 4x4 302ci V8 - Early Classic Bronco on 2040-cars
Miami, Florida, United States
|
Condition:
This 1977 Early Ford Bronco runs great, has been in climate controlled-garage, and has had routine maintenance and minor repairs by mechanics over the years. Body is in very good condition, with small dings, scratches, and paint chips throughout (see photos). There are small bits of rust, but nothing anywhere major (see photo driver kick panel). Crack in hood (see photo) has been the same size since I bought it. Original windshield is flat, with 1 small ding in it. Lock on driver side door works, passenger side does not, but there is no top--so its never locked. I have moved it across the country 3 times without issue (NJ, LA, Miami). It is the original factory paint job--37 years faded :-) Truck is not a show rebuild--but looks used and well enjoyed. I use it with the top off, but it comes with both the Kayline soft top, and the original hard top, as seen in the photos. I will also have stainless steel nerd bars from Jeff's Bronco Graveyard to add in that I have never attached. I have used it for the beach, golf course, quail fields or driving around town, mostly just weekends. It does require a warm-up on cold starts, but fires right up afterwards. Drives great, with a slight kick during initial acceleration (10-15mph), but I hardly notice anymore. There is not a day I drive it that I do not get a compliment. Features:
History - Clear Title. I have owned for several years without any major issues, mostly routine maintenance. I have had some wiring replaced, battery replaced, carburetor cleaned out and resealed, safety switch replaced, choke replaced, fuel fill neck replaced; I am not a mechanic, and had all this done professionally. Previous owner was out of California, owned for 15 years, and had stated that the motor was a rebuild with only 14,000 miles on it at the time (2010). He indicated the transmission was a rebuild, and that the smog pump, radiator, hoses, cat converter, fuel tank he had replaced new over his ownership. I could not verify, but sharing for history on this Bronco. This is a 37 year old Bronco in very good shape, but if you actually use it, there will be items over time that will eventually come up. I have been able to find nearly anything I needed off of Tom's Bronco Parts or Jeff's Bronco Graveyard, and had found a "Bronco enthusiast" mechanic anywhere I have lived. Questions? Please send me a message via eBay and I will post any answers for all. I am happy to speak via phone after that if I need to expand on an answer. eBay Motors lists an independent inspection online (InspectMyRide) which I can make myself available for--Bid with confidence!.

Ford not backing down on MPG-based marketing strategy
Thu, Jun 26 2014The Blue Oval may have to back off a bit from the green messaging. Ford has had to lower fuel-economy ratings on a number of 2013 and 2014 model-year vehicles, namely its hybrids. And that may force the US automaker to rethink some of its marketing strategy, Automotive News reports. Ford has spent much of the year pushing its fuel-efficiency improvements, with everything from a Super Bowl ad saying its Fusion Hybrid gets "almost double" the fuel efficiency of an average vehicle (after the recalculation, it's now more like 75 percent better) to claiming the Fiesta is the most fuel-efficient non-hybrid in the US (it's actually the Mitsubishi Mirage) to stating the C-Max Hybrid gets better fuel economy than the Toyota Prius V (it doesn't). Nonetheless, Ford doesn't plan on changing its mpg marketing emphasis anytime soon, the company said in an e-mailed statement to AutoblogGreen. "Providing customers great fuel economy is a key part of our Ford vehicle DNA." "Providing customers great fuel economy is a key part of our Ford vehicle DNA," the company said. "We will continue to highlight our vehicles features and attributes in our advertising and marketing, which includes fuel economy and fuel-saving technologies like EcoBoost and hybrids." Earlier this month, Ford said it would lower the fuel-economy ratings of models such as the C-Max, Fusion and Lincoln MKZ Hybrids as well as most of the Fiesta line because of mistakes in the company's internal testing data. It was the second change for the C-Max Hybrid. The good news for Ford is that its fleetwide fuel economy is up almost 40 percent from a decade ago, compared to an improvement of around 23 percent for Toyota. Still, while sales of Ford hybrids and plug-ins are about even with last year through the first five months of 2014, C-Max Hybrid sales have plunged 49 percent from a year earlier. Earlier this year, Ford admitted that the first fuel economy downgrade had a negative effect on sales and we can find proof in the numbers. Before that the change was announced, in August 2013, Ford was consistently selling over 2,000 – and sometimes over 3,000 – C-Max Hybrids a month. In September, it dropped to 1,424, then to 1,438 in October. It didn't climb back above 2,000 until May 2014. The second mpg adjustment was announced in June.
Jerry Seinfeld doesn't love Sarah Jessica Parker's new Country Squire in latest CiCGC
Fri, 20 Jun 2014Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee has finally returned for its fourth season of combining Jerry Seinfeld, a miscellaneous celebrity and a cup of java. But rather than fondly remembering some older piece of automotive machinery, this time around, Seinfeld is utterly unable to keep his hatred of Sarah Jessica Parker's 1976 Ford LTD Country Squire from coming out to hilarious effect.
However, Parker has such a high level of infectious enthusiasm for her recently purchased Country Squire that she seems to win over Seinfeld by the end - at least a little bit. For most of their time together, the two of them drive around Manhattan and the suburbs waxing nostalgic about what things were like when these wagons were ubiquitous.
Since this is actually SJP's car, she and Seinfeld trade off driving duties, and the image above should give you some indication of Seinfeld's reaction to the Sex and the City star behind the wheel. It seems this '70s land yacht might be a little too much for her to handle in New York traffic. Regardless, she is absolutely in love with her Ford.
Ford Focus Electric and ST recalled over lighting issue
Mon, 12 Aug 2013Ford is recalling 6,308 units of the 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric and 2013 Focus ST that were fitted with HID headlights because a "wiring incompatibility" could keep the front side marker lights from working. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the recall should begin in the middle of this month, after which owners can take their cars to dealers to have the wiring assembly repaired free of charge.
You can find more information in the NHTSA bulletin posted below.
