1977 Bronco
This is a 1977 Ford Bronco truck in the body style that produced 1966-1977, it is the of the jeep style small bodied Broncos and considered by far to be the best year. It is very hard to a '77 model for sale and I wish I did not need to sell this one. I have had it in my collection for a long time.
1977 was the only small Bronco with fuel cap doors versus prominate fuel caps. This bronco has dual fuel tanks and they do not leak and I have noticed no rust in the fuel.
This bronco is equipped with a 302 and automatic transmission. The engine exhaust, and upgraded sspension were installed I believe at the same time. This was about 4 years ago if what I was told is correct. It has a 4" suspension lift on front (new springs) and a 2" leveling block in the rear.
The motor runs quiet, no exhaust leaks and very smooth (perfectly balanced), no vibrations. The automatic trans works better than the original and the throttle kick down rod which operates what is called passing gear is correctly installed.
It has headers that are high quality with thick flanges and dual exhaust with very mellow, nearly quiet exhaust.
1977 used stronger front axles than the earlier broncos and it has disk brakes. The front axle is a dana 44 and rear axle is a ford 9". The gear ratio is 3.50 in the front and 3L50 in the rear. The L means factory limited slip axle.
This bronco has power disk brakes, power steering, and a heavy duty front sway bar. It has aftermarket A/C and needs to be recharged.
I believe the aluminum wheels came on this bronco in '77, I know this wheels were on '77-'78 F-150s. The tires are in good shape and I would say with about 50% of tread left.
The head liner is sagging and needs some attention or replaced, the overhead wiper motor cover is missing as is the weather stripping between the windshield and convertible top.
All three of these problems are very easy to fix and I have a nearly endless supply of these parts readily avaliable. There is however, a small rust hole in the passenger side door jam by a factory weld about half the size of a dime. Also the underside of the hood needs to be painted orange which I am supposed to do next week (my friend thought it would look better black without asking me).
I hate putting this bronco up for auction with these minor imperfections, but I simply do not have the time to fix them right now.
This bronco is not a ten but I am not asking a ridiculous price either. I hope someone that has always wanted a nice bronco for a fair price can have their dream come true.
This vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early at anytime for any reason.
Feel free to contact me for any questions you may have or make any reasonable offer.

I will try to help with delivery information or store it temporarily till it can be picked up or delivered.

Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86
Wed, 26 Jun 2013On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.
Xcar celebrates 100-year anniversary with Model T tribute
Fri, Jan 9 2015Never mind the fact that XCar hasn't been making videos for the last 100 years, the British duo have gone all silent-moving-pictures in order to make their centenary case for the Ford Model T, a car that was already seven years old in 1915. It's not a review, but a mostly sepia-tinged look at the car that started the mass-market adventure by taking that biblical advice to be fruitful and multiply and populate the Earth abundantly. Since it looks like Xcar is celebrating some kind of milestone, we've also included another video below of the first Xcar review we could find, covering the BMW M1, from the much more recent past - circa 2012.
