1978 Ford Bronco on 2040-cars
Woodland, Washington, United States
|
So...this 1978 Ford Bronco is that one owner 72,000 mile Bronco you could only hope to find. It was ordered back East by the original owner and brought out to Portland, OR in 1982 and has lived her since in an inside storage inviroment. The original owners wife donated it when her husband became ill. I was fortunate enough to be able to obtain it. I have been hunting for Bronco's as a hobby for years. I travel for work and for me, it is all about the hunt to find these Bronco's in great condition because most of them have been around the mountain a time or two. I have talked to the original owners wife and can put you in touch with her.
The Interior in this Bronco is a 9 out of 10, only because one can always find something wrong with anything. Factory black and silver Vinyl seats. Factory roll bar and air conditioning. The only the thing the interior does not have is tilt wheel and cruise control. All gauges and instruments work as new. Factory AM//FM Stereo. When you take this out of park to drive it feels as though the linkage isn't even connected because of the newness of the Bronco. When you unlock the doors with a key you can feel the mechanism is still greased from factory, nice and smooth. It is simply impresseve. Looking under the dash all moldings and carpet are as new. Closing the doors is a simple click and they latch. The original owner has added those "old man" add ons. Air pump with air horn under the hood (not working). Fog light for backing up and indicating lights so if your lights are on you are aware of it. Factory push bar with factory fog lights. Double Shocks, Dual exhaust, headers and tow hitch. This is a trailer special from the Factory, therefor it has an oil bath air cleaner and an added oil transmission cooler. The Bronco sat for 3 years. I installed a new fuel pump and have I have been smiling every since because driving this Bronco reflects is mileage and condition. The paint is original and the patina on the paint is somewhat confusing because above the molding it is faded but will easily rub out and shine. I can't bring myself to doing that because of the originality of the Bronco. The hood is faded in spots to the underprimer. All chrome molding, grill, headlight rings and chrome bumpers are outstanding. A rare thing in itself. The chrome window gimp molding is in unbelievable condition. There are brand new 33.1250.15 BFG All Terrain's that I have put on the Bronco. Unfortunately, the 10 X 15 Aluminum slots are new wheels from 1978 that I can not replace, therefor I am keeping them. In place I have 10 X 15 chrome spokes that are in outstanding condition. (can submit photos if needed) This is that rare one owner Bronco with original miles. Believe me there will be no disappointments with this Bronco. If you have any questions please contact me. ********Check my my feedback and you will see the prior Bronco's I have sold have had 100% feedback************ |

J Mays' legacy
Fri, 15 Nov 2013
Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".
Project Ugly Horse: Part VIII
Fri, 17 May 2013Now With More EcoBoost
There's an EcoBoost 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder in there somewhere, and it's headed straight for Ugly Horse.
For the second time in my life, I'm staring at an engine in the back of a truck with no concept of how to get it safely into the garage by my lonesome. The first time this happened, I dragged home a $300 International 345 V8 in the back of my Scout Terra only to discover that the bounds of my manliness terminated well before my ability to muscle that 800-pound cast iron block out of the pickup bed.
