      Regretfully I am selling my 1978 Bronco.  Due to the recent sequester I will not be getting paid on a crop insurance policy I purchased through USDA soon enough to pay some bills or possibly at all so I have to sell this Bronco immediately.  I just bought this Bronco back from a friend in November.  I had bought it from the original owner in 1997 when I was 20 years old. It was my daily driver for a year and I loved it.  In 1998 I sold it because I needed a pickup to work out of.  I sold it to a family friend and fellow Ford enthusiast.  He took excellent care of it only putting about 500 miles on it in 14 years.
     All the time he owned it I always told him that if he decided to sell it I wanted it back.  Last spring after sitting for quite a while he discovered that the engine had become seized for some reason.  He purchased a nicely rebuilt 400 from a mutual friend who is a professional mechanic and they installed it.  The engine was properly installed and broke in right with zinc added to the oil and primed.  It also received a new gas tank and lines as well as new power steering pump and master cylinder.  The radiator was flushed and belts were changed.  It also had brand new tires put on the factory painted wheels not long before I got it.  It now has approximately 1500 miles on the new parts and engine and runs and drives excellent.
     At the time of this listing it is back in the shop getting the air conditioning serviced and recharged as it had not been done yet from the engine swap.  Also the rear window electric motor is being replaced with a new one because it is a little slow.  When it leaves the shop the only thing not working will be the cruise control which is all there but won't engage, maybe the buyer can figure it out.  This Bronco is very close to original condition and is in good overall condition.  To my knowledge there was never any rust repair done and the only known rust is a small spot on the bottom of the tailgate caused by a leaky rear window seal that has since been replaced.  I tried to photograph it as best I could.
     For a 35-year-old vehicle it is in great shape but it is not perfect.  It is however an honest Bronco that has not been messed with much and is 99% rust free.  In fact, it still has an 8-track player in it!  This Bronco would make an easy restoration project or a good driver. The paint is cracked and front seats are torn but the dash pad is perfect. These Freewheeling package Broncos are getting harder to find.  I would not be afraid to drive it anywhere.  I have tried to be as honest as possible in describing it and will be happy to answer questions.  I will be happy to work with the shipper you choose.  If not for finances I would not be selling it.  I am not at a computer very often so it is best to call me at 6202711216 or my wife at 6206408414. 
     I would like $500 within 24 hrs of the auction ending and payment in full within 7 days.  Thanks for looking!

Ford pranks unsuspecting blind dates with Mustang GT and stunt driver

Thu, Feb 12 2015

There's 'speed dating,' that ludicrous get-to-know-you ritual devised by The Inquisition of Mating, and then there's 'dating at ludicrous speed,' which is a better description of what Ford has done in this latest video for the 2015 Mustang GT for your Valentine's Day enjoyment. The Blue Oval used a professional stunt driver to hook six guys into going on a little car trip, but the setup is the key – she pretends she's not that good at driving, until she's really good at it. You can check it out above. Kudos to the guy who goes from "You might want to shift again" to "That's what I'm talking about!" without any question. And the ninja.
