      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 continues autonomous tech development

Sat, Jun 27 2015

Some of the autonomous-driving features that Ford offers in Europe will come to the United States as soon as next year. The Blue Oval will add the pre-collision assist and pedestrian detection technologies that it has already installed on the Mondeo sedan in Europe. Those features, part of what Ford calls the "second of three phases" in driverless technology, will be brought stateside in a yet-to-be disclosed model, while most of Ford's US vehicle line will have the features by 2019. It has been testing an automated Fusion for more than a year. Ford is looking to build upon the autonomous-vehicle technology that it already has on models such as the Fusion, Taurus, F-150, Edge, and Explorer. Those amenities include active-park assist, lane-departure warning, and blind-spot monitoring. Ford said early last year that it was working with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Stanford University to develop algorithms for use in driverless cars. The effort is part of Ford's so-called "Blueprint for Mobility" geared toward autonomous driving features that are being developed over the next decade. FORD COLLABORATES WITH SILICON VALLEY INNOVATION ECOSYSTEM ON AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES, 3D PRINTING, WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY Autonomous vehicle technology is another step closer to production at Ford – moving from a research effort to an advanced engineering project Ford announces it is working with Silicon Valley-based 3D-printing firm Carbon3D to quickly produce high-quality automotive-grade parts Ford kicks off wearable technology development with MyFordÂ® Mobile app extension Â– coming soon to smartwatches including Android Wear Â– providing customers the ability to check vehicle driving range, battery charge and more for their plug-in hybrid or electric vehicle quickly from their wrists Autonomous vehicle technology is another step closer to production at Ford, moving from a research effort to an advanced engineering program, the company announced today. Ford has appointed a director of autonomous vehicle development Â– 29-year Ford veteran Randy Visintainer Â– and created a global team to work on the advanced program. Ford Research and Innovation Center Palo Alto is working on the global Ford team to deliver the Ford Smart Mobility plan, which aims to take the company to the next level in connectivity, mobility, autonomous vehicles, the customer experience and big data.

Autoblog Minute: Ford Ranger, UK Mustang, Hyundai Hybrid

Fri, Aug 28 2015

Ford may bring the Ranger back to the US, the UK goes nuts over the Mustang, and the battle of hybrids heats up with spy shots of the Toyota Prius and a new Hyundai. Autoblog's senior editor Greg Migliore reports on the weekly recap edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Ford may bring the Ranger back to the US, the UK goes nuts over Mustang, and the battle of hybrids heats up with spy shots of Prius and a new Hyundai. I'm Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute weekly recap. 2011 was the last time we saw Ford's midsize pickup in the US but according to a report from the Detroit News we could see production of the Ranger at the [00:00:30] Dearborn automaker's Michigan Assembly Plant as early as 2018. Ranger could compete with the Chevy Colorado and perhaps revive the compact and midsize pickup market for Ford, but the future of Ranger in the US depends a lot on Ford's ongoing negotiations with the UAW. About 2,000 orders for the 2015 Mustang were placed in the UK, tying up production of the pony car until July 2016. According to details in a press release from Ford UK, [00:01:00] it looks like Brits are a lot like their American cousins, opting for the 5.0 liter V8, with Race Red as the popular color of choice. Photos of the 2016 Toyota Prius leaked generating a lot of buzz over the styling. This fourth generation Prius will have some new competition as spy shots of a new Hyundai also surfaced this week. The car is said to be a hybrid and a bonafide "Prius fighter." Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to check out my full recap this Saturday, [00:01:30] including the latest in FCA rumors for 2016. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.
