1989 Ford Bronco Xlt Centurion 4-door 1-ton Suv on 2040-cars
Evansville, Indiana, United States
|
You are bidding on a very rare and very cool 4-door Ford Bronco built on the frame of a Ford F350 1-ton truck ... This Bronco
was the precursor to the Excursion, is in very nice condition inside and out, has
always been serviced and is very well optioned (see
description below for a list of all options and mods). The odometer shows 43,245 on it, which from the records I believe is the current mileage on the 460 motor following a rebuild in 2002. The F350 frame showed 125,900 for the mileage in 2003. The body was from a 1989 Bronco and does not have a VIN associated with it. This truck was built as an off-road vehicle so the previous owner didn't care about the interior or a perfect paint job. He had his body man spray the truck matte black over the green and tan factory paint. The interior is nice but not perfect. The seats and dash are the best part, as I personally would replace the carpet and headliner. The body is straight with no rust issues, and the engine runs very strong. The upgrades were done correctly with high quality parts. Everything electrical works as designed. It drives very well, even with the lift and large tires. The title history report shows two accidents, but the only thing carried over from the F350 donor vehicle is the frame and axles. The Bronco donor body had no accident history and is still clear of dents, dings, etc. Photos show the condition the most accurately, so please request them. It's a very cool, rare Bronco!
Additional Details: (VIN: 2FTJW36G6KCA17910), matte black / tan cloth int., auto trans., 43,250 miles shown on odo., this is a very rare FordBronco modified by Centurion Vehicles out of MI into a 1-ton, 4-door Bronco. These were available new through Ford dealer ships, and these were the precursors to the 2000 Excursion. This Centurion features the following upgrades and Options: windshield visor and roof rack, 7.5L 460 big block with side exit exhaust, MSD ignition, K&N air filter, C-6 auto trans with HD torque converter and shift kit, balanced steel driveshaft, F350 1-ton frame, axles and suspension, 2H/4H/4L selectable 4x4, Skyjacker lift kit, 3rd row seating w/ second row bench, power driver seat with lumbar, power front windows & rear window / locks / cruise, tilt steering wheel, interior wood package, overhead console package, towing package with electric brake controller, Pioneer in-dash CD with Rockford Fosgate amp and Infinity 10" subs in custom boxes, alloy rims with 37x12.5-R16 GoodYear Wrangler MT mud tires, over $7,200.00 invested in the mods, not including the F350 or Bronco! If you want some thing rare and unique with the ability to haul 9 people and their luggage this is the truck for you. You won't ever see another one of these on the road or at you local 4x4 show. About Centurion conversion: From the late 1980s through its demise in 1996, the Bronco was also sold at Ford dealerships as a modified 4-door SUV (making it similar to the Excursion or Suburban). These 4-door Broncos were converted by Centurion Vehicles of White Pigeon, Michigan. The conversion involved combining a new club cab short bed F-Series truck with a Bronco body, tailgate and fiberglass top. The end result? A huge, versatile, extremely rugged SUV. In addition to adding a third row of seats and more room, a Bronco Centurion could be ordered using an F-350 as the donor pickup, allowing the Centurion to have such engines as the 7.3L PowerStroke turbo diesel and the 7.5L 460ci gasoline V8. This made the Centurion more appealing to people in need of a comfortable tow vehicle, albeit a faster one. Over time the few of these cars that still exist are rare and valuable, except for the certain percentage of Northern cars that suffered from tailgate rust-out due to poor body paint preparation. The Bronco Centurion could be ordered with options such as a third-row seat that can be folded into a bed, second row bucket seats, a TV with a VCR, and a built-in radar detector.

2015 Ford Mustang option prices gallop onto the web
Tue, 22 Apr 2014The 2015 Ford Mustang is one of the most anticipated cars of the year, despite the fact that production hasn't yet begun. What's a pony car fan to do? It turns out that Ford already has pricing and options information about the vehicle in its dealer ordering system. A few enterprising folks have snapped some pictures from it and have posted them online. You might not be able to drive your car yet, but you can at least see what it might cost.
At the moment, Ford appears to be splitting the Mustang into five models - 3.7-liter V6, 2.3-liter EcoBoost, GT with the 5.0-liter V8, 50th Anniversary and SVT. There are 10 available paint colors, 2 of which require an extra outlay. Triple Yellow is $495, and Ruby Red Tint is $395. Regardless of model, navigation goes for $795, and reverse parking assist is $295.
For both the EcoBoost and GT, the six-speed automatic tacks an extra $1,195 to the sticker, and adaptive cruise control is the same price. The GT also has a limited-slip 3.55 rear end for $395 and a GT Performance package for $2,495. Recaro leather seats add an extra $1,595. For the EcoBoost, there's something called EcoBoost Performance package for $1,995. The system doesn't say what the packages include.
'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars
Wed, 30 Jul 2014The old saying goes that if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. But being a criminal can involve more than just taking a trip to the big house; it can also mean losing possessions purchased from any ill-gotten gains. Still, one man's loss is another's gain, and if you're in Lodi, NJ, on September 12, you stand the chance to buy some of the ultimate muscle cars from the US Marshals in what is being gruesomely nicknamed the Blood Muscle auction.
The grisly moniker was earned because all of the vehicles belonged to the president of a blood testing company who is facing prison time for alleged bribery, according to Hemmings. After all, they are muscle cars bought with actual blood money. The seven-vehicle collection includes some of the ultimate muscle cars ever made, and the original buyer clearly had an eye for rarity.
This cornucopia of V8 power includes a teal 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429, a 1967 Shelby GT500 Mustang, an orange 1970 Plymouth Superbird, a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS convertible and perhaps most prized of all - a trio of 1969 Yenko Chevys with a Chevelle, Nova and Camaro all represented. From the included photos, all of them look to be in fantastic condition.
Martin Smith retires, Joel Piaskowski in as Ford Europe design chief
Thu, 29 May 2014The mind behind the look of much of the modern Ford global range is retiring. Martin Smith, Head of Ford Design in Europe, will give up his position on July 1 and will leave the company altogether at the end of the year. He will be replaced by current Strategic Concepts Group leader Joel Piaskowski (pictured above).
Smith has led Ford of Europe design for the past 10 years, and he was partially responsible for the brand's Kinetic Design language with a large grille and swept-back headlights found on the Focus, Fiesta and C-Max, as well as several other vehicles abroad. After stepping down on July 1 until his retirement at the end of 2014, Smith will work on a project to decide the future direction of the company's look with Moray Callum, its vice president of design.
Piaskowski already has some impressive credentials in terms of automotive design as well. He joined Ford in 2010 as director of exterior design and led the teams responsible for the 2015 Ford Mustang and next-generation F-150. He was also previously design director at Ford Asia Pacific. Before working at the Blue Oval, Piaskowski held positions at Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai and General Motors. Scroll down to read the complete announcement of this changing of the guard.
