Beautiful 87 Ford Bronco 4x4 on 2040-cars
Valdosta, Georgia, United States
|
I have up for auction a beautiful 1987 Ford Bronco. I purchased it from San Antonio Texas where it had spend all its life. It is truly a rust free Bronco. It clearly need a paint job because it was faded badly and the old clear coat was peeling. I sanded the old stuff off and started with SPI epoxy primer which sets up an unbelievable foundation. The Bronco had one spot that had body filler, and I am not sure why because it was no bigger than a dollar bill. I fixed the misc nicks and dings and painted it two tone Silver and Blue. The interior is very basic but in excellent shape for a 1987. The rubber mat in the back is original and has quite a bit of wear and some cuts, but it is very serviceable. The guy I purchased it from had just spent over $1200 having it tuned up and the power rear window repaired. He didn't fib about the condition, but had a unique method of disclosing it's flaws. When he stated " the gas gauge works, but only when it wants too" that translates into... it doesn't work. At least in the over 1000 miles I have put on it the gauge hasn't "wanted" to work yet. He said the radio works, but it will need speakers. The radio doesn't work. He said it will soon need a muffler. It does, and I will have one installed. The power steering pump, or the hose on has a small leak in it.
The 4 wheel drive and AC works. It is a manual transmission and 302 V8. The transmission in 1987 was a real truck transmission, not a car transmission like the put in them in later years. My hobby is lite bodywork and painting older vehicles up, I do one to two a year, and this is by far the best running vehicle I have ever had to work on. As I said I have put over 1000 miles on it and it is truly amazing. Have a look at the pictures, and email me if you have any questions. Shipping costs are buyers responsibility. I will assist with loading. I encourage local inspections prior to bidding. If the winning bidder upon local inspection has any concerns whatsoever I will gladly refund any deposit and you won't have to go thru with the purchase. |

Ford rolls out diesel Focus ST at Goodwood [w/poll]
Sun, 29 Jun 2014If you're in the market for a hot hatch, there are some excellent choices at your disposal - especially if you live in Europe. But if you want a diesel, well, your choices become rather more limited. Volkswagen tends to that niche market with the Golf GTD (essentially an oil-burning version of the GTI available Stateside), but that's about the extent of it. The pleas of those looking for more diesel-burning hot hatch choices haven't fallen on deaf ears at Ford, with the Blue Oval not only rolling out a facelifted gas-powered Focus ST at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend, but also a new diesel version as well.
The diesel Focus ST (which we hope and pray isn't marketed as the STD) packs a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four producing 182 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque to propel the oil-burning hot hatch to 62 in 8.1 seconds en route to a top speed of 135 miles per hour. With less power and only slightly more torque, that makes the diesel Focus ST considerably slower than the gasoline one, which packs 252 hp and 270 lb-ft, runs to 62 in 6.5 seconds and tops out at 154 mph, but (in a testament to how far particulate filters have come) the diesel model cuts carbon emissions by nearly a third compared to the petrol version and returns about 50-percent better fuel economy, which makes that much more of a difference in markets where diesel is already priced better than gasoline at the pump.
For buyers who wouldn't consider anything other than a diesel, it also represents 23-percent more power than the previous top-level diesel Focus. The VW Golf GTD, for reference, offers up 181 hp (just 1 horse less), 280 lb-ft (15 fewer torques) but is somehow estimated to reach 60 in a considerably fleeter 7.4 seconds.
Ford recalling 850,000 cars and SUVs for airbag issues
Fri, 26 Sep 2014Ford has announced a major recall of 850,000 vehicles from model years 2013 and 2014 due to a problem with the "restraints control module."
According to Ford, a short circuit could develop in the module, causing the airbag warning light to illuminate. In more severe cases, dependent on where the short develops, the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioners may not work in the event of an accident. The problems can be more wide-ranging than that, too, as systems that rely on information from the control module, such as the stability control can be affected.
With 850,000 vehicles affected, it's no surprise that some of Ford's volume leaders are covered. That includes the Fusion and Lincoln MKZ sedans, as well as the incredibly recall-prone Escape and the C-Max MPV.
Meet Floyd Pullin, 102-year-old honorary president of Ford trucks [w/video]
Wed, 28 Aug 2013When we talk about trucks we often talk about how loyal truck owners are; it's men like Floyd Pullin who provide the proof. The 102-year-old man from Confluence, Pennsylvania has only owned Ford products since the 1920s, and he's done so well by Ford Trucks that the division named him honorary president for a day, not long after he took delivery of his latest ride, a 2013 F-150 STX.
That's the 16th Ford he's owned. If he bought his first when he was 16, he'd have flipped into a new car or truck about every five years. For 86 years. Not a bad run of business for either side.
Ford Trucks made a video to wish Pullin a happy birthday, which was celebrated at his local Ford dealership and was visited by a Pennsylvania state senator. You can watch it below.
