All ("sales pitchs") aside, this is one bad a$$ Bronco! The only reason I am selling this car is because I have commitment issues when it comes to vehicles and I wanna start a new build. Truth be told; I'll likely end up buying this Bronco back in the future.This 1969 early Ford Bronco is, in my opinion (and many), the best looking, fully modernized, Bronco available on the West Coast. ASC Broncos (Google them if you don't know) restored & built this Bronco so you know it was done by one of the best, most experienced (since '79) early Bronco builders on the West Coast. There has been a lot of talk about my Bronco actually being available for sale and I wanted to get this advert up to at least summarize some of the key things about it. I plan on updating this post with more pix and info (time permitting) until it has sold. This Bronco was built for SEMA and was chosen to be featured in Toyo Tires booth, this past year. This classic bronco is also the most "LIKE"d & searched Bronco on Instagram, ever! Search #projectbronco for photos dating back to the first week I purchased it. I have meticulously made sure this Bronco is one of the best ever made. You are not paying a premium because of the exposure this Bronco has received over the past couple years, you are paying what it is worth. I can count on two hands how many things on this vehicle have NOT been replaced, restored or modernized. This Bronco would run you $80-90k to be built by any of the top builders and would likely take 9-15 months to complete. I know, because I have first hand knowledge of every "high end" Bronco build done in California in the past 2 years and this is the BEST one with the exception of ICON's Broncos. Shoutout to Jonathan Ward, if you're reading this, your builds are the shit! Those, however, have a two year waiting list and will run you $150k+.EngineEngine Builder: ASC BroncoManufacturer: FordType: 351W H.O Roller Motor w/ Fuel Injection (less then 2500 miles)Camshaft: Comp CamsAir Filter: K&NFuel Injection: FordIgnition: MSD Digital 6ALHeaders: BC Broncos Ceramic Shorty SeriesTires And WheelsManufacturer: Toyo TiresType: 33" Open Country M/T'sManufacturer: Trailready Type: 15" Tru-Beadlock 'Baja Style' ConversionManufacturer: Gorilla Automotive ProductsType: Wheel Locks & Hub CoversBrakesManufacturer: Hydratech Braking SystemsType: Hydraulic Brake Assist System 'Full Show Prep'Manufacturer: James Duff Inc.Type: Disk Brakes Fuel SystemManufacturer: BC BroncosCapacity: 23 GallonsTransmissionManufacturer: FordType: C4 AutomaticRear EndManufacturer: FordType: 9"Ratio: 3:54Exterior Color: Ford BlueManufacturer: BC Broncos ($2000)Type: Soft TopManufacturer: James Duff Inc.Type: (Rear) Plate Bumper & Jack CarrierManufacturer: ProtofabType: (Front) Rocksolid BumperManufacturer: James Duff Inc.

This car is not a trailer queen, but sure as hell looks like one.As I said, these are just SOME of the vehicles features. It would take me a week to list everything. If you've been looking at (high end) Broncos you will know upon seeing this build that this Bronco is like no other for all the right reasons.
The ONLY issues with this Bronco, and I mean only, are that the transfer case & transmission leak a tiny bit. This is very common in early Broncos. I'v been told by several different mechanics that is not an issue to be worried about at all!

There's no doubt that Ford is taking a risk in producing the body of its upcoming new F-150 pickup truck in aluminum. What is up for debate, however, is whether aluminum was a wise risk to take in the first place. Wards Auto took the opportunity to poll some experts on the subject of aluminum versus steel in the automotive sector, with somewhat unsurprising results.
Richard Schultz, a project consultant at Ducker Worldwide, which bills itself as "a leading aluminum industry consultant (though they also deal in steels), suggests that the potential drawbacks to aluminum - higher costs, lower supply - aren't really impediments to the auto industry's increased acceptance of the lightweight metal.
Similarly, Randall Scheps, global automotive marketing director for Alcoa, a massive aluminum producer, counters claims that aluminum is less safe for vehicle occupants, suggesting that the use of aluminum can actually increase safety as it could potentially allow for larger vehicles with more crush space than steel.

The Blue Oval is looking for folks on the other side of this Big Old Sphere to get on board with its hybrid offerings. Ford executive Raj Nair, speaking at the Detroit Auto Show this week, said the US automaker wants to double the number of hybrids models it offers by the end of the decade, Reuters reports. Details of what that actually means is anyone's guess, as it was unclear how many of those models would be in the US and how many would be overseas. That said, Nair did say that prospective customers in regions such as China and Europe would drive the expansion of offerings. Ford got off to a great start in the US last year on its hybrid sales, but then tailed off towards the end of 2013. Ford more than doubled its green-car sales in 2013 to almost 88,000 units. In that number were more than 37,000 Fusion Hybrids and more than 28,000 C-Max Hybrids sold domestically. The company also sold almost 7,500 Lincoln MKZ Hybrids. Ford's green-car totals for 2013 were up fivefold at the mid-year point, hinting that Ford's hybrid sales plateaued, at least temporarily, in recent months.

The Ford C-Max is having a rough time. Sales for the five-door hybrid hatchback were down 39.1 percent in March to 2,295 cars, and sales from January through March were down 42.5 percent to 5,566 units. In an interview with The Detroit News, Ford Americas boss Joe Hinrichs places the blame on lowering the model's fuel economy rating.
"We're definitely seeing consideration on C-Max decline over time. We need to reinvest in the product because it's a great car," said Hinrichs to The Detroit News.
The company was hit with bad publicity over the C-Max when owners in multiple states filed class action lawsuits that alleged the cars weren't able to meet the stated fuel economy. Ford eventually re-rated the model from 47 miles per gallon city, highway and combined to 40 mpg city, 45 mpg highway and 43 mpg combined. To soften the blow of the change, the automaker sent checks to the owners to make up some of the difference. Initially, Ford claimed that demand remained strong for the hybrid. However, the latest sales figures and Hinrichs' statement seem to show the opposite.
