1971 Ford Bronco--Restored-- Equipped with Power Disk Brakes, Power Steering, Upgraded (4) Speed Manual Transmission, Hard Doors and Hard Top. We built this Bronco almost to the T as the last one we sold, due to the overwhelming response. This Bronco was taken down and built from the ground up. We spared no expense and built this Bronco to last. The 302 motor was completely rebuilt and bored .30 over, with picture documentation. It has all new pistons, bearings, seals, gaskets, oil pump, fuel pump, water pump, alternator, thermostat, custom aluminum hoses, radiator fan, aluminum radiator, new Edelbrock chrome intake, Edelbrock 4 barrell chrome carburetor, chrome brake booster and master cylinder, new overflow and the list goes on. The engine compartment was base coated and clear coated with the engine out with PPG paint and the underside of the Bronco was sprayed with a undercoating for preservation. The Transmission while it was out was completely gone through checked out and reassembled with new gaskets, synchronizers, bearings, and fluid. We had a brand new exhaust system installed with 40 Series FlowMaster exhaust by a local muffler shop. Both axles were completely taken out, taken apart, sandblasted down, treated with Ospho, primed, and painted with high end paint. While the front axle was apart we replaced seals, bushings, fluid, drag arm bushings and new brake pads and calipers. The rear axle has new seals, brake shoes and fluid. We ran all new brake lines with proportioning valve over the whole truck. We also replaced the front and rear drive shaft u-joints. The frame of the truck was sanded down with 100 grit, 220 grit and then finished with 320 grit sandpaper before we sparyed it with a 3M Under Paint for preservation. We installed all new body bushings bolts, lock washers and nuts. It has a brand new 5 1/2 inch suspension lift with all new powder coated parts and Grade 8 bolts. Brand new shocks, steering stabilizer and boots. We had the radius arms sandblasted down then powder coated Bahama Blue and reinstalled with all new c-busings and radius bushings. We ordered new pre-runner bumpers, we had them powder coated and installed with new KC lights. We installed Brand New BF Goodrich 35x12.50x15 tires sitting on brand new 15x10 Ion Alloy Wheels that were static balanced with only inner weights installed. The inside of the Bronco was sanded down any metal that needed to be replaced was replaced, then it was sprayed with Ospho then Rhino Lined for preservation and durability. The front and rear seats are original Bronco seats that we had re-cushioned and re-upholstered by a local custom upholstery shop. We also had them recover the dash pad with a high end very durable leather that just stands out and looks phenomenal. The dash was completely taken apart and painted Wimbledon White out of the vehicle then re-installed. We do not tape the dash off and paint it as the finish product is half baked and unprofessional. We installed a new aftermarket RPM, oil pressure, voltage and temperature gauges as the old ones tend to not be as reliable. All the gauges are back lit blue at night. We removed the old broken original steering wheel and installed a new Grant chrome and black steering wheel. The doors were taken apart and the panels were painted Wimbledon White and doors put together with all new door handles inside and out, new armrest, new mirrors, new door cups, new door hinges and bolts. Stainless and grade 8 bolts were used wherever possible. All new complete weather seals were installed around the doors and inside the door window tracks and under the hard top. We also had the front windshield and gasket replaced. The outside of the truck was completely sanded down to bare metal, any and all rust was treated and fixed. We then primed the body and re-seam sealed all the seams on the truck and completely smoothed out body to above original factory standards and then painted it Bahama Blue using PPG paint. Then the body was wet sanded from 1,000 grit to 2,000 grit then to 3,000 grit sandpaper then high speed buffed and polished to a beautiful finish. Their were (4) coats of clear coat put on this truck. The hard top was taken off sanded down prepped and treated for any rust, and painted Wimbledon White using PPG paint and wet sanded out to 2,000 grit sandpaper and then high speed buffed. All paint was allowed to fully cure before the next step was done so we could get the best and long lasting paint job possible. This truck was very meticulously taken down and put back together properly. Their are many more parts that were put on and more things that were done to this bronco that I can not put them all in the listing. We have pictures of this bronco taken down and put back together so you will see that we are not claiming anything that has not been done to this truck. We will put a few pictures in the listing but can send more upon request. We build these Broncos as a personal hobby and enjoy doing them. We try to offer a top notch truck that is turn key ready to go with nothing that you will have to do to it but enjoy it. We have more Broncos coming up, the next one should be in about two weeks. If you have any questions or would like a custom build just shoot me a email with your number and I will call you and see what we can work out. We welcome anybody, inspector or inspection company to come look at this Bronco before the auction ends as you will see just how much has been put into this Bronco. This Bronco is offered AS-IS and a nonrefundable deposit of $1,000 due within 24 hrs of auction end. Look at my feedback and how long I have been on Ebay and bid with confidence. If you have been looking for a mint condition Bronco this is the one for you. All realistic offers will be considered, but this bronco is priced right for the quality of the build. If you have any question do not hesitate to ask.
On Jun-27-13 at 09:55:17 PDT, seller added the following information:Sorry it has been brought to my attention that there are no pics of VIN plate in glove box, backseat, or hardtop. I will try to add another picture. VIN plate is in glove box and matches the title. Backseat is original and recovered to match the front seats. Hardtop has been restored inside and out with new gaskets and lift gate prop rods.

Did a US automaker blow the whistle on Hyundai, Kia fuel economy issue?
Mon, 17 Dec 2012In all of the most hotly contested mainstream segments of the motoring universe, the difference of one mile per gallon averaged on a widow sticker can mean the difference between a sale and a walk-off - to say nothing of two or three mpg. So, when Hyundai and Kia were forced to reveal that many of their 40-mpg ratings were actually 38s and 37s, well, it made for big news.
It also, conceivably, made for a competitive disadvantage immediately, when the Korean automakers' products were being shopped versus the guys down the block. And it's that disadvantage that makes a recent story from Automotive News so juicy.
AN is reporting that Margo Oge, former head of the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Transportation and Air Quality, got a tip in 2010 that Hyundai/Kia were "cheating" to get its impressive fuel economy numbers. The tip, said Oge (who retired from the EPA this past September), came from a senior vice president from a domestic automaker. The source was credible enough for Oge to launch an audit of the Hyundai figures, which ultimately lead to the debacle that we reported on a few months ago, and that the Korean company has been trying to bounce back from ever since.
2015 Ford F-150 specs revealed, EcoBoost 2.7L to make 325 hp and 375 lb-ft [w/video]
Tue, 22 Jul 2014Our new man Greg Migliore is in attendance at a Ford media event at the Blue Oval's Dearborn, MI headquarters today, and he's reported in with a handful of the 2015 F-150 stats that we've been dying to know. Ford is slow-playing the news release here, but we can still offer up some interesting output and performance figures after half-year of waiting.
We have all be quite aware that Ford's shift to aluminum construction would save a lot of weight for F-150 models, and the results we're hearing now are duly impressive. For instance: in Super Crew trim, a 2015 F-150 is a whopping 732-pounds lighter than was its closest 2014-model-year equivalent. That's like hauling three middle-aged dudes to your bowling alley's league night for free. Polish your balls, guys.
Ford isn't willing to offer up any actual curb weights just yet, but if we take that 732-pound loss and extrapolate with the 5,128-pound curb weight of the 2014 F-150 Super Crew with the 3.7-liter V6, we can guesstimate that 2015 models will measure out in the 4,400-pound range. That's impressive.
Ford sued over alleged 3.5-liter EcoBoost defects
Thu, 16 May 2013Three Ford owners from Ohio have filed a lawsuit against the automaker over defects that they allege exist within the company's twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine. Automotive News reports that the lawsuit claims the engine "contained serious latent design, manufacturing, or assembly defects." Those defects, the suit claims, cause the vehicle to shake, misfire and lose power quickly.
Two of the plaintiffs, a married couple, own a 2010 Ford Taurus SHO, and allege they experienced a loss of power and stalling, while the third, an F-150 owner, claims he lost power while accelerating. In addition to the Taurus SHO and F-150, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine is also available in the Ford Flex, Explorer Sport and Lincoln MKT and MKS. Other three- and four-cylinder EcoBoost engines are not included in the suit. There have been no recalls associated with 3.5-liter V6 engine, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is currently not investigating the matter.
The plaintiffs, however, claim Ford has known about the problem, citing several technical service bulletins issued to dealers of the F-150 that suggest possible fixes. Ford had no comment for Automotive News, saying that it's yet to review the lawsuit, which was filed last Friday in Columbus, OH.
