Vehicle Description

 

Hi everyone and thank you for taking the time to look and hopefully bid on my Bronco.

  Here is the basic story on it.

It is a 1978 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT. I have owned it for 4 years. It has many rare options and has nothing wrong with it, AT ALL! It looks, drives, starts, and runs perfect. Everything works as it should, because almost the whole truck is new.

The engine is a 351m New block with about 600 miles.

The transmission is a c6 rebuilt with about 5000 miles.

The transfer case had new seals and bearings put in when the transmission was rebuilt.                            

The front and rear axles are rebuilt with 5000 miles.    ......................

The entire brake system is brand new with about 5000 miles.

The radiator is brand new.

The whole truck was taken down to bare metal. The only rust that was in the truck was on the hood, bottom of the tailgate, and on the inside bottom of the doors. The hood is a brand new NOS from NPD. The other rusty metal was cut out and new metal welded in. The paint is mirror flat and consists of 3coats of Eastwood company’s rust encapsulation (to prevent rust),3 coats of sealer, 3coats of HOK Base white mixed with micro glass flake and pearl, 5 coats of clear then wet sanded and buffed.

Every piece of trim, emblems, chrome is brand new. The whole interior is new accept for the locking hood latch, sport steering wheel and roll bar(bar was painted white to match).The wheels and tires are brand new as well.

This Bronco was built with pride!!! All work was done by professional shops. I have every receipt for everything I have ever done. I have put over $23,000 in it and can prove it. I also have photo documentation. It has been in 4 car shows. Took home 3, 1st places and a second place trophy. The second place trophy was won at Carlisle All Truck Nationals which is the largest truck show on the east coast. My Bronco is also featured in an issue of Bronco Driver Magazine. It has never been off road since completed in July of 2006. It was built as a show truck not a mud truck! Although it would have no problem with off road.

If you win my Bronco you will without a doubt be very  happy!

Please, I encourage anyone who can come and see it to do so! Call me anytime, just leave a message if I don’t answer. 763-226-0166. Any questions or concerns please contact me. My name is Les.

The only things different now is the lenses are all clear now instead of red and amber(I have all of the colored lenses also. They are also brand new) And it now has new wheels and tires. Again email or call with any Q's. The title is clear and in my hand.

Ford Escort testing, may be bound for Europe

Tue, 01 Apr 2014

There has been little news about Ford's China-focused Escort concept since debuting at last year's Shanghai Motor Show, but the no-frills sedan has shown its camouflaged face again during cold weather testing in Northern Sweden. While far from a guarantee, the test location might hint that the Blue Oval plans to market the car outside of Asia.
The Escort's black robe and zebra paint make it hard to tell if anything specific has changed about the design, but the shape of the sedan looks close to what was shown in Shanghai. Under the disguise, you can still make out the hexagonal front grille from the concept. When Ford announced the model, the company said that the design wasn't supposed to be "arrogant or pretentious," and it certainly achieved that. The engine range is still a mystery, but it seems safe to expect small, economy-focused powertrains.
A report from last year indicated that Ford may be considering broadening the new Escort beyond Asia and possibly even selling it in Europe. The fact that the company brought it to Sweden for testing could bolster that argument. A release date hasn't been set yet, but the automaker has promised 15 new products for China by 2015. The basic sedan could be on the road soon.

First 500 European Ford Mustangs reserved in 30 seconds [w/video]

Thu, 29 May 2014

We're pretty sure that any initial concerns Ford had about selling the redesigned Mustang in Europe have been lessened considerably, after the first 500 Euro-spec 2015 Mustangs were been reserved in just 30 seconds. Moreover, 9,300 people attempted to snag one of the coveted orders for the all-new muscle car. Yes, Mustang, you should do quite well across the pond.
The registration event was held during the UEFA (pronounced yu-eh-fa) Champions League Final between Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid.
"We knew there was huge excitement building for the new Ford Mustang coming to Europe, but the response during the UCL Final was overwhelming," said Roelant de Waard, VP of marketing, sales and service for Ford's European outfit. "It was a truly special way to kick off the Ford Mustang era in Europe."

Ford F-150 EcoBoost in NHTSA probe for acceleration issue

Tue, 28 May 2013

According to Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching a probe into 400,000 Ford F-150 models over possible acceleration problems. According to the article, NHTSA has received 95 reports "alleging incidents of reduced engine power during hard accelerations" on 2011 to 2013 F-150 models equipped with the company's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine.
Automotive News reports that Ford has issued three technical service bulletins "related to intermittent stumble/misfire on acceleration from highway cruise in humid or damp conditions," according to the government agency's documents. About one third of the 95 reports NHTSA has received cited humid or rainy conditions when these problems allegedly occurred.
These technical service bulletins have allowed dealers to address a "condition related to moisture accumulation in the charge air cooler during extended highway cruising at constant throttle in humid or damp conditions," AN reports, citing NHTSA documents. Furthermore, the TSB outlines details for "reprogramming the powertrain control module with the latest calibration and installing a new CAC and air deflector plate."
