I will do my best to provide enough large images, a video of it running and an honest description to help you decide if this Bronco belongs in your stable. Sit back and enjoy!! This Yellow beauty is a Bronco that is a bit more familiar to me then some of the other Early Bronco Classics we have had had in our inventory. The reason is that this is the 2nd time we have owned this awesome classic. We originally acquired this gem a little over 2 years ago from a guy who had recently moved to Oregon after living in California. He had purchased this Bronco about 6 years prior to that from the gentleman in California who had the high end restoration done. The story was that this Bronco had lived its entire live in Southern California. The original DSO code is 71 which was Los Angeles and when it arrived to us it was obvious this Bronco had lived a great, rust free life. This was actually only the 2nd Early Bronco Classic we had owned and it sold quickly to a great guy in North Carolina who was in the Military and was looking for something to enjoy with his wife and kids on sunny days. He did so for 2 years but then found out he was being deployed to Africa for at least a year. He called me and the following day I wired him payment and made arrangements to bring this beauty back to the Atlanta, GA area. She looked just like she did 2 years prior....gorgeous!! This baby is going to absolutely thrill the next owner and it truly drives and handles as good as it looks! Maybe that lucky person will be you?? As you will see in the pictures below the body is in amazing condition. Keep in mind the restoration was done about 9 years ago but as you will se it has held up beautifully with little sign of age. When it was restored the color was changed from a Ginger color to the eye-catching Yellow. This Bronco just looks right...perfect for the beach, summer cruises, mountain drives, local car shows and cruise-ins or trip with the family. I do not see any signs of rust repair and the body appears to wear all of its original sheet metal. Body panels are extremely straight and line up beautifully. Weatherstripping was all replaced at time of restoration. White fiberglass fender flares accent the yellow body nicely. Paint quality is awesome overall and the only real flaws on the body are the same ones it had 2 years ago which are a few minor chips that have been touched up. Windows roll up and down nicely. There are 2 small rock chips in the windshield that were there 2 years ago and are not a big deal. 4-point roll bar looks great. This was an original Ranger edition which included additional chrome trim around the windows, hard top, and grill area. Chrome trim, emblems and bumpers look great with just minor wear to the rear bumper chrome. Overall, as you will see, this Bronco is ready for the shows where it will win plenty of trophies if that is what you enjoy, or just drive and enjoy! Here is a walk around tour of the body: These Broncos are a blast to enjoy with the Hard top removed and driven as a convertible. We always remove the hard tops and drive and enjoy them with a Bikini top as often as possible. This Bronco does look great with the hard top on if needed as you will see in the pics below. The hard top is in overall very good condition however it must have had some lights installed many years ago as there were some holes on the top which were repaired but the top was never fully refinished so if you want it to look as good as the rest of the Bronco it would need to be finished and repainted. The glass and chrome trim are in great shape. If you do not think you will use the hard top we would be willing to include a new White soft top instead. This will be up to the buyer. We also will be including the black Bikini top that you see pictured as well. Complimenting the beautiful yellow exterior is a great looking off-white stock interior. Seat covers are in fantastic condition and very comfortable. Door panels both front and rear look great and stereo speakers were professionally installed throughout. The floor of this Bronco has a great vinyl mat that was installed years ago which makes it really easy to clean out after a day at the beach. dash pad looks great and original steering wheel has a nice leather wrap on it. All of the gauges and lights are functioning correctly. When we sold this Bronco 2 years ago the speedometer was jumping around quite a bit. The gentleman who bought it decided to replace the speedometer with a rebuilt original from Toms Broncos and it was set at zero miles when he got it. You will see it reads a little over 700 miles which is close to the total miles he put on it over the 2 years he owned it. He wrote me a otter that will be include mentioning this. As you will see this Bronco also has an aftermarket Air Conditioning system that works great and blows nice and cold for those of you in hotter climates. Seat belts for both front and rear passengers. Great upgraded stereo neatly installed with CD player. Original glove box door has the Trim Tag with Vin# and original trim codes. As you will see the interior looks fantastic and is show ready as well. Have a look: This Bronco truly runs and drives as good as it looks. When we first purchased it a little over 2 years ago we were told that the original 302 V8 had been rebuilt and had about 11,000 miles on it at that time. The gentleman we sold it to put about 1000 more miles on it so the motor is still extremely strong and fresh. She starts up easily and will run at any speed with no overheating issues. This Bronco is an absolute joy to drive and we recently ran it up and down the highway for about 15 miles to stretch her legs and she is definitely ready for the spring and summer fun with her new owner. The C-4 Automatic transmission shifts smoothly. We felt a slight vibration when it first arrived which we discovered was due to slightly worn U-joints which we immediately replaced and solved the vibration. Handling is a breeze thanks to the power steering and this Bronco tracks straight. Of course it is still a 38 year old 4WD lifted Bronco but I would put my 19 year old daughter behind the wheel with no worries. She stops great too thanks to the Power front disc brakes. Suspension was all gone through years ago and this Bronco handles the road beautifully. It has a 3.5 inch suspension lift that was done right! The front tires were showing wear when it arrived to us so we had a brand new set of expensive BFG All Terrain TA tires installed. Of course the 4WD engages and functions properly. Dana 44 Front transfer case and 9" rear. The engine bay has been nicely detailed so you can pop the hood proudly at any event. Both front and rear fuel tanks work correctly. The undercarriage looks as good as the rest of the truck and it is rust free and rock solid. Floorpans look fantastic with no patches or rust issues. Be sure to watch the video below to hear this Bronco start up and running. Nice tone from the Magna Flow exhaust! Turn the key and go in this Classic Bronco!!! HERE IS A SHORT VIDEO SO YOU CAN HEAR THIS SWEET BRONCO START UP AND RUNNING (CLICK THE ARROW TO START):
Hopefully you can see that this '71 Bronco has been professionally restored to a very high level but is also one that was built to be driven and enjoyed. We are confident that the next owner is going to be absolutely thrilled with this Bronco and it is definitely going to be a smart investment as the Early Broncos are on the radars of all the serious car collector enthusiasts.

Next Ford Mustang to drop 400 pounds
Thu, 15 Aug 2013The Ford Mustang is already the lightest of the current crop of muscle cars, at around 3,600 pounds for a GT coupe with the six-speed manual transmission. That's almost 260 pounds less than a Chevrolet Camaro SS and about 450 pounds less than a Dodge Challenger R/T, which means the Mustang has a pretty big advantage when it comes to handling, braking, accelerating and economy. More good news: The next Mustang will be even lighter.
According to a report from Edmunds, the sixth-generation Mustang, which is set to debut at the 2014 North American International Auto Show, will shed an additional 400 pounds of body fat. That 11-percent weight reduction will be thanks to lightweight materials, with a particular focus on using stronger, but less material in construction. Aluminum will feature heavily, but Edmunds' inside source warns that there is "nothing terribly exotic" coming to the original pony car.
The other big news is that the new Mustang will be smaller overall. It's going to be 15-inches shorter than the 188.5-inch Mustang on sale today, while it'll also be 6.5 inches narrower. Shorter overhangs, both in the front and rear, are also good signs for those that want an agile Mustang.
A tribute to William Clay Ford
Tue, 11 Mar 2014The passing of William Clay Ford has been a big event for the company he spent most of his life helping run. Ford spent 57 years working for his family's company. Considering the Blue Oval has been around for over 100 years, WCF's passing is the end of an era for the Dearborn-based manufacturer.
Ford's YouTube channel has issued a short memorial video highlighting the life of the longest-lived grandson of company founder Henry Ford. It follows William Clay from his time as a boy, showing him alongside his grandfather, through his younger years, and into his twilight, as the patriarch of the Ford family.
Take a look below for this touching memorial video on William Clay Ford.
Ford idling Michigan Assembly Plant to trim Focus, C-Max supply
Tue, 22 Oct 2013Ford will be putting the brakes on production at its Michigan Assembly Plant in Wayne, MI, idling production during the weeks of October 28 and December 16. Ford is citing the first drop in US sales in 27 months, a 4.2-percent dip in September, as the impetus for trimming their supplies, according to Automotive News.
Ford's deft management of its supplies has been part of its success over the years, and seeing supplies of Focus and C-Max, the two vehicles built at MAP, rise from 58 and 108 days, respectively, to 71 and 122 days over the span of a month was apparently all that was need to justify the trimming. As AN points out, the rule of thumb for many automakers is to maintain a 60-day supply of vehicles.
"Ford has been focused on keeping their pricing in check. Their operating margin is in double digits. Nobody else is there and they're obviously very proud of that," Alan Baum, an auto analyst with Baum & Associates told AN. Keeping the supply chain operating smoothly and not increasing supplies too much is crucial to that healthy profit margin. After all, a large supply lowers prices ,which, in turn, cuts profit. So while this news might not be great for employees at MAP, who now have an extra two weeks of vacation time, it's far from a sign of problems in Dearborn. Quite the opposite, actually.
