THIS SWEET TURQUOISE '70 BRONCO IS ONE YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS OUT ON... VERY HIGH QUALITY BUILD ON AN ORIGINAL, RUST FREE, NEW MEXICO BODY!
There is no denying that the Early Ford Broncos are becoming highly sought after in the collector car market and rightfully so! These convertible 4-wheel drive rigs are a blast to drive and truly attract all the attention you can handle on the road and at the shows and cruise-ins. The Spring Car season is in full swing and Broncos are in high demand!! In fact we sold 5 awesome Broncos in the last month and finding the High Quality ones is the true challenge these days. There are plenty advertised that look pretty good in pics but finding the real gems is quite a different story. This Turquoise beauty is one of, if not the nicest one we have owned!! In fact we owned it a year ago and sold it to a great guy who had a beach house in Alabama and he wanted a cool Classic Bronco to have there to enjoy. Well, he called us recently to let us know he had sold his beach house and no longer had the space for the Bronco. He had loved it and really did not want to part with it but things happen. Without hesitation I told him we would love to have this Bronco back in our inventory. A few days later it arrived and it looks as nice as the day we sold it to him a year ago. I am quite certain this gorgeous '70 Bronco will draw quite a bit of interest and will sell quickly so do not hesitate if it catches your eye!!! This Bronco received a complete restoration about 5 years ago and is begging to be driven and enjoyed. If you have been searching for an amazing Early Bronco Classic that is ready to cruise to the beach, mountains, kids sporting event, or the next car show then get ready because "BIG TURQ" might just be the one you have been waiting for!!
The gentleman we originally acquired this '70 Bronco from was a true car enthusiast who had a summer home on Cape Cod. He thought this would be an awesome 4wd SUV to enjoy with his family in the summer time but when it arrived to him 3 years ago it was even nicer then he expected it to be and he treated it more like a show car then something he would just cruise around in. In fact he only put about 400 miles on this Bronco in the 3 years he owned it and, with several other toys in the garage, he could no longer justify keeping it so he decided it was time to pass it along to the next lucky owner.... maybe you!! This Bronco received an extensive restoration about 5 years ago that was done by a company in Oregon that specializes in Early Broncos. They had purchased this Bronco in New Mexico where it spent its whole life in a dry, rust free environment. It had all of its original body panels and was simply in need of a thorough cosmetic and mechanical restoration. A ton of money was poured in to the restoration and the end result is an amazing looking and driving 1970 Bronco that the next owner is going to be extremely pleased and proud to own. This is a Bronco you will be proud to take to any show or cruise-in and will surely win your share of trophies if that is something you enjoy. The entire drivetrain was completely rebuilt so this is also a Bronco you can get in, drive and enjoy!! I will do my best to provide enough large images, a video of the Bronco running, and an honest description to help you determine if this is the one to add to your stable!!! If you think it is, I highly recommend you call me to see if we can negotiate a price to get it in to your garage before the next car guy or gal does!! Sit back and enjoy!
"Big Turq's" body is in near flawless condition and the paint quality is fantastic and I would call it show quality although everyone in the hobby seems to have a different opinion on what constitutes show quality so I will simply say it is extremely nice and let you judge for yourself. This Bronco clearly lived in a dry rust-free climate and I was told it spent most, if not all its life in New Mexico prior to the restoration. The original paint was stripped down, body was etch primed and a two-stage professional paint job was performed. The restoration shop indicated that the Bronco had its original body panels with no sign of damage or accidents once the paint was stripped off and the body was disassembled for paint. Keep in mind this restoration was done 5 years ago, however, you would think it was just completed judging by the condition. The only flaws I noticed were a few small chips that were touched up on the top of the tailgate which most likely occurred when the hard top was removed. Body panels align extremely well and doors open and close easily and line up great. Bumpers, emblems and chrome trim look new. A very nice 4-point Family style roll bar was installed and the top rails were nicely padded. Custom Stainless trim pieces bolt of the bed rails for when the hard top is not being used which provides a nice finished look. This Bronco has a perfect, aggressive stance and look, and will definitely catch all the attention you can handle wherever you take it. Here is a walk around photo tour of the body: I personally think these Early Bronco Classics are best enjoyed with the hard top off but it is also nice to know that this sweet '70 does come with an original hard top that is in excellent condition if needed. As you will notice this hard top also has what is believed to be a rare, optional, factory luggage rack that is in great condition. We will ship the Bronco with the hard top on the truck for out of state buyers. We will also be including a White Bikini top that the new owner can use if desired as well. The windows in the hard top are a special glass called azuria which is supposed to keep out 95% of the direct heat and let in 65% of the visible light. The color also accents the color of the Bronco really nicely. Most people who buy these Broncos tend to remove the hard top and never use it. If that sounds like you just let us know and we will be glad to keep the hard top so it will not end up taking up space in your garage. Here is a look with the hard top installed.
Complimenting the beautiful Turquoise exterior is a custom light grey interior. Original front seats, door panels, and rear interior quarter panels are all covered in matching custom light grey color. The rear seat is an updated fold and tumble seat with seats belts. The front seats have three point seat belts installed for added safety. The interior floors were painted at the time of restoration with factory type insulation on the floor boards. Sound deadening mat was laid down in the rest of the interior and then a custom grey carpeting was installed. Great sounding Kenwood AM/FM/CD i-pod/mp3 stereo with remote was neatly installed in the dash and 4 Kenwood speakers were professionally installed in the rear quarter panels. There is also a CB located in the Tuffy Lock box center console although I am not sure if that works. There is also a new dash pad and the sun visors were dyed to match the interior. Custom Bronco steering wheel and Toms Bronco floor mats finish the interior off nicely. The dash was painted to match the interior and all of the gauges and lights appear to be working correctly. Overall the interior is in fantastic condition and ready for the shows. Here is a look inside: The engine bay hs been nicely detailed out as well and just about everything in the drivetrain of this sweet Bronco is new or rebuilt. The 302 was completely rebuilt and has a RV Cam for good low end power. There are less then 500 miles on the motor since it was rebuilt. Motor is topped off with a Holley off-road 390cfm 4bbl carburetor. All new distributor, cap, ignition, wires, belts, hoses, radiator and billet pulleys were installed at time of restoration as well. Nice dress up kit with Ford Racing Valve covers and original air cleaner. Great tone from the Magnaflow exhaust exiting the dual pipes that was done at restoration. Steering is a breeze thanks to the brand new delphi steering box and saginaw power steering pump. New Power brake system from Toms Bronco Parts was installed making stopping a breeze as well. The E-brake assembly was redone and works well. This Bronco pulls nicely though the gears thanks to brand new clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing and the rebuilt NP 435 4-speed Transmission. Dana 20 front transfer case and 9" rear end were also rebuilt. First gear is pretty much a granny gear which is great in those steep hill situations. This Bronco is fun to drive at all speeds and handles extremely well at highway speeds as well as on local roads. Suspension front and rear is tight and right thanks to all new components including tie-rods, knuckles and ball joints, 11-pack rear leaf springs, spring bushings, shocks all around and much more! This Bronco also has a great stance thanks to the 3 1/2 inch lift kit from Toms Bronco Parts and Pro Comp. This Bronco rides great thanks in part to the almost brand new set of Ultra Eagle II Alloy wheels wrapped in Wild Country 33x12.5x15 All Terrain Rubber. The spare is the same and mounted on the original spare tire holder. Undercarriage was highly detailed and painted to match and shows very nicely. Floorpans are all rock solid. This Bronco drives and handles beautifully and is ready to hit the roads, beach, or wherever you want to go... "Big Turq" is ready to go!!! Take a look and then be sure to listen to the short video to hear Big Turq start up and running.

On May-05-14 at 12:11:21 PDT, seller added the following information: It has been brought to my attention that in the video I mention it has front disc brakes. This is incorrect. It does have power brakes but they are drum all around. The fact is that the brakes on this Bronco work better then any other Power front disc Brake Bronco we have had so there is definitely no worry about how well this Bronco will stop.....easy and straight! Keep the questions and comments coming. Thank you!! |

Should heavy-duty pickup trucks have window stickers with fuel mileage estimates?
Sat, Sep 23 2017If you were to stroll into your nearest Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Nissan, or Ram dealership, you'd find a bunch of pickup trucks. Most of those would have proper window stickers labeled with things like base prices, options prices, location of manufacture, and, crucially, fuel economy estimates. But you'd also run across a number of heavy-duty trucks with no such fuel mileage data from the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA doesn't require automakers to publish the valuable miles-per-gallon measurement for vehicles with gross weight ratings that exceed 8,500 pounds. That makes it difficult for consumers to compare behemoths powered by turbocharged diesel engines – between one another, and between smaller, gasoline-fueled trucks. Consumer Reports doesn't think it should be this way, and it's spearheading an effort (PDF link) to get the government to require manufacturers to publish fuel economy estimates. In its own testing, CR found that heavy-duty pickups powered by Ford's Power Stroke, GM's Duramax, and FCA's Cummins diesel engines (which doesn't include the Ram's EcoDiesel) get worse fuel mileage than their lighter-duty gas-powered siblings. We're not so sure HD-truck buyers are unaware of this fact – big diesels don't really come into their own until big loads are placed in their beds or attached to their trailer hitches. Under heavy workloads, the diesel trucks will almost certainly return greater efficiency than a similar gas-powered truck. What's more, HD trucks with lumbering diesels in general make the driver feel more confident while towing due to greater torque at low engine RPM than gas trucks. They also offer greater max-weight limits. Still, we agree EPA fuel mileage estimates should be offered for heavy-duty pickups. And we think the comparisons provided by Consumer Reports might be interesting to potential buyers. Click here to see the results of CR's tests, and let us know what you think using the poll below.

Ken Block shows us around his Ford F-150 RaptorTrax
Thu, Jan 22 2015From his Fiesta HFHV to his '65 Mustang Hoonicorn, the inimitable Ken Block has some awesome machinery at his disposal. But arguably the coolest of the bunch is the RaptorTrax. Based on the previous-gen Ford F-150 SVT Raptor - the one with the steel frame and V8 engine - Block's back country snowmobile on steroids packs a set of tracks at each corner, a full roll cage, equipment rack, lighting, jump seats, survival gear... everything he could need for a trip off road. The Gymkhana master showcased the beast a couple of months ago on the slopes of Baldface in Nelson, BC, but now he's followed up with a less eye-popping but more informative clip in which he shows us everything his RaptorTrax has to offer.
