About 8 years ago I got this Bronco, had it painted, and began putting some new parts on it and upgrading parts as they broke.
My intentions were to build a trail truck that can be driven on the street. It's street manners are not perfect, but I have driven it at interstate speeds to club events and just cruising. It could easily be improved with an alignment and a tighter steering box. The 4.56 gears and C4 transmission make it run around 2800 to 3200 rpms on the interstate.
This is not a "restored" Bronco, and has been driven on the trail., so expect some scuffs, and scrapes and minor rust. The tub is solid and professionally sprayed with LINEX in the passenger compartment. The doors are not the best fitting doors but they do close and seal. These are the doors with the removable window frame. One of the window frames is starting to crack (see Pictures) but could easily be welded. Wheels and tires show some trail scars. Tires have Dyna Beads in them for Balancing... was tired of losing wheel weights on the trails. Best Top Soft top with Tinted windows. Top is in really good condition except for two small tears shown in the pictures, which could be fixed.
It is a 67 Truck with Dana 44 Front and Big Bearing 9 inch Rear axle. Dana 20 Transfer Case with Twin Stick Shifters. 6 point roll bar with a sound bar. Protofab front bumper with winch and rear bumper with Tire Carrier. Has provision on it to add the gas can carrier on the other side of the Bumper. I have a clear Virginia Title. I also have a couple of "take off" parts that will go with the truck. The Fuel system is done with the "Low Pressure, Accumulator high pressure pump" setup. It has dual gas tanks with an "unconventional" switching set up. The truck will run off of either tank, but while running off of the smaller tank the return lines return to the main tank. So in short, you can run off the small tank for a little while, but then have to switch back to the main tank, because the fuel has been transferred back over to the Main Tank... I just never bought a Switching port that had provisions for the return Lines. The main tank is a 23 Gallon Tank.
Below is a list of some parts that are on the truck:
Speed density 5.0L Fuel injected Engine out of a mustang
Warn 9.5 winch
36x13.50x15 Radial IROKs with a Bias Ply Spare that has never been on the street.
C4 Transmission
4.56 Gears with Detroit Locker Front and rear
31 Spline rear axels
5.5 James duff Suspension LIft with extended radius arms
1 inch wildhorses body lift
Twin Stick Shifter for transfer case Manual locking Hubs
James duff Diff guards
BC Broncos Steering Links
Power Steering
Hydroboost brakes - Front Disc, Rear drum
Linex interior
1 inch wildhorses body lift
Buyer is 100% Responsible for Pickup. I have a trailer so I can deliver or meet someone within approx. 80 Miles of Richmond Virginia for a small fee.

Bring back the Bronco! Trademarks we hope are actually (someday) future car names
Tue, Mar 17 2015Trademark filings are the tea leaves of the auto industry. Read them carefully – and interpret them correctly – and you might be previewing an automaker's future product plans. Yes, they're routinely filed to maintain the rights to an iconic name. And sometimes they're only for toys and clothing. But not always. Sometimes, the truth is right in front of us. The trademark is required because a company actually wants to use the name on a new car. With that in mind, here's a list of intriguing trademark filings we want to see go from paperwork to production reality. Trademark: Bronco Company: Ford Previous Use: The Bronco was a long-running SUV that lived from 1966-1996. It's one of America's original SUVs and was responsible for the increased popularity of the segment. Still, it's best known as O.J. Simpson's would-be getaway car. We think: The Bronco was an icon. Everyone seems to want a Wrangler-fighter – Ford used to have a good one. Enough time has passed that the O.J. police chase isn't the immediate image conjured by the Bronco anymore. Even if we're doing a wish list in no particular order, the Bronco still finds its way to the top. For now (unfortunately), it's just federal paperwork. Rumors on this one can get especially heated. The official word from a Ford spokesman is: "Companies renew trademark filings to maintain ownership and control of the mark, even if it is not currently used. Ford values the iconic Bronco name and history." Trademarks: Aviator, AV8R Company: Ford Previous Use: The Aviator was one of the shortest-run Lincolns ever, lasting for the 2003-2005 model years. It never found the sales success of the Ford Explorer, with which it shared a platform. We Think: The Aviator name no longer fits with Lincoln's naming nomenclature. Too bad, it's better than any other name Lincoln currently uses, save for its former big brother, the Navigator. Perhaps we're barking up the wrong tree, though. Ford has made several customized, aviation themed-Mustangs in the past, including one called the Mustang AV8R in 2008, which had cues from the US Air Force's F-22 Raptor fighter jet. It sold for $500,000 at auction, and the glass roof – which is reminiscent of a fighter jet cockpit – helped Ford popularize the feature. Trademark: EcoBeast Company: Ford Previous Use: None by major carmakers.
Detroit's new fleet of donated police cars have safety issues [w/video]
Wed, 23 Oct 2013In a show of generosity in mid-August, Detroit's business leaders donated $8 million to the Police Department and Fire Department in order to buy 100 new police vehicles and 23 EMS ambulances. But now officers have discovered - and complained - that the police vehicles have glaring safety issues, Deadline Detroit reports. It is not made clear what models of the fleet vehicles - which include police versions of the Ford Taurus, the Chevrolet Caprice and the Dodge Charger - are affected by the safety issues.
Officers reportedly have complained that the Plexiglass partition separating front-seat officers and back-seat prisoners is easily breached, and that the front passenger seat is installed too close to the dashboard. Prisoners who manage to writhe out of their handcuffs can bend the Plexiglass and reach into the cockpit, and sitting too close to the dashboard can render airbags more dangerous and make officers more vulnerable to injury in a crash.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association, received the complaints and reportedly said the vehicles would get safety updates addressing the issues. But Deadline Detroit reports that it checked some of the offending police cars and, as of the last few days, they hadn't been updated.
Here's what the UAW will be angling for in next year's contract negotiations
Mon, Dec 15 2014The United Auto Workers union is about to enter a new round of negotiations with the Detroit Three automakers, and this time, the focus is on the end of the two-tier wage system. Introduced in 2007, the two-tier wage system was enacted to allow General Motors, Ford and Chrysler to categorize its hourly employees under two categories: Tier 1 for veteran employees with full rights and benefits, and Tier 2 for short-term or entry-level employees compensated under a different schedule. The idea was that the system would permit the automakers to invest more in their plants and hire new employees as part of their respective recovery plans without being saddled with all the costs associated with hiring full-time employees. Now that the automakers are (more or less) back on their proverbial feet, however, the UAW wants to see an end to the two-tier system, and will likely make that a center-point of its negotiations next year to replace the current arrangement that is scheduled to end in September 2015. Not all members of the UAW will necessarily be interested in ending the two-tier system, however. According to The Detroit News, some Tier 1 workers may be more interested in negotiating a raise in their hourly rate – something which they haven't received in almost a decade. Tier 2 workers, meanwhile, may be more motivated to keep the tiered system in place, as their arrangement includes provisions for profit-sharing payments that have seen the automakers pay out billions to so-called short-term employees in lump-sum payments. Reconciling the two competing demands from two categories of union members and presenting a united front in negotiations may prove the biggest challenge for the UAW's new president, Dennis Williams. And with the right to strike – something which was suspended during the last round of negotiations in 2011 – the union has a bigger bargaining chip in its pocket.
