Uncut 1968 Ford Bronco 289 V-8 91k Miles on 2040-cars
Cedar Park, Texas, United States
|
First, look at all the Broncos that have cut rear fenders. I'm guessing 75% have the rear fenders cut. This is a restored 1968 Ford Bronco. This is not a frame off restoration but is very well done. 289 V-8 with 91,000 (believed to be original) miles. Rebuilt engine at 85,389 bored out .30 over (tried .10 but could not get the back cylinders perfectly round). No performance parts were installed, only tried to bring it back to factory condition. 3 speed manual transmission that shifts and pulls excellent. Clutch replaced and pressure plate resurfaced at 81,000 miles. 4x4 works fine and the truck is a serious head turner. Replaced both fuel tanks with polyethylene tanks and new sending units. Interior finished in original style and material. Frame cleaned, Loctite Rust Extend applied (not rusty, just precautionary), painted black. Floor pans are original and only had some small pinholes that were tack welded before front section was sprayed with bedliner. Interior rear section had no problems (not so much as a dent) and was only painted. Floor heat shield/matting applied before new carpet was installed. Truck is painted in the correct, original 1968 Ford Meadowlark Yellow as determined by the VIN in 2011. New door handles, door mirrors, lenses were installed. 3 core aluminum radiator installed. New fuel pump, carburetor, oil pump and water pump at time of engine rebuild. Power disk brake conversion installed in 2009 but master cylinder has leaked and caused paint to come off the fender as seen in the pictures. Flow Masters Dual exhaust and power disk brake conversion are the only items not original to the truck. It has a manual choke (I preferred this set up versus an auto choke on the carburetor). Fuel gauge does not work but it has two fuel tanks. I fill up when one runs out so I never worry about the gauge working. Vacuum wipers weak so I would replace with an electric conversion. Most of the interior knobs and cables have been replaced. New Goodyear Wrangler 235/75 15 tires with less than 1,000 miles. One small oil leak from dipstick tube in oil pan. I have owned this truck for 12 years and slowly had much of the work completed. It has a full hard top in very good condition but I did not restore it since I leave the Bronco in the garage with the top off. I still have some extra replacement parts as I bought more than one of many items such as door seals. I have the original front drums if you'd like them. There are a few nicks here but I have tuch up paint for when those mishaps take place. Insured at $20k through Haggerty Classic Car Insurers and they have to approve the amount of coverage requested. I would drive this truck across the country without any concern. It was my everyday driver when I first got it and drove it from Nashville, TN to New Orleans when I moved in 2002 in one day without any problems at all. It is currently tagged and inspected in Austin, Texas and I drive it about two weekends a month. I'm sure I've forgotten items that have been taken care of but I think you get the picture. You can email me with questions or if you prefer, give me a call (985) 774-9609. Bronco is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end this auction at anytime prior to the end of the auction unless the reserve has been met. Shipping, delivery and transportation of vehicle at buyer's sole expense. I can deliver to a shipping depot in Austin, Texas only. $500 non refundable deposit via paypal within 48 hours after auction close. Balance to be paid via personal check, money order, cash or certified bank draft within 7 days of auction close. Vehicle released after all funds have been paid. Clear Texas title ready for transfer. Thanks for looking. Phil |

Thu, 14 Nov 2013Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).

Chip Foose tastefully enhances his personal Ford GT
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Typically, we'd expect a vehicle from 2006 to fall well short of a more modern vehicle, both in terms of performance and style. Of course, the Ford GT is not your average offering from the Bush era. That's doubly true when the 2006 GT in question belongs to one Chip Foose.
Purchased by his wife as a 50th birthday present, Foose is showing his custom, personalized GT at the 2014 SEMA Show. The 5.4-liter supercharged V8 breathes a bit easier thanks to a full Magnaflow Performance exhaust, but Foose's GT isn't all about the performance.
Instead, the car customizer extraordinaire has focused on tasteful aesthetic enhancement, tweaking the rear end by removing the bumper and trimming the frame extensions. The wheels, meanwhile, are one-off aluminum alloys, designed by Foose himself. Like the stripes, the wheels feature orange accenting.
