1968 Ford Bronco. Had a frame off restoration around 12 years ago. Truck was stripped to the metal and epoxy primed. 289 V8 with Edelbrock Performer 289 cam, intake, timing chain kit, Edelbrock Performer 500CFM carb. High flow water pump, Be Cool aluminum radiator. C4 Trans and transfer case were rebuilt during the restoration. Has a stock 73 Bronco automatic steering column. The paint is decent but not perfect. There are chips and a few cracks(please see below pics and I will point out the flaws) It has not been driven much since the restoration, but when it has it was mostly off road. The inside floor and bed sides, and the underside of the fenders have been Linexed. All the glass, window tracks, window & door seals, and light lenses have been replaced. Heater box resealed. Rebuilt door hinges. Centec wiring harness, power steering, power front disc brakes, extended braded steel lines between axle and body, 2 1/2" suspension lift with Wild horses 11 pack rear leafs and progressive front springs. Ball joints & u joints, front & rear drive shaft and front axle bushings(suspension &body) are all replaced. Front has 7 degree camber bushings, which put the camber back into factory spec. Ford 9" rear end, Dana 44 front, both were rebuilt during restoration, and had limited slip units installed. Front and rear pre runner style bumpers with Hella lights on front. I believe they came from Tom's. 32" BFG's, American Racing Wheels, Warn hubs, 24 gallon gas tank, satellite radio, runs like a top, and is an absolute beast off road.

Below are pics of the car, and then flaws after that. The red on the diff pumpkin and back of the tank is not rust, it's red mud from Wheeler Geological Area. It's a nice Bronco, but it's not a trailer queen or a concours restoration. It was built to 4 wheel and that's what was done with it. Any question will be routed to my associate handling the sale. The truck has a Colorado title, and is currently in Pasadena California, where an appointment can be set up for a viewing. It is being offered at 32,500 with offers being considered. $1000 deposit required upon commitment to buy, with remainder due before release of vehicle by cash or cashier's check. All cashier's checks will have to be verified as good before release of vehicle.

And now the paint, The drivers door has cracks by the handle and mirror, the hood on the front corners, the left side of the hood just behind the corner, chip on right fender, chip on right door lock, and chip by right tail light.

Crowdsource funding push on to save historic Ford buildings

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

Detroit has no shortage of old, abandoned buildings, both within the city and in the surrounding communities. Few, though, have the historical significance of the old Ford Highland Park facility. Home to the very first moving assembly line, Highland Park was designed by the legendary Albert Kahn, and was one of the homes of the Model T.
Now, the Woodward Avenue Action Association is attempting to buy both the 40,000-square-foot admin building, which is located off the historic Woodward Avenue, and an 8,000-square-foot garage. The WAAA's goal is to convert the buildings into an automotive heritage center. The Detroit News spoke to the interim director of the WAAA, Deborah Schutt, who commented, "[Metro Detroit has] not been very good at telling our own story. So we've decided, let's pull everything together and tell our story."
The WAAA made an offer of $550,000 to buy the two buildings, and has $400,000 from the Michigan Department of Transportation and another $15,000 from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation. It's trying to raise a further $125,000 through crowd-sourcing, starting a campaign called "Five Dollars A Day," after old Hank Ford's $5-per-day wage for line workers.

Ford files trademark application for 'Model E'

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

In early December, Ford filed an application with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the name "Model E." Historically, Ford never produced a Model E, and while automakers are known to file for trademarks they never use, some have wondered if the application might be used for a concept car.
Based on other recent events, though, it could be a legal move. In 2000 Ford sued an online start-up called Model E over the similarity of that name to Ford's industry-shaping Model T, but the judge dismissed the case citing lack of proper grounds. In August 2013, Tesla applied for trademark registration for Model E, and at the time, Ford said it would review the application. Tesla actually made two applications for Model E, one for automobiles and structural parts therefore, the other for "providing maintenance and repair services for automobiles," and there are plenty of theories about what the name could be applied to.
The Published for Opposition date for Tesla's applications is December 31, 2013, after which anyone who thinks they'd be harmed by Tesla being granted the trademark gets 30 days to register their issues. This is just speculation, but Ford's application - which was filed for automobiles only - might be about protecting what it sees as unwelcome encroachment on the name Model T, protection it wasn't able to enforce before when the stakes were only online and much smaller.

Ford Recalls '13 Escape For 11th Time

Fri, Aug 15 2014

Only in dealer showrooms for two years now, the 2013 Ford Escape has already been recalled for safety hazards 11 times. The most recent recall for the beleaguered vehicle came Friday, when the company announced it was recalling almost 160,000 Escapes and Focus ST hatchbacks from the '13 and '14 model years because of a wiring problem that could cause the engine to stall. Caused by a faulty wiring harness, Ford said the defect could result in reduced power, hesitation or outright stalling. The company said it knew of no crashes or injuries caused by the flaw. Customers affected will be notified by mail. It was the latest problem for a vehicle beset by recalls from the moment it started rolling off the assembly lines. Starting on July 6, 2012, the '13 Escapes have been recalled for an assortment of problems, including multiple hazards with fuel lines that could result in engine fires, fluid leaks in the engine that could also result in fires, problems with engines overheating, delays in airbags deploying and more.
