Jensen Beach, Florida, United States

1969 Ford Bronco in very close to original condition.

"Uncut" with original wheels and matching engine, transmission, transfer case, interior, etc.

VIN Plate Decode:
Series U15 = Model U150 Wagon
Engine Code G = 8 Cylinder 302 CID (2V)
Transmission Code C = Ford 3.03 3 Speed Manual Shift
Axle Code 18 = 3.50 gear ratio



1969 was the first year for the 5.0L/ 302 CID Engine, and also the first year for Electric Windshield Wipers.

This Bronco originally came from Arizona as you can see from the original Ford "Finance AAD 419 BR Form" in the photographs.

It was restored in Texas and than brought to Florida. It will be sold with a Clear Texas Title. It is has a current Texas Inspection sticker.

This truck underwent a body off frame, complete mechanical and body dissassembly and reassembly restoration. In addition a 2 1/2" Skyjacker Lift Kit and Ford Bronco power steering were installed and rubber suspension parts were replaced with Urethane.

Everything from bumper to bumper received attention including but not limited to: engine rebuild, transmission rebuild, transfer case rebuild, complete brake system replacement, complete steering linkage replacment, new springs, new shocks, new power steering, front and rear axle rebuild, u-joints and drive shafts rebuilt, new weatherstrips, new quick ratio steering box.

The engine is in great shape, does not smoke, idles smooth, makes great power and has good compression in all cylinders.

The transmission shifts smooth and effortlessly with no grinding of gears or synchronization problems.

The brakes stop perfectly and in straight line with no pulling to the left or right.

The steering is light and very responsive and the truck drive down the road perfetly straight with no pull to the left or right, the tires are about 10% worn and are wearing perfectly showing no signs of any suspension or alignment related problems.

It does not have Air conditioning, but the heater works great.

It has an original Ford Accessory front winch bumper with a Warn 8000 winch that was installed in 1973.

The truck is very reliable and cruises perfectly at highway speeds thanks to the over sized 235/85 16 tires.

There are no vibrations and it rides so smoothly you would think you were in a more modern vehicle.

The engine, transmission, transfer case, axles etc. are all the original matching components.

With an expensive paint job, this Bronco would be worth nearly 2 times the asking reserve price.

If you want a Bronco that you can actually use without worrying about getting scratches or dings this is the truck for you.

This truck was re-built the way Ford intended it to be from the factory. A tough SUV that is as useful off road as it is on the highway.

If you want a $45,000 show truck at half the price, you are looking at the wrong Bronco.

The Bronco is located in Jensen Beach, Florida. A sleepy little fishing and surfing town in Florida's Treasure Coast, just north of Stuart Florida (the Marlin Fishing capital of the world). To get here you would fly into West Palm Beach and than travel north about an hour.

The truck is being offered for sale locally so I reserve the right to cancel all bids and end the auction early.

If you have any questions or would like to make an appointment to come see this Bronco in person, please call or text me at 305-283-8602.

Auction winner is expected to provide a non-refundable $2,000 deposit within 24 hours of auction end. Payment in full will be required within 1 week. Paypal will not be accepted for deposit or final payment. Preferred payment method will be cash in person or bank wire transfer. Payment by certified bank check may be accepted if the bank it is drawn on has a local office in Jensen Beach, Stuart, or Port St. Lucie Florida.

I can hold the vehicle at my home after the auction while you arrange shipping or travel to come pick it up, but if it will be longer than a couple of weeks I prefer it be transferred to a local secure storage facility at your expense. I will work with you in finding a secure place if necessary.

If this is not exactly what you are looking for, let me know and I may be able to revise this truck to meet your needs!

I have other Broncos and parts, so I can change wheels, bumpers, take off the winch, put stock small bumpers, even mount the shifter on the floor for you!

Heck, for a little more money I can even do a change of color!

The sky is the limit!

Ford Fusion production scaled back just 3 months after it was accelerated

Mon, 02 Dec 2013

Three months after kicking off production of the Ford Fusion at its Flat Rock, MI factory, Ford Motor Company is taking steps to trim output in the face of heavily discounted competition from Toyota and a growing supply of vehicles.
The addition of Fusion production in Flat Rock - which also builds the Mustang - was meant to be what pushed the handsome mid-sizer past its arch-nemesis, the Toyota Camry. An extra facility building Fusions was also meant to curb the growing demand for Ford's highly profitable sedan.
But with word that Flat Rock would take "approximately" one extra week off for the holidays combined with an 88-day supply of Fusions - reportedly due in no small part to what Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas called "aggressive discounting of the Camry" - some analysts are now beginning to wonder if Ford may have overextended itself by adding a second Fusion facility to the mix.

Did a US automaker blow the whistle on Hyundai, Kia fuel economy issue?

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

In all of the most hotly contested mainstream segments of the motoring universe, the difference of one mile per gallon averaged on a widow sticker can mean the difference between a sale and a walk-off - to say nothing of two or three mpg. So, when Hyundai and Kia were forced to reveal that many of their 40-mpg ratings were actually 38s and 37s, well, it made for big news.
It also, conceivably, made for a competitive disadvantage immediately, when the Korean automakers' products were being shopped versus the guys down the block. And it's that disadvantage that makes a recent story from Automotive News so juicy.
AN is reporting that Margo Oge, former head of the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Transportation and Air Quality, got a tip in 2010 that Hyundai/Kia were "cheating" to get its impressive fuel economy numbers. The tip, said Oge (who retired from the EPA this past September), came from a senior vice president from a domestic automaker. The source was credible enough for Oge to launch an audit of the Hyundai figures, which ultimately lead to the debacle that we reported on a few months ago, and that the Korean company has been trying to bounce back from ever since.

Ford F-35 Lightning II Edition Mustang appears at EAA Oshkosh

Sat, 26 Jul 2014

Ford is back at the Experimental Aircraft Association AirVenture air show in Oshkosh, WI, on July 31 auctioning off its seventh Mustang for charity, and this is one seriously mean looking 2015 'Stang. All of the money from the sale goes to give free introductory flights to young people to get them interested in aviation.
We recently saw this latest EAA Mustang as a sketch. However, it looks a whole lot more menacing in person. Dubbed the Ford F-35 Lightning II Edition Mustang, it takes liberal inspiration from Lockheed Martin's latest fighter jet, and the customization makes the pony car look ready for a role in Top Gun.
On the outside, the special Mustang wears titanium-color paint that's offset by a black and yellow stripe running from hood to rear. Out back things get really wild with a mix of bright yellow and black that flows diagonally all the way to the rear spoiler. The design is based on the livery of early production F-35s. If the rousing color scheme isn't enough to get you interested, the car also gets a carbon fiber front splitter and rear diffuser, lowered suspension and a set of custom 21-inch wheels with yellow brake calipers.
