1971 Ford Bronco on 2040-cars
Armona, California, United States
Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : burchard73@zoho.com .
Hi, I'm selling my personal frame off resto-mod Bronco. I purchased this for the sole purpose to build an
incredible show car and weekend driver. The restoration took almost two years and no expense spared. The body was
removed and the entire bronco taken apart. The body was blasted and the panels that needed to be replaced were. Not
necessarily from any issues but wanted to have the best canvas to start with. The body was then sealed and sent to
the body shop for paint. There was over 120 hours spent on making sure that the Lamborghini paint was going to be
prefect. The under side was coated with a bedliner type paint. The frame was sent to blast as well and was painted
with a frame gloss black paint. A disc brake conversion and new brake and fuel lines were installed as well as all
body mounts, shocks, gas tank and skid plate, springs (3 1/2), bumpers and t-case mount. The top was also blasted
sealed and painted and installed all new glass, seals, shocks, and hardware. Once the body was painted is was
placed back on the frame for final assembly. I installed a brand new create 302 and every nut and bolt was
replaced. The engine has new valve covers, manifold, ignition, oil pan, carb, plug wires, fuel pump, water pump,
fan, radiator, radiator hoses, belts alternator, and power steering pump. I also had a custom intake done so that
there was no clearance issues with the new factory hood. The transmission shifter cane was customized and installed
to allow the np435 to clear with a very clean look. The interior was completely insulated and all new carpet was
installed. 4 speakers were installed as well as an amp that allows you to play your phone through the speakers with
no head unit. A new console was installed and custom switch panel with push button start was fabricated to be
locked into the console for parking and storage. All new front and rear seats were installed along with new trim
and seat brackets. Racing seat belts were installed for the front seats. The dash was custom made for the auto
meter gauges. All new column, steering wheel, intermediate steering shaft, pedals, and dash were installed. The
wiring was a new kit and was made with custom hidden fuse box. All wiring was done, terminated, and loomed. New led
tail lights. The all new windshield, seals, door seals, inner door mechanics, door panels, door glass, mirrors,
handles, hinges and latches were installed. A custom roll cage was built, powder coated and installed.
Almost every single nut or bolt was replaced with ford bronco specific hardware. A custom dual flow master exhaust
was done.
All new driveshafts, joints and hardware
Basically everything is new
I am not a company that built this as a cookie cutter for profit. This bronco was built as a 1 off custom build for
my personal collection.
Before delivery the bronco will be sent out for polishing, break in oil change, once over on all bolts to ensure
its perfect. There was a couple small things that need touched up from the final assembly. I have put roughly 60
miles on it sense it was completed. It is absolutely incredible to drive. Life has changed in the last two years
and I can no longer keep it. If the bronco doesn't sell for what the market dictates for a build like this then it
will wait to be sold at either Barrett Jackson or Mecum later this year. Thank you for looking and let me know if
you have any questions.
I am located in Northern California and buyer is responsible for pickup. I will help facilitate though.

2014 Ford Transit Connect Taxi hopes to fare thee well
Mon, 23 Sep 2013New York City may have selected its taxi of tomorrow, but there are still plenty of municipalities across the US with citizens that depend on yellow livery cars to get them across town in a jiffy. That's why Ford is going ahead with this, the new Transit Connect Taxi.
Based on the 2014 Transit Connect, the TC Taxi boasts a number of features designed to make the compact van appeal to discerning taxi drivers and their fares, with the most notable upgrade being a standardized prep package to convert the 2.5-liter four to run on liquefied petroleum or compressed natural gas. The clean-burning fuel options will allow operators to save on fuel costs and cut down on pollution without sacrificing performance.
A lower load floor and a new twist-beam rear suspension are meant to improve the riding experience for passengers, while the longer 2014 Transit Connect sports extra cargo space as well. In addition to the CNG/LPG conversion, the Transit Connect Taxi can also be easily modified for wheelchair access. Drivers, meanwhile, will have access to optional goodies like Sync with MyFord Touch and a rear-view camera.
70% of pickups could use aluminum by 2025
Wed, 11 Jun 2014In the next decade, the auto industry will see an explosion in its use of aluminum to cut weight and increase fuel economy, according to a study from market analysts Ducker Worldwide cited by The Detroit News. We are already seeing the lightweight metal show up extensively in luxury models from Europe, but with the impending launch of aluminum-intensive 2015 Ford F-150 (pictured above), North America is using it even more, as well. The report predicts 70 percent of US pickups to have aluminum bodies by 2025.
It won't just be pickups that see the benefit, though. The average amount of aluminum in US vehicles is forecasted by the study to grow from an average of 350 pounds in 2013 to about 550 pounds by 2025. The most common parts to use it will be hoods, doors and - to some extent - roofs, as well.
The massive increase in pickups' aluminum content hardly seems surprising. The F-150 is predicted to use so much that it might cause a short-term shortage, according to one earlier report. At the same time General Motors is heavily rumored to be negotiating with suppliers for the next generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. Ram is the last holdout of the Big Three, but the study predicts that not to last.
Ford profiles surprisingly affluent Focus ST buyers
Fri, 08 Nov 2013It comes as no surprise when Ford says that 32-percent of Focus ST buyers are under 35, but we weren't expecting this: the average annual salary of Focus ST buyers is $127,000. Twenty-two percent of non-ST Focus buyers are under 35, while their average annual salary is $67,000.
We like the Focus ST because it has 252 horsepower, is genuinely fun to drive and offers great value for performance-minded car enthusiasts; facts that are not lost on customers, it seems. Ford says that the Focus ST has the highest percentage of conquest sales for a non-hybrid model it sells, and that the top-four trade-ins are from Honda, Chevrolet, Mazda and Toyota. Demand for the hot Focus is strongest in Los Angeles, Detroit, Houston and Orlando.
"[The Focus ST is] having this kind of halo effect for other vehicles we'd hoped for when we invested in the ST brand," says John Felice, vice president of US marketing, sales and service, because it's helping to boost sales of other Ford vehicles.
