El Dorado, Arkansas, United States

Up for auction is a 1977 Ford Bronco that is in excellent condition.  This bronco has all the options that Ford offered plus Air Conditioning!! It has a strong running 302 that has been rebuilt in the past. Has a mild cam in it. The motor has less than 40,000 miles on it since the rebuild.  It just received a new oil pan gasket and oil change with filter.  It cranks up and runs great! It has a nice set of headers that dump into glass packs. This bronco sounds great!! It has aluminum valve covers that have the bronco script on them.  It has an aluminum radiator. Has an aluminum intake manifold topped with an Edelbrock 4-Barrel Carb.  It has a rebuilt C-4 automatic transmission that just received a new cork pan gasket, filter, and trans. fluid change.  The transmission is strong and it shifts good.  Original Dana 20 transfer case is in great shape.  J pattern shifter is tight and works well.  The original locking hubs work fine and overall the 4-wheel drive is in great condition.  This bronco has the original 4-turn power steering setup that works great and I just replaced the pressure hose due to a leak.  It has a Dana 44 front end with power disc brakes that also work excellent.  This bronco handles better than any other bronco I have ever dealt with.  It has a very nice ride and stops nice and straight and as quick as you could ask for.  Underneath has been covered (body and frame) with undercoating that appears to have been done at the dealership before it was originally sold.  That is why it looks like there is a thick coat of dirt on everything but it definitely helped keep the rust away for the most part.  This bronco has the Vintage Air AC system in it.  It works wonderfully! It will cool the entire cab on a hot day with no problem.  All gauges work.  This bronco only has a main gas tank.  That is the way it came from the factory but an aux tank could be added.  The body on this bronco is very solid and nice and straight.  I don't believe that there is a perfect bronco out there but this one is as close as I've seen.  It just received a new coat of paint (Original Ford Color-Medium Emerald) and it is beautiful!!  At the same time it was repainted, I also added the color matched spray-in bed liner to the floors.  The top is lined with Dynamat as well as the inside of the doors and behind the rear quarter panels.  It has an after market headliner in the top that is very nice.  The seats have been recovered and are in great shape.  The dash pad is an original Ford dash pad and it is perfect.  It has a Tuffy lockable console.  It has a Pioneer CD deck with aux input as well as usb input.  Has two Pioneer 6x9's and  a 10" JL Audio Subwoofer both powered by Kicker amps.  The windshield is in excellent shape with no defects.  The rest of the glass is original and there are a few imperfections and a scratch (driver's side vent window) but none of them affect the driver's ability to operate the vehicle safely.  Door glasses have new weather stripping.  The lift gate has gas strong arms that lift it with ease.  Tailgate has new stainless handle and bucket.  The bronco has all new gaskets on the doors and top.  All new lenses and headlights.  Nearly new 32" BFG All-terrains on Ultra wheels (both in very good shape with many, many miles left).  New chrome outside door handles with the original ford guts in them work like they should.  It has brand new triple plated show chrome bumpers that look amazing!!  I tried to list everything on this bronco but I'm sure I have left something out.  Please ask any and all questions before placing a bid.  I will do my best to answer ASAP.  I can send you any picture of this bronco that you would like to see, just let me know.  Any and all shipping arrangements and costs are the responsibility of the buyer.  I will be happy to help load this bronco.  THIS BRONCO TURNS HEADS EVERYWHERE IT GOES!!! Just this afternoon (4-19-14) while I was taking pictures, I had a guy stop completely in the road and just stare! I don't think the new owner will be disappointed in this bronco!!! Thanks so much for looking and good luck!!!!

MotorWeek relives '80s coupes with Dodge Daytona, Ford Escort EXP

Thu, Aug 6 2015

Get ready for a wave of nostalgia and the rapid realization of the huge progress in performance cars over the last 30 years. For its latest Retro Review, MotorWeek takes a look back at two, front-wheel drive coupes from the '80s that seem to have entirely vanished from the roads today. Both the 1986 Dodge Daytona CS and the 1986.5 Ford Escort EXP were considered affordable, sporty options in their day, but the passage of time hasn't been kind to either of their specs. The Daytona certainly looks the part of a performance machine with a body that's reminiscent of other '80s coupes, like the third-gen Chevrolet Camaro. However with 146 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque from a 2.2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, acceleration wasn't exactly a strong suit. MotorWeek complained about copious torque steer, as well. The optional CS suspension upgrade package on this Daytona was apparently a nod to Carroll Shelby who was working with Dodge at the time. If anything, the Escort EXP withstands the test of time even worse. As a two-seat coupe, you might have expected Ford's engineers to really turn up the performance to fit the sporty image that the exterior conveyed. That didn't really happen, and depending on which model buyers ordered, they got either 86 horsepower with a 1.9-liter engine or the "high-output" version of that mill with 108 hp.

Google's new Android Autos OS unveiled, will be in cars this year [w/video]

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

Connected cars are coming en-masse. We know this much. How, though, remains something of an open question, especially as two of the world's largest tech companies are preparing to battle for control of your car's dashboard. On the one hand, we have Apple and its CarPlay system. And now, we know what Google has been working on with Auto Link.
Its new name is Android Auto, and yes, it's based off the Android architecture that is the primary challenger to Apple's iOS mobile operating system. Announced at Google's I/O conference today, Android Auto functions similarly to CarPlay - owners will need to plug their smartphones into their cars to access the full breadth of capability.
In Android Auto's case, that means a wealth of voice controls to limit distracted driving. Google's marquee apps will be available when the interface arrives in production models later this year, including Google Play Music, Google Maps and voice-activated texting and text playback. Meanwhile, developers will be able to begin designing custom apps for the new system via an upcoming software development kit.

Ford, Samsung shack up to bring regen braking to non-hybrid models [w/video]

Mon, 09 Jun 2014

Ford must be desperate to get itself ready for the beach this summer because it is really trying to get into shape. Shortly after unveiling the Lightweight Concept that cut the weight of a Fusion down to that of a Fiesta, it's now the rest of the line's turn for improvement. The company is wrapping up a 10-year research project aimed at developing next-gen automotive batteries to improve efficiency.
Ford claims that 70 percent of its lineup will have stop/start tech by 2017. The key to this massive proliferation is its new dual-battery system that combines a lithium-ion battery with a lead-acid one and regenerative braking. The setup works by harvesting braking energy and converting it to electricity. When the vehicle stops, the engine shuts off, but the Li-ion battery has enough juice to keep the accessories running. The engine starts up again as drivers take their foot off the brake. The layout would mean less wasted gas while idling. It's already available on Ford hybrids and is somewhat similar to the i-Eloop capacitor-based system from Mazda.
The bigger challenge is tuning the regenerative braking right. While hybrid drivers may be a little more adventurous, when it comes to getting a hang of regen braking, conventional buyers might not be so open-minded. The systems have a tendency to be a little grabby at first and then taper off at very low speeds. Ford needs to make sure it's just right to avoid turning off buyers.
