 1977 Ford Bronco, 302 engine, C4 Automatic, Dana 20 Transfer Case, Ford 9 Inch Trac-lock, Dana 44 Front, Power Steering, Power Brakes with Front Disc Brakes. I do not know the actual mileage, 102000 was a guess.

The good on this truck, The engine was rebuilt (bored .040 oversize, crankshaft ground .030, new camshaft and cam bearings, heads were rebuilt, new lifters,) new Holley 2300 2 barrel, new Aluminum Raditor, New water pump, ect. Rear differential was rebuilt with new ring and pinion, bearings, and clutches. Transfer case has new seals. Brakes were replaced  new Calipers, Pads, Shoes, Lines. New front Springs, and Poly Bushings. New Shocks. Tires have a lot of tread but are older(There are weather cracks between the treads). New seat belts. I have not had to work on the Transmission or front differential, The both seem fine. The engine is loud, it has new down pipes from the manifolds and old exhaust after that. I say the parts are new but I have been working on the truck over a period of several years it has stayed in the shop and I have driven it aprox. 1000 miles. I have only used 100% gas. I have been driving it to work about once a week and it drives down the highway fine, Four wheel drive works fine. The oil pressure is very good from startup to when the engine is warm.

 The bad on this truck is rust in the tailgate, windshield, frame, floors, and rockers. The floors were patched when I bought the Bronco and they seem solid but I have not really dug into them, and I riveted new rockers over the rusted out rockers. The top has been removed and put back on and the rubber seals do not seal out water, it drips into the floor boards when it rains. The welds on the top braces on the cab are broken and the cap rattles and pops when you go down the highway.  The frame had a piece notched out for headers on the passenger side, It was repaired with angle and plate when the engine was being rebuilt ( I posted several photos of the repair). The doors rattle and the passenger door will not unlock with the push knob, you have to reach into the door panel to unlock it. The gas gauge does not work. The factory Gauges do not work, I added some after market temp and oil pressure gauges and the work fine. The front tank has a leak at the fill hose, I don't know if it is the hose or tank neck. Some of the dash lights do not work. The fenders and grill are different colors inside so the have been replaced at sometime.

I do not want to trade or take payments. You will have to pick it up in Claremore, Oklahoma. Tag is current, Title is clear. I will need a 500 dollar paypal deposit within 24 hours and the rest in CASH when you pickup the truck. I would feel comfortable driving the truck a couple of hundred miles home but it's your truck once you leave( I will not come get you) You might want to trailer it home.

Ford and Chrysler reducing summer plant shutdowns

Wed, 22 May 2013

Most domestic automaker assembly plants traditionally take a couple of weeks off during the summer. The shutdowns give each plant time for much needed repairs and maintenance, and in some cases, help better align production with demand. Not this year, though, as demand for many models is outstripping what Ford, Chrysler and General Motors plants can produce.
Ford has announced that it will shorten its annual summer shutdown for most North American plants from two weeks to one. The shorter shutdown will increase the carmaker's annual North American production by 40,000 units on top of the 200,000 extra units that it was already planning to produce this year versus last. Automotive News reports that Ford produced 2.8 million vehicles on this continent in 2012, and that output this year has already increased 13 percent through April.
Chrysler, meanwhile, is also operating at full tilt and plans to run some plants through the summer with no shutdown at all. Those not getting a break include Jefferson North where the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango are assembled, Toledo North that will assemble the new Cherokee, and Conner Avenue, home of SRT Viper production. Other assembly plants will be down for a single week, while all of Chrysler's engine and transmission plants except one in Indiana will continue operating with no shutdown this summer.

Chris Harris pits Fiesta ST against Mercedes G63 AMG in 0-60 battle... sort of

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

Vehicle performance tests are serious business, with reputations made or broken by things like braking distance, top speed, and lateral g-forces. King of the metrics, though, is the 0-60 run, which for unknown reasons has become the benchmark for what truly makes a car a performance machine.
Now, Chris Harris from Drive has turned the whole idea behind the sprint to 60 on its ear. Taking a new Ford Fiesta ST, Harris asks a simple question: would the ST be quicker to 60 on its own, or on a trailer being towed by a Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG?
It's a fair question, really. The Fiesta Harris tested hit 60 in 7.2 seconds on a slightly uphill section of runway. It should be noted that Harris quotes his ST at 182 horsepower, which is about 15 ponies less than what we're getting in the US, so these numbers might not hold up all that well against an American model. The G63 AMG, meanwhile, is a 536-horsepower monster, powered by a twin-turbo V8 that, able to propel the big SUV to 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds without towing a Fiesta.

Weekly Recap: Volkswagen moves forward under Muller

Sat, Sep 26 2015

Most stunning was the speed of it all. On the morning of September 18, Volkswagen AG stood atop the automotive world. It was profitable and sold more cars than Toyota and General Motors, its two main rivals for global supremacy. By nightfall, the company would be embroiled in scandal. Revelations the German auto giant cheated on diesel emissions testing in the United States reverberated from Washington to Wolfsburg, Germany. What started out as a problem with 482,000 VWs and Audis in the US exploded into an international scandal. Millions of vehicles have the rigged software, meaning VW broke environmental rules as its cars spewed pollutants all over the world. The fallout began immediately. Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn – one of the most respected and capable executives in the business – apologized on Sunday and Tuesday. On Wednesday he resigned. As the week progressed, the company's stock took a beating and credit agencies threatened to drop their ratings. VW dealers and owners said they felt betrayed. The automaker hired a law firm that defended BP after the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The EPA is already extending its testing procedures to look for "defeat devices" like the ones used by Volkswagen. On Friday the company announced a major restructuring. Matthias Muller, Porsche's chief for the last five years, took over as CEO of Volkswagen and is charged with picking up the pieces of a shattered company facing regulatory action and lawsuits. With GM, Toyota, and Takata scandals still fresh, Volkswagen will likely experience unprecedented levels of scrutiny. Additionally, VW's markets in the United States, Canada, and Mexico will be combined into a North American region under the leadership of former Skoda boss Winfried Vahland, though US chief executive Michael Horn will stay on. The company is also realigning its brands by specialty and streamlining its board. Firings, government action, restructurings, and international outrage – things that usually build up over months or years – all occurred in about a week. With dizzying speed, Volkswagen's future has changed dramatically. It all happened, it's still happening, so fast.
