So...this 1978 Ford Bronco is that one owner 72,000 mile Bronco you could only hope to find. It was ordered back East by the original owner and brought out to Portland, OR in 1982 and has lived her since in an inside storage inviroment. The original owners wife donated it when her husband became ill. I was fortunate enough to be able to obtain it. I have been hunting for Bronco's as a hobby for years. I travel for work and for me, it is all about the hunt to find these Bronco's in great condition because most of them have been around the mountain a time or two. I have talked to the original owners wife and can put you in touch with her.
The Interior in this Bronco is a 9 out of 10, only because one can always find something wrong with anything. Factory black and silver Vinyl seats. Factory roll bar and air conditioning. The only the thing the interior does not have is tilt wheel and cruise control. All gauges and instruments work as new. Factory AM//FM Stereo. When you take this out of park to drive it feels as though the linkage isn't even connected because of the newness of the Bronco. When you unlock the doors with a key you can feel the mechanism is still greased from factory, nice and smooth. It is simply impresseve. Looking under the dash all moldings and carpet are as new. Closing the doors is a simple click and they latch. The original owner has added those "old man" add ons. Air pump with air horn under the hood (not working). Fog light for backing up and indicating lights so if your lights are on you are aware of it. Factory push bar with factory fog lights. Double Shocks, Dual exhaust, headers and tow hitch. This is a trailer special from the Factory, therefor it has an oil bath air cleaner and an added oil transmission cooler. The Bronco sat for 3 years. I installed a new fuel pump and have I have been smiling every since because driving this Bronco reflects is mileage and condition. The paint is original and the patina on the paint is somewhat confusing because above the molding it is faded but will easily rub out and shine. I can't bring myself to doing that because of the originality of the Bronco. The hood is faded in spots to the underprimer. All chrome molding, grill, headlight rings and chrome bumpers are outstanding. A rare thing in itself. The chrome window gimp molding is in unbelievable condition. There are brand new 33.1250.15 BFG All Terrain's that I have put on the Bronco. Unfortunately, the 10 X 15 Aluminum slots are new wheels from 1978 that I can not replace, therefor I am keeping them. In place I have 10 X 15 chrome spokes that are in outstanding condition. (can submit photos if needed) This is that rare one owner Bronco with original miles. Believe me there will be no disappointments with this Bronco. If you have any questions please contact me. ********Check my my feedback and you will see the prior Bronco's I have sold have had 100% feedback************ |

Ford barely edges surging Chrysler for Canadian sales crown in best year ever
Thu, Jan 8 2015The auto industry in the US showed strong results through much of 2014 with sales regularly growing year-over-year for many brands. That same trend carried over in the Great White North, as well. Canada posted its best numbers ever with 1.85 million units sold, up about 100,000 vehicles over 2013. The country nearly had a new market leader, too. The big winner among our neighbors to the north in 2014 was Ford with 291,951 vehicles sold, up 3 percent from 2013, according to Reuters. That success also handed the company the sales crown for the fifth consecutive year. In large part, the strong result came from the company's popular trucks, which represented about 80 percent of overall sales. "Ford moved into the number one position in September and didn't look back," said a note to clients by DesRosiers Automotive Consultants quoted by Reuters. However, the Blue Oval didn't exactly take an overwhelming lead for the year. The company nearly had to hand over the sales trophy to FCA after the company rallied in the latter part of the year. The Italian-American conglomerate had its best results ever to nip at the Ford's heels and move 290,004 units for 2014, a 12-percent improvement from last year. Jeep especially helped the bottom line with over 50-percent growth, according to Reuters. Only two other brands were able to break the 200,000-vehicle barrier in Canada for 2014. General Motors came in third place overall with 249,800 sales, up 6.3 percent. The combined Toyota and Lexus also barely jumped the hurdle with 200,851 units moved, a 2.8 percent improvement.
IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013
Wed, 02 Jan 2013The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
