You are bidding on a very rare and very cool 4-door Ford Bronco built on the frame of a Ford F350 1-ton truck  ... This Bronco was the precursor to the Excursion, is in very nice condition inside and out, has always been serviced and is very well optioned (see description below for a list of all options and mods).  The odometer shows 43,245 on it, which from the records I believe is the current mileage on the 460 motor following a rebuild in 2002.  The F350 frame showed 125,900 for the mileage in 2003.  The body was from a 1989 Bronco and does not have a VIN associated with it.  This truck was built as an off-road vehicle so the previous owner didn't care about the interior or a perfect paint job.  He had his body man spray the truck matte black over the green and tan factory paint.  The interior is nice but not perfect.  The seats and dash are the best part, as I personally would replace the carpet and headliner.  The body is straight with no rust issues, and the engine runs very strong.  The upgrades were done correctly with high quality parts.  Everything electrical works as designed.  It drives very well, even with the lift and large tires.  The title history report shows two accidents, but the only thing carried over from the F350 donor vehicle is the frame and axles.  The Bronco donor body had no accident history and is still clear of dents, dings, etc. Photos show the condition the most accurately, so please request them.  It's a very cool, rare Bronco!


Additional Details:

(VIN: 2FTJW36G6KCA17910), matte black / tan cloth int., auto trans., 43,250 miles shown on odo., this is a very rare Ford

Bronco modified by Centurion Vehicles out of MI into a 1-ton, 4-door Bronco.  These were available new through Ford dealer

ships, and these were the precursors to the 2000 Excursion.  This Centurion features the following upgrades and Options:

windshield visor and roof rack, 7.5L 460 big block with side exit exhaust, MSD ignition, K&N air filter, C-6 auto trans with HD

torque converter and shift kit, balanced steel driveshaft, F350 1-ton frame, axles and suspension, 2H/4H/4L selectable 4x4,

GoodYear Wrangler MT mud tires, over $7,200.00 invested in the mods, not including the F350 or Bronco!  If you want some

thing rare and unique with the ability to haul 9 people and their luggage this is the truck for you.  You won't ever see another

one of these on the road or at you local 4x4 show.


About Centurion conversion:

From the late 1980s through its demise in 1996, the Bronco was also sold at Ford dealerships as a modified 4-door SUV (making

it similar to the Excursion or Suburban). These 4-door Broncos were converted by Centurion Vehicles of White Pigeon, Michigan.

The conversion involved combining a new club cab short bed F-Series truck with a Bronco body, tailgate and fiberglass top. The

end result?  A huge, versatile, extremely rugged SUV.  In addition to adding a third row of seats and more room, a Bronco Centurion

could be ordered using an F-350 as the donor pickup, allowing the Centurion to have such engines as the 7.3L PowerStroke turbo

diesel and the 7.5L 460ci gasoline V8.  This made the Centurion more appealing to people in need of a comfortable tow vehicle,

albeit a faster one.  Over time the few of these cars that still exist are rare and valuable, except for the certain percentage of Northern

cars that suffered from tailgate rust-out due to poor body paint preparation.  The Bronco Centurion could be ordered with options

such as a third-row seat that can be folded into a bed, second row bucket seats, a TV with a VCR, and a built-in radar detector.

Former Ford CEO Mulally won't run for president

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

Alan Mulally will not be following his successful term as president and CEO of Ford Motor Company with a run at an even bigger presidency. Rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would make a run at the White House sprouted after his apparent dodging of a reporter's questions about a potential candidacy during a forum in Indianapolis.
"I really think it's important that we all pull together. We really need to pull together around a compelling vision for our country and a comprehensive strategy to do it and work together. We really need to do it," Mulally said at the conference, according to The Detroit News.
He's since clarified by saying, "[I'm] honored at the suggestion, but that is not a role I am considering."

Long winter means most automakers won't curb summer shutdown

Sun, 18 May 2014

A lot more happened during this latest brutal winter than days of snow and Netflix binges. Automotive sales took a battering. After all, going out car shopping when it's eleventy-billion degrees below zero isn't a good time.
Because of this Old Man Winter-induced sales slump, inventories are abnormally high as we head into the summer car buying season. That's led some analysts to predict that automakers will be more inclined to idle factories this summer, in a bid to trim some of the built-up inventory. Traditionally, American manufacturers offer up a two-week break in the middle of summer, although the burgeoning sales of the past few years have seen this practice become less popular.
"We're likely not going to see an acceleration this year," Jeff Schuster, a senior vice president at LMC Automotive, told The Detroit News. "We'll see production increases in 'pockets' but I don't know if it will be as widespread as in recent years."

Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?

Sun, Jul 9 2023

The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric.  Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands.  If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla.  Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor.  Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have:  Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
