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.

Ford issues four recalls covering 163k vehicles

Tue, 19 Aug 2014

Recalls! 2014 will be forever remembered as the year that automakers went recall crazy, with millions and millions of vehicles adding up to crush previous recall records well before the end of the year. Adding to that tally is Ford, which announced a call-back for 163,000 vehicles.
Leading that charge are the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder engines of the Ford Focus ST and Ford Escape. 160,000 of the 2013 and 2014 models have bad wiring harnesses that can disrupt the signals traveling to the powertrain control module. That, in turn, could lead to a check engine light, reduced power and stalling. Notably, Ford hasn't recalled any other vehicles that feature the 2.0 EcoBoost, such as the Fusion, Taurus or Explorer.
While the Focus ST and Escape constitute the vast majority of recalled vehicles, they aren't the only problem children in the Ford family. 1,300 Transit passenger vans from model year 2015 were recalled due to brake fluid leaks, while another 600 Transit cargo variants were recalled after Ford discovered the windowless sliding doors could come open in the event of a side-impact crash. Dealers will replace the sealing washers on the passenger variants and add a reinforcement plate on the cargo models, The Detroit News reports.

Watch NASCAR racer Brad Keselowski do a burnout... in a hotel conference room

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

A vast majority of hotels frown upon smoking inside the building these days, but Brad Keselowski doesn't follow the rules. During his introduction at the 2013 MiilerCoors Distribution Convention, the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup champion smoked the tires of his Miller-sponsored Ford Fusion stock car, adding a pair of thick, black stripes to the carpeting of the Marriott World Center's conference room.
This definitely isn't a high-quality video, but it's the perfect vantage point to watch Keselowski lay down some rubber and receive a well-deserved standing ovation after pulling up in front of the crowd. Check out the short-but-sweet video posted below.

Ford brings FPV Falcon production in house [w/video]

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

For the first time since 1976, Ford of Australia is bringing the assembly of its stonking Ford Performance Vehicle line back in-house to the company's Broadmeadows and Geelong facilities. That's a point of pride for FPV, which builds high-performance versions of the Australian Falcon model like the F6, GS and the heroic GT seen here.
In the video below, we hear FPV employees talking in hushed tones about the important legacy that cars like the GT have for Australian gearheads of all stripes, and how proud they are to say that hand-built machines like this GT R-Spec with its Boss 355 engine are now rolling out of their home base. For our part, we're just dying to drive this version of the Coyote V8; the engine is rocking a "Miami" supercharger from Harrop and makes some 450 horsepower.
Continue on below for the video, or you can check out some images of the new FPV at the facility, as well as a gallery of the GT R-Spec car.
