This was a Gentlemen's retirement project for me, and now that it's completed goes to a new Home. This Bronco has it all, and then some. I've spared no expense in getting it the way I wanted it, putting over $8,000.00 in to the project on top of a $6500.00 purchase price. I always over spend on my Vehicles but that's the fun of it. I owned a Eddie Bauer Bronco in 1996 and wanted to enjoy one again, so purchased this one. Redone from front to back.Mostly upgraded parts at that. New Black factory paint, over previous factory Black paint. Paint was showing signs of fading. I give the paint job a 8.5 out of a possible 10. It does have some minor small scratches but are hard to see. Unlike most Bronco's, this one has no rust issues that I could find. All doors and window seals have been replaced with new rubber. I replaced the drivers side wing window assembly and glass because it didn't seal correctly. The Tail gate Window was replaced, along with the Window / Tail gate seal's as well. It wouldn't defrost so out it went and the new one installed. A new and bright LED brake and white light was installed as well. New custom installed high intensity lights in the bumper, along with all new Lens both front and rear. The 4000K white headlights look super bright, and with the additional two bumper lights really light up the road. All double and triple fused I might add. Grill guard just installed, along with a new Windshield and rubber seal. Truck wears a custom Bra on the hood, which I take off when washing the Bronco.

All fluids from front to back have been changed, and the Transmission was just serviced. Engine and transmission run strong and smooth and the engine use's no Oil. I have been able to get 16.0 MPG on the Freeway. 4 wheel and 4 wheel low work perfectly and the dash light light's up to indicate so. All new Belt's, new idler arms, new Alternator, new thermostat, water pump, new Anti-freeze, along with a new Air conditioning compressor.

, A new Costco 1000 CCA Battery was just installed to provide maximum power for you. Over sized sway bars both front and rear for super flat cornering. Four new struts up front, with 2 new shocks in the rear. ( all Gabriel ) Front end alignment was done when the Strut's were replaced. This Truck drives as straight as an Arrow, when you take your hand's off the Wheel. I put a custom Class III trailer hitch on the truck for towing. This rig could pull a Boat or Trailer with no problem at all! Seven point plug in and wired. No check engine lights are on!

New Rotors and Pad's at all four corners with rebuilt Calipers. Four new B F G 265 / 70/ R 15 M & S Tires, and near perfect factory rims with no road rash. Wheel locks for all four wheels and the spare, which is close to new as well. All rims received new center caps, A new spare tire cover to round out the outside appearance of the truck was put on. New Catalytic converters ( 2 ) and new 02 sensors just installed as well, along with a new Flowmaster muffler with a polished aluminum tail pipe. It has a soft but low throaty rumble to it. Not " Kid loud" though! Locking gas cap for the 32 gallon gas tank. . Engine doesn't use or leak Oil, and the 351 motor is super strong with all new plugs, and plug wires as well. Fuel injection service has been done. Air filter was changed over to a K & N system for better breathing. Truck passed Washington state's tough DEQ emissions test with flying colors. Many suspension bushings replaced as well!

The interior is like new, meaning the seat's ( lumbar works ) headliner, door panels, and the carpet are all in great shape. Anything that looked worn from age I replaced. All electrical works as it should and the Air blows Ice cold. The courtesy lights in the overhead console work, as does the Compass. I took out the old cassette radio and installed a new high end Pioneer AM/FM / CD / IPOD / Bluetooth Stereo, I don't have the old radio and it didn't work anyway. Upgraded top end speakers, along with a new 200 Watt Amplifier for incredible sound. While at the Stereo shop, I had a $650.00 Avital Alarm system installed with a kill-switch. Back side windows had been tinted for privacy, and the back seat look's like no one has ever sat in it. The stereo is set up for a phone with a mic, and along with the Ipod Classic sit's in a factory cut out in the lower dash. I just put on the new chrome wheel lip's yesterday so no dings yet. I have two front fender Bronco plaques ( Eddie Bauer ) but haven't put them on. Present one's are good. but these look newer. I replaced most badges with new one's, and added a few new one's as well, ie; Eddie Bauer on the Tail Gate, 5.8 Litre on Tailgate ( lower left ) 4 X 4 on front lower drivers side, and a 5.8 on the front passenger side..

For the BIN buyer, I will throw in a top end Magellan GPS ( $250.00 ) and a new better then factory quality Eddie Bauer Carpet kit ( $650.00 ). Kit covers the front seat area, back seat area, and the storage carpet area including the wheel bumps. As I said, the carpet doesn't need replacing at all, but I thought down the road it might so bought the carpet kit .In addition I will fill the trucks gas tank with Gas for you. Truck comes with all Book's, Brochures and receipts, You get a repair manual for the truck, along with other part's manuals as well. I even have the original sales brochure for you. I have a clear title to the truck. I've done so much to the Bronco, I can't even remember everything. This Bronco is a Classic and will only go up in value, so buy it and enjoy it as it does! I'm located in the Portland Oregon metro area about 15 minutes from the Portland Airport, if you want to fly in and drive the Bronco home. I welcome a PPI on the Bronco if you have any doubt's about the quality of the Truck. I have no idea what the minor accident was but was classified as a minor issue. I also have no idea other then the amount of owners why it's number is so low. My research tell's me that two it passed through two dealers and 3 owners. That's to be expected with 100K on the Clock. The value of the Bronco to you is what shape it's in now, and that's in pretty close to new condition. I welcome and encourage you to have a P P I done so that you can see that the Bronco is everything I've described here. I have 3 local garages for you to chose from. All are honest and all are Ace Mechanic's!

This Bronco need's nothing but someone to enjoy it. Be it on road or off road!, You won't find another Bronco in the shape this one is in. It may have 100K on the Clock, but look, drives, and feel's like a brand new one! Any question call Ed @ 360 901-1545

Ford bringing 10 custom Transit Connects to SEMA

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

With 57 vehicles planned for its SEMA display, it comes as little surprise that Ford has plenty of teasers for its show cars. After showing us what it has in store for the Mustang, Fiesta and Focus ST, now we're getting a look at some of the custom creations based on the redesigned 2014 Transit Connect van.
These nine Transit Connects are decked out to various degrees of customization, but our favorite might be the chopped and lowered Transit Connect from Mob Steel (shown above), which has a similar slammed stance that we see on some custom VW Buses. On the opposite extreme, LGE & CTS Motorsports has jacked up a Transit Connect to make a Cross Country cruiser that we wouldn't mind taking on a road trip.
There are seven other teasers from various companies, and you can check them all out in the gallery above or in the press release below. Ford is also promising a tenth Transit Connect for SEMA, so stay tuned for that as well.

NHTSA upgrades Ford floor mat unintended acceleration probe

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

According to a Bloomberg report, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has upgraded an investigation into complaints of unintended acceleration lodged against Ford vehicles. The investigation began in June of 2010 when just three complaints had been received and it only concerned the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan, but this was at a time when the phrase "unintended acceleration" made grown men go pale. With 49 additional complaints received since then, the investigation has been reclassified as an engineering analysis - the last phase before a recall - and it has been expanded to include the Lincoln MKZ, making for a total of "around 480,000" units affected between the three sedans from the 2008 to 2010 model years.
The ostensible cause is that floor mats are trapping the accelerator pedal, but according to a Ford statement at the time, the entrapment is due to owners placing the optional all-weather floor mats, or aftermarket floor mats, on top of the car's standard floor mats. NHTSA has backed up that assessment, pinning the blame on "unsecured or double stacked floor mats."
On the face of it, it would appear that NHTSA has upgraded the status not because of Ford's error, but owner error, and Ford has stated publicly that it is "disappointed" in NHTSA's move. On top of NHTSA still being skittish after that other unintended acceleration debacle, it could be seen to be taking its time investigating all of the variables: it's reported that Ford changed its accelerator pedal design in 2010, a "heel blocker" in the floorpan has been considered a potential culprit in how the floor mats could be trapping the pedal, some drivers have said the floor mats weren't anywhere near the pedal, and according to a report in the LA Times, in "a letter sent by Ford to NHTSA in August 2010, the automaker said it found three injuries and one fatality that 'may have resulted from the alleged defect.'"

Mustang retakes monthly pony car sales crown from Camaro

Wed, Dec 3 2014

Going back to their origins in the Swinging '60s, the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro have been fierce rivals for fans' hearts and dollars. Historically, the Ford often led in volume, but Chevy took the muscle car top spot in 2009 upon the Camaro's rebirth. However, with the launch of the latest Blue Oval pony car, the tide is turning back in Ford's favor. November was the first full month of sales for the new 2015 Mustang, and according to TheDetroitBureau.com, the model did spectacularly well. The Blue Oval shifted 8,728 of them, up 62 percent from same month last year, with the automaker proclaiming it the model's best November sales since 2006. Conversely, 4,385 units of the Camaro were delivered, down 13.5 percent year-over-year, meaning its sales were roughly half that of the new-generation Mustang. Ford is understandably happy with the results, and product development director Raj Nair even hinted to TDB that another version of the Mustang might be unveiled at January's North American International Auto Show. Rumor has it that the model will be the even more potent Shelby Mustang GT350R. Despite the Mustang's November success, the Camaro outsells it year to day. So far in 2014, Ford has sold 73,124 Mustangs versus 79,669 examples of the Camaro. With December offering the last chance for an overtake, the Bowtie may yet remain king for this year's sales crown. A new Camaro is peeking over the horizon, as well. It's reportedly moving to the Alpha platform used by the Cadillac ATS, and production could start in late 2015. Prototypes are already testing at the Nurburgring, and camouflaged examples have been spotted weirdly being compared to its '80s forefather.
