I am letting go of  my 1996 Ford Bronco Eddie Bauer with Fisher 7.5' plow since I no longer need to worry about snow removal and I am a bit short on space in the yard. The truck has 129,000 miles is 4x4 and has the 5.8L V8 and is the Eddie Bauer package. The truck runs strong, shifts solid, starts and goes all the time. It never broke down in a snow storm and plowed the recent blizzard without breaking a sweat. I originally bought the truck to replace a severely aged 1980 F-150 and given that it was in good condition it also has every heavy duty option Ford had available and most luxury options too. It has the tow package with the heavy duty radiator, tranny cooler, 3.73 limited slip rear end, heavy duty front end with quad shocks, and the E40D tranny the same one behind the Powerstoke diesel. Inside it has leather seats, power windows, cruise, AC that blows ice cold, overhead console with temp gage, and rear swing out spare tire bracket. The truck is solid, the floors and chassis are solid, no rot just a little surface rust in places. The only rust is on the exterior fender as can be seen in the pictures in all the typical Bronco locations. This can be fixed easily at this point and you could have a rust free truck no problem. I have done a lot of work to the truck over the past couple of years to keep it in top running shape. I have replaced just about every front end component including ball, joints, tie rods, bushings, shocks, front axle joints, brakes and calipers. The transfer case has been rebuilt, new manual hubs for reliability, new oil pan, front and rear drive shaft universal joints, new rear diff cover, new 850CCA battery, thermostat, and rear brake lines. I also did a tune up last year with new plugs, wires and rotor, filters the whole deal. The items that don't work on the truck is the rear defroster sine I had to replace the rear window glass, the key switch to raise and lower the rear window from the out side and I lost the keyless entry fob when the alarm when haywire and I removed it. The plow is a fisher conventional mount setup with all the engine driven hydraulics. It works great no problems with it and although they can be a bit more cumbersome to put on and off they are reliable and much less prone freeze ups and electrical gremlins. All the hoses on the plow and blade are only two years old and the rams all work fine. I have an extra pump, lift cylinder and control valve manifold available that can possibly go with the truck. The plow blade has a custom back drag blade that works great for tight areas and the plow is solid with no rot. I have lost of picture of the truck and plow, more than can be posted here so if you contact me I can send photos of the truck and in specific areas you request. They go together I am not separating, too much work. If you interested please call me and if you are local come and look the truck over before bidding. I can deliver up to 150 miles if necessary if you are willing to pay for fuel or hook the plow and drive it home.

Junkyard Gem: 1993 Mercury Topaz GS Sedan

Sat, Aug 13 2022

As long as the Mercury brand existed — a period spanning the 1939 through 2011 model years — nearly every Mercury sold in the United States was more or less a redecorated Ford model. The Torino had its Montego sibling, the Crown Victoria had the Grand Marquis, the Cougar was based on everything from the Mustang to the Mondeo, and so on. Naturally, when the folks in Dearborn developed the Ford Tempo compact, a Mercury version had to be created. This was the Topaz, with the official launch of both cars taking place on the deck of the aircraft carrier often referred to as the USS Decrepit. You can't make this stuff up! The Tempo/Topaz, also known as the Tempaz, has largely faded from our collective automotive memory by now, since it broke no significant new engineering or styling ground (this story would be much different if Ford had only put the amazing straight-eight "T-Drive" Tempaz powertrain into production) and didn't have any endearing features other than being a cheap domestic competitor to the Toyota Corolla and Nissan Sentra. Still, close to 3 million Tempazes left North American Ford and Lincoln-Mercury showrooms during the 1984-1994 period. As you'd expect, most of these disposable cars disappeared from both the street and the car graveyard long ago. It takes a very special Tempaz for me to break out my camera while I'm patrolling my local wrecking yards; generally, this means an ultra-rare all-wheel-drive version or at least a very early model in super-clean condition. Today's Junkyard Gem is neither, but I took one look at this spectacular Bordello Red crypto-velour-and-slippery-plastic interior and recognized that this was no ordinary junkyard Mercury. It appears that Mercury had dropped the idea of clever names for base-grade seat fabrics by the time of the Topaz, referring to this stuff as just "cloth" in all the brochures I could find. That's too bad, because Mercurys had cool names for upholstery (e.g., Chromatex) in the old days. The interior is in very good condition but the steering wheel shows substantial wear, so I think this is a high-mile Topaz that got meticulous care from its owner or owners. Ford used five-digit odometers on these cars until the end of production, however, so we'll never know if this reading indicates 65,404 miles or 365,404 miles. The body is very straight, but there's some nasty corrosion behind the right front wheelwell.

Spy shooter claims proof of upcoming aluminum Ford F-Series Super Duty

Thu, 26 Jun 2014

Ford has already confirmed that the 2015 F-150 (pictured above) was just the beginning for its more extensive use of aluminum. CEO Alan Mulally said it himself during the 2014 Detroit Auto Show. We've even already seen the future Raptor testing with an aluminum body. But a recent discovery from an intrepid spy photographer might indicate that the lightweight metal is coming to the Blue Oval's Super Duty pickups in their upcoming generation, as well.
According to Automotive News, a spy shooter in Colorado spotted a prototype for the next-gen F-350 testing. He happened to have a magnet on hand and got close enough to check the truck out. When he held it up to the metal in the bed, it didn't stick, which signaled to him a switch from steel to aluminum.
Obviously, this claim raises some questions. Given that it was a test vehicle, one possibility is that the Blue Oval is just evaluating the feasibility of switching to aluminum for the Super Duty trucks, not necessarily committed to it yet. Ford has been testing it quite exhaustively, after all. In fact, much of the rest of the truck in question was covered in camouflage, so it's possible that the magnet failed to work along the rest of the body not because it was aluminum, but because it wasn't powerful enough to get through the disguising material. Thus, the lightweight metal's use could be far less substantial than on the new F-150. Still, it was a clever idea for the cameraman to check things out and might have given us the first hint about brand's next heavy-duty models.
