1966 Ford Bronco Half-cab: Beautifully Restored on 2040-cars
Carlsbad, California, United States
|
FIRST YEAR of the V8 Bronco. Removable half-cab makes it even more rare. Completely uncut, unaltered original '66 Bronco repainted with original Caribbean Turquoise color in EXCELLENT CONDITION. Restored to its original condition, the only exception being a rebuilt bored-out 302 c.i. V8 block plus engine upgrades vs. the original 289 c.i. V8 completed about 500 miles ago.
Clean title, no wrecks, no rust, 4 WD. Original three speed on the floor. New suspension, new brakes, new shocks, new tires (including spare). The engine has an Edelbrock intake manifold with a four-barrel carburetor, new exhaust headers, and new exhaust system and mufflers. The valve covers are old-school Mickey Thompson. New power steering, coil, and fuel pump as well. Full restoration completed by the masters at Beach City Broncos with excellent paint. Rear rumble seat with all three seats reupholstered, heavy duty roll bar repainted black, bikini top, and trickle charger. This is a great value for the first year early Bronco in excellent condition. Exterior in near perfect condition with absolutely no dings, dents, or scratches. Half-cab top also repainted white without a scratch. A true classic collector's vehicle that will continue to increase in value. Full restoration began in 2009 and was just completed with the following work performed: -Original turquoise exterior color (code 12876) -Suspension, 6 Ranchero shocks, brakes, tires -Rebuilt bored-out 302 Ford V8 engine, hoses, belts, etc. -4 barrel carburator, headers, exhaust system -Power steering -Ignition coil -Electric fuel pump -Fuel sending unit/gas tank sensor on main tank -Voltage regulator -Fuel gauge -Window gaskets, including vent window and all window seals -Dash gauge cluster -Rubber hood bumpers -Signal switch -Gaskets for around doors, above windshield, below top in rear, rear glass gasket -Window regulators -Ignition switch -Exhaust pipe, muffler, tail pipe -Clutch -Both gas tanks -Water pump -Reupholstered fabric insert front and rear seat This is a nearly flawless restoration with the following exceptions: -Independent windshield wipers work sporadically -AM radio works well but tuner dial doesn't move needle These are both items I refuse to replace with new parts. I have gone through much time and expense finding refurbished hardware for the entire restoration and I'm still on the hunt for these two items. **Odometer is in working condition but not sure if 88,000 mileage is accurate, as the Bronco is nearly 50 yrs old. Due to age and smog exemption, no odometer readings available through Carfax, Autocheck, etc. I have no reason to believe this isn't the accurate mileage but simply can not guarantee it (just with any other classic that isn't original owner).** Sale comes with approx. $30,000 in documented receipts (parts and PROFESSIONAL labor) organized in 3-ring binder. This doesn't include the hours I have put into the restoration or the original sales price of the Bronco. For questions please email. I am more than happy to take additional pictures of any square inch requested. Serious inquiries only please. |

Detroit automakers mulling helping DIA avoid bankruptcy looting
Tue, 13 May 2014It's not really a secret that the city of Detroit is in lots and lots of trouble. Even with an emergency manager working to guide it through bankruptcy, a number of the city's institutions remain in very serious danger. One of the most notable is the Detroit Institute of Arts, a 658,000-square-foot behemoth of art that counts works from Van Gogh, Picasso, Gauguin and Rembrandt (not to mention a version of Rodin's iconic "The Thinker," shown above) as part of its permanent collection.
Throughout the bankruptcy, the DIA has been under threat, with art enthusiasts, historians and fans of the museum concerned that its expansive collection - valued between $454 and $867 million by Christie's - could be sold by the city to help square its $18.5-billion debt.
Now, though, Detroit's hometown automakers could be set to step up and help save the renowned museum. According to a report from The Detroit News, the charitable arms of General Motors, Ford and Chrysler could be set to donate $25 million as part of a DIA-initiated campaign, called the "grand bargain." As part of the deal, the DIA would seek $100 million in corporate donations as part of a larger attempt at putting together an $816-million package that would be paid to city pension funds over 20 years. Such a move would protect the city's art collection from being sold off.
Are you a new Ford Mustang SVO? [w/video]
Fri, 16 May 2014When Ford announced that its 2015 Mustang would arrive with a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, three letters came to mind: SVO. While Ford hasn't said a word regarding the rebirth of a Mustang SVO model, this latest set of spy shots shows us something very, very interesting. Allow us to explain.
The Mustang prototype in these photos looks very similar to the GT500 test cars we've spotted before - same bulging hood, aggressive front fascia and air vents aft of the front wheels. What's different, however, is around back. Have a look at the exhaust, and note that instead of the GT500's usual quad pipes, two of the exhaust outlets have been capped off.
Our spies point out that these exhaust outlets could be closed for some sort of emissions testing or another engineering reason, but it's also important to note that the engine and exhaust notes of this car sound completely different from earlier GT500 prototypes. We've got a video below that compares the two.
