1967 Ford Military Bronco on 2040-cars

Year:1967 Mileage:116000
Location:

Soperton, Georgia, United States

Soperton, Georgia, United States

 

For sale is a 1967 Military Bronco.  It is 1 of 125 that was issued to the military in 1967 for them to test.   I would like to see it restored to military specs, but realize I never will so I am parting with it.

The bronco runs and drives great.

  • 200 six cylinder, stock 411 gears, manual drum brakes, and manual steering

  • New polyurethane bushing kit in the front end

  • 4 new shocks

  • New radiator 

  • New water pump.

The body is solid with a few dents, dings, and issues as it is a 46 year old unrestored bronco.  The rust is minimal.

  • Some surface rust in areas on the roof and a few on the body when the paint is chipped off. 

  • It has a rusted through place by the right rear quarter panel in the seam which is in the pictures.

  • It has a welded up spot on the driver’s door seal where is looks like something punctured it, but is not rust.

  • The rear quarters have been cut and raised 1-2 inches.

  • It does have some pitting under the battery box and a few small places in the bed area, but not rusted through.

  • The doors have small splits where the mirrors bolt.  The split is probably 1-1.5 inches long.  I have been told that it is common on broncos, I guess the mirror vibrating going down the road made it split.  It can be spot welded up easily.

Other things to note:

  • It also has been converted to electric wipers from the vacuum wipers.

  • New door seals

  • New lift gate seal

  • New tail gate seal

  • Door hinges have been rebuilt

Military broncos had a dash plate stating the branch it was issued too.  It is missing the military dash plate, but has two stickers on the glove box with one reading about wearing seat belts and the other reading about the vehicle being under warranty as long it is in the 50 states. It has a government DSO code, it is a U15, and I have a Marti report stating its destination verifying it is a military bronco.

This Or That: Fiat 500 Abarth vs. Ford Fiesta ST [w/poll]

Thu, 21 Aug 2014



They're pretty darn similar. And yet our views are oh so different.
If you guys could read the transcripts of our editors' chat room, you'd know that we're a pretty argumentative bunch. It's always good-spirited stuff (well, usually), but when we're not obsessively covering this or that, we're usually fighting about one car being better than another. We're all enthusiasts here, and our automotive tastes run the gamut from the weird and unusual to the decidedly mainstream - we all feel strongly about specific cars in a given segment. While it usually makes for good conversation, if we're passionate enough, it can turn into a tomato-throwing showdown.

Ford UK exec says EVs are a good way to lose a fortune

Wed, Mar 19 2014

Stateside, Ford execs are quick to point out the automaker's expansion in the plug-in sector. And despite a minimal presence in the pure EV space, the Blue Oval has been promoting its plug-in vehicles as part of an overall effort to boost fleetwide fuel economy. Too bad the company's UK chief didn't get the memo. There's "no point in us getting behind [EVs] and losing a fortune" - Ford's Mark Ovenden Mark Ovenden, speaking rather frankly at the Geneva Motor Show recently, said he didn't have real high hopes for substantial electric-vehicle adoption and said the company's money was better spent on smaller gas- and diesel-powered engines, the UK's Daily Mail says. Ovenden said of EV development that there was "no point in us getting behind it and losing a fortune," adding that his goal was to have variants of Ford's EcoBoost engine in 40 percent of the company's vehicles. Ford has about a 15-percent market share in the UK. The UK doesn't appear to be as kind to the EV as the US. Nissan last year cut the price of its all-electric Leaf there last year by about $4,000, while the company rolled out a promotion for the Leaf late last year, including allowing Leaf drivers to borrow a gas- or diesel-powered Nissan for free for as long as two weeks a year during the first three years of Leaf ownership. In the US, Ford sold just 229 Ford Focus Electrics during the first two months of the year after moving 1,738 units in 2013.

US Ford Focus RS to be imported from Europe

Tue, 21 Oct 2014

Rumors about the forthcoming Ford Focus RS are flourishing into what sounds like a very impressive new hot hatch. The latest scuttlebutt gives the first indication about when we might see a few of these fast Focuses on roads here in the US.
Unnamed insiders reportedly confirmed to The Truth About Cars that Ford plans to launch the Focus RS in the US in 2016. However, getting one might not be so easy - the boosted powertrain means the car would likely need to be imported from Europe. That's likely going to keep the total number available in the US rather low. The sources estimate a price tag that's a bit more expensive than the top Focus ST3, which starts around $28,500, plus $825 destination.
It seems that a pretty potent package comes for all of that cash, though. The Focus RS reportedly uses a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making between 325 and 350 horsepower, with a torque-vectoring all-wheel drive system to get that muscle to the road. The test mules also wear more aggressive front and rear fascias, dual exhaust tips, larger brakes and sticky tires. It sounds like a great formula on top of the already enjoyable Focus ST.
