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.

Watch how Ken Block spent his weekend in Barbados

Thu, 22 May 2014

Regardless of what you think of his skill as a racer, Ken Block is an expert showman. At this point, he has a career of showing up around the world to do vehicular stunts, and he's still able to go racing as well. It's a pretty sweet niche to carve out. Recently, Block was in Barbados to participate in Top Gear Live and the first event of the Global Rallycross Championship season, and Ford Racing produced a short video to show off his exploits.
It looked like a great show. Block got to race Lewis Hamilton in a Mercedes-Benz Formula One car and had a very weird crash during a Rallycross race that put his Ford Fiesta on its roof. Top Gear also released an extended look at Block and Hamilton's spectacle with the two of them expertly sliding around. Scroll down to watch the videos and get a taste of Block's tropical racing adventure.

The Civic Coupe is a striking redesign of an extremely popular and important model for the company. And the restyled Ford Escape looks more like its bigger brother, the Explorer. There's this an much more in our video above. Watch it and let us know what you think – and look for more LA Auto Show coverage coming soon.

2014 Ford Fusion to get 1.5L EcoBoost three-cylinder?

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Just one year after launching the all-new 2013 Fusion, Ford is reportedly set to alter the sedan's powertrain lineup with the addition of a new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. A member of Blue Oval Forums apparently got their hands on the ordering guide for the 2014 model year Fusion, and this 1.5-liter mill is set to be introduced with late availability.
This lines up with other news about the Chinese-market Mondeo being offered with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost - a derivative of the 1.0-liter triple that will come to North America under the hood of the Fiesta (note: the 1.0 is also offered in the current Euro-spec Mondeo). In the Chinese application, the larger three-pot engine produces 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, which is very close to the current 1.6-liter inline-four's output numbers of 178 hp and 184 lb-ft.
What's interesting, however, is that the 1.6-liter engine will reportedly still be offered in the Fusion, but only with the six-speed manual transmission. The smaller 1.5-liter EcoBoost will only be mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic, and will feature start/stop. This means that while the 1.5 is slightly down on power compared to the 1.6, it could easily improve fuel economy numbers, allowing the Fusion to regain the title of having the best mileage in the segment, likely besting the 38 miles per gallon of the Nissan Altima. Currently, the Fusion 1.6 is rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.
