1971 Ford Bronco on 2040-cars
Armona, California, United States
Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : burchard73@zoho.com .
Hi, I'm selling my personal frame off resto-mod Bronco. I purchased this for the sole purpose to build an
incredible show car and weekend driver. The restoration took almost two years and no expense spared. The body was
removed and the entire bronco taken apart. The body was blasted and the panels that needed to be replaced were. Not
necessarily from any issues but wanted to have the best canvas to start with. The body was then sealed and sent to
the body shop for paint. There was over 120 hours spent on making sure that the Lamborghini paint was going to be
prefect. The under side was coated with a bedliner type paint. The frame was sent to blast as well and was painted
with a frame gloss black paint. A disc brake conversion and new brake and fuel lines were installed as well as all
body mounts, shocks, gas tank and skid plate, springs (3 1/2), bumpers and t-case mount. The top was also blasted
sealed and painted and installed all new glass, seals, shocks, and hardware. Once the body was painted is was
placed back on the frame for final assembly. I installed a brand new create 302 and every nut and bolt was
replaced. The engine has new valve covers, manifold, ignition, oil pan, carb, plug wires, fuel pump, water pump,
fan, radiator, radiator hoses, belts alternator, and power steering pump. I also had a custom intake done so that
there was no clearance issues with the new factory hood. The transmission shifter cane was customized and installed
to allow the np435 to clear with a very clean look. The interior was completely insulated and all new carpet was
installed. 4 speakers were installed as well as an amp that allows you to play your phone through the speakers with
no head unit. A new console was installed and custom switch panel with push button start was fabricated to be
locked into the console for parking and storage. All new front and rear seats were installed along with new trim
and seat brackets. Racing seat belts were installed for the front seats. The dash was custom made for the auto
meter gauges. All new column, steering wheel, intermediate steering shaft, pedals, and dash were installed. The
wiring was a new kit and was made with custom hidden fuse box. All wiring was done, terminated, and loomed. New led
tail lights. The all new windshield, seals, door seals, inner door mechanics, door panels, door glass, mirrors,
handles, hinges and latches were installed. A custom roll cage was built, powder coated and installed.
Almost every single nut or bolt was replaced with ford bronco specific hardware. A custom dual flow master exhaust
was done.
All new driveshafts, joints and hardware
Basically everything is new
I am not a company that built this as a cookie cutter for profit. This bronco was built as a 1 off custom build for
my personal collection.
Before delivery the bronco will be sent out for polishing, break in oil change, once over on all bolts to ensure
its perfect. There was a couple small things that need touched up from the final assembly. I have put roughly 60
miles on it sense it was completed. It is absolutely incredible to drive. Life has changed in the last two years
and I can no longer keep it. If the bronco doesn't sell for what the market dictates for a build like this then it
will wait to be sold at either Barrett Jackson or Mecum later this year. Thank you for looking and let me know if
you have any questions.
I am located in Northern California and buyer is responsible for pickup. I will help facilitate though.

Ford, GM still doing new business with Takata amidst airbag crisis
Thu, Nov 20 2014Lengthy vehicle development times make it difficult for automakers to cut and run from the supplier. You might expect automakers to be fleeing any connection with beleaguered supplier Takata in the wake of the company's exploding airbag inflator crisis. After all, with a Senate hearing, pending lawsuit, plummeting stock value and demand for a national recall, the tier-one supplier isn't at its strongest right now. However, years of cooperation mean that automakers are standing by Takata, and necessity may be playing a role, as well. About 39 percent of Takata's business comes from airbags, and seatbelts make up another significant chunk of the operation too, says Bloomberg. The long-term relationships and lengthy vehicle development times make it difficult for automakers to cut and run from the supplier. "Takata has so much product breadth that I don't really see that they could just disappear," said AutoPacific analyst Dave Sullivan to Bloomberg. For example, Takata helped develop the unique front center airbag with General Motors in models like the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave. Outside of safety tech, it is also a partner with Ford on the adaptive steering system available on the upcoming 2015 Edge. These long-lasting partnerships make change difficult now that there's a problem. According to Reuters, automakers claim it would take a year or longer to set up with a different supplier for replacement airbag inflators. Switching to a completely different part for the repairs might not be a viable option either, because of the engineering time needed. BMW is taking action, though. According to Reuters, the Bavarian brand is working with the supplier to move inflator production from Monclova, Mexico, to a Takata factory in Freiburg, Germany. The Mexican plant may be the source of some of the faulty parts. News Source: Bloomberg, ReutersImage Credit: Jens Meyer / AP Photo BMW Ford GM Safety Takata airbag recall
Brits recreate iconic Bullitt chase scene
Tue, 13 May 2014Recreating the famous chase scene from Bullitt has become almost an art form in its own right. We've seen it done in a music video, with scale models and even in commercials. There are few films that are as defined by a single scene as the 1968 classic. Even if you don't know a single beat of the plot, the Highland Green Ford Mustang racing a Dodge Charger through the hilly streets of San Francisco is famous. It's so well known that the Silverstone Classic has created a homage to promote its celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Mustang at this year's event in July.
Filmed around the famous UK circuit, the short film generally gets the key points of the scene right. It even has a green Volkswagen Beetle that keeps reappearing, as in the movie. Unfortunately, its Steve McQueen stand-in looks a little too old for the role. While the video shortens the chase considerably, it's still great to see these '60s behemoths leaning and sliding around the track. Scroll down for a touch of nostalgia thanks to one of the greatest scenes ever in cinema - we've got both the recreation and the original chase seen from the movie waiting for you.
Are you Ford's next Bullitt Mustang? [w/poll]
Thu, 27 Mar 2014Ford has a long history of offering special editions of its legendary Mustang. One of the most vaunted of those trim packages, though, has only been offered twice. The first time was in 2001, and then again in 2008. Yes, we're talking about the Bullitt.
Named for the infamous Dark Highland Green Mustang Fastback driven by Steve McQueen in the 1968 cop melodrama Bullitt, the car was famous for not just its pilot, but the high-speed chase it took part in during the movie. Now, we think we have images of the next Bullitt.
According to our spy photographers, the paint is a "dead-ringer" for the Dark Highland Green that has signified these special edition Mustangs. While we're inclined to agree, it's also worth pointing out that this shade looks very similar to one of the 2015's other new colors, Guard. We've yet to see one on the road (let alone in such dreary conditions), so it's tough to say for certain.
