For sale is a 1971 Bronco, Box A 46,000 miles, to the best of my knowledge the truck has spent most of its life on
the west coast. Truck features a fuel injected lightly built 302 with a aftermarket cam, headers, BBK intake and
70mm throttle body. Truck has air conditioning and uses a 93' mustang A3M1 ECU and wiring harness. The 302 is
backed with a AOD overdrive automatic and Dana 20 transfer case. A Ron Davis radiator from Wildhorse 4x4 handles
the cooling. Truck features disc brakes front and rear, with a Duffs booster and master cylinder setup. The truck
has been re-geared with 4.56's front and rear, features a Tom's bronco stage 12 5.5" lift, with TBP drive shafts.
The steering is handled with ease by a PSC HD hydraulic ram and HD steering box.
The truck was painted in and out at the beginning of the year with base coat/clear coat. The color chosen was
Ford CX Dark metallic, the top and dash were painted Ford Whimbleton white, at the same time the front floor pans
were replaced due to some rust spots, no other rust found on the truck. Truck has a TBP fiberglass hood with their
gas strut kit. The hood had some shallow cracks so I had a fiberglass shop repair them before paint. The floors
were stripped and coated with spray on bedliner, all the weather stripping was replaced, new door latches,
strikers, door panels, handles, mirrors, lenses and wiper arms installed. All new window felts, the original gauge
got new glass and new fuel gauge, all the knobs and beauty rings are new along with the steering wheel. The front
seats are brand new, driver side is on a slider, rear seat is original, but in very nice shape with one little tear
in the top corner.
The truck has a new rear fuel tank, new sending units in both tanks, has electronic fuel tank switch that replaced
the original manual valve, you can now switch tanks with the flip of a single switch, it handles not only the fuel
lines but the signals for the fuel gauge for each tank. The fuel pump and fuel filter are brand new, along with the
water pump, thermostat, belt tensioner and drive belt. The truck runs fantastic, starts right up with a really
nice lumpy idle.
The Bronco has 17x10" Raceline bead locks, wrapped in 35x12.5 Goodyear Kevlar Mt/R's. Easily have 90% tread, has
full size matching spare on a tire carrier equipped rear bumper. The front bumper has a 10k lb winch tucked inside
it. Truck drives down the street straight and true, doesn't dart or feel uncomfortable, cruise at 65mph at
1800-2000 rpm. The exterior glass is original to the best of my knowledge, has some scratches and hard water spots
but overall in good condition. There is one chip above the rear filler neck, it's been touched up nicely and isn't
noticeable. the headliner has a spot about the size of a quarter on the drive side where top color was pulled off
when the weather strip was being installed. The bottom of the truck is tidy, powder coat has some chips and signs
of use, nothing bad or unsightly, the chassis and bottom of body were all blacked out with under coating, no
obvious signs of damage, no leaks as far as I can tell, my garage floor is epoxied and it doesn't leave a drop.
Overall the truck is beautiful, I built it to drive and enjoy, it looks fantastic doing it, I get compliments at
practically every stoplight.

Ford Green Zone works magic with GPS to make your drive smarter, cleaner

Fri, Aug 29 2014

For the most part, plug-in hybrids rely on the power stored in the battery until that charge is depleted. Unless the switch can be changed manually, it's only then that the cars fire up the internal combustion engine and begin using the fossil fuels on board. This is ideal, of course, when one's drive isn't long enough that the car needs to start sipping gasoline at all. On longer commutes, when it's certain that the route is longer than the car's all-electric range, this isn't necessarily the most efficient use of energy. Ford's Green Zone system is designed to save some of that juice for the parts of the drive that require slower speeds. Ford is working on a smart system, based on Nokia mapping technology, that uses GPS data to use both the electricity and conventional fuel more efficiently. Since battery power is less efficient at highway speeds, Ford's Green Zone system is designed to save some of that juice for the parts of the drive that require slower speeds, rather than just using up all the electrons right at the beginning of the drive. Using a website or the in-car navigation system, the driver can pinpoint the parts of the route, highlighted in green, where using battery power would be more effective, and set the car to automatically switch to electricity for those sections. Depending on the route, the car could automatically switch back and forth between the two power sources multiple times, particularly if the drive is a mix between city and highway driving. Of course, Green Zone will be go beyond that. The program is being developed to take traffic and road grade into account, details that allow the car to be make even smarter choices to improve efficiency. Ford even hopes to have Green Zone learn driver habits, and respond accordingly depending on who is driving the car. The system could control other features as well, such as anticipating corners and shifting the headlights to better illuminate the road ahead. Green Zone could also potentially use information from vehicle-to-vehicle networking to control functions in the car. The Green Zone system still has a few years before it will be ready to be put into production vehicles, but Ford is confident it will make its way onto the road eventually. As with other innovations that improve efficiency and make our vehicles smarter, we can expect to see similar technology from other manufacturers, until it becomes a regular part of driving in the future.

Ford Fiesta banned from SCCA autocrossing because of rollover risk

Wed, Jan 14 2015

Autocross can be a great way to break into motorsports, especially at SCCA events that allow run-of-the-mill, street-legal vehicles to be run through the cones in parking lots across the country. But while a wide array of vehicles are eligible, not every one is. And now the Ford Fiesta has been removed from the list of qualifying vehicles in the Sports Car Club of America's Street category for solo events. The removal of the Fiesta was publicized in the latest issue of the SCCA's Fastrack News bulletin, which stated that, due to roll-over risk, Fiestas "do not meet the requirements and are to be removed" from the HS category of eligible vehicles. H Stock (or HS for short) is the lowest category of vehicles certified by the SCCA for use in sanctioned events. The disqualification applies to Fiestas from the 2011 model year onwards, and does not apply to the Fiesta ST, which remains eligible. Of course the Fiesta isn't the only model deemed ineligible for SCCA autocross events. According to Jalopnik, other small hatchbacks and crossovers including the Dodge Caliber, Fiat 500, Scion xB and iQ, Nissan Juke and Mini Countryman are also prohibited from competition. We've reached out to both Ford and the SCCA for clarification on the issue, and will issue an update if and when we receive any substantial information.

Bring back the Bronco! Trademarks we hope are actually (someday) future car names

Tue, Mar 17 2015

Trademark filings are the tea leaves of the auto industry. Read them carefully – and interpret them correctly – and you might be previewing an automaker's future product plans. Yes, they're routinely filed to maintain the rights to an iconic name. And sometimes they're only for toys and clothing. But not always. Sometimes, the truth is right in front of us. The trademark is required because a company actually wants to use the name on a new car. With that in mind, here's a list of intriguing trademark filings we want to see go from paperwork to production reality. Trademark: Bronco Company: Ford Previous Use: The Bronco was a long-running SUV that lived from 1966-1996. It's one of America's original SUVs and was responsible for the increased popularity of the segment. Still, it's best known as O.J. Simpson's would-be getaway car. We think: The Bronco was an icon. Everyone seems to want a Wrangler-fighter – Ford used to have a good one. Enough time has passed that the O.J. police chase isn't the immediate image conjured by the Bronco anymore. Even if we're doing a wish list in no particular order, the Bronco still finds its way to the top. For now (unfortunately), it's just federal paperwork. Rumors on this one can get especially heated. The official word from a Ford spokesman is: "Companies renew trademark filings to maintain ownership and control of the mark, even if it is not currently used. Ford values the iconic Bronco name and history." Trademarks: Aviator, AV8R Company: Ford Previous Use: The Aviator was one of the shortest-run Lincolns ever, lasting for the 2003-2005 model years. It never found the sales success of the Ford Explorer, with which it shared a platform. We Think: The Aviator name no longer fits with Lincoln's naming nomenclature. Too bad, it's better than any other name Lincoln currently uses, save for its former big brother, the Navigator. Perhaps we're barking up the wrong tree, though. Ford has made several customized, aviation themed-Mustangs in the past, including one called the Mustang AV8R in 2008, which had cues from the US Air Force's F-22 Raptor fighter jet. It sold for $500,000 at auction, and the glass roof – which is reminiscent of a fighter jet cockpit – helped Ford popularize the feature. Trademark: EcoBeast Company: Ford Previous Use: None by major carmakers.
