ANY QUESTIONS JUST EMAIL ME: palmapddardenne@sennafans.com .
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 Mustang Mach-E fails Sweden's moose test
Wed, Sep 29 2021The infamous moose test has claimed another casualty. This time it's the Ford Mustang Mach-E AWD Long Range, which was tested in an electric four-way alongside the Tesla Model Y, Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Skoda Enyaq iV (an electric utility vehicle closely related to the Volkswagen ID.4 that is sold in the United States). According to the Swedish testers at Teknikens Varld, Ford's electric car not only failed to hit the speed necessary for a passing grade, it didn't perform well at slower speeds, either. To pass the outlet's moose test, a car has to complete a rapid left-right-straight S-shaped pattern marked by cones at a speed of at least 72 km/h (44.7 miles per hour). The test is designed to mimic the type of avoidance maneuver a driver would have to take in order to avoid hitting something that wandered into the road, which in Sweden may be a moose but could just as easily be a deer or some other member of the animal kingdom elsewhere in the world, or possibly a child or car backing into the motorway. Not only is the maneuver very aggressive, it's also performed with weights belted into each seat and more weight added to the cargo area to hit the vehicle's maximum allowable carrying capacity. The Mustang Mach-E only managed to complete the moose test at 68 km/h (42.3 mph), well below the passing-grade threshold. Even at much lower speeds, Teknikens Varld says the Mach-E (which boasts the highest carrying capacity and was therefore loaded with more weight than the rest of the vehicles tested in this quartet) is "too soft in the chassis" and suffers from "too slow steering." Proving that it is indeed possible to pass the test, the Hyundai and Skoda completed the maneuver at the 44.7-mph figure required for a passing grade and the Tesla did it at 46.6 mph, albeit with less weight in the cargo area. It's not clear whether other versions of the Mustang Mach-E would pass the test. It's also unknown if Ford will make any changes to its chassis tuning or electronic stability control software, as some other automakers have done after a poor performance from Teknikens Varld, to improve its performance in the moose test.

Ford cuts production at 5 plants, has big backload of cars including Mustang
Wed, Sep 20 2017DETROIT — Ford said on Tuesday it plans to idle five North American vehicle assembly plants for a total of 10 weeks to reduce inventories of slow-selling models. The plants affected include three assembly plants in the United States and two in Mexico, the company said in a statement. The vehicle models include the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ midsize sedans, the Ford Focus compact car, the Lincoln Continental and Ford Mustang, Ford Fiesta and the Ford Transit van. Ford said the Cuautitlan assembly plant that builds the Fiesta would be idled for three weeks. The Hermosillo, Mexico plant that builds the Fusion and MKZ and the Flat Rock, Michigan, factory that assembles Continentals and Mustangs will be idled for two weeks each. The Michigan Assembly plant that builds the Focus will be idled for one week, and the Kansas City assembly line that builds Transit vans will be down for two weeks. Ford did not give dates for the temporary shutdowns. The factories involved employ more than 15,000 people, according to Ford's website. The company did not say how many of those workers would face temporary layoffs. As of Sept. 1, Ford had 111 days' worth of unsold Mustangs, 87 days' supply of Fusions, and a 103 days' supply of Transit vans, according to Automotive News. Dealers had enough unsold Lincoln Continentals to last 162 days. Automakers aim for 65 to 70 days of inventory of most models. Ford and rival General Motors have wrestled most of this year to rein in high inventories of passenger cars as consumers have shifted to buying pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles. Production cuts slice into revenue, but also could help the automakers avoid deeper price cuts on vehicles they can sell.

Ford posts decade-best $2.1B profit in Q1 2013
Wed, 24 Apr 2013As predicted, Ford has reported that its first quarter of 2013 was a resounding success overall, with a pretax profit of $2.1 billion ($0.41 per share), and a net income of $1.6 billion ($0.40 per share). In fact, Ford made a pretax profit of some $2.4 billion in its home North American market, with that total number being pulled down by losses in South America and Europe. That gaudy North American profit is the strongest result by the automaker since 2000.
Ford's companywide profit for Q1 was down $147 million from one year ago, while the net income number marked an increase of $215 million year over year. Overall, this is Ford's 15th-consecutive profitable quarter.
The bad news from the European market was even worst in Q1 2013 than it was last year. Pretax losses of $462 million - on revenue of $6.7 billion - represented a year-over-year change of -$313 million. In South American, the company reported a loss of $218 million, down from a slim profit of $54 million in Q1 2012. The news was better for Ford Asia Pacific Africa, where a $6 million pretax profit in 2013 showed a year-over-year gain of some $101 million when compared to losses in 2012.
