FOR SALE to the highest bidder - my 1971 Ford Bronco.
It has a clear title and current Calif. reg. through April 2014. Winning bidder is responsible for pick up or shipping arrangements.
It has a freshly rebuilt 302 V8 motor less than 250 miles ago.
New pistons ( engine block bored .030+) and rings, cam, cam bearings, lifters, timing set, rod and main bearings -( crank machined - .010 and .010.) , new freeze plugs, valve guides, valve job done, all new seals and gaskets, oil pump, oil and temperature sending units, thermostat, water pump, radiator rodded and boiled with pressure test, new heater core, radiator and heater hoses, new coolant recovery system, new belts, rebuilt starter and alternator, 2 barrel carburetor rebuilt with electric automatic choke added, new fuel pump, fuel filter with all fuel lines and tank filler hoses replaced, new air cleaner, PCV valve, coil, spark plugs, spark plug wires, MSD electronic ignition distributor. New clutch assembly. New front and rear drum brakes, new shocks front and rear and a new steering stabilizer. New Painless Wiring kit, specific for Ford Bronco. Virtually the entire wiring system has been replaced including the wiring loom in the steering column. The sending units in the gas tanks tested within normal limits, so I didn't replace them, both work and switch on the dash with the manual tank switch at the base of the front driver's seat. All fluids were drained and replaced and all zerks and bearings were packed or lubed. The previous owner had replaced the 3 speed transmission with a 4 speed NP435, it shifts great. Transfercase is a Dana C20, front differential is a Dana 44 with warn hubs and rear end is a Ford 9 inch. Drivelines and Ujoints are good, no vibrations and feel tight. The truck has dual exhaust glass pack mufflers, tires are BF Goodrich and are fair. Paint is ok for a 42 year old vehicle with what appears to be one re-paint, it used to be green. It does have chips, scratches, faded spots etc... some call it "Patina". I have a brand new complete weatherstrip kit for the doors and top,( from Tom's Bronco Parts), that will be included with the sale. I replaced both driver and front passenger seat foam rubber cushions and installed new upholstery kits, the rear seat looked ok. I installed new door latches, window cranks and rear hatch struts plus many, many other little repairs and fixes. It doesn't have a radio, but the Painless kit wiring is all there, very well marked and ready to go. The dash had been cut for a stereo at one time, so I covered the hole. The only thing that isn't hooked up is the horn button, as I didn't have all the necessary hardware for it. This is a very sound rust free body, no rust out anywhere, just a few surface rust areas in the floor boards that I could see. Someone layed fiberglass mesh on the front floor boards, it could be replaced or redone, maybe Herculiner or something like that. Please see the pictures showing the inside and also the under carriage. This little truck is really fun to drive and gets looks and comments wherever I go. Ready for camping, beach , hunting, you name it.
If you have any questions please email through ebay and I'll try to answer as soon as possible. Thanks for looking. Vehicle is sold AS- IS.

The electronic ignition distributor is a Mallory and not MSD. Also, it will have a few more miles on it by the auction's end, as I am driving it. Thanks for looking.

Ford Australia debuts Ranger-based Everest SUV concept
Tue, 13 Aug 2013Ford has been in hot water in Australia ever since it announced plans to end local production of the Falcon and Territory SUV. Besides canceling a model that is to Oz what the Mustang is to America, the end of production means more than a few folks will be out of work.
Keen to prove that it has a plan for the market, Ford has unveiled the Aussie-penned Everest Concept, a rough-and-tumble, seven-seat SUV. While not a direct replacement for the aging Territory (that role will eventually be filled by either the Edge or Flex, according to Car Advice) it's an indication from Ford's brass that the Blue Oval is still committed to Australia.
To prove that fact, Alan Mullaly, Mark Fields, Jim Farley and regional execs descended on Sydney for the debut of the new concept. Ford's Australian president and CEO, Bob Graziano, said of the Everest, "Our customers, our employees and Australia can be assured that we're connected to the nation and committed to our customers through terrific products with class-leading technologies."
Next Ford F-150 delayed for aluminum body panel issues?
Wed, 11 Dec 2013The timetable for next-generation Ford F-150 may be in trouble if a report from The Truth About Cars is true. The next F-150 is slated to make extensive use of weight-saving aluminum in its body, but the aluminum alloy provided by suppliers hasn't met Ford's requirements in the earliest phases of pre-production, according to the report.
The F-150 represents a huge portion of Ford's profits and is the best-selling truck in the US, even in the face of increased pressure from cross-town rivals General Motors and Ram. While the current truck is treading water against its competition, we'd be lying if we said the F-150 weren't growing quite long in the tooth.
If production of the next-generation of the Ford cash cow, said to be based on the Atlas Concept from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show (pictured above), is delayed, it could be bad for Ford. Production at Ford's Dearborn Truck Plant is already set to be delayed six to ten weeks, missing an internal on-sale deadline of Memorial Day.
Ford exec downplays idea of aluminum-intensive cars
Thu, Jan 15 2015Ford certainly made waves when it rolled out the all-new 2015 F-150 made primarily out of aluminum. But while trimming weight off its vehicles is a top priority for the Detroit automaker, we shouldn't expect the lightweight metal to be used as widely on passenger cars as it has been on its new pickup. Speaking at the Automotive News World Congress on Wednesday, top Ford exec Joe Hinrichs said that using aluminum in passenger cars isn't as beneficial as it is in trucks – primarily because the weight savings isn't as dramatic, or as deeply needed. Though improved fuel economy is certainly one advantage of aluminum construction in a truck like the F-150, low prices at the pump have prompted Ford to highlight another advantage, and that's capability: With less weight on its own, a lighter-weight truck can carry and tow more than a heavier one, because it all comes down to combined weight ratings. Ford is expected to make the new F-Series Super Duty largely out of aluminum for the same reasons, and we wouldn't be surprised to see the next Expedition use the material as well. But while certain components in Ford passenger cars will be made of aluminum, we shouldn't expect entire chassis and bodywork assemblies to use the material as extensively as on the F-150, or on more upscale passenger cars from the likes of Audi or Jaguar. Dearborn is, however, investing in other lightweight materials. It has a joint venture with Dow Chemical to put carbon fiber into mass production, much as BMW has with its i3. The Blue Oval will use a combination of carbon and aluminum on its 2017 GT supercar, and it has stripped weight by removing amenities from the 2016 Mustang GT350R, but apparently neither is a method Ford can practically apply to its volume models.
