1972 Ford Bronco--Restored-- Equipped with Power Disk Brakes, Power Steering, 3 Speed Manual Transmission, Hard Doors and Hard Top. This Bronco was taken down completely and built from the ground up. We spared no expense and built this Bronco to last. The 302 motor was completely rebuilt and bored .30 over, with picture documentation. It has all new pistons, bearings, seals, gaskets, oil pump, fuel pump, water pump, chrome alternator, thermostat, custom aluminum hoses, radiator fan, aluminum radiator, new Edelbrock chrome intake, Edelbrock 4 barrell chrome carburetor, chrome brake booster and master cylinder, new overflow and the list goes on. The engine compartment was base coated and clear coated with the engine out with PPG paint and the underside of the Bronco was sprayed with a undercoating for preservation. The Transmission while it was out was completely gone through checked out and reassembled with new gaskets and fluid and the three speed shifter moved from the column to a Hurst floor shift. We had a brand new exhaust system installed with 40 Series FlowMaster exhaust by a local muffler shop. Both axles were completely taken out taken apart sandblasted down treated with Ospho primed and painted with high end paint. The front axle while apart we replaced seals, bushings, fluid, inner axle u-joints, drag arm bushings and new brake pads and calipers. The real axle has new seals, brake shoes and fluid. We ran all new brake lines with proportioning valve over the whole truck. The frame of the truck was sanded down with 100 grit, 200 grit and then finished with 300 grit sandpaper before we sparyed it with a 3M Under Paint for preservation. We installed all new body bushings, bolts, lock washers and nuts. It has a brand new 3 1/2 inch suspension lift with all new powder coated parts and Grade 8 bolts. Brand new shocks, steering stabilizer and boots. We had the radius arms sandblasted down then powder coated Bahama Blue and reinstalled with all new c-busings and radius bushings. We ordered new pre-runner bumpers, we had them powder coated and installed with new KC lights. We installed both bumpers with Grade 8 bolts and did not weld them in the case they ever had to be removed you were not cutting them or the frame off. We have almost Brand New Dynapro Hankook 35x12.50x15 tires sitting on brand new 15x10 Ion Alloy Wheels that were static balanced with only inner weights installed. The inside of the Bronco was sanded down any metal that needed to be replaced was replaced, then it was sprayed with Ospho then Rhino Lined for preservation and durability. The front and rear seats are original Bronco seats that we had re-cushioned and re-upholstered by a local custom upholstery shop. We also had them recover the dash pad with a high end very durable leather that just stands out and looks phenomenal. The dash was completely taken apart and painted Wimbledon White out of the vehicle then reinstalled. We do not tape the dash off and paint it as the finish product is half baked and unprofessional. We installed a new aftermarket RPM, oil pressure, voltage and temperature guages as the old ones tend to not be as reliable. All the gauges are back lit blue at night. We removed the old broken original steering wheel and installed a new Grant chrome and black steering wheel. The doors were taken apart and the panels were painted Wimbledon White and doors put together with all new door handles inside and out, new armrest, new mirrors, new door cups, new door hinges and bolts. Stainless and grade 8 bolts were used wherever possible. All new complete weather seals were installed around the doors and inside the door window tracks and under the hard top. We also had the front windshield and gasket replaced. The outside of the truck was completely sanded down to bare metal, any and all rust was treated and fixed. We then primed the body and re-seam sealed all the seams on the truck and completely smoothed out body to above original factory standards and then painted it Bahama Blue using PPG paint. Then the body was wet sanded from 1,000 grit to 2,000 grit then to 3,000 grit sandpaper then high speed buffed and polished to a beautiful finish. Their were (4) coats of clear coat put on this truck. The hard top was taken off sanded down prepped and treated for any rust, and painted Wimbledon White using PPG paint and wet sanded out to 2,000 grit sandpaper and then high speed buffed. The paint job on this truck took almost two months from start to finish, this includes body work, all paint was allowed to fully cure before the next step was done so we could get the best and long lasting paint job possible. This truck is one of a kind and was very meticulously taken down and put together. Their are many more parts that were put on and more things that were done to this bronco that I can not put them all in the listing. We have pictures of this bronco taken down and put back together so you will see that we are not claiming anything that has not been done to this truck. We will put a few pictures in the listing but can send more upon request. We build these Broncos as a personal hobby and enjoy doing them. We try to offer a top notch truck that is turn key ready to go with NOTHING that you will have to do to it but enjoy it. We welcome anybody, inspector or inspection company to come look at this Bronco before the auction ends as you will see just how much has been put into this Bronco. This Bronco is offered AS-IS and a nonrefundable deposit of $1,000 due within 24 hrs of auction end. Look at my feedback and how long I have been on Ebay and bid with confidence. If you have been looking for a mint condition Bronco this is the one for you. All realistic offers will be considered, but this bronco is priced right for the quality of the build. If you have any question do not hesitate to ask.

National Geographic Channel balances Ford F-150 on four coffee mugs
Wed, 29 Jan 2014Proving that there is still something to be learned on television these days, National Geographic Channel recently introduced a new series called Duck Quacks Don't Echo. On the first episode of this science/comedy show, host Michael Ian Black proposes the idea that a truck can be supported with a ceramic coffee mug under each wheel - yes, he says that the entire weight of a truck can be balanced on just four coffee mugs.
Looking to find out whether this is fact or myth, the show uses a regular cab Ford F-150, weighing in at 4,800 pounds, and four average coffee mugs. Lowered onto the mugs, the idea is quickly put to the test. Can the cups hold up under 4,800 pounds? If so, what, exactly, would it take to break them? Scroll down below to find out.
Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line
Wed, 05 Jan 2011The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.

Ford GT40 makes historic return to racing at Goodwood
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Is there a more iconic, American racecar than the Ford GT40? That may be a discussion for another day (although by all means, tell us how wrong we are in Comments), but this video of heaps of GT40s running in the Goodwood Revival races certainly has us thinking that Ford's Ferrari-killer might just be the best racer the Land Of The Free and Home Of The Brave has ever come up with.
That's completely ignoring the fact that the GT40 was largely developed by Brits using American money, but that's besides the point (there was also a rather brash Texan, who had a big role later in development). The resulting vehicle was dominant, besting the cars of Il Commendatore from 1966 to 1969, although it should be noted that Ford's GT40 was unable to beat Ferrari in its first two Le Mans outings in 1964 and 1965.
Those four years of dominance, which started with Ford sweeping the podium, were enough to establish the GT40's legend. And now, here we are almost 50 years later, celebrating the mid-engined monsters at Goodwood, in their first ever one-make race. Take a look below for the entire video.
