This Bronco was originally owned by a friend of my father. My first trip four wheeling in it was when I was about 10 years old. That was about 34 years ago and I fell in love with the truck. He finally sold it to me in 1998. It was a rough old duck hunting vehicle then. I spent about 5 years and every dime I had restoring it according to my wife. It's been done about 3 years. I have receipts over $40,000.00 from all the usual places you go for Bronco's. It was painted on rotisirre and the underside looks just like the top side. The chassis was completely disassembled and everything was powder coated, axles and all.It's got hydroboost brakes with disc up front. I did new power steering, gear box and all that. It has new oversized fuel tank assembly. Most importanly I keep hearing everyone say Foose is doing a Bronco with steel welded in rear fender opening. I am proud to say I beat him by 4 years. We welded in arches from another pair of stock front fenders so they's match front to rear. The cobra jet style hood scoop is all steel too. It was originally done becasue I thought I would need air cleaner clearance but the hood retains it's original structure underneath. There was heat and sound deadening material done under floor rubber and headliner. The Weld Wheels were "one off" when I ordered them but there may be more in existence now. They weren't custom for me but there was only the prototype in existance when they made these. I love the ole bullet holes but wanted to be original. I don't think a lot of the new Ghetto wheels work on an Early either. The motor was completely rebuilt. Nothing special, pretty big hydraulic cam and some bolt ons as you can see. Hit me with your questions as I'm sure I've forgotten plenty. And if Alan Jackson is reading this please buy it and remake the "Drive" video. That's my story too.

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost flogged and analyzed by Ignition
Mon, 13 Oct 2014Aside from the way it looks and perhaps its independent rear suspension, the biggest bit of news on the 2015 Mustang may be the inclusion of its 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. That blown mill marks the first time since the Mustang SVO of the '80s that a turbo has been fitted under the engine of Ford's pony car.
The Mustang EcoBoost is the subject of the latest episode of Ignition from Motor Trend, giving us a great look at the technical, nitty-gritty side of the turbocharged coupe. Covering it from bow to stern, host Carlos Lago walks us through the boosted Ford before taking to the track for some driving impressions, with particular praise given to the low-end grunt of the 2.3-liter mill.
Check out the full video and then let us know which 2015 Mustang has your interest piqued the most - the EcoBoost four, the 5.0L V8 or the entry-level V6.

2015 Ford Mustang stars in bizarrely awesome '80s aerobics video
Wed, 30 Apr 2014For reasons we can't comprehend, here's a music video starring the all-new, 2015 Ford Mustang and a number of dancers dressed and styled in the most stereotypically 1980s way possible. The dancers then take part in a male-versus-female dance off. Again, we've no idea why it exists.
It's weird, and for the second time in two weeks, we're sat at our computer wondering, "What are we watching?" That said, it does show the new Mustang from a number of angles, and it's one of the first car-related YouTube videos we've seen that's available in a 4K, ultra-high-def stream.
