Original Classic 1970 Ford Bronco 76,911 Original Miles 302 V-8 Perfect Body Uncut New Paint Showroom Piece Super Clean Interior New Tires Drum Brakes New Door Seals Rebuilt Carburetor You are looking at a 1970 Original Ford Bronco with 76,911 original mile. The Bronco is an unrestored other than it was repainted the original color a few years ago. The Bronco has been garaged and everything works on the drive very well. The tires are are in excellent condition. The All the doors are straight and shut tight. The seats, headliner, radio (AM), antenna..... really everything I can think of looks and works well. The engine runs great and has always been tuned by a local classic car guy who owns a shop and knows how to tune properly. It has the original distributor and runs points. Never upgraded to electronic ignition as it's easy to care for and really kind of cool being original. The exhaust is also original and works well. Both fuel tanks work well and the valve to switch tanks works also. All instrument panels and lights, gauges work. All chrome bumpers are in great condition I believe to original It has some factory options, the 4:10 rear differential and 9" Ford rear axle. That means with the 302 V-8 (first year of what would become the 5.0 Mustang motor in the early 80's - underrated at 205 bhp and 300 lb/ft of torque) and the three speed manual column shifter (3-on-the-tree) get poor gas mileage (about 10mpg), but will climb the side of a mountain like a billy-goat. It's purpose built, of course. History: The original owner bought the Bronco new and it spent its life as a daily driver from 1970-2007 in Durango, Colorado. Then the 2nd owner who was a collector bought it and repainted it and cleaned it up and it has sat garaged since 2007. I believe he may have put 1000 miles on it in 5-6 years. I bought the Bronco to be a daily drive for me to make my big 1 mile commute to work everyday. Needless say I haven't been driving it and I have a a few cars and I am needing to make some garage space. Please note the only issue I have found on the Bronco is the inside left engine sidewall has barley rusted through , overall there is a 2" round part where the metal is thin.(Please see pictures). There is a black mark like possibly something in the engine compartment got on the sidewall and accelerated the process. Also there is a small bulldog hood ornament the prior own put on. Other than that the Bronco is perfect and run great.

Mustang retakes monthly pony car sales crown from Camaro
Wed, Dec 3 2014Going back to their origins in the Swinging '60s, the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro have been fierce rivals for fans' hearts and dollars. Historically, the Ford often led in volume, but Chevy took the muscle car top spot in 2009 upon the Camaro's rebirth. However, with the launch of the latest Blue Oval pony car, the tide is turning back in Ford's favor. November was the first full month of sales for the new 2015 Mustang, and according to TheDetroitBureau.com, the model did spectacularly well. The Blue Oval shifted 8,728 of them, up 62 percent from same month last year, with the automaker proclaiming it the model's best November sales since 2006. Conversely, 4,385 units of the Camaro were delivered, down 13.5 percent year-over-year, meaning its sales were roughly half that of the new-generation Mustang. Ford is understandably happy with the results, and product development director Raj Nair even hinted to TDB that another version of the Mustang might be unveiled at January's North American International Auto Show. Rumor has it that the model will be the even more potent Shelby Mustang GT350R. Despite the Mustang's November success, the Camaro outsells it year to day. So far in 2014, Ford has sold 73,124 Mustangs versus 79,669 examples of the Camaro. With December offering the last chance for an overtake, the Bowtie may yet remain king for this year's sales crown. A new Camaro is peeking over the horizon, as well. It's reportedly moving to the Alpha platform used by the Cadillac ATS, and production could start in late 2015. Prototypes are already testing at the Nurburgring, and camouflaged examples have been spotted weirdly being compared to its '80s forefather.
NHTSA closes book on Ford, GM probes of 600,000 vehicles
Thu, Nov 27 2014US safety regulators have closed a pair of investigations into some 500,000 Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis and Marauder sedans built between 2004 to 2007, and 100,000 Chevrolet Impala models from 2014. The Ford investigation focused on rusting heat shields, which may become dislodged and jam the steering, according to Reuters. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that this happened very rarely. In fact, of the ten incidents filed with the government safety watchdog, six came from a single police department, which evidently had some sort of problem with its reporting. As for the Impala, the NHTSA investigators attributed two incidences of "unintended autonomous braking" to user error. In both cases, the vehicles were involved in rear-end collisions. According to GM investigators, it's believed that drivers accidentally activated the electric parking brake, causing the collisions. The vehicles in question were rental cars.

Ford mulling EcoSport for US? [w/poll]
Mon, 03 Jun 2013"We certainly have that ability. We're studying it very, very closely." Those are the words of Jim Farley, global head of sales, marketing, service at Ford. The investigation Farley is referring to is the possibility of selling the company's new EcoSport crossover in America.
The diminutive Fiesta-based EcoSport was developed for emerging markets like Brazil and, more recently, China, but it apparently may have a future in the States, where it would form a new entry-level rung below the Escape in Ford's already robust crossover stable. Ford has big plans for its tiny CUV - Farley tells Automotive News that the EcoSport is only available in 10 countries right now, but by 2017, its distribution will have mushroomed to 62 countries. At the time the second-generation model launched at the 2012 Beijing Motor Show as a 2013 model, Ford said the EcoSport would eventually be sold in nearly 100 markets worldwide.
The Brazilian- and Indian-assembled EcoSport is available with a variety of gasoline-powered engines, but the 1.0-liter, three-cylinder EcoBoost giving 118 horsepower and 125 pound-feet of torque would seem to be the powertrain of choice for America, as it was recently confirmed for the stateside 2014 Fiesta.
