Vehicle Description Hi everyone and thank you for taking the time to look and hopefully bid on my Bronco. Here is the basic story on it. It is a 1978 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT. I have owned it for 4 years. It has many rare options and has nothing wrong with it, AT ALL! It looks, drives, starts, and runs perfect. Everything works as it should, because almost the whole truck is new. The engine is a 351m New block with about 600 miles. The transmission is a c6 rebuilt with about 5000 miles. The transfer case had new seals and bearings put in when the transmission was rebuilt. The front and rear axles are rebuilt with 5000 miles. ...................... The entire brake system is brand new with about 5000 miles. The radiator is brand new. The whole truck was taken down to bare metal. The only rust that was in the truck was on the hood, bottom of the tailgate, and on the inside bottom of the doors. The hood is a brand new NOS from NPD. The other rusty metal was cut out and new metal welded in. The paint is mirror flat and consists of 3coats of Eastwood company’s rust encapsulation (to prevent rust),3 coats of sealer, 3coats of HOK Base white mixed with micro glass flake and pearl, 5 coats of clear then wet sanded and buffed. Every piece of trim, emblems, chrome is brand new. The whole interior is new accept for the locking hood latch, sport steering wheel and roll bar(bar was painted white to match).The wheels and tires are brand new as well. This Bronco was built with pride!!! All work was done by professional shops. I have every receipt for everything I have ever done. I have put over $23,000 in it and can prove it. I also have photo documentation. It has been in 4 car shows. Took home 3, 1st places and a second place trophy. The second place trophy was won at Carlisle All Truck Nationals which is the largest truck show on the east coast. My Bronco is also featured in an issue of Bronco Driver Magazine. It has never been off road since completed in July of 2006. It was built as a show truck not a mud truck! Although it would have no problem with off road. If you win my Bronco you will without a doubt be very happy! Please, I encourage anyone who can come and see it to do so! Call me anytime, just leave a message if I don’t answer. 763-226-0166. Any questions or concerns please contact me. My name is Les. The only things different now is the lenses are all clear now instead of red and amber(I have all of the colored lenses also. They are also brand new) And it now has new wheels and tires. Again email or call with any Q's. The title is clear and in my hand.

Watch these videos of an NHRA racer's bodywork blowing off into a crowd
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Just a few months ago, fan safety at racetracks was a hot topic following the last-lap NASCAR Nationwide Series crash at Daytona that sent large pieces of racecars into the grandstands injuring 33 fans. Now, a freak incident at a National Hot Rod Association event resulted in a drag racer's bodywork flying into the crowd at the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals in Charlotte over the weekend. The carbon-fiber body of Robert Hight's Ford Mustang funny car blew off toward the end of a run when his engine exploded, but fortunately, the two fans evaluated after the incident were later released without serious injury.
As you can see in the image above, the body flew high into the air before landing on a walkway in front of the grandstands, a bit of happenstance that likely gave most fans enough time and space to move out of the way. Scroll down to watch a couple of videos showing what happened, including one from a fan's perspective that also reveals what appears to be part of the body's metal bracing landing dangerously close to the crowd.
Ford hybrids getting update to improve fuel economy
Tue, 16 Jul 2013Ford has announced that it is introducing "calibration updates designed to improve on-road fuel economy for owners of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid."
We can speculate that these changes are at least due in part to lawsuits over mileage claims of hybrid vehicles. The automaker is enhancing 2013 models starting in August by raising their electric cruising speed to 85 miles per hour from 62 mph, optimizing the use of active grille shutters and the climate control system, shortening the engine warm-up period by 50 percent and reducing electric fan speed to minimize the fan's energy consumption.
It bears mentioning that Ford is doing pretty well in the US electrified vehicle market this year. The company claims to have grown its share in the segment by 12 points to 16 percent while taking a high number of Toyota Prius trade-ins in the process. Conversely, Toyota has experienced a five-percent drop in new-Prius sales over the same period. Additionally, Ford states that it has increased its share of the US vehicle market by one percent this year, more than any full-line automaker.
Ford reserving 50th Anniversary Mustangs for service members
Tue, Dec 16 2014Think getting your hands on one of the 1,964 50th Anniversary Ford Mustangs is hard as a civilian? Imagine how tough it might be for the Mustang fanatics in our nation's military. Perhaps recognizing this fact, Ford Emerging Market Services and the Overseas Military Sales Corporation (the only Ford-authorized retailer on the military's bases) ran a raffle, with the winners receiving the opportunity to purchase one of the limited-edition muscle cars. Ford EMS and OMS received 300 entries to the raffle, although with only eight 50th Anniversary Stangs to hand out, we imagine there were quite a lot of disappointed soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines. "We are pleased to offer limited-edition anniversary Mustangs to members of our military through our Military Appreciation Program, and we are delighted at the response it's receiving," Doug Walczak, EMS' fleet sales manager, said. The first Mustang was delivered to Army Maj. Del Boyer, shown above. While Maj. Boyer took delivery in New York, the raffle was open to servicemembers both at home and abroad.
