I will do my best to provide enough large images, a video of it running and an honest description to help you decide if this Bronco belongs in your stable. Sit back and enjoy!! This Yellow beauty is a Bronco that is a bit more familiar to me then some of the other Early Bronco Classics we have had had in our inventory. The reason is that this is the 2nd time we have owned this awesome classic. We originally acquired this gem a little over 2 years ago from a guy who had recently moved to Oregon after living in California. He had purchased this Bronco about 6 years prior to that from the gentleman in California who had the high end restoration done. The story was that this Bronco had lived its entire live in Southern California. The original DSO code is 71 which was Los Angeles and when it arrived to us it was obvious this Bronco had lived a great, rust free life. This was actually only the 2nd Early Bronco Classic we had owned and it sold quickly to a great guy in North Carolina who was in the Military and was looking for something to enjoy with his wife and kids on sunny days. He did so for 2 years but then found out he was being deployed to Africa for at least a year. He called me and the following day I wired him payment and made arrangements to bring this beauty back to the Atlanta, GA area. She looked just like she did 2 years prior....gorgeous!! This baby is going to absolutely thrill the next owner and it truly drives and handles as good as it looks! Maybe that lucky person will be you?? As you will see in the pictures below the body is in amazing condition. Keep in mind the restoration was done about 9 years ago but as you will se it has held up beautifully with little sign of age. When it was restored the color was changed from a Ginger color to the eye-catching Yellow. This Bronco just looks right...perfect for the beach, summer cruises, mountain drives, local car shows and cruise-ins or trip with the family. I do not see any signs of rust repair and the body appears to wear all of its original sheet metal. Body panels are extremely straight and line up beautifully. Weatherstripping was all replaced at time of restoration. White fiberglass fender flares accent the yellow body nicely. Paint quality is awesome overall and the only real flaws on the body are the same ones it had 2 years ago which are a few minor chips that have been touched up. Windows roll up and down nicely. There are 2 small rock chips in the windshield that were there 2 years ago and are not a big deal. 4-point roll bar looks great. This was an original Ranger edition which included additional chrome trim around the windows, hard top, and grill area. Chrome trim, emblems and bumpers look great with just minor wear to the rear bumper chrome. Overall, as you will see, this Bronco is ready for the shows where it will win plenty of trophies if that is what you enjoy, or just drive and enjoy! Here is a walk around tour of the body: These Broncos are a blast to enjoy with the Hard top removed and driven as a convertible. We always remove the hard tops and drive and enjoy them with a Bikini top as often as possible. This Bronco does look great with the hard top on if needed as you will see in the pics below. The hard top is in overall very good condition however it must have had some lights installed many years ago as there were some holes on the top which were repaired but the top was never fully refinished so if you want it to look as good as the rest of the Bronco it would need to be finished and repainted. The glass and chrome trim are in great shape. If you do not think you will use the hard top we would be willing to include a new White soft top instead. This will be up to the buyer. We also will be including the black Bikini top that you see pictured as well. Complimenting the beautiful yellow exterior is a great looking off-white stock interior. Seat covers are in fantastic condition and very comfortable. Door panels both front and rear look great and stereo speakers were professionally installed throughout. The floor of this Bronco has a great vinyl mat that was installed years ago which makes it really easy to clean out after a day at the beach. dash pad looks great and original steering wheel has a nice leather wrap on it. All of the gauges and lights are functioning correctly. When we sold this Bronco 2 years ago the speedometer was jumping around quite a bit. The gentleman who bought it decided to replace the speedometer with a rebuilt original from Toms Broncos and it was set at zero miles when he got it. You will see it reads a little over 700 miles which is close to the total miles he put on it over the 2 years he owned it. He wrote me a otter that will be include mentioning this. As you will see this Bronco also has an aftermarket Air Conditioning system that works great and blows nice and cold for those of you in hotter climates. Seat belts for both front and rear passengers. Great upgraded stereo neatly installed with CD player. Original glove box door has the Trim Tag with Vin# and original trim codes. As you will see the interior looks fantastic and is show ready as well. Have a look: This Bronco truly runs and drives as good as it looks. When we first purchased it a little over 2 years ago we were told that the original 302 V8 had been rebuilt and had about 11,000 miles on it at that time. The gentleman we sold it to put about 1000 more miles on it so the motor is still extremely strong and fresh. She starts up easily and will run at any speed with no overheating issues. This Bronco is an absolute joy to drive and we recently ran it up and down the highway for about 15 miles to stretch her legs and she is definitely ready for the spring and summer fun with her new owner. The C-4 Automatic transmission shifts smoothly. We felt a slight vibration when it first arrived which we discovered was due to slightly worn U-joints which we immediately replaced and solved the vibration. Handling is a breeze thanks to the power steering and this Bronco tracks straight. Of course it is still a 38 year old 4WD lifted Bronco but I would put my 19 year old daughter behind the wheel with no worries. She stops great too thanks to the Power front disc brakes. Suspension was all gone through years ago and this Bronco handles the road beautifully. It has a 3.5 inch suspension lift that was done right! The front tires were showing wear when it arrived to us so we had a brand new set of expensive BFG All Terrain TA tires installed. Of course the 4WD engages and functions properly. Dana 44 Front transfer case and 9" rear. The engine bay has been nicely detailed so you can pop the hood proudly at any event. Both front and rear fuel tanks work correctly. The undercarriage looks as good as the rest of the truck and it is rust free and rock solid. Floorpans look fantastic with no patches or rust issues. Be sure to watch the video below to hear this Bronco start up and running. Nice tone from the Magna Flow exhaust! Turn the key and go in this Classic Bronco!!! HERE IS A SHORT VIDEO SO YOU CAN HEAR THIS SWEET BRONCO START UP AND RUNNING (CLICK THE ARROW TO START):
Hopefully you can see that this '71 Bronco has been professionally restored to a very high level but is also one that was built to be driven and enjoyed. We are confident that the next owner is going to be absolutely thrilled with this Bronco and it is definitely going to be a smart investment as the Early Broncos are on the radars of all the serious car collector enthusiasts.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, BMW i8, Ford F-150 win 2015 Green Car Awards in DC [w/video]
Tue, Jan 27 2015There were three shiny trophies handed out at the Washington Auto Show last week by Green Car Journal, and they went to three different examples of what "green" means in the automotive industry today. The Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel won the award for the 2015 Green SUV of the Year, the BMW i8 was named the 2015 Luxury Green Car of the Year and the Ford F-150 took the 2015 Green Car Technology Award honor. There is a case to be made that the aluminum body of the new Ford truck will make a bigger impact in the overall fuel usage in the US than almost any other vehicle, given the numbers of F-150s that Ford sells each year. The B20 biodiesel-capable Jeep gets up to 30 miles per gallon on the highway. And the i8 puts all sorts of new, fuel-saving technologies into an attractive package. Looking over the winners, and the list of finalists you can see in our photo gallery, and you can see that the definition of green is expanding every year. You can watch Green Car Journal editor Ron Cogan hand out the 2015 awards in the video below and we'll for sure be paying attention to what wins next year. 2015 Luxury Green Car of the Year, Green SUV of the Year and Green Car Technology Winners Announced WASHINGTON, Jan. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal has named the Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel its 2015 Green SUV of the Year™ and the BMW i8 its 2015 Luxury Green Car of the Year™, with the aluminum-bodied Ford F-150 earning the magazine's 2015 Green Car Technology Award™. Winners were determined by a jury of Green Car Journal editors and automotive experts. The prestigious awards were announced in Washington, D.C. today at a Green Car Awards™ press conference held during the Washington Auto Show's Public Policy Day at the Washington Convention Center. "These are truly commendable vehicles representing the 'best-of-the-best' in so many ways," said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of the Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com. "The auto industry's very early focus on small cars and efficiency-for-environment tradeoffs has evolved to now include a more dynamic field of 'greener' models in all vehicle classes. Those wanting greater efficiency or better environmental performance are no longer constrained by limited choices or vehicle types that fall outside their top purchase preferences.
Ford tumbles to second worst in Consumer Reports reliability survey, list dominated by Japanese [w/video]
Mon, 29 Oct 2012It's no secret that MyFord Touch has had its share of problems since being introduced, but the most recent reliability survey from Consumer Reports shows just how much this infotainment system has affected Ford. Just two years ago, the automaker was in the top 10 for the institute's reliability rankings, but since then, it has tumbled to the second-lowest rung just above dead-last Jaguar. In addition to MyFord Touch, CR also attributes a handful of new products that have had issues right out of the gate.
Compiled from 1.2 million subscriber surveys, this year's auto reliability survey heavily favors Japanese automakers, with eight of the 10 spots hailing from Japan. Toyota brands grabbed the top three spots (Scion, Toyota and Lexus - in that order) with Mazda, Subaru, Honda and Acura filling the next four spots. The only non-Asian automaker cracking the top 10 was Audi at number eight.
Audi climbed a total of 18 spots from last year, and Cadillac and GMC round out this year's top gainers breaking into the top 15. Helping Cadillac's upward movement, the CTS Coupe was named the most reliable domestic car. Lincoln, Volvo and Chrysler join Ford on this year's biggest loser list.
Xcar shows how to drive the Ford Model T
Wed, Jan 21 2015A couple of weeks ago Xcar posted a teaser review of the Ford Model T, a look at what the British duo would have been doing if they'd been doing their thing for 100 years. Now we have their complete, 12-minute take on the what might be, as they say, "arguably the most important car of the 20th century." Thankfully, instead of just a review, Xcar spends about half the time giving us a tour of history, from Ford's early days working for the Edison Illuminating Company to his racing days and founding of several car companies that either died or became other car companies after he left, like Cadillac. They also line up the pieces and the sales realities that led to Ford implementing – not creating, mind you – assembly-line production of the Tin Lizzie. And then they get into how crazy it is to drive, like how a driver needs two of the three pedals, the handbrake lever and a steering column stalk to get into high gear. Enjoy the video above on a 100-year-old car that is "unbelievably comfortable," "mildly terrifying" and ready to do just about anything.
