This gem arrived to us last summer from Northern California where it had spent its entire life! We purchased it from the 3rd owner who had owned it for the past 4 years.  He had actually first seen it in a neighboring town about 7 years ago and had spoken to the owner who turned out to be the original owner.  About a year later a friend of his showed up in it and told him he had just purchased it from the original owner. He told his friend he was in love with it and if he would sell it to him to let him know. Sure enough, a couple of years later his friend delivered the Bronco to him and for the past 4 years he and his wife had enjoyed it tremendously.  They decided it was time to downsize and were ready to let this original, sweetheart of a Bronco go....sad for them, but extremely lucky for the next owner....maybe you??  The previous owner explained to me that the Bronco was completely rust free and actually had about 90% of its original paint.  It was somewhat hard to believe because it looked so good in the pictures he had sent me but he was absolutely correct!!! When the Bronco arrived after its long journey cross country to us here in the Atlanta, GA area my partner and I just looked at each other and smiled.  It is so rare to find any classic car with so much originality and amazing patina let alone a 1968 Ford Bronco.  Lets face it, most of the Early Ford Broncos were used and abused. Most eventually received lift kits, fender flares, diamond plated panels and all kinds of modifications.  To see one with this much originality and in this nice of condition was truly refreshing!  Well, now the question was whether we should leave it completely like it was, or,  give it the cosmetic restoration it deserved so that it would be truly appreciated and enjoyed the way it was originally meant to be.  My partner drove it quite a bit when it first arrived and said it drove as good as it looked. He was actually contemplating keeping it for himself for a while.  We put it in the corner of the warehouse while we stayed busy with all of our other vehicles and when Fall hit we decided that this '68 deserved a high quality cosmetic restoration.  We dropped it off and waited, and waited, and waited. If you have ever dealt with restoration guys who take pride in their work you know that it does not make sense to rush them.  Our guy had apparently fallen in love with this Bronco and proceeded to completely disassemble it telling us how amazed he was that he did not find any rust any where.  This got him excited and he treated it like his baby, massaging the body panels stripping it to bare metal before priming, sanding, and laying down a show quality paint job.  Needless to say all of this takes time and it was difficult to stay patient but I think you will agree that it was worth the wait!!!

As you will see in the pictures the body and paint are absolutely stunning. We repainted it in its original Medium Turquoise color using a high quality Basecoat/Clearcoat finish. Body panel fit is fantastic thanks to the fact that it has its original body panels and it lived such a rust free and accident free life. Chrome trim, bumpers, emblems all look fantastic and were either replaced or polished.  Doors open and close very nicely. The only real modification to the body was the addition of hood pins that the original owner had added many years ago. We felt they were period correct and left them in tact.  Windows roll up and down nicely and we put a brand new windshield in due to some rock chips. Weatherstripping was all replaced as well. As you will see in the pictures we had the inside of the tub painted as well.  About a month after it was painted we had the paint wet sanded and buffed out.  This Uncut '68 is ready to be driven to the local shows and cruise-ins and there is plenty of room for the trophies she will win if that is something you enjoy. To be safe, I will not say it is flawless but, quite honestly I have not noticed any paint chips or flaws since it was finished. It is not a trailer queen, although the condition might suggest otherwise.  We are confident the next owner is going to be absolutely thrilled when this Turquoise Gem arrives to their driveway. Here is a walk around tour of the body:

I believe the way to enjoy these Classic Broncos is with the top off but when necessary it is nice to know that this '68 also comes with a complete soft top with dark tinted windows that is in excellent condition. You can zip out the windows and get protection from the sun when needed or enjoy it without the top completely. Here are a few pics with the soft top on.

Complimenting the beautiful Medium Turquoise exterior is an extremely nice off white interior.  The front seats are original style seats and the rear seat is a fold and tumble style seat and looks great. The upholstery looks great with no wear and the seats are very comfortable.  Seat belts front and rear. We put a brand new carpet kit on the bed of the trunk after it was painted.  Brand new set of Toms Bronco floor mats. As you can see in the pics below the tub area was all painted to match and looks incredible. The 3-speed manual was moved to the floor many years ago with a great Mickey Thompson Shifter. The dash looks great and all gauges and lights are working correctly.  Original steering wheel is in amazing condition. An older Am/fm Cassette was installed many years ago neatly and still works well with speakers mounted in the rear of the bed. Visors, door panels, arm rests etc. all look great.  The Roll Bar is nicely padded with neoprene and has a few grab handles. As you will see the original glove box door has the Factory original data tag which verifies the original color and configuration this Bronco came with from the factory...pretty much exactly as you see it today. You will also see quite a few service history notes that were attached to the glovebox by the original owner back in the day.  Overall the interior is in fantastic condition and is equally ready for the shows or just ready for you and the family to climb in and enjoy!! Have a look:

This awesome '68 has the original 289 V8 under the hood that was completely gone through and rebuilt approximately 10 years ago according to the gentleman we bought the Bronco from. The original owner had this done but had lost all of his records and receipts unfortunately. It is estimated that there are under 30k miles on it since it was rebuilt and I can tell you that it drives beautifully!!  At the time the motor was rebuilt he also added a nice set of headers that breathe out the dual exhaust.  Steering is a breeze and you will think it is power steering but it is manual.  This Bronco tracks straight and handles really well with none of the play and floats that you get so often in the lifted trucks. Braking is also very easy and again seems much less effortless then you would expect for manual brakes.  This is an EASY Bronco to drive and is ready for your driving enjoyment!! As you will see the engine bay is extremely original and nicely detailed. You will not find any of the typical rust issues under the hood of this California Classic!  The ride is very smooth also with newer suspension components and newer shocks and in part thanks to the newer Michelin Radials that are mounted on an old school set of Slotted Mag Wheels.  This is a great period correct look.  Of course the 4 wheel drive engages properly and works well if needed but this Bronco has not seen any real off road usage from the looks of it.  The undercarriage is representative of the overall condition of this awesome original.  When we got it we could still see the original red oxide primer throughout the undercarriage so we detailed it underneath to bring back the original factory look. Floorpans are in amazing condition and again, no signs of rust or damage anywhere underneath this classic.  I also did a short video below so you can hear this Bronco start up and running.  As I mentioned this Bronco is ready to cruise!!! We have put some miles on it while we have had it and it has been a blast! Take a look:

Win a car while supporting a charity this holiday season

Thu, Dec 9 2021

Autoblog may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability are subject to change. No donation or payment necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes. See official rules on Omaze.  The leaves have fallen, there is a crispness to the air and there have already been multiple forecasts of snow, which can only mean one thing: We're coming up on Christmas. While you've been busy thinking about what kind of gifts you're going to give your loved ones, we here at Autoblog have been deciding which dream car we'd like to see in our driveway on Christmas morning. A car for Christmas does seem a bit extreme and expensive, but thanks to these Omaze sweepstakes, it doesn't have to break the bank. Here are the current sweepstakes we'd like to win this holiday season. Win a DeLorean DMC-12 - Enter at Omaze James Riswick, West Coast Editor: Let me be clear, the DeLorean is a pretty terrible car. Its speedometer doesn't even go up to the fabled 88 mph. Seriously, look at the pictures: tops out at 85. Also, who services a DeLorean? And how much would it cost to maintain one? $AlloftheMoney or just $MostoftheMoney? So owning it could be a total headache, but at least by winning one through Omaze, you'd be relieved of the financial burden of buying one in the first place. You'd also get the chance to own one of the most iconic cars of all time, one that transcends car enthusiasm and is instantly recognizable by everyone as the "Back to the Future" car. Plus, "everyone" doesn't know that the DeLorean was actually a pretty terrible car. So, I already own James Bond's car from 1995, why not Doc Brown's from 1985? Win a 2021 Bentley Bentayga V8 - Enter at Omaze Eddie Sabatini, Production Manager: Why am I choosing a +$200K Bentley SUV? Because even if I could afford one I'd never be able to wrap my head around spending money on one. So why not try to win one by donating what I can afford to a good cause? I first saw the Bentley Bentayga up close and personal at the Frankfurt Motor Show (I forget which year but I'll never forget this SUV). And although it looks like the Bentayga Omaze is offering up doesn't have the opulent tailgate setup I fell in love with when I saw it in Frankfurt, I'd still enter to win. Win a 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda - Enter at Omaze Byron Hurd, Editor: Few automotive marketing efforts stick out in my head more than the Mercedes-Benz holiday spots and magazine placements.

Latest Forza Horizon 3 car pack features a Skyline and a fast Swedish wagon

Tue, Jan 3 2017

The steady stream of Forza Horizon 3 car packs shows no signs of slowing down, and the latest Rockstar Energy Drink pack includes enthusiast favorites such as the R31 Skyline and the Volvo V60 Polestar. The car pack also features a couple of sporty two-doors and some off-road oriented machines. Luxury-minded players will be pleased to see both the Bentley Bentayga and BMW i8 make an appearance. People more concerned with ultimate performance will have a different pair to consider. Players will want to check out the Ford trophy truck for busting dunes, and the Radical RXC Turbo for race-car levels of pavement performance. Finally, yet another classic Aussie muscle car appears in the pack: the 1972 Ford Falcon XA GT-HO. For those interested in the new rides, this car pack is included in the Forza Horizon 3 Car Pass, or can be purchased on its own. If only one or two vehicles are must-haves, it's also possible to purchase the cars individually.

Ford unveils next-gen S-Max in Europe

Tue, 16 Sep 2014

Let's get this unfortunate though important tidbit out of the way right off the bat: The Ford S-Max isn't sold in the United States, and it's not coming here, at least not anytime soon. And so it's with our European friends in mind that we share this information about the next-gen S-Max (previewed about a year ago in concept form) that is set to debut all across Europe next year and will be shown off at the upcoming Paris Motor Show. Now, moving on...
As with the first-gen S-Max, the new model will boast seating for seven passengers, along with a decent amount of storage space, all packed into a relatively reasonably sized package. Powering the front wheels (or optionally all four) will be the buyer's choice of EcoBoost gasoline-turbocharged or turbo-diesel four-cylinder engines along with automatic and manual transmission options. Included in the mix is a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost with 160 horsepower, though the 240-horse 2.0 is likely to be seen as the headliner.
There are all kinds of new technologies on offer, ranging from Adaptive Steering to Dynamic LED Headlamps with Glare-Free Highbeams, and it's all housed inside new, more sleekly designed bodywork riding atop a chassis with new suspension architecture designed to make the S-Max a people-hauler that's still fun to drive. For all the details, we suggest you scroll down below to read through Ford's official press release.
