1986 Ford Bronco Ii Xlt Sport Utility 4x4 Diamond In The Not-too-rough on 2040-cars
Middletown, California, United States
|
Recently rescued from a few years of my family's outdoor under-the-pines storage here in the mountains of Northern California. Looking for a good home for this otherwise remarkably preserved Bronco II, showing almost no wear and tear. I don't want to see it spend another winter outside here... It is "NON-OPed" so there are no DMV fees here in California against it. It's the 2.9 L V6, "loaded" with an automatic transmission, air-conditioning, power brakes, power steering, power windows, power door locks, tilt wheel, cruise control and AM/FM cassette. This vehicle's been sitting and it will need some work before it can return to its former glory. Recent outdoor storage in a very moist microclimate has left it with the following challenges: Engine freeze plugs are frozen or rusted out, so the engine does not hold coolant but it starts right up and sounds fine and will run plenty long enough before it warms up to drive up onto a car hauler or trailer. The service brakes need the master cylinder & booster replaced but the parking brake works well enough for careful yard driving. In the very short distances that I have driven the truck, I have never exceeded 10 or 15 miles an hour, but there were no bad noises, the transmission operated normally, steering felt fine, etc. The undercarriage has minor surface rust, but everything is very solid. The only other things I have noticed is that there is a star chip in the windshield, unfortunately right in the driver's line of sight and one little "V6" emblem is missing from the right front fender. On the plus side, before this vehicle's recent poor storage it was mechanic owned and pampered. The body is remarkably straight. After vigorous massaging I found that the original paint still shines although it does have some damage to the paint and paint loss on the roof. The headliner is perfect and the rest of the very bright red '80's-style interior shows remarkably well with minor color fading to the tops of the door panels, but no noticeable wear anywhere. The interior is a bit dirty here and there and smells a bit musty but looks very good. I have never gotten around to cleaning it or airing it out at all. This vehicle is sold as is, where is. I have brought it to the fleet repair garage where I work. Please call the shop manager, Peter, at (707) 987-0254 Extn.22 with any questions or to arrange to see this vehicle or if you need more pictures. I can answer emails also. Transporting the vehicle will be entirely the buyers responsibility, but we are available to officiate at its loading. A non-refundable $500 Pay-pal deposit is required of the winning bidder. Balance due in bank wire transfer, pay-pal or cash in person.

2015 Ford Edge holds line on pricing, starts at $28,100*
Tue, 04 Nov 2014The Ford Edge gets an updated platform, bolder styling and a standard 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost engine pumping out 245 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque for the 2015 model year. You might expect that all those new features would result in a big price bump, but you'd be wrong. Ford is keeping costs identical to the 2014 model with a starting MSRP of $28,100 (*plus an $895 destination charge), according to Edmunds. Ford spokesperson William Mattiace confirmed the numbers to Autoblog.
That's a pretty good deal, but the real ticket here might be the model's Sport trim. Buyers get a 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 EcoBoost engine with over 300 horsepower and standard adaptive steering for $28,600 plus destination. That's just $500 more than the base model.
Pricing for the Titanium trim has not yet been announced, but it'll be a short wait to find out. Mattiace tells Autoblog that full pricing and the configuration for the model will launch on November 5. He has also confirmed that the 2015 Edge will begin hitting dealers in the first quarter of 2015.
2015 Ford F-150 spied in the rain
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Standing as quite a contrast from the spy shots of the 2015 Ford Mustang we saw earlier today, our spies also sent along these pictures of the next-generation F-150 pickup out testing in its (heavily camouflaged) full prototype body. Much of the new truck's design is hidden under the bulky coveralls, but we expect a lot of its new lines to be inspired by the Atlas concept that debuted at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
Perhaps the biggest unknown surrounding the new F-150 is what, exactly, its body will be made of. Earlier reports have suggested that lightweight aluminum materials may be used throughout, offering a serious reduction in weight versus previous models. But Ford engineers will need to be careful, though, as they need to keep a tight rein on costs while preserving class-competitive (if not class-leading) towing and payload capacity.
On the powertrain front, the new F-150 will undoubtedly carry on with EcoBoost engines, and we'd bet on a normally aspirated V8 as well. A diesel option hasn't been confirmed, but we wouldn't be surprised to see one some time in the truck's lifecycle. Mum's the word on when the production F-150 will be revealed, but our best guess is that we'll see it at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.
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.
