1966 Ford Bronco Half-cab: Beautifully Restored on 2040-cars
Carlsbad, California, United States
|
FIRST YEAR of the V8 Bronco. Removable half-cab makes it even more rare. Completely uncut, unaltered original '66 Bronco repainted with original Caribbean Turquoise color in EXCELLENT CONDITION. Restored to its original condition, the only exception being a rebuilt bored-out 302 c.i. V8 block plus engine upgrades vs. the original 289 c.i. V8 completed about 500 miles ago.
Clean title, no wrecks, no rust, 4 WD. Original three speed on the floor. New suspension, new brakes, new shocks, new tires (including spare). The engine has an Edelbrock intake manifold with a four-barrel carburetor, new exhaust headers, and new exhaust system and mufflers. The valve covers are old-school Mickey Thompson. New power steering, coil, and fuel pump as well. Full restoration completed by the masters at Beach City Broncos with excellent paint. Rear rumble seat with all three seats reupholstered, heavy duty roll bar repainted black, bikini top, and trickle charger. This is a great value for the first year early Bronco in excellent condition. Exterior in near perfect condition with absolutely no dings, dents, or scratches. Half-cab top also repainted white without a scratch. A true classic collector's vehicle that will continue to increase in value. Full restoration began in 2009 and was just completed with the following work performed: -Original turquoise exterior color (code 12876) -Suspension, 6 Ranchero shocks, brakes, tires -Rebuilt bored-out 302 Ford V8 engine, hoses, belts, etc. -4 barrel carburator, headers, exhaust system -Power steering -Ignition coil -Electric fuel pump -Fuel sending unit/gas tank sensor on main tank -Voltage regulator -Fuel gauge -Window gaskets, including vent window and all window seals -Dash gauge cluster -Rubber hood bumpers -Signal switch -Gaskets for around doors, above windshield, below top in rear, rear glass gasket -Window regulators -Ignition switch -Exhaust pipe, muffler, tail pipe -Clutch -Both gas tanks -Water pump -Reupholstered fabric insert front and rear seat This is a nearly flawless restoration with the following exceptions: -Independent windshield wipers work sporadically -AM radio works well but tuner dial doesn't move needle These are both items I refuse to replace with new parts. I have gone through much time and expense finding refurbished hardware for the entire restoration and I'm still on the hunt for these two items. **Odometer is in working condition but not sure if 88,000 mileage is accurate, as the Bronco is nearly 50 yrs old. Due to age and smog exemption, no odometer readings available through Carfax, Autocheck, etc. I have no reason to believe this isn't the accurate mileage but simply can not guarantee it (just with any other classic that isn't original owner).** Sale comes with approx. $30,000 in documented receipts (parts and PROFESSIONAL labor) organized in 3-ring binder. This doesn't include the hours I have put into the restoration or the original sales price of the Bronco. For questions please email. I am more than happy to take additional pictures of any square inch requested. Serious inquiries only please. |

Autocar pits Formula Ford against Germany's finest
Wed, 25 Sep 2013Ford has quite the racing pedigree, but usually, its racers are relegated to the track. Not the new Formula Ford EcoBoost, though. It's a turbocharged, open-wheeled racer complete with a 200-horsepower, 1.0-liter, three-cylinder engine... and it's legal on the roads of the UK.
That's stressed in this video from Autocar, with the mag going so far as to show the car's tax disc and license plates. Being a road-legal offering, it's tempting to see just how well an open-wheeler that delivers racecar-like performance while also netting over 100 miles per gallon (assume this is on the British cycle, for obvious reasons) stacks up against modern performance cars.
Autocar lined up the Formula Ford against an Audi R8 V10, a BMW M6 Gran Coupe and a Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG in a number of situations to see which would come out on top. Take a look below for the full video.
Ford recalling nearly 24,000 Focus EV and C-Max models over door chime
Fri, 04 Oct 2013Ford will be voluntarily recalling 23,830 Focus Electric and C-Max Hybrid and Energi models equipped with push-button ignition, according to The Detroit News. Why? Because the cars don't make a noise when the driver's door is open, and are therefore in violation of federal regulations. It's not as silly as Honda's badging recall that isn't a recall, but it's close.
Actually, that's not exactly fair. The chime is supposed to come on when the driver's door is open, as it reminds drivers not to leave their cars on or leave key fobs in the car, an easy thing to forget when the cars in question make virtually no noise at idle and do not require keys in ignitions.
The recall, which Ford is conducting voluntarily, covers 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric hatchbacks and 2013 C-Max Hybrid and Energi models. The overwhelming majority, around 22,900 units, were sold in the US, while the remaining 900 units are in Canada. How many of each model are covered in the recall is not immediately clear.
Fewest vehicles ever found eligible for Most American survey
Mon, 30 Jun 2014Once again, the most American car on the market is from an American brand. The Ford F-150 retained its number one spot in Cars.com's annual survey of the most American vehicles, trumping the Toyota Camry, which remains at number two.
Ford taking the top spot is small consolation, though, as the Detroit Three aren't too well represented here. General Motors scored a win at number seven, with the Chevrolet Corvette, while Chrysler squeaked in at number ten, with the Dodge Viper. Outside of those three vehicles, Toyota and Honda dominate the top ten.
What's most remarkable, though, is that there were so few cars available for this year's list.
