True un-restored and uncut 1966 Ford Bronco Roadster, U13 vin code.  Built in October, 1965.  Bought from original owner's son in 1994 in Charlotte, NC.  75,103 original miles; original engine rebuilt in 1999 but only 1,000 miles since then.  Has been in storage since 2000, driven occasionally until 2006.  Pulled out of storage last month, taken to the mechanic for a complete check-up, and then detailed.


To the best of my knowledge, the Bronco has never been wrecked.  I've certainly never wrecked it and I was told when I bought it, that it had never even been in a fender bender.  The gas tank leaks when full.

New high-quality, custom-made seat covers (front buckets and rear bench) to match the original factory spec vinyl, including gray color (only color available on the '66 models) and texture, installed in 2000.  Not sure if the paint is original (it's not been painted since I've had it) but is in very good condition.  Small, slight bubble rust under paint in one place on front right quarter panel, near bumper.  Slight surface rust on original floor pans; slight surface rust on the original bumpers.  When I say "surface", I mean surface.

Just had all fluids changed, new tires (235/75R15 Goodyear radials), new battery, new brakes, rebuilt master cylinder, new right front brake cylinder, new front axle seals.  My mechanic could not find a new distributor cap or rotor button, so it "bucks" a little on take off.

Less than 5,000 Roadsters were produced by Ford.  How many are still around?  And how many are still around in this condition...uncut, unmolested, and un-restored?  My guess is less than five.

Features:
  • original number-matching 170cid straight 6 engine
  • original 1-barrel carburetor
  • original lock-out hubs (rebuilt 1995) on the 4-wheel drive front axle
  • original oil bath air filter
  • original vacuum windshield wipers
  • original hub caps, plus 4 extra rear caps (unique to '66--not sold on pickups or any other vehicles)
  • original straight-end bumpers (unique to '66 and '67 models)
  • original driver side mirror (unique to early Roadsters, not an after-market one)
  • original "pencil" dash pad, with no cracks (unique to '66 and '67 models)
  • original eyebrow grill (only found on early production '66s)
  • original FOMOCO washer fluid bag
  • original 3-on-the-tree 3.03 manual transmission
  • original long-throw 4-wheel drive transfer case control stick with round ball head (only found on early production '66s)
  • original rubber transfer case boot (unique to '66 models)
  • original rear bench seat, loved by my kids when they were little
  • original black arm rests on rear bench seat (unique to '66 models)
  • original 15-inch wheels, including the spare
  • original rear tail light lenses (no "clear" reverse section; unique to '66 models)
  • original FOMOCO tail hitch
  • original fold-down windshield (hinged to fold flat on top of the hood, with a pin hitch to hold it in place)
  • original skid plate protecting the transfer case
The successful bidder must make a $250 deposit via PayPal within 48 hours of the close of the auction.  Full payment for the vehicle must be made within seven days of the close of the auction.  The vehicle will not be released until payment is received via bank transfer or other means acceptable to the owner.  Sale does not include shipping.  Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements and costs.

I have tried to provide an honest description of this Bronco.  I encourage anyone interested in bidding to view the Bronco in person, it is located in Pine Mountain, GA.  If you have any questions, please let me know prior to bidding.

This Bronco is sold as-is, where-is, with no warranty implied or given.


On Jan-28-13 at 17:47:51 PST, seller added the following information:

To answer a question I received...this Bronco came from the factory without "hard" doors and top.  It came with canvas doors (mounted on metal rod frames) and canvas top.  There are no door hinges, just holes to receive the metal rod frames at the bottom.  The current door frames are original; the canvas doors and canvas top are replacements the original owner did in the 1980's.


I've posted a picture from a few years ago showing the Bronco with the doors off and the top rolled up in the back and on the sided.  I have a picture somewhere of the top completely off but cannot find it right now; if I find it, I'll post it.

Ford unveils all-new 2016 F-650 and F-750 at NTEA

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

Medium-duty work trucks might not be the most exciting vehicles, but they perform necessary jobs everyday. Ford is in the process of a complete refresh of its entire commercial vehicle lineup over the next 18 months, and it is debuting the all-new versions of its F-650 and F-750 trucks at the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, IN.
"The all-new F-650/F-750 allow us to leverage our strengths and sales leadership in Classes 1 to 5 to create a better F-650/F-750 that's designed, engineered and built by Ford in the USA," said Ford spokesperson Mike Levine to Autoblog via email.
Huge amounts of torque is vital for trucks like these, and both models are offered with some of Fords biggest engines. Buyers can opt for either the 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel with TorqShift 6-speed automatic with available power takeoff or a gasoline-fueled 6.8-liter V10 with a 6-speed automatic. The V10 can also be ordered from the factory to be fueled by compressed natural gas or liquid propane gas.

Chrysler called out over lackluster Ram Runner by racer who helped develop it

Fri, 11 Apr 2014

Fans of off-roading and desert blasting might recall that Chrysler offers an aftermarket conversion that can turn a Ram 1500 into a road-legal desert racer, called the Ram Runner. The kit, sold through Mopar, includes some significant suspension upgrades, body tweaks and a brawnier cat-back exhaust for the truck's 5.7-liter V8.
Considering all of this, comparisons with the almighty Ford F-150 SVT Raptor are common. Among the off-road community, that makes these two a sort of Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang for people that prefer driving on dirt. In the Race-Dezert forum, the discussion as to which truck was better was proceeding as normal - Ram fans said their piece and Ford fans said theirs. Then, a man named Kent Kroeker offered up his two cents.
See, Kroeker is a Baja racer, and the man that helped develop the Ram Runner. Despite his association with the truck, though, he had some less than kind words for Chrysler and the Ram Runner.
