1969 Ford Bronco on 2040-cars
El Dorado, Arkansas, United States
|
Up for auction is a 1969 Early Ford Bronco. This bronco has a 302, manual steering, and manual brakes. The motor will need work. It has low compression on one of the cylinders so it has a miss. It does run and drive but doesn't have much power due to the miss. This bronco has all new brakes, bearings, and seals all around. Brakes work great considering they are drum brakes. 4-wheel drive works great. The front floor pans need to be replaced and there is some damage on the grill and tailgate but overall the body on this bronco is very, very solid. There is rust in the front lip on the hood. The rear floors are excellent (only paint peeling and very minor surface rust-no rot). The rockers, door posts, inner fenders, front fenders, rear fenders and quarter panel seam are all very solid. The frame is solid. It has a 23 gallon metal main tank and the plastic aux tank. The tires are BFGoodrich All-Terrains with plenty of tread but there is some cracking in the sidewalls. They have held air for the past few years so no leaks. The interior has the original bench seat (recovered I'm sure) and the original bulkhead that is in excellent shape. With a little work, this bronco will be outstanding!!! Excellent project to start with!!! You should be able to see everything in the pictures but if there is something else you would like to see, just ask and I'll get the picture to you quickly. ****THE FRONT BUMPER AND THE BATTERY ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS AUCTION!!!**** Please ask any and all questions before bidding. Thanks for looking and good luck!!!

Detroit Three autoworkers could get huge bonuses
Mon, 06 Jan 2014For a long time, being a line worker for one of the Detroit Three has meant living with an uncertain future. With the health of American automakers on the rise, though, things are also starting to look up for the men and women building the cars. The latest sign that things aren't bad? Big profit-sharing checks.
According to The Detroit News, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler could end up paying over $800 million to 130,000 workers as part of a profit-sharing plan. According to The News, the economic impact of these profits in Michigan alone could exceed $400 million, besting the NFL's Super Bowl, MLB's All-Star Game and the NHL's Winter Classic for their economic impact.
This is the third straight year the Detroit Three have issued profit-sharing checks to UAW employees, and for many workers, the checks are as close as they'll get to a raise, due to the most recent contract between the union and the manufacturers. On average, employees at GM and Ford receive $1 for every $1 million in North American (not just the US) pre-tax profits. Chrysler, meanwhile, gets a similar deal, although the Auburn Hills-based company calculates profit sharing using 85 percent of the brand's global profits.
Ford acquires Livio to bolster connectivity biz
Thu, 26 Sep 2013Ford Motor Company has announced the acquisition of Livio, a Ferndale, MI-based software development company best known for aftermarket in-car connectivity devices, but also as a supplier of technology for proprietary systems for automakers. Livio, co-founded by Sigal and Massimo Baldini, will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Ford Global Technologies.
"With the additional expertise Livio provides us, Ford intends to continue to lead the next generation of in-car connectivity with technology advancements that give consumers more options to access their devices on the go," said Paul Mascarenas, chief technical officer and vice president, Ford Research and Innovation, in a statement.
Ford is clearly trying to beef up its in-house tech capability around telematics and device connectivity. While the Blue Oval has been a leader in these areas with SYNC and MyFord Touch in terms of getting the systems into as many cars as possible, the execution of the applications have been criticized for glitches.
Watch these Australian Ford and Holden muscle cars duke it out
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Australia's Motoring has put together a little video on two of the great performance vehicles available down under - the Holden VF Commodore HSV GTS and the Ford Falcon FPV GT R-Spec. And while both FPV and the Falcon might be on their way out, there's still plenty of time for a little head-to-head comparison between the two.
The cars aren't all that well evenly matched, though. The Ford boasts a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8, which the Aussies measure out at 449 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. The HSV, though, with its Corvette-derived, 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 is just too powerful - 576 hp and 545 lb-ft of torque.
Predictably, it doesn't end too well for the Ford. As the guys from Motoring point out, the new VF Commodore is just too new and too good, with its extra power and its adaptive dampers (GM's excellent MagnaRide). Interestingly, Motoring did point out that the Holden's electric steering is better than the Ford's hydraulic steering, which is a lot like a Porsche purist saying they prefer water-cooled engines to air cooled.
