1971 Ford Bronco on 2040-cars
Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, United States
1971 Ford Bronco (Manufactured December 1970). This Bronco is uncut and for the most part
original. The Title is Clear. I purchased this Bronco on eBay in 2017 from a seller in Chambersburg PA and the
truck now resides outside of Philadelphia, PA. The Bronco had a 1999 expired PA Inspection sticker on it when I
got it and the seller said it had been sitting in a barn (or garage) for 17 years. All the metal on this Bronco
was original when I got it so it was indoors for a while or there would have been much more rust.
The engine starts easily and runs well, The internal engine is original to the best of my knowledge so
there is the usual amount of engine wear you would expect on a 100K 50 year old Ford 302 V8 engine.
· Body work, the driver, passenger ,and rear bed floor pans have been replaced. There are new door jambs,
and the passenger rocker panel is new. I replaced the front grill as it was too pitted to easily restore. The
driver rocker panel is good and strong but there is some rust in the lower front corner.
· Engine work, new radiator and hoses, new carburetor, new gaskets on intake manifold, valve covers, exhaust
headers, new petronix electronic distributor, new battery (Now 2 years old), new voltage regulator, new fuel pump,
new alternator, wires, plugs (I am probably missing a few other small parts replaced)
· The brakes (Factory Manual) work as good as they probably did when it left the factory. The master
cylinder is new, the brake lines where necessary (about 50%) have been replaced and all four drum brakes have ALL
new components.
· The drive train works great, the transmission, transfer box and front end all work fine, and I have had no
need to replace anything. The drive shaft to the rear has new CV Joints and the 9” Rear has new axle and pinion
bearings and seals and new lubricant.

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
Hurricane Sandy cost automakers 15,000 vehicles, may have ruined up to 200k
Wed, 07 Nov 2012Hurricane Sandy was the largest Atlantic storm in US history, and its total economic impact is just now coming into view. According to Automotive News, Toyota, Chrysler, Nissan and Honda are set to scrap around 15,000 new vehicles ruined by the storm. Nissan alone accounts for about 40 percent of those, with 6,000 Nissan and Infiniti models deeded "un-saleable" due to damage. The company saw 56 dealerships shuttered due to the storm, but 51 of those have since reopened.
Toyota, meanwhile, had some 4,000 vehicles at its Newark port facility, and of those, 3,000 may be scrapped. An additional 825 were dealer inventory when they were ruined. Honda and Acura dealers are reportedly sending 3,440 vehicles to the salvage yard. By comparison, Chrysler weathered the storm fairly well with 825 units destroyed, while Hyundai suffered only 400 lost units and Kia scrapped around 200.
As you may recall, Fisker also suffered some losses, and Automotive News reports the manufacturer saw 320 Karma models damaged beyond repair. Ford and General Motors have yet to come up with estimates, and no automaker has commented on the full cost of replacing the vehicles.
Ford recalls 83k Taurus and crossover models for halfshaft issue
Fri, 15 Aug 2014Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for some 83,250 vehicles in the US, for an issue with halfshafts. More specifically a "halfshaft retention circlip" might not have been properly installed on affected vehicles, with the result being halfshafts that may move improperly or disengage completely from the linkshaft while driving. The NHTSA release also notes that the issue may occur "without prior warning" which obviously factors in to the timeliness of getting this checked.
Should the halfshaft disengage, a few troubling things could happen. If it occurs while driving, power from the engine will no longer be transmitted to the wheels. And, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied after disengagement of the circlip, vehicles may roll away even if they're transmissions have been placed in "Park."
Affected vehicles are as follows: Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers from model years 2012 to 2014; Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans from model years 2013 to 2014; Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles from model years 2013 to 2014.
