1972 Ford Bronco W/ 302 V8! on 2040-cars
Saint Francisville, Louisiana, United States
|
I bought this bronco from a good friend of mine who has bought, restored, rebuilt, and either sold or kept multiple broncos. Almost every thing you see now is from his work. The only updates I have done since then are: put in a new, larger radiator, a new electric fuel pump, installed the rear bench seat, and bypassed the fuel tank closest to the driver seat so that the main fuel line runs straight to the back tank.
It has: circuit painless wiring harness, custom paint job with door inserts, wildhorses front disc brake conversion, mallory ignition and distributor, 2" suspension and 2" body lift with 33" mud tires, and a full size 33" mud tire spare with mounting kit on the tailgate. I have never taken it off road and only enjoyed back country road cruises all around! There are no doors or top, I did not get any when I initially bought it, which makes for very relaxing and breezy rides, I know my dog has really enjoyed those. And the bikini top gives you just enough relief from the sun and if you get caught in a rain storm. My friend put the bumpers on the front and back that are on currently, along with a Warn winch. The winch is currently not hooked up, so I am not sure if it still works or not, looks nice though. Also, their are mounted KC lights on the front with covers. Both of these do work for extra lighting when you are out riding in the woods at night. The bronco also has rhino liner sprayed throughout. Original steering is still hooked up, so there is no power steering but could easily be converted. There are a few spots where the paint is chipping, but overall the paint job looks very nice and trust me, you will turn some heads driving it around. |

MyFord Touch getting second update, extended warranty
Wed, 28 Nov 2012There is no doubt that Ford has had its hands full fielding complaints with its MyFord Touch and MyLincoln Touch systems these days, but looking to keep its customers happy, Ford is once again upgrading its infotainment systems and extending the warranties. Despite having just sent out updates for its systems back in March, Automotive News says that customers are still complaining about the speed and ease of use.
Vehicles with MyFord Touch will now get a five-year, unlimited-mile warranty, while the MyLincoln Touch will have a six-year, unlimited-mile warranty. Previously, the systems were covered under basic warranties (three-year, 36,000-mile for Ford and four-year, 60,000-miles for Lincoln).
What is being referred to as "version 3.5" for the MyFord Touch and MyLincoln Touch systems will be mailed out (or downloaded) next month for owners of cars without navigation and in January for cars with nav. Owners of hybrids, plug-ins and electric vehicles will get the update sometime in the first quarter of next year.
Ford 3D-printing Mustang out of chocolate and candy for Valentine's Day
Thu, 13 Feb 2014Is your beloved in love with the new 2015 Ford Mustang? Do they like chocolate (that's a trick question - everyone likes chocolate)? Are they a bit of a futurist? Then this Hallmark holiday, you need to get them this Ford Mustang, 3D-printed in sweet, delicious chocolate.
Ford is teaming with 3D Systems' Sugar Lab in LA to produce the super-accurate pony car confections in both chocolate and sugar candy varieties. The process kicked off with a CAD rendering of the 2015 Mustang, which was then programmed into the 3D printer. After a bit of work from the machine, a four-inch long, two-inch tall Mustang was the result. Why the tieup with 3D Systems, though?
"We wanted to create something fun to show that while 3D printing made these edible Mustangs, manufacturing-level 3D printing was used in the development of Ford's all-new sports car," said Paul Susalla, Ford's supervisor of 3D printing.
Chris Harris pits Fiesta ST against Mercedes G63 AMG in 0-60 battle... sort of
Thu, 01 Aug 2013Vehicle performance tests are serious business, with reputations made or broken by things like braking distance, top speed, and lateral g-forces. King of the metrics, though, is the 0-60 run, which for unknown reasons has become the benchmark for what truly makes a car a performance machine.
Now, Chris Harris from Drive has turned the whole idea behind the sprint to 60 on its ear. Taking a new Ford Fiesta ST, Harris asks a simple question: would the ST be quicker to 60 on its own, or on a trailer being towed by a Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG?
It's a fair question, really. The Fiesta Harris tested hit 60 in 7.2 seconds on a slightly uphill section of runway. It should be noted that Harris quotes his ST at 182 horsepower, which is about 15 ponies less than what we're getting in the US, so these numbers might not hold up all that well against an American model. The G63 AMG, meanwhile, is a 536-horsepower monster, powered by a twin-turbo V8 that, able to propel the big SUV to 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds without towing a Fiesta.
