1974 FORD BRONCO 4X4.
Recent restoration…Great looking…Perfect running…Classy daily driver. This Bronco turns heads!
Interior/Exterior
Good frame off restoration but certainly not perfect, the paint is called “Rescue Green” was laid on nicely but I feel the body could have been blocked out a little better. Rocker panels and Interior floor-pans were replaced like most vintage Broncos and then sprayed with herculiner throughout the entire bed.
Front seats were donated from a modern vehicle so they’re fully adjustable with the rear bench being custom designed to complement the front with matching material. Door panels are custom to match seats. 6 Point roll cage with windshield support brackets. Dakota Digital gauge system looks and performs awesome. The Glove box door was modified so it would open due to the roll bar being mounted in front of it, a common problem with a 6 point roll cage. Leather wrapped Lecarra 14 inch steering wheel. All gauges and accessories function as they should.
All window felt and marker lens were replaced, headlights were upgraded with the H4 conversion kit.
Kayline soft-top is “Like New” condition, garage kept no fading or yellowing plastic, Sorry NO HARD TOP comes with this beautiful Bronco.
Running Gear
Rebuilt 302, not bored or cam’d out. Stock 2-barrel carb, Very clean, runs great with lots of power. Rebuilt C4 automatic transmission with Dana 20 transfer case, Dana 44 disc brake front axle and heavy duty ford 9 inch rear. New Duralast alternator, E3 spark plugs, Optima battery, and all new ignition components. Dual Shocks all around and bushings are from Duff’s, 3.5 inch suspension is from Wild Horses with variable rate front coils and 11 pack soft ride rear leaf springs. New Power brake booster, Power steering pump was upgraded to the GM model. New U-joints. 23 gal fuel tank with adjustable sending unit.
New 33 x 12.5 x 15 BF Goodrich All Terrain KO2 tires on “OK” steely rims (nothing fancy there)

Ford's Farley apologizes for saying Blue Oval tracks customers with GPS
Fri, 10 Jan 2014Ford marketing head honcho Jim Farley made waves at CES this week by telling show attendees, "We know everyone who breaks the law, we know when you're doing it." according to a report by Business Insider. Farley continued by saying, "We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing. By the way, we don't supply that data to anyone."
Farley has since amended his statement, saying that Ford dose not, in fact, track its customers in their cars "without their approval or consent."
Apparently carried away with a hypothetical notion, Farley was attempting to describe how Ford might be able to employee aggregated user data for things like accurate traffic reporting and pattern spotting. A Ford spokesperson confirmed with Business Insider that its GPS units are not sharing the whereabouts of drivers, though there are a few on-board services that might do so. After opting in to the services (and presumably being made aware of any/all tracking and data collection), Ford's Sync Services Directions and Crew Chief software do, in fact, allow data collection as a means of improving both systems. Farley added that the opt-in data is not shared, even when being tracked.
NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.
NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors
Wed, 22 Oct 2014
Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.
