1976 Early Ford Bronco Bicentennial W/ranger Pkg. One Family Owned!!!!! on 2040-cars
York, Nebraska, United States
|
This is a true garage find I ran across. It's a rare 1976 Ford Early Bronco Bicentennial 4x4 with the Ranger trim package. Powered by the a 302 V8, Automatic Transmission, Power Steering, Lockout hubs, Original hubcaps & wheels, Roll bar, Chrome trim package, Even the smog pump is still there and works!!! This Bronco was purchased new in Omaha Nebr., from Markle Ford that is still in business today. This is a One family owned bronco that the original owner passed away and was given to his brother who I purchased it from. I was going to keep this one for myself but have decided to finish the 1968 that I already started redoing. I was told it was repainted back some time in the 80's. Very little rust for a bronco of this era. Mostly bubbling in spots but if you know these early broncos its expected. The Bronco runs & drives good but the tires are old & cracked. The dash pad is nice with no crack as is the seats & carpet that is just faded some over is life & dirty from long term storage. All the lights seem to work as does the gauges other than the temp gauge. Speedo works fine also. All the glass is good, the horn works, as do the wipers. The dual fuel tanks both seem to work but the fuel gauge works only part time. Good tight power steering & good brakes. You are looking at it just as I did when it was pulled from the garage. I did put some wax on the left front fender & the upper left door just to see how it would clean up. It looks like with a good detail you will have a very nice driver quality Bronco. It was lasted tagged in 1988. No major oil leaks, just seeping from age. I'm just going to offer it up as it sits before I have it detailed so everyone can see it as I purchased it. If you have questions call Mike at 402-362-7938. These Broncos are getting hard to find in this Original uncut condition. This one deserves a good home not to be made into a rock crawler or mud racer. Thanks for looking & HAPPY BIDDING!!!!

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Ford Focus 1.0-liter Ecoboost to only get manual trans in US
Sun, 23 Feb 2014Photos of the 2015 Ford Focus leaked earlier today, but now we're able to tell you more details of the global five-door hatchback. Bucking automaker's troubling trend of ditching manual transmissions in favor of automatics, Ford says the new 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine will come only in a six-speed manual in the US, because, well, American drivers aren't as sophisticated as our European brothers and sisters.
Ford didn't come out and say it that way, but it has found American drivers are more prone to complain about automatics in smaller-engine cars, Raj Nair, Ford's group vice president of global product development, said at a press conference last week. The recent JD Power Vehicle Dependability Study backs up Ford's claims, pointing out that drivers are complaining about rough transmission shifts, engine hesitation and lack of power, particularly in small cars. In Europe and other parts of the world, drivers seem to understand the quirks of these pint-sized engines, Nair said, so they'll have the option to buy an automatic. Ford is working on tuning its dual-clutch transmissions to make them more amenable to American driver's tastes.
Ford will show off the refreshed 2015 Focus at the Geneva Motor Show in early March. The car is due for an update, having been on sale in its current form since 2012. The automaker said it is jamming the car full of new technology - like a USB port that promises to charge your phone in half the time as a regular USB port. Features like Sync and a rear back-up camera will come standard. For a more in-depth look at the car, take a look at the full press release.
Bill Ford wins National Pond Hockey Championship with employees
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Who says executives aren't people? This past weekend, Bill Ford, executive chairman of Ford Motor Company, and a group of employees trekked up to Eagle River, WI for a few games of pond hockey. Team Ford took part in the 2014 Labatt Blue/USA Pond Hockey Championship, capturing its fifth title in the 50+ Tier 1 Division.

The FoMoCo team managed to score seven goals to River Valley's two, and went undefeated in all five of its games during the tourney. Take a look below for the official press release on Team Ford's win.
