I have a very nice 1977 Ford Bronco Sport for sale. This was the last year they made this size Bronco and I think it was the best year, power brakes, power steering, Air Conditioning, 4x4, Automatic etc... This Bronco starts every time, runs, drives everything works and recently went through inspection and passed of course. Everything on the Bronco is original other than the interior and that is in terrific condition. Two areas with rust and that is the rear drivers side fender corner and a small spot on the tailgate as seen in pictures, floors and roof are solid and not really any other issues to worry about. Paint is original patina and people always comment on how I should keep it that way. This IS a daily driver and I would not hesitate to take it on a trip. I am confident that the milage has rolled but the engine runs like its accurate. Has a new gas tank, new turn signal wiring harness, new brakes, has a nice sun roof that was not original equipment but a nice touch, A/C works and is very cold. Short auction to see if it will sell otherwise it is going to auction next week. Willing to sell it with a buy it now if the offer is good and always looking for a trade but not sure if we can do that on here. Thanks for looking.

Everyone wants to know my buy it now price, I am not giving a price but taking offers.
And yes I know it needs work to be a "show truck" but I am not asking a show truck price. This is a nice driver or a really good platform for a show quality truck.

The fascinating forgotten civil defense history of Mister Softee trucks
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Hemmings came across an interesting article from the Throwin' Wrenches blog about the intersection of ice cream, cars and civic duty in America's late 1950s. In particular, it focuses on the Mister Softee trucks, which criss-crossed neighborhoods of the eastern US serving ice cream. Looking past the ultra-durable vehicles used - heavy-duty Ford-based chassis, for what it's worth - the article delves into some deeper national-security territory.
See, Mister Softee truck owners were voluntary members of the Civil Defense, thanks to all the useful stuff (potable water, generators, freezers and fridges) that the machines carried with them for serving ice cream. Click over to Throwin' Wrenches for the full run down of how Mister Softee would have stepped in to help fight if the Cold War ever turned a little hotter.
Ford to reveal Vignale sub-brand with special Mondeo in Frankfurt
Tue, 03 Sep 2013Ford says that 10-15 percent of its customers in Europe want their cars to be set apart from regular Fords - even those wearing the top Titanium X trim - and the Blue Oval will answer them with the Vignale sub-brand. The new brand proposes a more upscale look and a much-improved dealership experience, Autocar reports. The Vignale Mondeo will debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show to kick off the new endeavor.
The first Ford to receive the Vignale treatment will be the 2015 Mondeo, a Euro-only model, followed by the new S-Max and Edge. The Vignale Mondeo is set apart visually from other Mondeos by a chrome grille and chrome door handles and mirror caps. Mondeo badging will be deleted - only Vignale badging will make an appearance.
The interior will get a more upscale flavor, as well, with quilted leather seats and door trim and leather covering the instrument panel, center console and steering wheel. A Vignale-badged storage drawer will be installed in the trunk, and in-car Wi-Fi is available.
How Ford secretly used customers to test its aluminum F-150 [w/video]
Fri, 30 May 2014Automakers getting clever about disguising development vehicles isn't anything new. Between mules wearing the sheetmetal of other cars and prototypes decked out in as much camouflage as is practical, automakers know how to make it very difficult for the general public to get an exact idea of what kind of vehicle is in development. Ford, though, is rapidly becoming the master.
We knew that the Blue Oval originally tested the durability of the aluminum construction being used for the 2015 F-150 by building an all-aluminum 2014 truck and entering it in the Baja 1000 off-road race. That's no longer a secret. What we didn't know, though, is that the aluminum development dates back to before even that, and that some of the people in question had no idea what it was they were working with.
Ford says this is the first time prototypes have ever been handed over to the public.
