1971 Early Bronco
302 V8 backed by a C4 automatic transmission
This bronco was completely rebuilt in the past 6 months. It has a ton of money in parts and labor. I'm looking to sell due to losing interest and not having enough time to complete the last 5%
It has the following items:
Dana 44 front axle, Detroit locker, Premium lockout hubs, chromolly shafts, 4.56 gears, power disk brakes
Ford 9" rear axle, Detroit locker, chromolly axle shafts, 4.56 gears
James Duff 5.5" progressive rate spring suspension lift with long arms, 3" body lift, dual shocks front and rear
1.5" DOM crossover power steering w/steering stabilizer
6 point roll cage tied to the frame
Rebuilt 302 w/flat top pistons, mild cam, electronic ignition, holley 600 carb, MSD wires, new dual exhaust with flowmaster 40 mufflers and chrome tips
All new Centech wiring harness with updated blade type fuses
New long travel driveshafts front and rear
It has had a body off restoration. There is absolutely 0 rust on the bronco. I have replaced the floorpans, rockers, quarter panels with NOS parts. The frame was sandblasted and painted with POR 15 w/TopKote. The body was sandblasted, epoxy primed, and painted with Copper Pearl Barrett Jackson paint with 3 coats of clear. The paint and body work is decent, but does have some areas to touchup (its new paint, but was painted in a home made garage paint booth) I'd say it is an 8 out of 10.
The interior had new racing seats, lockable console, aluminum dash, Lokar transmission shifter, twin stick transfer case shifters, new rear fold and tumble rear seat, CD player with speakers in Centrapod.
The interior has Raptor Spray liner on the floor and sides, it has all new gaskets, seals, light lenses, gauges, etc..
There are Protofab bumper front and rear with a new 10,500# winch with synthetic line and hawse fairlead
The tires are 37" boggers (80% tread remaining) on black steel wheels.
The items to finish are:
-paint the doors and install correctly ( I have all new seals, knobs, panels, felt, etc.)
-The wiring is installed for a wiper motor and wipers, but do not have either items
- Install a speedometer(wiring and cable there, just need to buy speedo and hookup)
- Line up panels (installed, but didn't take time to line them up)
- hookup gas guage
- Hookup auxillary gas tank ( I have it, just need to hookup lines)
This bronco would be a very nice classic vehicle worth a lot more if someone has the will to finish (literally a weekend's worth of time). Everything listed above is brand new within the past 6 months and has less then 100 miles total.
Please message for more pics or questions.

Martin Smith retires, Joel Piaskowski in as Ford Europe design chief
Thu, 29 May 2014The mind behind the look of much of the modern Ford global range is retiring. Martin Smith, Head of Ford Design in Europe, will give up his position on July 1 and will leave the company altogether at the end of the year. He will be replaced by current Strategic Concepts Group leader Joel Piaskowski (pictured above).
Smith has led Ford of Europe design for the past 10 years, and he was partially responsible for the brand's Kinetic Design language with a large grille and swept-back headlights found on the Focus, Fiesta and C-Max, as well as several other vehicles abroad. After stepping down on July 1 until his retirement at the end of 2014, Smith will work on a project to decide the future direction of the company's look with Moray Callum, its vice president of design.
Piaskowski already has some impressive credentials in terms of automotive design as well. He joined Ford in 2010 as director of exterior design and led the teams responsible for the 2015 Ford Mustang and next-generation F-150. He was also previously design director at Ford Asia Pacific. Before working at the Blue Oval, Piaskowski held positions at Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai and General Motors. Scroll down to read the complete announcement of this changing of the guard.
Social media star Scott Monty leaves Ford
Thu, 22 May 2014It seems weird to think that an automaker could have a social media star, but Ford does. Or at least it did. Scott Monty, its Global Digital Communications Manager, led the company's team for almost six years and forged a reputation as being one of the most talented people in corporate social media. But the guru recently announced that he would be leaving the automaker for an undisclosed job elsewhere.
"I just decided the time was right. I am going to take a little time with my family, and I am going to start on a new adventure pretty soon," said Monty in an interview with AdWeek. He also explained a little about his theory of how companies should use social media. In his opinion, it should be a chance to go beyond standard marketing and build a relationship with people. Businesses need to have a broad focus for its online message, and using just one service isn't enough to be successful.
Under his guidance, Ford expanded its Facebook presence significantly. According to AdWeek, it launched the 2010 Explorer on the popular site. Also, when the company wanted to investigate selling electric models, it initially gauged the public's reaction on Facebook and then advertised them there first. Monty has been a major supporter of Twitter as well to broaden the company's communication with the public.
Mulally wanted to kill Lincoln as late as last year, Fields vows to turn it around
Mon, 30 Jun 2014Lincoln fans might want to give incoming Ford CEO Mark Fields a pat on the back for having a hand in saving the brand from the chopping block last year. He's among the people spearheading the rejuvenation of the division away from its stodgy image to appeal to younger customers.
According to two unnamed sources speaking to Bloomberg, CEO Alan Mulally was ready to kill Lincoln last year. Following the slow production ramp-up of the MKZ combined a with a costly ad campaign, Mulally was frustrated and openly suggested dropping the brand. However, Fields and Jim Farley, Ford's marketing boss, convinced the CEO that the brand was worth saving. They also created a plan to prevent similar problems for new models in the future.
It seems that one part of the strategy may involve waiting until new models are at dealers before starting a big ad campaign for them. Lincoln global director, Matt VanDyke, recently told Autoblog that the division is holding off on a full marketing push behind the new MKC crossover to prevent the supply problems that plagued the MKZ last year. Its big offensive begins in the fall when the CUVs are at all of the dealers and consumers are at home watching more TV. VanDyke also told Bloomberg that Fields, Farley and Joe Hinrichs, Ford president of the Americas, have more direct oversight over new product launches now.
