Have you noticed that these early Broncos are only increasing in value? The first generation of the early Bronco was built from 1966-1977, with a total of 225,585 produced. U13 Roadsters like this one were only built in '66, '67, and '68, with a total of only 5000 built over that 3-year production run. According to Bronco experts, there are less than 200 in existence today, and perhaps only 50 or so in restored every day driver condition.
'Ol Blue is the real deal. I am selling a TRUE U13 bronco built in 1966 and as a bonus you get the hard top and doors. I REALLY hate to get rid of 'Ol Blue, but I need cash to further develop my evolutionary website . Feel free to check it out and preregister AdFor.US. We will be launching Globally later this year.
I purchased this truck in Georgia (no salt or snow) 15 years ago and have driven it across the country a couple of times. Blue is my daily driver and has been for nearly 6 months and 12 states. Most of the work i've done to it is in the under carriage & externally. Hooker headers, with dual mufflers, Front disk brakes, Wild Horses 3.5 inch rock crawler coil springs and 11 pack leaf springs. Rancho 9000 five way adjustable shocks all the way around. 23 Gallon steel fuel tank, matched Drop Pitman, Poly Urethane Bushings and Newish- 1yr- Optima yellowtop battery (recharge even if 2VDC--Awesome!) I have also installed new upper and lower door rubbers. The rear driveshaft was custom reinforced by Atlanta Drive line. The front driveshaft is not sold with the truck as I lost it in one of my moves. I had a rubber undercoating sprayed on more than 10 years ago and it is still protecting very well. Less than 2k miles ago i added 2 brand new BF Goodrich A/Ts to the Hankooks (with 85% good tread) on clean alloy rims.
Original Floor pans and door jams are still about 96% there and can hold my 225lbs standing on them. I thought about patching the floor pan seams, but seeing them as they are is a testament to how well this 47 year old stallion is. Original Rocker and quarter panels are better than 99%. I have parked this truck 3 times for more than a year and it's '69 Fairlane 302 V8 started right up. I have a double barrel Edelbrock carb on it, for fuel efficiency. In the last 6 months I have added or replaced:
This truck is 75% done. Only easy stuff left to do. What it needs- (optional) power steering, a/c, wheel spacers, new fender flares (or repair the ones that are included with truck) and Paint, fan shroud, windshield wipers.
This IS a fantastic and rare investment. In ten years it will double in value. If you're looking for the perfect valentine present... it doesn't get better than this. Put your tax return to good use.
Extras that are included:
Doors, Steel Hard Top, Push Bar (original add-on), Rubber Cargo Mat, Dual CB Antenna's. Heavy duty Safari (cargo) roof rack and ladder. (500lbs), bikini top. I will also drop ship the original front seats and rear bench if I get my asking price. (the driver seat leans, but all seats are otherwise in good condition)
Thanks for looking!
We are currently in Seattle, but I am willing to drive Blue ANYWHERE in the Continental United States for an extra $1k or less (depending on where). I recently purchased new plates and had the title transferred to WA.
I recently started a facebook page for Blue and I, where you can see a couple of pictures and follow our moves. Check it out and 'like' our page-- Bronco N Buck --- The page goes with Blue.

Ford issues four recalls covering 163k vehicles
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Recalls! 2014 will be forever remembered as the year that automakers went recall crazy, with millions and millions of vehicles adding up to crush previous recall records well before the end of the year. Adding to that tally is Ford, which announced a call-back for 163,000 vehicles.
Leading that charge are the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder engines of the Ford Focus ST and Ford Escape. 160,000 of the 2013 and 2014 models have bad wiring harnesses that can disrupt the signals traveling to the powertrain control module. That, in turn, could lead to a check engine light, reduced power and stalling. Notably, Ford hasn't recalled any other vehicles that feature the 2.0 EcoBoost, such as the Fusion, Taurus or Explorer.
While the Focus ST and Escape constitute the vast majority of recalled vehicles, they aren't the only problem children in the Ford family. 1,300 Transit passenger vans from model year 2015 were recalled due to brake fluid leaks, while another 600 Transit cargo variants were recalled after Ford discovered the windowless sliding doors could come open in the event of a side-impact crash. Dealers will replace the sealing washers on the passenger variants and add a reinforcement plate on the cargo models, The Detroit News reports.
Ring Brothers shows 1965-66 Mustang fastback carbon fiber body
Thu, 07 Nov 2013We covered one of Ring Brothers' more extreme SEMA builds yesterday, the De Tomaso Pantera-based ADRNLN, but if that well-executed but over-the-top Italian-American exotic is too much for you, then perhaps this Ring Brothers 1965 Ford Mustang fastback with a carbon-fiber body suits your tastes better.
What the performance-parts manufacturer is showcasing with the Mustang is the carbon-fiber body itself, which is fashioned around the 1965-66 fastback. It can be bought from the company and bonded to the skin and unibody as a do-it-yourself project, or you can take your Mustang to Ring Brothers and have the body installed there. The fenders, doors and quarter panels are two-inches wider than stock, and Ring Brothers offers a custom widebody chassis to those who want the complete package.
The show car looks sharp in person lowered on HRE wheels, and we appreciate the bare front end so we can see the supercharged V8 and front coilover suspension, though the details on those performance upgrades are slim. Also note the custom independent rear suspension setup at the rear.
Ford Q3 pretax profits drop to $1.18B
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Following positive third quarter financial results recently from General Motors, rival Ford took a tumble in Q3. The automaker posted pre-tax profits of $1.18 billion, compared to about $2.59 billion in Q3 2013, a drop of around 54 percent. Net income also suffered with $835 million made in the quarter, versus $1.272 billion last year, a decline of about 34 percent. The Blue Oval blamed the gloomy figures on three reasons in its release: "lower volume, higher warranty costs and adverse balance sheet exchange effects."
There were problems of one kind or another in practically every region. North America experienced higher warranty costs than expected, partially due to recalls. The sales volume for the quarter was 665,000 units, versus 725,000 in Q3 2013, and pre-tax results amounted to $1.41 billion versus $2.296 billion last year.
South America and Europe both posted worse pre-tax results than last year. On the bright side, European volume was up slightly to 321,000 vehicles, from 303,000 in Q3 2013. The Middle East and Africa also lost $15 million, but that was an improvement compared to the $25 million loss previously experienced in this region.
