For sale is an uncut 1970 Ford Bronco with removable top. I purchased this from an older gentleman in Georgia whom was a mechanic. He was meticulous with the engine which is evident in how well it drives. It starts up easily and the steering, clutch, and breaks work great. There are no fluid leaks and does not pull to the left or right. All lights and windshield wipers work. When you press the windshield wiper water knob you can hear the motor working, but I am waiting for the new solvent bottle to install. Windows open and glide smoothly including the back hatch. It has the original a.m. radio and I have purchased a new speaker for it, but have not yet installed it. Also, the horn is not working. I plan to have my mechanic look at. It could be a fuse. I have owned several Bronco's and by far this is the best running one I have ever owned and it looks great, too.
Prior to purchasing it there was some body work done and I picked up where the previous owner left off. I had a paint and body company do the work for me and they replaced one striker plate on drivers side and fixed several dents. This Bronco has minimal bondo for a 43 year old truck. There was a crude weld job done on the hard top on front drip edge. It can be seen in one of the pictures. There a few spots under the truck that have rust, but are not structural. A few dings and minor dents still exist, but over all looks beautiful. The truck is solid. I wanted to keep the truck as original as possible and painted it Color Code K which I believe is the original color. I also painted the rear wheel rack which is not shown and missing one of the hinges. Rhino guard was applied to the floor which is solid with no rust. The hard top inside and out, bumpers, and door panels were all painted and clear-coated when the truck was re-painted. There are a few rubber gaskets missing and the backseat does not have its armrest pads which are inexpensive to purchase.
The following have been replaced in the past 18 months:
- four new radial tires
- three new seat covers
- battery
- two rubber seals for both doors and two rubber seals above door on hard top
- water solvent bottle
- carburetor rebuilt
- fuel filter replaced
- new thermostat assembly
- new brake drums and shoes all the way around
- new master cylinder
- new brake hardware kit
- all new brake lines
- all new break cylinders
- new dash cover
This is a very dependable, strong running truck. Super fun to drive! Has to go to make room for a new project.
This is being sold "as is". A deposit of $1,000 is due within 24 hours of auction end and remaining balance due within five working days from end of auction. Buyer responsible for shipping and needs to be picked up with 10 days of end of auction.

J Mays' legacy
Fri, 15 Nov 2013
Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".
Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue
Fri, 22 Feb 2013It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.
William Clay Ford Sr. dead at 88
Sun, 09 Mar 2014William Clay Ford, retired vice chairman of Ford Motor Company and the last surviving grandchild of company founder Henry Ford, died this morning after a bout with pneumonia. He was 88.
Ford spent 57 years with his grandfather's company, joining the board of directors in 1948 before graduating from college. Ford also held a position as chairman of the design committee, as well as the chairman of the executive committee and vice chairman of the Board of Directors during his tenure with the company. In a 2013 Detroit Free Press story, retired CFO Allan Gilmour said Ford had an eye for design, and was once able to pick out when a fiberglass model of a Ford Contour was asymmetrical, off by an inch on one side. He retired and assumed the position of director emeritus in 2005.
"My father was a great business leader and humanitarian who dedicated his life to the company and the community," said Bill Ford, Jr., Ford's current executive chairman. "He also was a wonderful family man, a loving husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him, yet he will continue to inspire us all."
