1973 FORD BRONCO NEAR MINT CONDITION. I bought this truck from a family where a frame off restoration was started and the dad passed away before completion. The frame was sanded down and smoothed out and repainted. On reassemble of the frame all new body bushings, radius bushings, brake lines, brakes and hardware, axle seals, 2 new fuel tanks and hoses, all new suspension coil springs and leaf springs, shocks, exhaust,new bumpers, and body bump stops were used. No expense was spared and everything is new. As for the body, it was very solid to start. the only rust repair needed was on the floor pans. Both floor pans were cut out and new OE pans welded back in. the rest of the body was sanded down and primed with a high build primer then shot with a bright white base coat to make the calypso coral really pop. This base coat was wet sanded and prepared for coral basecoat. After the calypso coral was applied it was sanded to 1500 then several coats of clear applied. The final wet sand was cut and buffed to 2500. Paint looks great. Underside of body had undercoating applied also. The drivetrain was rebuilt also. Engine was totally rebuilt and runs strong as can be. After motor was rebuilt I added several modifications...Chrome intake, chrome Edelbrock carb, chrome breather, valve covers, and Chrome brake booster. All new plugs, plug wire, distributor, new alternator, new starter, new fuel hoses, radiator hoses, etc.... A very nice Centech wiring harness was installed professionally and as you can tell in the engine compartment was all properly covered in loom and hidden as much as possible. The interior was updated as follows: James Duff shifters added, new seats and foam, new door panels, arm rests, door handles, mirrors, Rhino lined floor, all gauges work as if new, all lights work, turn signals, some new felt was installed around door glass, new upper and lower door seal, new hardtop and windshield seals, with new windshield glass. This Bronco sits on brand new 31/1050/15 all terrain tires and Pacer wheels. This Bronco has approximately 1000 miles on it since the restoration was complete and operates flawlessly.

National Geographic Channel balances Ford F-150 on four coffee mugs
Wed, 29 Jan 2014Proving that there is still something to be learned on television these days, National Geographic Channel recently introduced a new series called Duck Quacks Don't Echo. On the first episode of this science/comedy show, host Michael Ian Black proposes the idea that a truck can be supported with a ceramic coffee mug under each wheel - yes, he says that the entire weight of a truck can be balanced on just four coffee mugs.
Looking to find out whether this is fact or myth, the show uses a regular cab Ford F-150, weighing in at 4,800 pounds, and four average coffee mugs. Lowered onto the mugs, the idea is quickly put to the test. Can the cups hold up under 4,800 pounds? If so, what, exactly, would it take to break them? Scroll down below to find out.
2015 Ford Focus gets more Aston-y [w/video]
Tue, 04 Mar 2014With more and more members of the Ford brand adopting a new familial face, the Focus has been left looking like an odd man out. At the Geneva Auto Show, though, it properly rejoined the family, adopting the now familiar Aston Martin-ish grille that's proliferated throughout the range.
Overall, we're liking the refreshed Focus' look. Aside from the new grille, the headlights have been restyled and now look like elongated versions of the lamps on the Focus ST. Functionally, those headlamps are bi-xenon units, complete with an adaptive front lighting system. Out back, the rear retains the same overall look, which has been smoothed out for 2015.
In the cabin, the second-generation of Ford's much-maligned Sync system makes its debut. Sync 2, as it's called, is supposedly more intuitive than the first-gen system. Ford is promising "one-shot" navigation functions for the system. Saying "I'm hungry," should bring up a list of nearby restaurants. Of course, we'll be reserving final judgment until we can test the new system in person.
Ford hybrids getting update to improve fuel economy
Tue, 16 Jul 2013Ford has announced that it is introducing "calibration updates designed to improve on-road fuel economy for owners of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid."
We can speculate that these changes are at least due in part to lawsuits over mileage claims of hybrid vehicles. The automaker is enhancing 2013 models starting in August by raising their electric cruising speed to 85 miles per hour from 62 mph, optimizing the use of active grille shutters and the climate control system, shortening the engine warm-up period by 50 percent and reducing electric fan speed to minimize the fan's energy consumption.
It bears mentioning that Ford is doing pretty well in the US electrified vehicle market this year. The company claims to have grown its share in the segment by 12 points to 16 percent while taking a high number of Toyota Prius trade-ins in the process. Conversely, Toyota has experienced a five-percent drop in new-Prius sales over the same period. Additionally, Ford states that it has increased its share of the US vehicle market by one percent this year, more than any full-line automaker.
