1966 Ford Bronco Roadster on 2040-cars
Wofford Heights, California, United States
This bronco went through a complete frame off nut and bolt
restoration. It has all of the 66 one year bronco oddities along with all of the Budd body early production bronco
bodies oddities. These one year parts are next to impossible to find and this roadster has them all. Please do your
research if not sure about 66 bronco roadsters. This bronco was in amazing rust free condition before the
restoration. Over the years I collected a huge amount of new old stock (nos) parts that were used on this build.

case shift knob, emergency flasher indicator,headlight switch,taillight lens,taillight bezels,cigar lighter,
headlight knob,choke knob,emergency flasher knob,heater control knob, tire jack, radio antenna, windshield wipers
and arms,right and left front hub assemblies,spare tire wing nut, jack hold down wing nut, windshield washer bag,
windshield washer pump, valve cover breather, alternator wire harness, distributor, distributor cap and rotor. The
original seat belts were sent out and restored to original. The radio was sent out and updated with a phone jack.
Original bronco seats were professionally restored. The entire drive train was rebuilt engine,transmission,
transfer case, front dana 30 and rear 9 inch rear new driveshafts. Rebuilt steering column assembly and steering
box. New steering linkages all new brakes with stainless steel brake lines and master cylinder. Wire harness was
inspected and all contacts cleaned. Original radiator sent out and new core installed.Marti auto works hoses
clamps,battery cables,heater hoses, starter solenoid, voltage regular and radiator cap. Original 66 bronco hubcaps

Ford Mustang EcoBoost has fake engine soundtrack
Wed, 24 Sep 2014The 2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost represents a huge change for the Blue Oval as the first pony car in decades to be available with a four-cylinder engine. But a recent tweet (below) from Road & Track raised our curiosity about the new vehicle. Editor Jason Cammisa pulled a fuse while driving the latest 'Stang with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine, and he found that both the stereo and engine went quiet in the cabin. That indicated the coupe might have some form of artificial engine sound being piped in - a feature not previously heavily reported for the model. Autoblog spoke with Ford engineer Shawn Carney who confirmed that only the turbocharged four-cylinder Mustang comes with this system, called Active Noise Control.

Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor to get 365-hp EcoBoost option
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Speeders beware, the police are going to be getting quite a bit faster. Ford has just announced that it will be offering its 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged, EcoBoost V6 in the Explorer Police Interceptor. The new engine will be joining the existing 3.7-liter V6. The 365-horsepower, 350-pound-foot mill should be familiar to consumers as the powerplant that's found in the Ford Taurus SHO (and its LEO equivalent, the Taurus Police Interceptor) and the Ford Explorer Sport. It should also provide quite a kick in the pants to officers used to the naturally aspirated 3.7 and its 304 ponies and 279 pound-feet of torque.
The move to the more potent powerplant was born out of all the equipment officers need to carry on a day-to-day basis. These days, there's so much stuff that police need on a regular basis, that there's a genuine market for a faster Police Interceptor Utility, as it's known officially. The Explorer-based cruiser has already accounted for 68 percent of Ford's LEO sales in 2013, and that's with just the 3.7, and we'd only expect that number to increase once the twin-turbo, 3.5-liter V6 is available. Ford won't offer up any indication of what the take rate will be on the new engine, but we're guessing it'll be fairly high.
The success of the Explorer PI couldn't have come at a better time for Ford. The decision to end Crown Victoria production was not a popular one with police, and combined with Chevrolet and Dodge diving into the LEO market feet first, Ford hasn't been performing as well as it's wanted to. The Explorer has been helping it turn around, though. And with the inclusion of the EcoBoost, Ford also has a legit competitor for the Chevrolet Tahoe on the big utility side of the police market.
Bill Ford wins National Pond Hockey Championship with employees
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Who says executives aren't people? This past weekend, Bill Ford, executive chairman of Ford Motor Company, and a group of employees trekked up to Eagle River, WI for a few games of pond hockey. Team Ford took part in the 2014 Labatt Blue/USA Pond Hockey Championship, capturing its fifth title in the 50+ Tier 1 Division.
"It feels great to win," Ford, who plays on the team alongside other Ford employees, told the USA Hockey website. "It was fun to play [River Valley Pioneers] because they're great guys and we play them every year. We finally beat them, which we were due. It was a very clean game, a tough game."
The FoMoCo team managed to score seven goals to River Valley's two, and went undefeated in all five of its games during the tourney. Take a look below for the official press release on Team Ford's win.
