This truck is an excellent example of an original 1st year Bronco. The original Bronco, or Early Bronco as it is usually referred to as, was manufactured by Ford from 1966 through 1977. Although the body remained mostly the same over the twelve year period, the 1966 model has several parts exclusive to that model year that make the '66 Bronco the most collectable. This Bronco features all of these parts including: 170 c.i six-cylinder (with only 83K miles), silver-blue seats covers (original material in excellent condition), tail lights without back-up lights, transfer case shifter knob, door & window handles, forward mounted rear shocks, hubcaps & squared off bumpers. The original 1966 Bronco hubcaps & bumpers are very rare and difficult to find when restoring these trucks, as they are not reproduced. This Bronco also features a fold down windshield & removable vent windows. Included with this sale is the original steel hardtop and also a white EZ-Trac soft top. Both tops are in excellent condition. The soft top features removable side & rear tinted windows. 

I am the third owner of this Bronco. I have the original owners manual indicting that the 1st owner purchased this truck from Henson Ford, Inc., Clifton Forge, VA in 1966. The second owner brought the Bronco to Harrisburg, PA where it received new exterior paint, but otherwise was left untouched and used very sparingly. I purchased this Bronco approximately eight years ago and completed the following in order to make it an excellent driving and presentable show vehicle:

New rocker panels and tailgate from Dennis Carpenter Ford Parts, repainted front & rear bumpers, degreased, wire brushed and painted underside of truck with Rust Encapsulator chassis paint from Eastwood, degreased and cleaned engine compartment, repainted engine block with correct color Ford Blue using high temperature engine paint from Eastwood, applied all OEM correct engine compartment decals from NPD, installed OEM style carpet kit with stainless trim from the Bronco Graveyard, new side mirror & outside door handles from Dennis Carpenter, new fuel pump, radiator & alternator, new exhaust system from AutoCrafters Inc., new spark plugs, wires, cap & rotor.

Engine compartment and interior retain the factory original paint. The "Paint OK" stamped by Ford during manufacturing in 1966 is still present on top of firewall. Amazingly the seat covers are the original material and they are in excellent condition. Everything works on this truck - all gauges, lights, 4-wheel drive - EVERYTHING!! Tires & brakes are good. It starts right up every time and is ready for summer cruise nights & shows.

NADA classic car guide lists the value of this 1st year Bronco at $14K to $25K. I've seen them sell as low as 1K (rust bucket) and as high as 40K (100 pt. show winner). It all depends on what type of Bronco you are looking for. This Bronco is priced right in the middle and is an excellent example of a well preserved vehicle with little changed from when Ford rolled it off the assembly line almost 50 years ago. It is a great driver and gets lots of attention at shows. 

I love this bronco and i am only selling it because I have several other projects and no room to store everything.  This is a great running truck that very hard to find in original factory condition.  AND PLEASE - IF YOU HAVE PLANS TO CUT UP THIS BRONCO & MAKE SOME OFF-ROAD TRAIL TRUCK, KEEP SEARCHING. THIS BRONCO DESERVES TO STAY ORIGINAL!!!! 

$500 bank check by US Mail required within three days of auction end.  The Bronco should be picked-up within 2 weeks of auction end.  Final payment accepted in form of bank check or cash only.  No PayPal accepted for deposit or final payment.

Please email, text or call me with questions at 215-892-6610.  I'd be happy to answer any questions about the truck before you bid.

Ford Recalls Nearly 700,000 Vehicles

Fri, May 9 2014

Ford is recalling more than 692,000 Escape small SUVs and C-Max gas-electric hybrids in North America to fix two safety problems. The recalls cover vehicles from the 2013 and 2014 model years. Most of the Escapes have both problems. The first case covers 692,500 Escape and C-Max vehicles. A software glitch can stop the side curtain air bags from inflating in certain types of rollover crashes. The company says it has no reports of crashes or injuries. Dealers will reprogram the air bag control computer for free. About 65,000 of the recalled vehicles are C-Max models, and the rest are Escapes. Roughly 591,000 are in the U.S., with 3,500 more in U.S. territories. About 78,000 are in Canada and another 19,500 are in Mexico, Fordspokeswoman Kelli Felker said in an e-mail. There could be more vehicles affected in other markets, the company said. The affected Escapes were built from Oct. 5, 2011 through Feb. 14, 2014. The C-Max vehicles were built from Jan. 19, 2012, through Feb. 24, 2014. The second case covers about 692,700 Escapes. Exterior door handles can bind and stop the door from latching properly. This could allow doors to open while the SUVs are in motion. Dealers will inspect the handles and reposition them if needed. No crashes or injuries have been reported. About 583,000 are in the U.S. or its territories, with another 89,500 in Canada and 20,000 in Mexico. Ford said in this case, the problem may affect vehicles in other markets. All the North American Escapes were built from Oct. 5, 2011, through April 10, 2014. Recalls Ford escape

2015 Ford Mustang [w/videos]

Thu, 05 Dec 2013



It'd be unwise to bet against the sixth generation of this legendary nameplate.
The 2015 Ford Mustang is assuredly the most anticipated new vehicle of the year. The redesigned Pony Car has been the subject of frantic gossiping and covert spy photos covering everything from the way it looks to the tech it will include, its performance, mechanicals and a bevy of other aspects of Ford's performance icon.
