See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Too much to mention, but for a start this Bronco has had a complete frame-off restoration and almost everything on it is either new or completely rebuilt. Engine was professionally rebuilt, as was the transmission and transfer case, and carburetor. Engine has NEW crankshaft, Ford flat-top racing pistons, rings, valves, seals, stems, rocker arms, bored .030 over. All of the following are NEW: coil, battery, shifter, brakes, rotors, cylinders, calipers, coil springs, leaf springs, dual exhaust with Turbo mufflers, drive shafts, U-joints, fender flares, fuel pump, gas tank, gauges, distributor, master brake cylinder, starter, water pump, windshield, stabilizer shock, belts, hoses, mirrors, steering wheel. Interior completely done including carpet, leather seats, rear quarter panels. I can email a spreadsheet that shows everything. Bronco has no rust- NONE! It's never been driven in bad weather and is stored inside in the winter. It starts fast, idles great, and runs at 70 mph smoothly."

Bronco has new padded dash, but it does have a crack in it. There is some minor paint peeling in the channels along the top roof- this is NOT rust. There are a couple of scratches on the body directly beneath the top on the driver's side and a couple of minor blemishes on the back. The grill could use a new paint job. The radio/MP3 player currently does not work. I don't care so I haven't checked it out- might be just a fuse. One fuse panel is hard to reach, and with back problems it's hard for me to get to. The speedometer needle jumps around some on occasion- it might need another shim in the transfer case. It hasn't bothered me enough to worry about. Cable and speedometer head are new. I wanted to put a headliner in it but haven't had time. Tires are worn some, but I don't drive it much. The 429 miles on it since the rebuild include two trips of around 100 miles each. Bronco is absolutely smooth running at 70 mph- a real pleasure to drive. Everyone flocks to it when I take it to car shows. I have owned, worked on, and rebuilt Broncos all my life. When I retired, I wanted to do one "going all out." I would put this in the top 5 Broncos in the country. It breaks my heart to have to sell it, but I have to settle a divorce. I will answer all questions to the best of my ability and I would urge you to look at the spreadsheet. I'm sure I forgot to mention dozens of new things on it. There is very little left to do.

Buyer is responsible for shipping arrangements, etc., but I am willing to help, depending on location.

2017 will be the year the connected car becomes a reality

Fri, Jan 13 2017

2016 was full of talk of autonomy, but little action beyond crazy, futuristic concept cars and announcement after announcement from automakers. If this year's CES is any indication, 2017 is going to focused on connectivity. More than that, CES showed that traditional barriers between automakers are breaking down in favor of universal and open source technology standards that will benefit both consumers and developers. CES, traditionally a showcase for the latest and greatest technology and gadgets like flat-screen refrigerators or televisions that broadcast in the fifth dimension, has become so intwined with the auto industry that we at Autoblog cover it like any other auto show. At every CES event I attended and nearly every booth I went to, there was some talk, display, or demonstration of how cars will connect to your phone and your home, and eventually each other. It seems we're heading toward the tech singularity where all devices work under one cohesive ecosystem – the Internet of Things, if you like. The difference between autonomy and connectivity is how real the latter feels because so much of the connected tech on display at CES is either here already or will be here by the end of the year. There were dozens of demos, both big and small, that allowed us to test and explore what's on the horizon. Bridging the gap between home and car, Ford is integrating the Amazon Alexa personal assistant straight into its vehicles. That means you'll be able to talk to Alexa in your car just like you would through an Echo or Dot at home. It also means you can shop on Amazon by voice while you're driving (since that wasn't convenient enough already). Samsung is developing smartwatch applications for Ford, BMW, and others. Toyota is adopting Ford's SmartDeviceLink smartphone connectivity system for its vehicles. That means developers can have one app that works across multiple infotainment systems. The Linux Foundation is developing an open-source operating system that will be free to use, making it easier for developers to connect smartphones and apps across multiple manufacturers' systems. Automotive Grade Linux, or AGL, is available for download right now. Major automakers like Toyota and Daimler (who usually are set on competing with one another) are partnering to further the development of the project. Bosch, Hyundai, and Chrysler showed connected car concepts at CES that preview the future of automobiles.

Ford to auction Mustang Cobra Jet prototype for charity [w/video]

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Prototypes developed by major automakers typically remain in said company's custody, but every once in a while, one trickles out into private hands. And that's just what we have here. Ford is donating a one-of-a-kind factory prototype for the 2014 Mustang Cobra Jet that will be auctioned off later this month by Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
Powered by a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 mated to a T4 competition gearbox, this rare Cobra Jet prototype includes a wheelie bar, chromoly roll cage, Weld wheels, three-link rear suspension, racing brakes, 9-inch rear axle and more. It's painted in a unique satin orange with reflective gray striping scheme, bears the serial number 2014 BJMS CJXX1 and is fully ready for NHRA competition on the drag strip.
To be offered with no reserve on Saturday, September 28, 2013, the Cobra Jet prototype's winning bidder will also receive tutelage at Roy Hill's Drag Racing School in Sophia, NC, along with tours of the Ford Product Development Center, Ford Racing headquarters and Ford Design Studios with Mustang chief engineer Dave Pericak. Scope out the video and details below for what could be the ultimate Mustang experience for a good cause.

2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid recalled over lack of roof padding

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Ford is recalling 33,021 units of its 2013 C-Max Hybrid not equipped with optional panoramic roof panels. During testing, the model in question returned testing results for occupant head injuries that fell outside of criteria laid out in the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. The issue puts occupants at greater risk of injury in the event of a crash if they are in an affected car.
The recall will begin August 19, at which time C-Max Hybrid owners can take their cars to dealers to have energy-absorbent material installed between the headliner and roof. The bulletin below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has more information.
