WORLDWIDE NO RESERVE AUCTION

1972 FORD EARLY BRONCO 4X4

                            

If you're looking for a great early Bronco this is the one to own.

 Why? For starters it has just three owners from new 

With a 302 under the hood and that unique hardtop it's a very high-quality SUV with a pedigree that's 100% ready to play in the dirt. Like its sibling the Mustang the early Bronco could be just about anything an owner wanted just by checking the right option boxes. This one has rear seating compartment and if you want to attract attention this is a great way to do it. 

Dark grey paint doesn't hurt either and It has an incredible shine.

 Will note that it sports a somewhat rare dual fuel tank option.

 The interior is in excellent condition with cloth bench seats is an unusual feature that's quite welcome here for safety.

 The black door panels are not original but look good and grey carpets tie everything together quite neatly and the paint on the door jambs and inner panels is every bit as nice as the exterior;

A manual transmission works with the 302's ample torque curve and  perfect for climbing through the rough stuff.

 

302 cubic inches' worth of V8 in a relatively lightweight package makes this Bronco extremely entertaining on the road and formidable in the dirt. The engine bay looks pretty authentic from the heavy-duty air cleaner to the unique angled master cylinder and power brake booster and it runs superbly.

 A massive radiator up front keeps it cool even when you're just creeping along in low gear and a recent carburetor means that it runs quite well.

Ford Blue paint and correct decals give it an authentic look and with a Pertronix ignition system it starts almost instantly. Underneath it shows well with lots of originality but excellent maintenance throughout. The manual transmission and transfer case are linked to a pair of Dana 44 axles with a modest lift kit to accommodate the oversized off-road tires on shiny aluminum wheels from a late-model Ford. With a great pedigree and extremely high-quality work this awesome little Bronco is one of the smarter moves you can make with these red-hot 4x4s.

Ford wins second consecutive Engine of the Year with 1.0L EcoBoost [UPDATE]

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

For the second year in a row, Ford has taken top honors in International Engine of the Year voting. As was the case last year, it is Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine that earns the automaker the accolade, achieving the highest-ever accumulated score in the 15 years that the award has been handed out.
A panel of 87 automotive journalists from 35 countries are responsible for choosing the world's best engines, and this is only the third time an automaker has managed back-to-back victories. Voters were impressed by the "Baby EcoBoost" engine's power output - 123 horsepower between 1,400 and 4,500 rpm, 148 pound-feet of torque from 1,400 to 4,000 rpm - and its compact size; Ford has demonstrated that the package is small enough to fit in the overhead bin of a passenger airplane.
Currently, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered in the European Fiesta, B-MAX, Focus, C-MAX and Grand C-MAX, and Ford plans to put the engine in the Transit Connect, Transit Courier, Tourneo Connect, Tourneo Courier, Mondeo and EcoSport in short order. In North America, the Fiesta will be the first vehicle to offer the 1.0L EcoBoost later this year.

Ford gets its Movement on, releases 'Sounds of Focus' tracks

Sun, 25 May 2014

Ford has, for at least the second year in a row, teamed up with techno promoter Paxahau and a couple of artists to make music in recognition of the Detroit Movement music festival. This time, Movement performers Ataxia and Secrets were selected by Ford, and were invited to spend some time at the automaker's Michigan Assembly Plant, which gives birth to the Ford Focus and Focus Electric models.
Now that we know the what, how about the why? According to Ford, "Detroit is uniquely tied to the origins of the electronic music scene. In the 1980's variations of electronic music stemmed from inspirations of industry, including the automotive sector." So, there you go. If you're interest is piqued, feel free to read the press release, watch the video and listen to the tracks below.

Mulally will stay close to Ford after he steps down, plans to advise Fields [w/video]

Fri, 27 Jun 2014

Ford CEO Alan Mulally has less than a week left in his role of leading the Blue Oval before he hands off duties to Mark Fields on July 1. It doesn't look like Mulally is going to be shuffling off into his retirement anytime soon, though. The 68-year-old is being rather secretive about his next move, but he tells Bloomberg in a recent interview that he plans to stay close to Ford. Also, if Fields wants to ask for any advice, Mulally is happy to help.
Mulally took over at Ford in 2006 and led the company through a seriously rough patch in the auto industry. According to Bloomberg, he became famous or his Thursday meetings where executives were forced to deal with any problems before they could leave. Since announcing his retirement from Ford in May, Mulally has been insuring a smooth transition of power by traveling the world to all of company's major locations and saying goodbye to employees and dealers.
In terms of the future at Ford, Mulally doesn't predict any big changes in management style because the rest of the executive team is staying in place. He believes that Fields is going to maintain the processes already in place to keep things going. After all, it seems to be working. The company is predicting a return to profitability in Europe next year and is opening 88 new dealers in China. If the business could get its recalls under control, things could get even better.
