Up for auction is my 1974 Ford Bronco project that I have had for 6 years and have lost interest in due to having no time to work on it anymore. It is a full cab bronco with a 302 automatic, power steering, and posi trac dana 44 front end and posi trac ford 9 inch small bearing rear end. I got the truck with the intention of restoring it but kids come along and take up all the time. It has the original paint on it and has the typical rust for these old trucks. The body and frame as a whole are in good condition. The frame just has surface rust. The front floor have rust and I started cutting them out to replace them. I have new floors that go with the truck. It needs a new windshield frame and upper cowl, the right inner fender needs some patch panels mainly under the battery, the hood has rust along the front lip, the doors are rusted out on the bottom and the right door's window frame needs replacing, and the tailgate has some rust but is not rusted out. The rest of the body is in good shape. The door post are good. Since I have owned it I have installed disc brakes off of a 1979 bronco and I have a brake booster and a complete new brake line kit that has not been installed but goes with the truck. It will crank and run but the fuel tank either needs to be cleaned out or replaced. It has a new carb and fuel pump. It has Mickey Thompson Baja rims and all terrain tires that have good tread but are old. The seats have been removed and stripped down to the frames and will go with the truck. The top is in good shape but does need some dents taken out of it along with new paint. All of the glass with the exception of the windshield is in good useable condition. All in all this truck will make a nice truck to restore or make into a trail rig.

Ford calling in 28k Edge crossovers over fuel line leak
Thu, 16 Jan 2014A problem with the fuel line on certain examples of the Ford Edge has prompted the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall. The issue revolves around the metal housing on the fuel line pulse damper, which was apparently improperly manufactured in the first place and is prone to crack in certain circumstances, leading to a fuel leak. And as we all know, a fuel leak is not a good thing.
The problem affects model year 2012 and 2013 Edge crossovers equipped with the 2.0-liter engine and manufactured between September 2, 2010 and April 25, 2013 - a total of 27,933 units. Although the Lincoln MKX is closely related to the Edge, since it isn't offered with the same engine (to which the problem is related), the recall does not include the premium-badged version. See the recall notice below for further details.
Ford taken to task by gov't for Chicken Tax end-around
Mon, 23 Sep 2013Ford is in a bit of a pickle for importing and selling Turkey-built Transit Connect cargo vans as passenger vehicles in the US, then converting them to commercial-vehicle specification stateside in an effort to bypass a 25-percent tax imposed on vehicles imported for commercial use. Automakers are required to pay a 2.5-percent tax on imported passenger vehicles.
The Blue Oval got into trouble for this in a January ruling in which U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials asked Ford to stop the practice of importing the Transit Connect vehicles with passenger seats, then removing and shredding them. Now Automotive News reports that Ford is appealing the ruling. The 25-percent "Chicken Tax," as the tariff is often called, is 50 years old and was enacted as a response to a German tariff on chickens. Like Ford, Chrysler bypasses the higher tariff, but it does so in a different manner. It partially disassembles Sprinter cargo vans before shipping them to the US, then rebuilds them at a plant in South Carolina.
But the ruling against Ford's strategy states that it "serves no manufacturing or commercial purpose" and is there to "manipulate the tariff schedule," Automotive News reports. As Ford's appeal goes through, it is importing the Transit Connect and paying the higher tax, hoping for a favorable outcome and planning to build the next-generation Transit Connect, which it plans to launch before the end of the year, in Spain.
Ford tops mid-year ranking of brands in the US
Thu, 18 Jul 2013YouGov's mid-year Brand Index rankings of America's best perceived brands has been released, and Ford has found its way to the top. The Dearborn, Michigan based manufacturer beat out online shopping giant Amazon, The History Channel, and home improvement superstore Lowe's, to take the top spot.
Ford jumped from sixth overall in 2012 to first for 2013, but those that have been watching these rankings shouldn't be hugely surprised. Ford was rated the best perceived automotive manufacturer by the same organization last year. The Blue Oval's success on the overall brand rankings is made all the more impressive by the complete lack of other automakers on the list.
YouGov (that is, survey respondents) cited Ford's first quarter of 2013 business, which saw an increase in market share and the best earnings recorded in over 10 years. Successfully launching the Focus and Fusion (pictured) and keeping them fresh in the minds of consumers has also contributed to Ford's best overall score.
