Up for auction is a 1975 Ford Bronco with a 351W and C4 automatic transmission. I purchased the Bronco back in 06' from a guy that started a frame off restoration but did not complete it. I have decided to sell it because I have not done much with it in the past couple years and it really needs to be shown and driven. Over the last 6 to 7 years I have thrown a ton of money at it and added many new parts inside and out. I purchased the 351W motor from Ford Racing and it only has a few hundred miles. It is a pretty mild motor and runs great! I had the C4 transmission rebuilt just prior to adding the new motor.
The only part of the Bronco that I would say is lacking is the paint. It is shiny and looks great from about 10 feet but when you get close you can see that it is not a high quality job. Everything was primered in orange prior to the green paint. My intentions were to repaint it which would really finish it off, but it is not necessary. There are miscellaneous scatches and chips but nothing major. The only rust appears to be some bubbling in the rear quarter on the driver's side. Both rear quarters have some cracks where the tires used to hit prior to when I trimmed them a bit. The underside of the Bronco is very clean and looks like the floors had been redone and coated by the prior owner. The wheels wells, underside, hood, tailgate, doors, etc. all look great!
The interior looks new and was completely sprayed with SEM bedliner. I added new Bestop jeep seats with brackets, seats belts, tuffy lock box, steering wheel, and Sony cd/stereo with high watt marine type speakers on the roll bar. There is a small crack in the dash pad as seen in the pictures.
I have 3 tops for the Bronco including the STC soft top which is in great shape, the hardtop, and an unused bikini top. The hardtop has a cardboard type headliner which is coming off, but it really should be removed anyway. The hardtop is in solid shape with good glass. There is some bubbling that is starting to form in the front outside corners, but it still looks great.
The horn and emergency brake do not work properly and the gas gauge doesn't seem to register quite at the full mark when filled up. Other than that, everything else seems to be in working order.
Here is a list of new parts from what I can remember:
Ford Racing 351W (M6007S58)
Rebuilt C4 with oil cooler added
Edelbrock 600 cfm 1406 Carb
Front Disc brake kit with proportioning valve, brake lines, and Tom's Bronco Parts Power Brake Booster
BC Boncos 3 core radiator and brackets
Tom's Bronco Parts powder coated radiator shroud
BC Broncos 17" fixed fan and spacer
Pro Flow chrome long tube headers
Y pipe and magnaflow muffler
Wildhorses fuel tank, sending unit, and filler hose
Bestop front and rear folding seat
SEM bedliner
Arm rests
door handles
starter
battery
3" Body lift
sound damping material
gas hood springs
grant steering wheel
Tuffy storage console
Mickey Thompson Classic 2 Wheels with BF Goodrich Tires
STC Soft top and bikini top
Twin stick shifter
I am sure there are a bunch of other parts but that is what I could remember.
I highly encourage you to come take a look at it before bidding as everyone seems to have a different opinion when it comes to overall condition (I would think I am pickier than most). I have a clear VA title and the car is located in Cincinnati, OH. I also have the Bronco listed locally and reserve the right to end the auction early due to a local sale. I can be reached at 858-232-0757 if you have any questions.
Thanks for looking!

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder
Fri, 11 Jul 2014There may be more steering woes for the Ford Crown Victoria. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary evaluation into the Crown Vic and Mercury Grand Marquis from the 2004 to 2007 model years and the Mercury Marauder for the 2004 and 2005 model years because the steering shaft can jam. The issue could potentially affect an estimated 500,000 vehicles.
According to the regulator, there is a possibility that the driver's side heat shield for the exhaust manifold can rust, dislodge, and then wedge into the steering shaft. If this occurs, it leads to a situation where the driver can no longer control the car.
NHTSA has received five complaints of this happening, including one alleged case with an injury. In that situation, the car was driving onto the highway, lost control and rolled over. One occupant was hurt in the accident.
2015 Ford Focus Sedan is fresh-faced and ready to defend its Most Popular crown
Wed, 09 Apr 2014Ford has made an art of deeper-than-normal midlife updates since the 2010 Fusion, a strategy that has allowed it to keep models looking fresher in showrooms for longer without needing full redesigns. Instead of slight touchups to light fixtures, new paint colors and perhaps new wheel patterns, Ford has been digging deeper, with significant sheetmetal changes and very different front-end looks, along with an increased emphasis on new in-car technologies to keep models vibrant. Other automakers are following this trend, and Ford itself is continuing on the path with this new 2015 Focus Sedan.
There's a handsome new SE Sport Package that includes a firmer touring suspension, modest body kit and 17-inch wheels.
We first saw this sleek Aston Martin-like nose fitted to a Focus at the Geneva Motor Show last month, but Ford only showed the new look on the five-door hatchback - this is the first appearance of the sedan, which will bow at next week's New York Auto Show. The front end treatment is the same, with a new hood, new headlamps incorporating LED accents, a different grille shape and a completely revised lower fascia that does away with the 2014 model's controversial triangle-shaped corners and gaping intakes. The rear gets a new two-piece, laser-brazed trunk lid with new taillamps, but the overall look is quite similar to last year's car. In any case, the refreshed look brings the Focus sedan more in line with the design of Ford's other recently reworked cars, including the Fusion and Fiesta.
Fewest vehicles ever found eligible for Most American survey
Mon, 30 Jun 2014Once again, the most American car on the market is from an American brand. The Ford F-150 retained its number one spot in Cars.com's annual survey of the most American vehicles, trumping the Toyota Camry, which remains at number two.
Ford taking the top spot is small consolation, though, as the Detroit Three aren't too well represented here. General Motors scored a win at number seven, with the Chevrolet Corvette, while Chrysler squeaked in at number ten, with the Dodge Viper. Outside of those three vehicles, Toyota and Honda dominate the top ten.
What's most remarkable, though, is that there were so few cars available for this year's list.
