Up for auction is a 1987 FORD BRONCO FULL SIZE WITH THE CUSTOM PACKAGE.  The Custom Package comes from the factory as the base model (the most desirable for collectors) and consists of a no-frills interior with rubber flooring, vinyl seats, manual windows, manual door locks, power steering, power disc brakes, air conditioning, a manual four speed transmission, four wheel drive and a power rear window. This Bronco was owned by one of the members of the King family, the owners of the famed King Ranch in South Texas and has his name on the CLEAR TEXAS TITLE, THE TRUCK WAS ORIGINALLY PURCHASED AND HAS ALWAYS LIVED IN DRY SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS.  The tires are ALMOST NEW BF GOODRICH ALL TERRAIN TIRES and this truck is IN FANTASTIC SHAPE with the  ORIGINAL PAINT ( the clear coat has come off the hood and some of the edges on the body which is typical of silver paint on Fords) , NO RUST, NO WRECKS OR DAMAGE TO THE BODY EVER.  You can tell by looking at the chassis of this truck that  THIS BRONCO HAS SEEN VERY LITTLE OFF ROAD USE, I was told by Mr. King that the off road use was limited to the dirt roads around the ranch. The truck is a FACTORY CUSTOM PACKAGE which consists of RUBBER FLOORING THAT YOU CAN WASH OUT WITH A WATER HOSE IF YOU CHOOSE TOO, VINYL BUCKET SEATS UP FRONT AND A MATCHING VINYL BENCH SEAT IN THE BACK, POWER STEERING, POWER DISC BRAKES, FOUR WHEEL DRIVE WITH MANUAL LOCKING HUBS, A FOUR SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION, AIR CONDITIONING (blows cold) and AM/FM/ CASSETTE RADIO (stock stereo still works but stock speakers need replacing). Like the exterior of the truck the interior is also in superb condition, there is a tear in the rubber flooring on the passenger side, the stock shifter knob will not tighten down and is somewhat annoying, and the gas gauge works perfectly (when it wants too) but other than that everything works as it should, THE DASH HAS NO CRACKS, and the truck is very comfortable, clean and has no funny smells etc.  I have just had $1200.00 of work done on the truck (10/21/13) at Cambridge Automotive, San Antonio's best automotive shop according to AAA. Cambridge did a safety check, serviced the air conditioning, a full lubrication service, a major tune up, a fuel injection service, installed a NEW AC DELCO BATTERY and fixed the rear power window. The invoice for all this recent work come with the sell of the truck and all work and parts are fully warranted for 24 months or 24,000 miles and Cambridge will honor the warranty if the buyer is not from San Antonio. The buyer would just have to take the truck to a AAA approved place of repair and Cambridge will incur any and all cost of work that is under their warranty. The Bronco passed the safety inspection with flying colors and the only thing that was recommended by Cambridge is that the truck may need a new muffler at some point in the near future. The truck still has the original exhaust system on it and although the exhaust system is still fully functional and quiet, Cambridge said that the muffler is old( but it did not NEED to be replaced AT THIS TIME). This Bronco is VERY DEPENDABLE AND SOLID, IT IS A VEHICLE THAT YOU CAN FLY IN AND DRIVE HOME FROM ANYWHERE. The only non-stock items on this Bronco is the BF GOODRICH tires and the RANCH HAND FRONT GRILL GUARD, everything else is BONE FACTORY STOCK. The FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM WORKS FLAWLESSLY and the FRONT END IS TIGHT WITH NO PLAY OR WANDERING,  the BRAKES ARE GOOD AND TRUE AND DO NOT PULL UNDER HARD BRAKING.  The way I came to have this Bronco is that I have built multiple 1978-79 Ford Broncos from the ground up and the last one I built was a 1979 that I owned and drove for 12 years. Mr. King bought my 1979 Bronco from me 6 years ago with the understanding that if he ever wanted to sell it that I would have first right of refusal so true to his word Mr. King called me a few months ago and told me he was thinking of selling the 1979 Bronco and asked me if I wanted to buy it back. Of course I was curious and went to look at my old 79 Bronco and when I arrived at Mr. Kings home I noticed this 1987 Bronco also sitting in his shop and made an offer on both Bronco's which he accepted, I am keeping my old friend (the 1979 Bronco that I built all those years ago) and was planning to keep this 1987 Bronco to drive on my ranch in Colorado but after careful consideration I have decided that a truck would better serve me on the ranch and I do not need two Broncos so this 1987 is now up for auction. This Bronco is NOT your typical "ridden hard and put up wet" Bronco, this Bronco has been very well taken care of and it shows throughout the truck. THIS IS A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN ONE OF THE MOST DESIRABLE BRONCOS IN EXISTENCE. THEY JUST DO NOT COME UP FOR SALE IN THIS WONDERFUL STOCK CONDITION WITH THESE OPTIONS. DO NOT LET THIS BRONCO PASS YOU BY, YOU WILL REGRET IT. IF YOU HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THE BEST BRONCO YOU CAN FIND , LOOK NO FURTHER, THIS IS IT !!!!!!!  THIS BRONCO ALSO COMES WITH ALL THE ORIGINAL BOOKS, MANUALS, WARRANTY CARDS, TRIM TAG, SERVICE AGREEMENT, ETC. FROM THE FACTORY WHEN THE TRUCK WAS BRAND NEW AND HAS ONLY 109600 ORIGINAL MILES. THIS BRONCO IS PRICED AT HALF THE COST OF ANY COMPARABLE BRONCO ON EBAY, YOU JUST CAN'T GO WRONG WITH THIS ONE. Please checkout my feedback, bid with confidence and bid to win this BEAUTIFUL FACTORY ORIGINAL 1987 FORD BRONCO CUSTOM PACKAGE.  Thank you for looking at my auction, be sure to check out my other auctions and as always HAPPY MOTORING.                                                    ****A $500.00 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT IS DUE 24 HOURS AFTER THE CLOSE OF THE AUCTION AND THE REMAINDER OF THE FUNDS ARE DUE WITHIN 7 DAYS OF THE CLOSE OF THE AUCTION.*******

Ford F-250 boots Cadillac Escalade from atop thieves' most-wanted list

Tue, 09 Jul 2013

The Ford F-Series has been America's best-selling truck for decades, but along with the good comes the bad, apparently. In addition to being popular with consumers, the Highway Loss Data Institute notes that the F-Series Super Duty has risen in popularity among thieves. Based on its new study, the four-wheel drive crew cab F-250 Super Duty has topped the list for the country's highest rate of insurance theft claims, knocking the Cadillac Escalade from the top spot - a distinction the luxury SUV has held since this annual report was first established in 2003.
To reach its findings, HLDI looks at theft data from the previous three model years (in this case 2010-2012) to determine the frequency of claims for a particular make and mode,l as well as the average payment per claim. As the report points out, the claims aren't always for the theft of the entire vehicle - they can include components (say, wheels and tires) or property taken from the vehicle. At seven claims per 1,000 insured vehicles, the F-250 is six times more likely to suffer a theft claim than the average vehicle.
The Cadillac likely dropped from the top of the list to sixth due to additional theft-prevention features including a steering wheel lock and inclination sensor for the alarm, but GM's other fullsize trucks and SUVs still occupy eight of the list's 10 spots. Some of the least stolen vehicles with below-average loss payments include the Lexus HS250h, Hyundai Tucson, Honda CR-V and Dodge Journey. Head on over to the HLDI's website for the full list that shows the most and least popular vehicles among thieves from 2010 through 2012.

Ford, Samsung shack up to bring regen braking to non-hybrid models [w/video]

Mon, 09 Jun 2014

Ford must be desperate to get itself ready for the beach this summer because it is really trying to get into shape. Shortly after unveiling the Lightweight Concept that cut the weight of a Fusion down to that of a Fiesta, it's now the rest of the line's turn for improvement. The company is wrapping up a 10-year research project aimed at developing next-gen automotive batteries to improve efficiency.
Ford claims that 70 percent of its lineup will have stop/start tech by 2017. The key to this massive proliferation is its new dual-battery system that combines a lithium-ion battery with a lead-acid one and regenerative braking. The setup works by harvesting braking energy and converting it to electricity. When the vehicle stops, the engine shuts off, but the Li-ion battery has enough juice to keep the accessories running. The engine starts up again as drivers take their foot off the brake. The layout would mean less wasted gas while idling. It's already available on Ford hybrids and is somewhat similar to the i-Eloop capacitor-based system from Mazda.
The bigger challenge is tuning the regenerative braking right. While hybrid drivers may be a little more adventurous, when it comes to getting a hang of regen braking, conventional buyers might not be so open-minded. The systems have a tendency to be a little grabby at first and then taper off at very low speeds. Ford needs to make sure it's just right to avoid turning off buyers.

Ford Mustang hit by Moore' Oklahoma's EF5 tornado lives to do another burnout

Fri, 07 Jun 2013

Oklahoma recently saw the destructive power of an EF5 tornado, but in the aftermath of the devastation, we've also been witness to the incredible resilience of the human spirit. Moore, OK resident Jack Haden survived the storm but found that his 2003 Ford Mustang wasn't quite as lucky. As you can see in the image above, the tornado's 200+ mph winds did quite a number on the car, but while most people would have likely called their insurance company and scrapped the car, Haden had other plans.
After finding the car and seeing that its V6 still fired up, Haden spent a couple hours getting the car, um... roadworthy(?)... by removing the doors and front clip, cutting off the roof and putting on some new wheels and tires. He noticed that driving it around brought some comic relief to an area that needed a reason to laugh and smile. Check out the KSBI TV news report video below showing before and after pictures of the tough 'Stang, as well as a video showing the newly lightweight coupe doing a smoky burnout.
