You are looking at a 1970 Original Ford Bronco with 76,911 original mile.   The Bronco is an unrestored other than it was repainted the original color a few years ago.  The Bronco has been garaged and everything works on the drive very well.  The tires are are in excellent condition.  The All the doors are straight and shut tight. The seats, headliner, radio (AM), antenna..... really everything I can think of looks and works well.  

The engine runs great and has always been tuned by a local classic car guy who owns a shop and knows how to tune properly.  It has the original distributor and runs points.  Never upgraded to electronic ignition as it's easy to care for and really kind of cool being original.  The exhaust is also original and works well.  Both fuel tanks work well and the valve to switch tanks works also.  All instrument panels and lights, gauges work.  All chrome bumpers are in great condition I believe to original 

It has some factory options, the 4:10 rear differential and 9" Ford rear axle.  That means with the 302 V-8 (first year of what would become the 5.0 Mustang motor in the early 80's - underrated at 205 bhp and 300 lb/ft of torque) and the three speed manual column shifter (3-on-the-tree) get poor gas mileage (about 10mpg), but will climb the side of a mountain like a billy-goat.  It's purpose built, of course.  

History:  The original owner bought the Bronco new and it spent its life as a daily driver from 1970-2007 in Durango, Colorado.  Then the 2nd owner who was a collector bought it and repainted it and cleaned it up and it has sat garaged since 2007.   I believe he may have put 1000 miles on it in 5-6 years.  I bought the Bronco to be a daily drive for me to make my big 1 mile commute to work everyday.  Needless say I haven't been driving it and I have a a few cars and I am needing to make some garage space.  Please note the only issue I have found on the Bronco is the inside left engine sidewall has barley rusted through , overall there is a 2" round part where the metal is thin.(Please see pictures).  There is a black mark like possibly something in the engine compartment got on the sidewall and accelerated the process.  Also there is a small bulldog hood ornament the prior own put on.  Other than that the Bronco is perfect and run great.

Ford Mustang outsold Audi TT and Porsche 911 in Germany

Fri, Apr 8 2016

Despite being the antithesis of the cars Germany is known for, the new Ford Mustang was the best selling sports car in the land of schnitzel and beer last month by a whisker. The Mustang beat out the Audi TT by 780 units to 708, and it beat Germany's best known performance car, the Porsche 911, 780 to 752. That makes some sense, right? The Mustang has to be cheaper than those competitors, right? Not really. Both the EcoBoost and V8-powered Mustang have higher starting prices than the equivalent TT. The 2.3-liter, EcoBoost-powered Mustang starts at 38,000 euros (around $43,300 at today's rates), while the front-drive Audi TT starts at 35,950 euros (about $41,000). The V8-powered Mustang GT, meanwhile, starts at 43,000 euros (about $49,000), which is just 2,550 euros more than the Quattro-equipped TT. When 310 horsepower or 435 hp can be had for just a couple thousand more than 220 hp, it's easy to understand the Mustang's success. The 911, of course, is a lot more expensive than the Mustang. You can buy two Mustang GTs for the price of a single Carrera. But Ford also managed to beat out the Porsche's smaller siblings, the Boxster and Cayman twins, which sold a combined 642 vehicles. Again, the pony car is significantly cheaper, but that doesn't do much to lessen the impact of the Mustang's victory. If you're in Germany and are concerned about this American invasion, you shouldn't be (yet). The TT is Germany's best-selling sports car from January through March, with 2,299 to the Ford's 1,823. Porsche is breathing down the pony car's neck, too, with 1,811 units in 2016. It'll be interesting to see if Ford's successful March carries on into the rest of 2016. Related Video:

TRANSLOGIC 147: CES 2014 Autonomous Vehicles

Wed, Jan 15 2014

We head back to CES in Las Vegas to check on the progress of autonomous vehicles in 2014. We go hands-free on the highway with Audi, narrowly avoid a collision with Ford and hear all about BMW's drifting driverless car. But first we take a ride on Induct's self-driving Navia shuttle.
