Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"They're are a few imperfections on the vehicle, including a small area on the front grill where the paint is chipped, the back bumper also rubs on one side but it doesn't squeak and isn't noticeable until you look for it. There is also a small amount of rust on the very bottom of the body under the driver side door, but again is only noticeable under intense observation. The hood has two small dents in the center about halfway to the windshield. These were caused by the air intake protruding from the engine, these are also barely noticeable. The transmission has a very slow fluid leak, normally a drop every few hours. To fix this leak would involve dropping the transmission, so I feel that adding a little transmission fluid every now and then is a cheaper fix."

My family and I have had this vehicle in our possession for over 12 years. Most of that time we kept it in our barn at the house, and used to around the house and to run to town and back every now and then. Keep in mind the vehicle was still stock at that point, with the original 302 and manual 3-speed transmission. It was only 4 years ago that we decided to have it restored. Over the next 3 years our Bronco stayed at a custom vehicle shop in our hometown, where it was completely tore down to the frame, painted, and every old and worn out part was replaced, including the engine and the transmission. We decided to go with the beefed up hot-rod style, so that's where the Ford 347 Stoker engine came from. Complete with fuel injection and a dual air intake, this combination spits out a hefty 430 horsepower and 400lb of torque. Complementing this hog of an engine is a Magnaflow exhaust system, that makes it very obvious to anyone around when you pull out on the highway. But enough about just what's under the hood, this Bronco is decked out from head to toe. Starting at the front, we have a custom front bumper made for the 8000lb winch, controller included. The front axle is a Dana 40 complete with air-lockers, and in the back there is a Ford 9" rear end, also with air-lockers. The transmission is a Ford C6 automatic 3-speed which delivers even more low end torque. Transferring all this power is an Atlas Breaker transfer case, which enables 2-high, 2-low, 4-high, and 4-low; Traction for any occasion. In the area of traction we decided to give this beast a lot of it, and we accomplished just that with the 33" by 13.5" Dick Cepek Mud Country mud terrain tires. Around the all steel body the vehicle has all of its original decals, including the chrome 302 decal on both of the front fenders. Chrome running boards make the jump into the vehicle a little easier. All of this and we haven't even gotten to the interior. We replaced the original seats with two Corbeau racing seats of front, and a Corbeau bench in the back, all black leather. Protecting whoever is inside is a roll cage, just in case. Attached to the top of this roll cage is a weather proof, powder coated speaker box containing four 6'' by 9'' Marlin speakers, and behind the back bench seat is another speaker box with two 10'' Marlin subwoofers for the base notes. This can be accessed by a line-in cord running from the back speaker box and comfortably reaches the drivers seat. The entire interior floor is rhino-lined black. I mentioned earlier that there is a few imperfections, like most restored vehicles. There are few spots on the Bronco where the paint has either chipped or rubbed away. The chip on of the front grill and is smaller in size than the average pinkie finger nail. On the back left side of the vehicle the back bumper rubs the body and has rubbed a small area of paint away. And at the very bottom of the body under the driver side door there is a small amount of rust forming, but again it's virtually not visible when standing right next to the Bronco. Lastly there is a very slow transmission fluid leak, normally a drop every few hours. For a leak this slow I don't personally feel the need to drop the transmission and check the seal, but simply add a little fluid every now and then. Please forgive the dustiness of the interior, I happen to live on a dirt road and it is just too much to keep clean from day to day. I will gladly have the entire vehicle detailed upon purchase. In simple words this is a good solid and dependable truck, very collectible, it has tons of power and sounds great. If at all interested I still have the original 302 engine and manual 3-speed transmission that we took out and I am willing to sell those as well. You can contact me by email at tlwalkerlaw@aol.com, and my cell number is 1-713-829-5070. If you would like to wait till this add ends and make a deal not involving ebay that would be fine. Payment will have to be made in cash upon delivery or pick up, or wire transfer will also be accepted. I will be able to deliver within a 500 mile radius of Jasper, Texas.

2015 Ford Focus Sedan is fresh-faced and ready to defend its Most Popular crown

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

Ford 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.

Ford Focus ST, Fiesta ST buyers to get free Octane Academy driving school

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

The Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST have created plenty of excitement in the sport compact segment, and Ford is looking to make sure that owners are driving and enjoying their cars to the best of their abilities. As an added bonus for buying one of these sporty hatchbacks, Ford will provide a complimentary ST Octane Academy session to be held at the Miller Motorsports Park in Utah.
Attendees will be responsible for travel and lodging, but Ford will provide the driving school free of charge. Included in this two-day trip, ST owners will get class instruction and driving instruction in prepped Focus ST and Fiesta ST models on the track and autocross course. Some karting action will also be involved as will a tour of Ken Block's Hoonigan Racing headquarters located nearby. If this doesn't sound like enough fun, there is also an optional day of activities that includes some more track time in a Mustang GT and off-road instruction in an F-150 SVT Raptor.
Ford told us that those who have already purchased a Focus ST or Fiesta ST will still be able to attend the performance driving school, but the press release, which is posted below, makes it sound like it applies to original owners only. Ford has yet to announce its schedule for the ST Octane Academy or prices for additional activities or guests.

Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.
