Here is a great deal on a very cool 1973 Ford Bronco.


I'm selling this Bronco for my friend.  He purchased the truck in 2010 for $28,000.  He immediately got it appraised for insurance reasons and the appraisal came to $26,135.  I have a copy of the appraisal and the $265 invoice that will go with the truck.  The title is clear and he paid $3,134 to get it current and plated.  He had the 351 cu motor rebuilt and spent another $20,000 on upgrades over the last three years.  I have most of the documented receipts for the parts and itemized costs so the new buyer will know exactly what's new.  It was meant to be a weekend cruiser at his Malibu beach house and during the three years that he worked on it he might have put 25 miles on it.  Since then he and his wife had two little boys so the Bronco has to go.  I drove it from his beach house to mine and it ran fine but my kidneys weren't happy.  She's meaty, beaty, big and bouncy!  The approximate total he has into it is $52,000 and that does not include the hundreds of hours he put into it himself.  I just installed a new battery yesterday. The stereo has a locked compartment and there is an amp under the passenger seat and a monster base box behind the rear seat.  Everything works as it should.  I'm not a mechanic nor a body man but here's a couple things I noticed.  The entire exhaust system is new and the tailpipe needs to be attached.  I think it was ordered separately and not installed and yes it goes with the truck. Gas tank is brand new and the glass is good.  The passenger door needs to be adjusted but it does operate as it should.  Again, I'm not an expert on these so the appraisal and the paperwork will tell the story on this Bronco.  He has between $50-60K into it but he is a realist and asked me to just let it go.  Also included is a big box of spare parts most new in the package and some of the original parts that were replaced and a bikini top.  I'm going to start the auction off at $20,000 with no reserve.  If someone wants it for $25,000 or makes me an offer let me know and I'll let it go.  It's going to be parked in a busy location with a for sale sign on it and I'm also going to advertise it locally so I have the right to end the auction early.

Remember that these Broncos are old and require ongoing maintenance.  The resto is never really complete as most of the Bronco cult enthusiasts understand, but I want it to be clear that this is not a brand new truck.  No warranty, and this truck is being sold in "as-is" condition and no guarantee is otherwise implied.

Ford announces recall of 220,000 units in three different actions

Wed, Mar 25 2015

Ford has announced three separate recalls affecting 220,000 vehicles built between model years 2011 and 2015. By far the biggest affects just under 213,000 Ford Explorer and Police Interceptor Utility SUVs from MY2011 through 2013. In these vehicles, a spring in the doorway handle could be come unseated, Ford reports, causing the doors to open in a side-impact accident. The affected vehicles were built over a wide range of dates, starting with February 1, 2011 and November 30, 2012. As usual, the majority of the 212,911 vehicles were sold in the US market – 194,484 vehicles, in fact, while Canada and Mexico split the remainder, with 12,392 and 6,035, respectively. The other two recalls focus on specialty vehicles, with Ford recalling 6,500 F-Series Super Duty ambulances and emergency trucks from model years 2011 to 2015. In the case of the 2014 and 2015 F-Series, only trucks with the 6.7-liter turbodiesel are affected. These trucks may have faulty exhaust gas sensors, which according to Ford, could cause the trucks to think they're in a high-temperature situation. The trucks in questions were built at Ford's Kentucky truck plant between February 22, 2010 and February 1, 2015. Finally, the Blue Oval is recalling 1,725 specialty Lincoln MKT crossovers from MY2013 to 2015. These include limos and hearses built between March 6, 2012 and March 4, 2015. Affected MKTs may have a faulty vacuum pump relay that could cause a fire under the hood. In the case of the Explorers, dealers will inspect all four door handles and repair them as needed. The Super Duty's will get software updates, while the MKTs will have the vacuum pump relays replaced outright. A pair of MKT fires has been the only reported incident caused by the recalled components, while the company is unaware of any injuries or deaths.

Lincoln Continental production likely to shift to Flat Rock

Fri, Jun 12 2015

Lincoln production may be returning to Michigan, according to a new report from Automotive News. While the brand's current big sedan, the MKS, is built alongside the Ford Taurus, Ford Explorer, and their Police Interceptor counterparts at the Blue Oval's Chicago, IL factory, the production version of the Continental won't be screwed together in the Windy City. According to AN, "industry sources" claim the Continental will join the Ford Mustang and Ford Fusion – on which the big Lincoln is loosely based – at the company's Flat Rock, MI factory. The move isn't just based on convenience, though. Ford is selling a lot of Explorers, and shifting Lincoln production away from Chicago Assembly frees up production capacity for the popular SUV. "Chicago Assembly Plant is vital to our global manufacturing footprint and will continue to manufacture the Ford Taurus, Ford Explorer and Police Interceptor vehicles even after we phase out production of the MKS in 2016," Ford told Automotive News. "We will continue to match production to demand." Looking at the numbers further backs up the argument against Lincoln production in Chicago. Last year alone, Ford built nearly 285,000 Explorers and over 73,000 Taurus sedans, compared to just 8,300 Lincolns. Finally, as AN tells it, Ford is almost telegraphing the Continental's arrival in Flat Rock. The facility has a four-week shut down scheduled from June 15 through July 13, which is twice as long as the typical summer vacation, while there's another two weeks off slated for September.
