I have an incredible truck at an incredible price ! So often too good to be true is just that, but in this case it is true. I have up for auction one of the 23,776 original first year broncos ever made. And, its one of the few left that didn't get the rear flares cut to make way for oversized tires. This timeless classic is the one that really helped start the off road and suv craze. It has been well owned and well maintained for years. It is a great riding and driving truck with its original 3.3 ltr 200 cu in straight 6 engine and three on the tree manual transmission. It absolutely cranks, drives, and shifts as it should with no hick ups at all. It was professionally and expertly painted three years ago with an enamel paint that looks virtually new. The interior is all there and all the gauges work as well as the blinkers, horn, lights, heat, fan and everything else. The only flaw there is the windshield wipers are out of sinc. I'm told I need a relay to be installed but have not followed up, I have the drivers side working and I never take it out in the rain so I had no interest in making the repair. The interior is as close to perfect as you can get, and the color combo looks great. The top is in great shape and the paint looks like glass. The only thing that's not stock are the bumpers that were made for this truck and fit and look better than the stock bumper, it also has a working 10,000 lb wench installed that has never been used to the best of my knowledge. Underneath the truck looks as good as the inside and outside of it does. I have been underneath and I will try to get it to a rack and update some photos later. I am going to sell it, and I am going to market it locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. The truck is sold as is and I recommend anything you buy off of the computer you either inspect personally or send someone to do it as I have bought 4 cars on EBAY alone and 2 were as advertised and 2 were misrepresented to say the least. If you have any questions or would like to arrange an inspection or showing please text, or call me, my name is Robert and I can be reached at (256)508-4722. I have sold 6 cars on ebay and had 100% satisfaction with my listings and sold all my cars reasonably so bid with confidence and good luck !
Ford’s first-generation off-roader has gone from cult classic to mainstream collector
If you haven’t noticed lately, vintage 4x4s are heating up the
collector market and the first-generation Ford Bronco is leading the way.
Conceived as a competitor for elemental off-roaders such as Jeep and
International-Harvester’s Scout, the Bronco’s dimensions were somewhat in
between them. Its 92-inch wheelbase and 151.5-inch overall length were
considerably longer than the Jeep CJ-5’s 83-inch wheelbase and 139-inch length,
but shy of the Scout’s 100-inch wheelbase and 155-inch length.Much like the groundbreaking Mustang, the original 1966 Bronco
(introduced in August 1965) represented a brave new world for the Blue Oval, as
Ford had never developed a dedicated 4x4 sport-utility vehicle. The frame,
chassis and body would be created from scratch, although engineers logically
adapted the front and rear axles from the company’s four-wheel-drive F-Series
pickups and used them with a Bronco-specific Dana 20 transfer case.Its 105-hp, 170-cubic-inch straight-six engine was a
“pick-up,” too – from the Falcon, although the carburetor was fitted with a
unique float to prevent fuel starvation on steep, off-road grades. The fuel pump
was heavy-duty, too, for the same reason. A 289 V-8 would join the lineup later
in the ’66 model year and would be supplanted by the 302 engine in 1969.
A three-speed, column-shifted manual transmission was the only
gearbox offered at first and an automatic transmission wouldn’t arrive on the
option list until 1973. All models through all of the first-gen production years
used a Ford 9-inch rear axle. A Dana 30 front axle was used through early 1971
and was replaced by the stronger Dana 44.The transfer case drove the front and rear
axles through constant-velocity, double-cardan universal joints. The design
enabled a higher mounting position and greater ground clearance. A coil-spring
front suspension and leaf-spring rear suspension were used. The front
“mono-beam” axle was located by a pair of forged radius rods and a track bar.
Out back forward-angled shocks were used on early models and replaced by
rear-canted shocks. The short wheelbase and unique chassis/suspension features
contributed to a super-short turning radius of less than 35 feet.Three body styles were offered initially: the boxy wagon, a
pickup-style half-cab and a Jeep-like Roadster. The
roadster was the lowest-price models, with a base price of only $2,404 in 1966,
but wasn’t popular and was axed from the lineup after 1968. All models were
designed for work and the roster of factory options included items such as
free-wheeling hubs, a limited-slip differential, heavy-duty cooling package and
more, while dealers touted available post-hole diggers, power booms and power
sprayers. The Bronco could even be upfitted as a small fire truck or tow
truck.With sales of 23,776 in its first year, the Bronco was off to
a promising start. But with its Spartan interior – no carpeting, sound-deadening
material or even a standard heater – it was definitely an SUV that emphasized
utility over sport![]() .

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation into the 2014 Ford Edge Sport for the possibility its 22-inch wheels could break while on the road. This affects an estimated 20,000 examples of the crossover, according to NHTSA. The case that instigated this evaluation was submitted to NHTSA in November 2014. The driver reported that the front, right corner of the vehicle suddenly dipped, and the Edge went into a field. No one was harmed, but upon investigation, the wheel had broken into two pieces, according to The Detroit News. When this happened, this crossover had been driven an estimated 8,500 miles. NHTSA's preliminary evaluations are meant "to assess the scope, frequency, and safety-related consequences of the alleged defect in the subject vehicles." If a problem is discovered during the investigation, this process can lead to a recall. Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker told Autoblog, "We will cooperate with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." INVESTIGATION Subject : Wheel Separation Date Investigation Opened: MAY 20, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: PE15020 Component(s): WHEELS All Products Associated with this Investigation Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) FORD EDGE 2014 Details Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company SUMMARY: On November 29, 2014, ODI received a complaint (ODI No. 10661278) reporting the sudden failure of an original equipment 22-inch alloy wheel rim that failed on a model year 2014 Ford Edge. The right-front corner of the vehicle suddenly dropped while driving, causing the vehicle to drive off the road and into a field. The right-front wheel rim was found to have broken into two pieces. The owner said that there was no prior warning or wheel related problems with the vehicle. The vehicle had been driven approximately 8,500 miles at the time of the incident. A preliminary evaluation has been opened to assess the scope, frequency and safety-related consequences of the alleged defect in the subject vehicles. Related Video:

DETROIT - Honda on Friday revealed its newest-generation Accord, one of four re-engineered midsize sedans that Asian automakers are betting on to win market share as Detroit automakers shift focus to SUVs, crossovers, and pickup trucks. The new Accord, like rival Toyota's all-new Camry arriving this month, offers major improvements in fuel economy, technology, styling and safety. Honda declined to discuss details ahead of Friday's event in Detroit. The Accord and Camry are pillars of their manufacturers' US businesses, each selling well over 300,000 vehicles a year. In the coming months, Nissan is expected to launch a new Altima midsize sedan, and Hyundai will launch a new Sonata. Both are popular marques that will be promoted heavily. "There has been no new news on the midsize sedan side for three years, and we think this is a great opportunity to bring attention back to the segment," said Jack Hollis, Toyota's head of marketing for North America. Year to date, US passenger car sales are down 11.4 percent, and sales of midsize sedans are down 14.2 percent. Still, Americans bought 7.1 million sedans in 2016. With General Motors and Ford cutting sedan production, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles abandoning the segment, Honda and its Asian rivals could boost sales with updated models, dealers said. "They could take share from other brands, which is traditionally what happens when a new product is launched," said Pete DeLongchamps, vice president for manufacturer relations at Group 1 Automotive Inc, the third-largest US auto dealer group. "NOT FINDING A PLACE WITH CONSUMERS" The Accord for years was Honda's top-selling model in the United States. Within the past year, US sales of the Honda CR-V have eclipsed the aging Accord, and Honda has expanded production capacity for the compact crossover. Passenger-car sales have steadily declined since 2012, when they made up 51.2 percent of the US market. Sedans have sagged to a 38.1 percent share in the first half of this year. IHS Markit said US consumer loyalty to SUVs and pickup trucks has risen since 2012, but declined for sedans. The new Accord and Camry "may stem the decline," said IHS Markit's Tom Libby. "I don't think they will cause a marked reverse." Improvements to the Accord should boost sales at Galpin Honda in San Fernando, California, general manager Ed Hartoonian said.
