Up for auction is my 1969 Bronco Sport. Firstly the pictures are 4 years old....the Bronco is buried in the back of my garage where it has sat for the past 4 years. I will add more pics when I get it out! My plan was to restore it but I never got around to it. Have too many other projects going on and decided to let it go. It has a 351W engine, 3 speed column shift, 4WD, and standard brakes and steering. The roof is NOT a factory half cab. It is a standard wagon roof that was cut down by the previous owner and it was done very nicely. From the outside the only way you can tell is that it has a hatchback instead of the regular rear window. The divider behind the seats was fabricated by the same guy who did the roof. It needs a full restoration but is a VERY good candidate for one! It is VERY straight but rusty. I did find a rust hole in the frame near the LR shock mount but repairing it shouldn't be a problem, it didn't go to either flange. It has the typical Bronco rust in the floors and you can see the rocker panels. There is no exhaust, just short down pipes on the exhaust manifolds. Fenders and hood are very good other than some rust through in the leading edge of the hood on the right hand side. The rear door posts where the door strikers are need replaced. Front posts seem pretty solid and the doors close pretty good. Dash pad is no good and glove box door is bent. The brakes are not working at all. When I bought it the LR emergency brake cable was frozen and I had to cut it to get the brake to release. It could be pulled on a tow dolly but you would have to bring tires for it, I would not recommend pulling it on the tires that are on it. I will help load it. I did have the engine running when I bought it but the carb was leaking gas. I did drive it around a little and the 4WD worked and the transmission worked in all gears. The electrical system seemed good, most of the lights worked and I suspect the ones that didn't had corrosion issues with the bulbs. It had sat for 7 years when I bought it. I have the PA title in my name. Buyer would be responsible for transfer fees and there is a notary about 15 minutes from me. I accept Paypal or cash when picked up. I will help load it. It is also for sale locally at the buy it now price so the auction may end at any time. If you have any questions feel free to contact me! Thanks for looking! I have removed it from the garage and added more pictures. The front floors have been repaired and do not look bad, they are solid. There is rust through behind the seat in the floor. I included a picture of the rusted out part of the frame. It is on the bottom between the axle and rear spring hanger. Still repairable in my opinion, it is a box frame and could easily be pieced in and reinforced. The floor in the rear isn't bad, just a few spots around the edges. ****Edit-7/18/14**** I just want to clarify about the hole in the frame. It is clearly visible in the last picture. In this picture you are looking at the LR corner of the Bronco from underneath looking back. The hole is beside the spring hanger on the bottom of the frame. |

Ford dealer gives James Robertson new 2015 Taurus
Fri, Feb 6 2015James Robertson, the 56-year-old Detroit native famous for walking 21 miles to work each day for the last 10 years, is behind the wheel again thanks to a gift from a Ford dealer. Robertson became an Internet sensation when the story about his daily ordeal came to light, and a GoFundMe campaign initially hoped to raise $5,000 to buy him a new ride. As of this writing, it has reached over $300,000. He didn't have to dip into any of that money to buy the new car, though. According to The Detroit Free Press, Suburban Ford of Sterling Heights, MI, heard about Robertson's story of never being late to work and having perfect attendance. The dealer is donating a fully loaded, red 2015 Taurus to him. It's not one of our choices, but certainly nothing to sneeze at. Robertson started walking to work in 2005 when his Honda broke down. According to the GoFundMe page, his job is about 23 miles away, but thanks to Detroit's poor bus network, he covers about 21 miles of that round-trip trek on foot each day.

Mulally wanted to kill Lincoln as late as last year, Fields vows to turn it around
Mon, 30 Jun 2014Lincoln fans might want to give incoming Ford CEO Mark Fields a pat on the back for having a hand in saving the brand from the chopping block last year. He's among the people spearheading the rejuvenation of the division away from its stodgy image to appeal to younger customers.
According to two unnamed sources speaking to Bloomberg, CEO Alan Mulally was ready to kill Lincoln last year. Following the slow production ramp-up of the MKZ combined a with a costly ad campaign, Mulally was frustrated and openly suggested dropping the brand. However, Fields and Jim Farley, Ford's marketing boss, convinced the CEO that the brand was worth saving. They also created a plan to prevent similar problems for new models in the future.
It seems that one part of the strategy may involve waiting until new models are at dealers before starting a big ad campaign for them. Lincoln global director, Matt VanDyke, recently told Autoblog that the division is holding off on a full marketing push behind the new MKC crossover to prevent the supply problems that plagued the MKZ last year. Its big offensive begins in the fall when the CUVs are at all of the dealers and consumers are at home watching more TV. VanDyke also told Bloomberg that Fields, Farley and Joe Hinrichs, Ford president of the Americas, have more direct oversight over new product launches now.
2016 Ford Focus RS may yet be AWD, US sales likely
Fri, 29 Aug 2014When it comes to forbidden fruit, few vehicles are spoken of in as hushed a tone as the Ford Focus RS. The turbocharged, five-cylinder hot hatch could only be seen from afar by American customers as it tore up the roads of Europe. And while it's safe to say that Ford's Yankee fans are quite happy to now be on equal footing with drivers in the old country thanks to the Focus ST, we doubt there'd be much protestation over a successor to the RS arriving stateside.
Of course, we've seen images of the new RS undergoing testing, but a new story by Road and Track aims to fill in some very large blanks in our knowledge of that car, thanks to a pair of mysterious insiders at the Ford. Chief among those is this - the RS will almost certainly make its way to the US, albeit in limited quantities. It gets better, though.
Under hood, the new RS is unsurprisingly expected to borrow the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Ford Mustang and 2015 Lincoln MKC. While that twin-scroll turbo produces 310 horsepower in the Mustang and 285 ponies in the MKC, R&T expects the RS to deliver quite a bit more firepower - 325 to 350 hp, with preference going to the higher output due to the limited-edition nature of the RS. This roughly fits with previous reports.
