Year:1978
Mileage:62300
Location:
|
Condition: Very good condition 1978 Bronco Custom. Runs and drives very well for 35 year old car that has not been fully restored. It would be difficult to find original Bronco in better condition. Completely reliable and easy to start in cold or heat -- always turns over on first try. Body in good condition with little to know rust, unlike many Bronco's from this era. Bright blue paint is not original color -- not certain when paint job was completed but looks to have been done in last 10 years. Starting to see minimal signs of surface rust on interior corner of doors and door wells (so minimal that it is difficult to see in pics). The car was located in AZ until 2008. AC doesn't work. AC Compressor is present but not hooked up. Heater works. Heater vent fan bearings are starting to go and making noise but works (~$35 for new fan). New alternator and battery in Spring 2013. New exhaust/muffler in summer 2013. New Brakes in Fall 2013. $1500 spent on completely new brakes replacement/overhaul (new front rotors, calipers, rear drums, and brake lines). Tires have plenty of thread. The rear window, which is often an issue with these vehicles, is fully operational. Interior is black vinyl floor with some tears. Front seats and rear are original blue vinyl. Front seats have some tears and are covered with cloth seat covers. Rear seat is in good shape with minimal tears. Constantly getting compliments on this truck.
Features: 451M. 3 speed automatic transmission. NP203 full-time 4WD transfer case. Removable top is great for summer. Has aftermarket CD player and set of rear speakers (no door speakers). Aftermarket polished American Racing wheels, including spare wheel, with 33"x11.5" all-terrain tires. Spare tire is 31"x10.5". History: To the best of my knowledge, the car was in AZ until 2008, which is why the body has little to no rust present. After the vehicle was moved to southern WI. I purchased vehicle in May 2013 and currently reside in Chicago. I hate selling, but I am moving across the country. Must sell vehicle before leaving in a few weeks. Shipping and Payment: Winning bidder is responsible for $1000 deposit within 48 hours of auction close. Remaining full payment via certified check is required within seven days of auction close. Clear title in hand to make for quick transaction. Shipping arrangements and cost are the responsibility of the winning bidder. Please message with any questions or requests for more pictures. |

First 1K next-gen Mustangs to carry 2014 1/2 model year?
Thu, 18 Jul 2013A new report from Mustangs Daily, citing insider sources at Ford, tells us that the Blue Oval will produce 1,000 next-generation Mustangs with the model year designation of 2014 ½, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the storied marque. The commemorative half-year designation is a rumor that's been swirling in Mustang forums for quite some time now, and seems more plausible than ever with this most recent report. Certainly it's not far-fetched to believe that Ford will want to make a big deal of the golden anniversary for its most-loved model.
The story (compiled by Drew Phillips, who runs the aforementioned Mustang site when he's not directing the photography on these pages) goes on to say that the limited-run cars will be the first built on the new Mustang platform internally known as S550 (and spied testing in the attached gallery). Each car is said to carry a "special" VIN and build number, though no performance upgrades versus the 2015 cars to follow are in the works. A collector's dream then, rather than a weekend racer's.
USPS releases hot rod stamps to speed up your delivery
Sun, 08 Jun 2014After one of the worst winters in recent memory for much of the country, summer is finally here. It's time to drop the top, open the sunroof or at least put down the windows and take a long drive. The United States Postal Service is celebrating the season's sun in automotive style with two new hot rod Forever stamps.
Both stamps depict classic '32 Ford hot rods. One shows the car from the front at a low angle in red (pictured above), while the other depicts the car from the back in black with flames running down the side.
To introduce the new stamps on their first day of availability, the USPS went straight to the source at the National Street Rod Association Street Rod Nationals in York, PA. They were unveiled by Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe, Car Crazy host Barry Meguiar and NSRA Special Events Director Jerry Kennedy.
Ford continues autonomous tech development
Sat, Jun 27 2015Some of the autonomous-driving features that Ford offers in Europe will come to the United States as soon as next year. The Blue Oval will add the pre-collision assist and pedestrian detection technologies that it has already installed on the Mondeo sedan in Europe. Those features, part of what Ford calls the "second of three phases" in driverless technology, will be brought stateside in a yet-to-be disclosed model, while most of Ford's US vehicle line will have the features by 2019. It has been testing an automated Fusion for more than a year. Ford is looking to build upon the autonomous-vehicle technology that it already has on models such as the Fusion, Taurus, F-150, Edge, and Explorer. Those amenities include active-park assist, lane-departure warning, and blind-spot monitoring. Ford said early last year that it was working with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Stanford University to develop algorithms for use in driverless cars. The effort is part of Ford's so-called "Blueprint for Mobility" geared toward autonomous driving features that are being developed over the next decade. FORD COLLABORATES WITH SILICON VALLEY INNOVATION ECOSYSTEM ON AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES, 3D PRINTING, WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY Autonomous vehicle technology is another step closer to production at Ford – moving from a research effort to an advanced engineering project Ford announces it is working with Silicon Valley-based 3D-printing firm Carbon3D to quickly produce high-quality automotive-grade parts Ford kicks off wearable technology development with MyFord® Mobile app extension – coming soon to smartwatches including Android Wear – providing customers the ability to check vehicle driving range, battery charge and more for their plug-in hybrid or electric vehicle quickly from their wrists Autonomous vehicle technology is another step closer to production at Ford, moving from a research effort to an advanced engineering program, the company announced today. Ford has appointed a director of autonomous vehicle development – 29-year Ford veteran Randy Visintainer – and created a global team to work on the advanced program. Ford Research and Innovation Center Palo Alto is working on the global Ford team to deliver the Ford Smart Mobility plan, which aims to take the company to the next level in connectivity, mobility, autonomous vehicles, the customer experience and big data.
