Early 1966 Ford Bronco Half Cab Halfcab on 2040-cars
Salt Lake City, Utah, United States
|
Original unmolested 1966 Ford Bronco Half Cab. This half-cab was built in early September 1965 and could very well be the first Half-cab bronco ever produced. It is in great original condition and still maintains most of it's original Ford paint. It has brand new tires, brand new exhaust from the engine to the rear of the bronco. The bench seat has just been recovered with the foam and springs getting replacement parts as well. It runs and drives great. The original six cylinder engine purrs like it should. The three speed manual shift transmission shifts perfectly and doesn't make any unusual noises. The bronco was ordered early in production and was one of the first bronco half-cabs produced. The earliest of the broncos had the extra long transfer case shifter (as can be seen in the pictures) and this one still has the original floor mat. This bronco was also ordered with the optional trim package which included AM radio that still works Outside rear view mirror, door arm rests, passenger and driver sunvisors, chrome front and rear bumpers, chrome gas cap and chrome trim rings on the taillights

I just drove this Bronco from my house (at 6300 feet in the mountains of Utah) to the muffler shop and Cabelas (at 4000 feet in the city) for a round trip of 175 miles. The bronco drives straight and does not pull left or right Just straight. No unusual noises. The motor never got over the halfway mark on the temperature gauge and the oil pressure was 45 PSI and steady at idle or 55 mph. The windshield wipers are VACUUM and work perfectly. The brakes are in great working condition and need nothing. I recently replaced the left rear wheel cylinder and overhauled the master cylinder. I did not replace the Master cylinder, I simply bought a rebuild kit and overhauled the ORIGINAL master cylinder to keep the original parts. This is an extremely good daily driver and needs nothing (except a new owner) and will give many years of service to the new owner. I have included more pictures of the interior for those needing to see the seat, dash, radio and speedometer.. Thanks and happy bidding Randy |

Watch NASCAR racer Brad Keselowski do a burnout... in a hotel conference room
Fri, 08 Mar 2013A vast majority of hotels frown upon smoking inside the building these days, but Brad Keselowski doesn't follow the rules. During his introduction at the 2013 MiilerCoors Distribution Convention, the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup champion smoked the tires of his Miller-sponsored Ford Fusion stock car, adding a pair of thick, black stripes to the carpeting of the Marriott World Center's conference room.
This definitely isn't a high-quality video, but it's the perfect vantage point to watch Keselowski lay down some rubber and receive a well-deserved standing ovation after pulling up in front of the crowd. Check out the short-but-sweet video posted below.
Shelby Super Snake returns with 750+ horsepower
Tue, Jun 16 2015If you've been waiting for the ne plus ultra of new Mustangs, we're glad to report that the wait is over, friend. Feast your eyes on the new Shelby Super Snake. Based on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT, the new Super Snake is being offered with over 750 horsepower thanks in no small part to a Ford Performance supercharger. That's even more than the 605 hp in the last Super Snake released in 2007, the new 627-hp Shelby GT, or the 500-plus-hp Shelby GT350 you can order from the factory. Shelby American's latest also packs upgraded Ford Performance suspension components, a Borla exhaust, 20-inch wheels from Weld Racing and coated in Michelin Pilot Super Sport rubber, six-piston Wilwood brakes, and more. Differentiating it visually from lesser pony cars are a carbon-fiber hood and aero kit, blacked-out grille, racing stripes, and special badging inside and out. Inside you'll also find a short-throw shifter and three-gauge instrument pod. The upgrades will set you back $49,995 on top of the price of a donor Mustang GT, and only 300 examples will be built this year. For the first time the Super Snake will be available with either a manual or (heaven forbid) an automatic transmission.

With the option of over 750 horsepower, as well as unmatched performance enhancements to the handling, braking and cooling of the Ford Mustang GT, the new Shelby Super Snake continues the lineage of the best-selling and most sought-after Shelby car. Additionally, it will be the first Shelby Super Snake also available with an automatic transmission. There will only be 300 total 2015 model year Shelby Super Snakes built. "When Shelby American introduced the 605 horsepower Super Snake in 2007, the car became an instant sensation," said Joe Conway, CEO of Shelby American and co-CEO of Carroll Shelby International.
Ford idling Michigan Assembly Plant to trim Focus, C-Max supply
Tue, 22 Oct 2013Ford will be putting the brakes on production at its Michigan Assembly Plant in Wayne, MI, idling production during the weeks of October 28 and December 16. Ford is citing the first drop in US sales in 27 months, a 4.2-percent dip in September, as the impetus for trimming their supplies, according to Automotive News.
Ford's deft management of its supplies has been part of its success over the years, and seeing supplies of Focus and C-Max, the two vehicles built at MAP, rise from 58 and 108 days, respectively, to 71 and 122 days over the span of a month was apparently all that was need to justify the trimming. As AN points out, the rule of thumb for many automakers is to maintain a 60-day supply of vehicles.
"Ford has been focused on keeping their pricing in check. Their operating margin is in double digits. Nobody else is there and they're obviously very proud of that," Alan Baum, an auto analyst with Baum & Associates told AN. Keeping the supply chain operating smoothly and not increasing supplies too much is crucial to that healthy profit margin. After all, a large supply lowers prices ,which, in turn, cuts profit. So while this news might not be great for employees at MAP, who now have an extra two weeks of vacation time, it's far from a sign of problems in Dearborn. Quite the opposite, actually.
