You are bidding on a beautiful 1967 early bronco with the legendary 289 mated up to a Ford AOD 4 speed automatic overdrive transmission that has undergone a restoration within the past year. Some items covered in this restoration were engine and suspension work, metal work, new paint and various other odds and ends that will be described in the next few paragraphs. Included with the sale is a 1967 Bronco specific shop manual as well as receipts that date back to 2007 spanning 3 owners. I purchased this vehicle back in November of 2012, the odometer at the time of purchase
was 62,954 although I suspect it has rolled over. Ive put 5400 miles myself since having
the gauge cluster rebuilt. In 2011, at
approximately 57,000 miles the previous owner had the engine rebuilt and added a few power options to include; 351 cam,
roller rockers, installed new edelbrock performer intake and 1403 electric
choke carburetor, headers, starter, spark plugs and wires, air cleaner,
etc. New 3.5 inch lift and extended
radius arms, as well as new rebuild kits for the axles and new gaskets for the
differentials. Installed a used AOD with
an advance adapter kit. New gas tank with sender. Class 2 hitch. Stainless steel quick release door hinges. Floor and rust
repair and upgraded front Chevy disc brakes, 15 inch black daytona wheels with 33x12.5 Toyo MT open country, to name a few. When I picked up the Bronco back in 2012 it was having transmission and electrical problems. Transmission issues were due to a cracked case and an incorrect rebuild which caused the trans to slip at low rpms and shift hard at high rpms. I spent $2700 to find and rebuild a whole new AOD case over at Advance Automatics in El Cajon, CA. The day I got the Bronco back with the fresh trans I took it for a drive only to have it break down on me as a bundle of wires caught fire under the dashboard. That's when I decided to build my own harness keeping only a few of the stock wires that were untouched. About 90% of the wires from the firewall forward are new. What started as a simple daily driver build turned into a continued restoration. Since ive owned the Bronco here is a short list of work ive done, any work outsourced was performed at Advance automatics or Beach city broncos in El Cajon. All parts purchased were from well known vendors such as; Wild Horses, LMC truck, BC broncos, James Duff, CJ pony parts, Jegs, Summit, Oreillys, etc... Within past year: Various door, tailgate, hood gasket sets and seals Rebuilt carburetor Rebuilt AOD transmission with correct advance adapter
case. $2700.00 - case and rebuild / $634.00 Advance adapter kit New flow kooler water pump and robert shaw high flow thermostat New old stock timing cover with gasket New power steering pump, pulley, belt, and hoses New 1 wire alternator New old stock fan shroud New fuel filter and hoses New spark plugs New upper and lower radiator hoses with lower anti-compression spring New vacuum hoses, PCV valve Rebuilt distributor, installed pertronix II electronic ignition Flamethrower II coil New H4 headlamps, wire harness fused and relayed New horn Most wires under dash replaced Rebuilt gauge cluster Installed Autometer water temp gauge Installed but not wired in Autometer oil press gauge Recovered front and rear stock seats in black leather/gray fabric, drivers seat has 1/4 tear New paint, paint supplies total $1000 alone without labor Undercoat interior floor Lizard skin + undercoat underside floor Undercoat inside of doors + 3M wax spray in doors and rockers New front and rear chrome bumpers and side view mirrors BC Broncos media console w/IPOD hookup and speaker 90's ranger steering colum with working intermittent wipers, horn, etc. all electric works Bronco custom car cover Painted but not installed classic bubble scoop New speedometer cable, gauge speed is accurate New e-brake cable, parking brake springs New tailgate silencer Cutout fender heat exchanger

belts (Not cheap, DOT legal in all 50 states) New valve cover gaskets Readjusted roller rockers New fuel pump and hoses Repainted engine in correct Ford blue New DOT approved windshield There are various other odds and ends I have fixed. I also still have some parts on order. For example, ive cleaned and rebuilt the
original WARN hubs but they continue to stick so I have brand new WARN premium
hubs being shipped. Waiting on 2 tie rod
rebuilt kits and stop lamp switch. Ordered aftermarket 3 spoke steering wheel and momo adapter hub. With all the work that has been completed please keep in
mind this is a 47 year old vehicle and it should be driven as such. In the past 2 years I've only put approximately 5400 miles because my job keeps me away. I hate to see this one go but Im only selling this to
fund a family wagon overland build. This
is not a concourse level restoration but it is very nice as I get compliments
everywhere I go. I built this rig
exactly as I wanted. While I was
stationed in Port Hueneme I drove this vehicle every other week from Port
Hueneme to San Diego, a 180 mile trip one way without issue. Im now stationed in Mississippi and use this
as my daily driver. It has performed flawlessly thru Los Angeles traffic in 90 degree weather, and thru the snow packed woods in 28 degree winter weather in Gulfport. If you have further questions or would like to check out the vehicle in person feel free to contact me. I can also give you my screen name on classicbroncos.com so you can see every issue ive had since taking ownership. The odometer reading will fluctuate as this is my daily driver. That being said there are subtle rock chips and wear tear blemishes from being driven that I am currently taking care of. As stated above, I installed a new DOT approved windshield this past weekend to replace the cracked one it came with. This vehicle is being sold "as-is" with NO warranty either expressed or implied. I reserve the right to end this auction early in the event it sells before the auction ends. Offers are welcome but please no trades. Only payments accepted are cash in hand or wire transfer from your bank directly to mine. I bank with Wells Fargo.

Couple fined for parking Ford F-150 in their own driveway
Tue, Jan 20 2015A homeowners' association in New York is suing two of its residents for parking their pickup truck in their own driveway. David and Arna Orlando of Manlius, NY, are facing a lawsuit from the Kimry Moor Homeowners Association for parking their black 2014 Ford F-150 pickup in their own driveway. The Orlandos own their home, but common areas such as their driveway are managed by their HOA, which limits what vehicles can park in the open. They only allow "private, passenger-type, pleasure automobiles" to park outside of a garage. David Orlando says his pickup is a personal passenger vehicle and that the rule is silly. He also feels he is being unfairly targeted. A Syracuse.com reporter drove around the Orlandos' neighborhood and saw another fullsize pickup parked in another driveway, along with a large van and SUV. The Orlandos said in court documents that the pickup is registered as a private vehicle and neither of them have commercial drivers' licenses. The lawsuit was filed in August 2013 and is still in the discovery phase. Depositions are up next. New York seems to have gone power-mad when it comes to regulating common driveway activities. In a Garden City, NY, neighborhood last year police were called when two men began washing a new Volkswagen "in public view", which was against a local ordinance.

Everything new at the 2019 New York International Auto Show
Wed, Apr 24 2019Transcript: Welcome to the 2019 New York Auto Show. It's the last auto show, and so far it's my favorite of the year. We have a new buggy, compact pickup and trail ready SUV from Volkswagen. Ford brought the new Escape and a new Mustang performance variant, and we have a brand new Toyota Highlander and Subaru Outback. Let's go take a look around. We're here at the New York Auto Show with the Subaru stand. Normally the Subaru stand is just some white carpet and some show lighting. This year it's like we're in a national park. It's ... Frankly, I'm from Oregon. You're from Colorado. Yeah. It's making us feel at home. And in that way what better place and what better people to introduce this Subaru Outback which is pretty much the official car of Colorado and Oregon. Yeah. You actually have to buy a Subaru before they let you move to Colorado. Now instead of climbing up there and taking a look because we've been told we can't do that we're gonna go over there and check out another one. So the exterior, not that different. No. Looks exactly like an Outback. There's actually oddly a little more black plastic trim on the outside. A little too much for me. Right. It's interesting because it kind of slowly went away from that from the beginning because in the beginning the black plastic trim kind of made it an Outback, and now they're kind of bringing it back. I guess they needed to make it more macho. Right. Right. Now we're inside. Inside it looks pretty different. Swank. It's kind of swank for an Outback which has been pretty plain. Now this is the newly available vertically gigantic touch screen here. 11.6 inches. That is massive. This is how big it is when it's turned on ... just for the viewers. Now this is the onyx trim. So with that you get the black mirrors, the black wheels. This upholstery is special to the onyx, so it's gray and black and you also have this green stitching. Yeah, I like this accent stitching. It's kind of neat. Oh there's also a little tray there. Well this is a deep bin here. You can probably fit a phone. There we go. Almost. Yeah there are two USB ports. There's an additional two in the backseat. So this thing here you pop in the cup holder and it gives you a little more space or less space. These are really big, so if you have one of those Nalgene bottles I'm guessing it's going to fit in there. One of my complaints about my Subaru that I own now which is a naturally aspirated Crosstrek is that up in the mountains. It's slow?
Pickup sales may hit 2M units for first time since 2007
Sat, 21 Sep 2013Even as fuel prices creep back up, trucks are still a hot item among new-vehicle shoppers. To see how popular pickup trucks still are, you don't have to look any further than how much effort automakers put into the continual one-upmanship of their trucks. Backing this fact up, USA Today is reporting that the segment could top two million sales this year - a total not matched since 2007, though still far from the pre-recession, three-million-unit levels.
Through August, the Ford F-Series continues to be the segment leader with almost 500,000 units sold, but the Chevy Silverado (328,269), Ram 1500 (234,642), GMC Sierra (122,232) and Toyota Tacoma (110,293) are all seeing at least 20-percent sales increases, helping to account for around 1.44 million truck sales so far this year - not including possible outliers like the Suzuki Equator and Chevy Avalanche.
This year alone, General Motors has completely redesigned its fullsize trucks, Ram and Toyota have significantly updated their offerings, the next-gen Ford F-150 will be out next year and Nissan is promising an all-new Titan around the same time with an eventual Cummins diesel under the hood. It would seem, then, that truck sales are poised to continue their upward trend.
