1966 Ford Bronco, Uncut, Original, 1 Owner on 2040-cars
Roanoke, Virginia, United States
|
I'm selling my 1966 Ford Bronco. I bought this from the original owner 4 years ago. I have the original Virginia title that was issued in 1966 when the previous owner bought the truck, and a clear current title. Also have the original owner's manual that was issued to the first buyer. When I got the vehicle, the owner was 93 years old and not driving anymore, has since passed on. He had the vehicle parked under a carport, and although its got some "cancer" in the quarters and floor, its in generally good condition, enough that it will pass state inspection to drive on the highway. There are patch panels in the floor, and along the rockers, not well done but sufficient for inspection or driving. The door posts are sound, as is the windshield frame, and the dash pad is near perfect. 170 six cylinder, three speed on the column, no radio, vacuum wipers. The 4wd works just fine, and the exhaust has been replaced. It has 4 new Goodyear Wrangler tires on it, they've got less than 500 miles on them. The car runs and stops, heater works, wipers don't too well just like all vacuum wipers :-) There's not much else to tell about this thing mechanically, they are pretty simple machines. This 170 engine runs fine, although it does have an occasional wrist pin peck on #2 cylinder. Been doing that for years, and if you're going to restore it, that isn't a big deal anyway, still runs just fine. If you're wondering about the paint, the PO rolled that nice brown latex on it to match his boat :-) The original color was red, which is peeking out in a few places where the latex has peeled off. I'm not interested in trades, I have too many cars already, that's why I'm selling this one. There's no warranty, none. It runs, it stops, it needs to be properly restored. Enough said. I will deliver this car via rollback carrier to anywhere in the lower 48 states for $2.00 per mile, round trip. You can fly in and drive it home, but I don't recommend it unless you have lots of gas money. This has 4:11 gearing in the differentials, and at 50 MPH you're tach-ing about 4000 RPM's so its not very interstate friendly :-) Email with questions, NO, I'm not taking more pics of anything so don't ask. Its a basic Bronco, and that's about the extent of it. I prefer a paypal deposit of $1000 when the auction ends, and cash for the balance when you pick up the Bronco. If you plan to use a cashiers check, it will have to be verified and cleared by my bank before you take the car, so DO NOT plan to show up with one and think you'll be driving it away, ain't gonna happen, just too much check fraud, sorry. Cash is king. If you mail a check, plan to pick up in about 15 days from that. Happy bidding

NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey
Wed, 09 Jan 2013The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.
2015 Ford Focus sedan shows its fresh face in New York
Wed, 16 Apr 2014That handsome fellow you see above is the 2015 Ford Focus sedan. We liked the looks of the 2014 Focus, and the updates for 2015 only improve things to our eyes, with the adoption of the Aston Martin-inspired grille that has been permeating Ford's lineup these last few years. Sweeping, slightly bulbous headlamps join a revised, more demure lower grille opening to round out the styling updates up front. The rest of the car's look is just slightly massaged, including new taillamp clusters that look much like they did last year.
New for 2015 is the availability of Ford's 1.0-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine, mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission. There's also a new SE Sport Package that adds more aggressive suspension tuning, paddle shifters (when equipped with Ford's six-speed dual-clutch automatic) and a few body kit bits and pieces. Rounding out the mechanical changes are an updated electronic steering rack that promises better feel, suspension tweaks to make the ride more comfortable and some software updates designed to make the dual-clutch gearbox better behave itself.
In addition, inside there are a few interior upgrades, as well as some added comfort and safety tech that includes available blind-spot detection and lane-keeping assist, along with other more incremental changes that all add up to a better vehicle. We suggest you check out the official press release below for all the details, but not before scrolling through our image gallery of live shots above.
Ford is building this sweet back-to-basics SUV in Brazil
Mon, 02 Jun 2014We're use to forbidden fruit teasing us in Europe. Hatchbacks and diesels from Renault, Citroën, Peugeot, Skoda, SEAT and Alfa Romeo have been a regular torment that we've grown accustomed to over the years. This vehicle, though, is one piece of forbidden fruit we aren't entirely sure we can get over. We need it.
It's called the Ford Troller T4, and if you accidentally read that as either "reborn Ford Bronco" or "Americanized Land Rover Defender," we wouldn't be rushing to correct you. It's a basic, badass SUV, and is the first new vehicle to come from Troller since Ford gobbled it up in 2007. For those with longer memories, you'll recognize this vehicle from the concept that preceded it, the Ford T-R Concept. The production model remains remarkably true to the T-R, as well as past Trollers, but it's a slightly more modern look overall, with LED taillights, contrasting colors
You'll have to bear with us on the details, as we've been forced to rely on the notoriously literal Google Translate to convert the original Portuguese into English, which means some of the details were lost along the way.
