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 |

Ford F-150 RaptorTrax is Ken Block's ultimate snowmobile
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Even when Ken Block isn't starring in the latest Gymkhana video or tearing up Global RallyCross courses, he's finding new ways to redefine "awesome" as it applies to motorsports. For evidence of this, look no further than Block's latest Monster-badged creation, the Ford F-150 RaptorTrax.
Billed as the "world's fastest snowcat," the RaptorTrax started life as a Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, and then a set of Mattracks were put in place where the truck's bead-locked wheels and meaty rubber once resided. The goal was to create a truck that made it easier - and presumably more fun - for Block and his buddies to hit the slopes on their snowboards. Aside from the obvious track upgrades, this truck also received a Whipple supercharger, full roll cage, Recaro seats, an in-bed snowboard rack, a roof basket and a rear-mounted winch - you know, just in case something or someone actually manages to get this truck stuck.
The RaptorTrax will be on display later this week at the Winter X Games in Apsen, CO, but we'll have to wait until next winter for a full Block-worthy video of the truck. A full press release from Hoonigan Racing Division is posted below, and a high-res image can be found by clicking above.
Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos
Thu, 12 Dec 2013With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.
2015 Ford Mustang potentially 'leaked' by Car and Driver
Mon, 28 Oct 2013Few upcoming debuts have been as eagerly anticipated as the all-new Ford Mustang that's expected to debut shortly as the Mustang's 50th anniversary year approaches. Well, Car and Driver magazine would have us wait no longer as it claims to be leaking Ford's new global pony car early.
Of course what you're looking at is just as likely to be a composite rendering based on what C/D projects the new Mustang to look like, but to our eyes it looks spot on. Combining design traits from the Evos Concept with classic Mustang signatures and Ford's Aston-inspired grille treatment, C/D's images - including a complete 360-degree digital navigator - show a Mustang not only for the modern era, but also for global distribution, taking a quintessentially American car to markets its predecessors were never designed for.
Those global considerations are expected to spell the demise of the outgoing Mustang's holdout live rear axle in favor of an independent suspension, and a slight constricting of the exterior dimensions. And thanks to a separate leak, coming from a digital survey, we have apparent confirmation of what will power the new pony car. While the existing 3.7-liter V6 and 5.0-liter V8 engines will apparently carry over with only slight adjustments in output, the survey confirms a new 2.4-liter turbo four will be positioned in between them, offering slightly more power than the V6 but markedly improved fuel economy for a manageable $560 premium over base.
