1966 Ford Bronco Half-cab: Beautifully Restored on 2040-cars
Carlsbad, California, United States
|
FIRST YEAR of the V8 Bronco. Removable half-cab makes it even more rare. Completely uncut, unaltered original '66 Bronco repainted with original Caribbean Turquoise color in EXCELLENT CONDITION. Restored to its original condition, the only exception being a rebuilt bored-out 302 c.i. V8 block plus engine upgrades vs. the original 289 c.i. V8 completed about 500 miles ago.
Clean title, no wrecks, no rust, 4 WD. Original three speed on the floor. New suspension, new brakes, new shocks, new tires (including spare). The engine has an Edelbrock intake manifold with a four-barrel carburetor, new exhaust headers, and new exhaust system and mufflers. The valve covers are old-school Mickey Thompson. New power steering, coil, and fuel pump as well. Full restoration completed by the masters at Beach City Broncos with excellent paint. Rear rumble seat with all three seats reupholstered, heavy duty roll bar repainted black, bikini top, and trickle charger. This is a great value for the first year early Bronco in excellent condition. Exterior in near perfect condition with absolutely no dings, dents, or scratches. Half-cab top also repainted white without a scratch. A true classic collector's vehicle that will continue to increase in value. Full restoration began in 2009 and was just completed with the following work performed: -Original turquoise exterior color (code 12876) -Suspension, 6 Ranchero shocks, brakes, tires -Rebuilt bored-out 302 Ford V8 engine, hoses, belts, etc. -4 barrel carburator, headers, exhaust system -Power steering -Ignition coil -Electric fuel pump -Fuel sending unit/gas tank sensor on main tank -Voltage regulator -Fuel gauge -Window gaskets, including vent window and all window seals -Dash gauge cluster -Rubber hood bumpers -Signal switch -Gaskets for around doors, above windshield, below top in rear, rear glass gasket -Window regulators -Ignition switch -Exhaust pipe, muffler, tail pipe -Clutch -Both gas tanks -Water pump -Reupholstered fabric insert front and rear seat This is a nearly flawless restoration with the following exceptions: -Independent windshield wipers work sporadically -AM radio works well but tuner dial doesn't move needle These are both items I refuse to replace with new parts. I have gone through much time and expense finding refurbished hardware for the entire restoration and I'm still on the hunt for these two items. **Odometer is in working condition but not sure if 88,000 mileage is accurate, as the Bronco is nearly 50 yrs old. Due to age and smog exemption, no odometer readings available through Carfax, Autocheck, etc. I have no reason to believe this isn't the accurate mileage but simply can not guarantee it (just with any other classic that isn't original owner).** Sale comes with approx. $30,000 in documented receipts (parts and PROFESSIONAL labor) organized in 3-ring binder. This doesn't include the hours I have put into the restoration or the original sales price of the Bronco. For questions please email. I am more than happy to take additional pictures of any square inch requested. Serious inquiries only please. |

Ford making Fusion production moves to challenge Camry on volume
Mon, 26 Aug 2013The Ford Fusion may already beat the Toyota Camry in terms of models offered, transaction price and sales increase so far this year, but if the Fusion wants to make a run at the title of best-selling car in the US, Bloomberg reminds us that volume is key. Opening a second production line at the Flat Rock, MI assembly plant will reportedly allow Ford to produce around 350,000 Fusions annually, which compares Toyota's ability to crank out 475,000 Camrys and Honda's capacity to build around 450,000 Accords.
For the Fusion, that's an extra 100,000 units compared to the car's current pace, and the article adds that the Fusion is "Ford's best shot" to regain the passenger car sales crown - a title it (or any other US automaker, for that matter) hasn't held since the mid-1990s. Despite hiccups with recalls and fuel economy numbers, the Ford Fusion is still red hot when it comes to sales. Fusion sales are up 13 percent so far this year (compared to a 0.6 percent decrease for Camry), and its average transaction price of $26,343 is about $2,300 more than its rival from Toyota.
The Fusion's popularity has helped Ford improve its sales in California; the Dearborn-based automaker has a market share of 18 percent in the state, which is just a fraction of a percentage behind Honda. And this popularity should continue as Ford ups Fusion production and expands the model lineup even further for 2014 with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine soon to become an option.
Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.
Entry-level F-150 now offers SuperCrew, Sport Package
Thu, 29 Aug 2013Ford has made a few notable tweaks to the lower end of its F-150 lineup, giving customers a more affordable version of the four-door SuperCrew body style. The popular SuperCrew could previously only be had on XLT models and above, but Ford has announced that 2014 F-150s with the base STX trim can get the more versatile body.
The STX SuperCrew brings the price of a four-door F-150 down from $34,525 to $33,145. Like the XLT SuperCrew, the STX will be available with the choice of a 5.5- or 6.5-foot bed, while a 5.0-liter V8 can replace the base 3.7-liter V6 for $4,425. Ford has not released pricing on the different bed lengths yet, but opting for the 6.5-foot bed on the XLT raises the price $1,240 and forces buyers into the 5.0-liter V8. We'd expect a similar arrangement on the STX.
The other big news for fans of affordable pickups is the addition of an STX Sport Package on the base-level truck. It adds 20-inch wheels, black exterior accents, black-and-gray cloth seats and decals on the truck's box. The Sport Package is available on all three of the STX's body styles, with Ford listing the price as $980 with current discounts.
