1969 Ford Bronco Half Cab
5500 miles on a total off frame restoration. Every nut and bolt was restored or replaced. A new wiring harness was
installed. The entire frame was blasted and painted. The tub was stripped, primed and rhino-lined. No rust on this
46 year old beauty. Everything works as it supposed to.
Powered by a rebuilt 302 V8 with an Edelbrock 650 CFM 4 barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake manifold and Hooker
headers this Bronco has plenty of get up and go. The exhaust is a custom dual with magnaflow mufflers and it sounds
great...not too loud, but she has deep throaty growl when you get on her. An electric fan and wild horses aluminum
racing radiator, along with stainless air dam and fender well vents keep this Bronco running cool. Vintage Air A/C
was added for comfortable summer driving.
The 302 V8 delivers power to a rebuilt C4 automatic transmission mission with the period correct column shift.
Power assisted drum brakes on all 4 wheels provide stopping power, just as it did when she rolled off the assembly
line in 1969. 70,000 mile, Michelin LTX, 31 x 10.5 tires are mounted on 15" US Indy aluminum alloy slotted mag
rims, reminiscent of the Strope Broncos that raced the Baja in the early '70's. Those LTX radials are super quiet
and ride very smooth around town and on the highway.
The interior sports billet aluminum trim around the dash and pedals, custom billet aluminum door panels and has a
fully carpeted interior with sound deadening heat shield. A Tuffy, lockable steel center console with padded
leather armrest, drink holders and an Alpine car stereo with CD and Sirius-XM radio add some creature comfort. The
half cab roof is also fully headlined with temperature insulating and sound deadening headliner. The Procar Elite
leather seats provide luxurious all day comfort with lumbar support and bolsters. Three point seat belts are also
installed. The steering wheel a is custom one of kind creation from con2r truck restorations.
She runs great, handles very well, tracks straight under braking and is very comfortable to drive. Step bumpers
make it easy to get in and out and the roll bar looks great and adds a measure of safety. Show it, garage and cover
it and sit on your investment or drive it daily, whatever you choose this Bronco is ready.

Social media star Scott Monty leaves Ford
Thu, 22 May 2014It seems weird to think that an automaker could have a social media star, but Ford does. Or at least it did. Scott Monty, its Global Digital Communications Manager, led the company's team for almost six years and forged a reputation as being one of the most talented people in corporate social media. But the guru recently announced that he would be leaving the automaker for an undisclosed job elsewhere.
"I just decided the time was right. I am going to take a little time with my family, and I am going to start on a new adventure pretty soon," said Monty in an interview with AdWeek. He also explained a little about his theory of how companies should use social media. In his opinion, it should be a chance to go beyond standard marketing and build a relationship with people. Businesses need to have a broad focus for its online message, and using just one service isn't enough to be successful.
Under his guidance, Ford expanded its Facebook presence significantly. According to AdWeek, it launched the 2010 Explorer on the popular site. Also, when the company wanted to investigate selling electric models, it initially gauged the public's reaction on Facebook and then advertised them there first. Monty has been a major supporter of Twitter as well to broaden the company's communication with the public.
Ford Focus refresh shots leak ahead of Geneva
Sun, 23 Feb 2014In case you haven't been paying attention, Ford has been gradually redesigning its lineup to sport a familiar face. The Aston Martin-inspired grille shape debuted on the Fusion and was soon applied to the Fiesta. Even the front end of the new Mustang takes its cues from the same, and we're sure other models will soon be made-over to fall in line. The next on the docket? The Focus.
Set to be unveiled in little over a week at the Geneva Motor Show, the revised Focus has leaked out a tad early, revealing a mild facelift that bears that same trapezoidal grille with horizontal slats. Along with the new grille, the headlights, lower fascia and hood appear to have been reshaped. Around back there appears to be a new rear bumper and taillights, but otherwise the shape remains largely the same as the current model.
Expect the updates to be applied to all bodystyles offered around the world, including the hatchback, wagon and sedan. The engine lineup is expected to carry over largely unchanged, though the plug-in hybrid powertrain from the C-Max Energi could port over to the revised Focus. Plus Ford seems to have taken the opportunity to spruce things up in the cabin some. Check it out in the image gallery above and watch this space for the official announcement as we pack our bags for Switzerland.
Toyota tops Consumer Reports best, worst used car values
Tue, 18 Mar 2014We often mock Toyota for building boring, soulless cars, but a new study by Consumer Reports suggests that regardless of whether that's true, the company has some of the best used cars on the market. In its report on used cars from 2004-2013, the Japanese automaker had 11 vehicles among its brands on the list - more than any other automaker.
CR breaks the list down by cost and vehicle size, and Toyota has at least one entry at every price point and in nearly every segment. To score a recommendation, a vehicle had to perform well in the magazine's initial tests and score above-average reliability results. It also tried to only suggest cars with electronic stability control. Of the 28 recommended vehicles, Honda/Acura had the second most mentions at six, and Ford, Hyundai and Subaru managed two each.
The Detroit brands also made it to the list, but not in a positive way. Consumer Reports compiled a list of 22 vehicles it wouldn't recommend because "they have multiple years of much-worse-than-average overall reliability." General Motors had the most unrecommended models on the list at six, but Chrysler and Ford weren't far behind, with five cars each from their brands not making the grade. The full list of recommendations is available on CR's website.
