1989 Ford Bronco, 302, 6" Lift, Only 15k Miles Since Frame Off Restoration on 2040-cars

Year:1989 Mileage:15050
Location:

Hahira, Georgia, United States

Hahira, Georgia, United States

Bought this truck about 5 years ago, a complete basket case. Wiring harness was completely, burnt, spliced, hacked, etc., throttle body and intake was completely shot, the dash guages and components were disconnected, no way of telling mileage, water temp, pressures, etc. Bought it to do a frame off restoration with my son, who was 13 at the time. Took a couple of years and about $16,000, but made a nice truck for him to drive to high school. He's graduated now and going off to college, so we are going to sell this truck and get him something smaller and more economical.

We completely disassembled the truck, had the engine and transmission professionally rebuilt, since the engine bay was in such bad shape we stripped all the wiring/electronics/throttle body and went with a new painless wire harness and Holley 600 cfm carbuerator, stripped, pressure washed and re-painted the frame, installed a 6" skyjacker suspension lift, new wheels and tires, new paint, billet grill, KC off-road lights on front brush guard, new carpet and new Auto Meter mechanical guages.

This truck is a steal for the minimum asking price. There is only 15,000 miles since the rebuild, most parts on this truck are new. There are a few issues that need to be addressed: The trim around the windshield is missing, the A/C is not hooked up, reverse lights do not work, some interior trim pieces are missing, small dent in drivers door, some knicks and scratches here and there, ignition switch on steering column is loose (new summit racing steering column), small items that were set aside when my son started driving and were forgot about. This truck just needs a good cleaning and some TLC. I must apologize for my son, we have been getting alot of rain and we live on a dirt road, that somewhat explains the dirty engine bay and undercarraige. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Truck is being sold as is, where is, with no warranties expressed or implied.

Toyota sells six of 10 of hybrids in California

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

In an apparent shot back at Ford's increasing market share of electrified vehicles and claim that it accepts more Prius trade-ins for its own hybrids than any other car, Toyota has flexed a muscle and played the numbers game to put the Blue Oval in its place.
Leaning on its hybrid market dominance in California, the Japanese automaker stated that six out of 10 hybrids sold in the Golden State are Toyota models. And it keeps coming: Year-to-date through May 2013, Toyota sold five times more hybrids than Ford. One of every two hybrids in California is a Prius model. In addition, Toyota notes that it has sold 1.5 million Prius vehicles in the US, 90-percent of which are still on the road today.
Want more? We'll let Bill Fay, Toyota's group vice president and general manager of sales lay the smack down:

2016 Ford Taurus to ride atop reworked Fusion platform

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

Generally, cars get bigger and heavier as they get older. That's why it looks so ridiculous when you park a classic Mini next to a modern version. The same can be said of the Corvette, the BMW 3 Series, Porsche 911 and, of course, the Ford Taurus. In the Taurus' case, though, that size has become a liability, particularly because the big brute isn't nearly as sizable on the inside as it is on the out.
For 2016, Ford is aiming to rectify that. According to Edmunds, the 2016 Taurus will ride on a stretched and widened Ford Fusion platform. Ford is expecting this move to go a long way in trimming the Taurus' ample body fat.
"The problem with today's Taurus is that it is overweight and even the high performance SHO is not really competitive," said a source that spoke to Edmunds on condition of anonymity. The 365-horsepower SHO variant, "actually weighs about as much as the stretched Audi A8 L. Of course, Audi uses an extensive amount of aluminum, but it is a much bigger car."

Ford Mondeo classes up with premium Vignale trim

Wed, 11 Sep 2013

Back in the day, Vignale was a carrozzeria of the highest order, alongside the likes of Pininfarina, Bertone and Zagato. But like Giugiaro-ItalDesign and Ghia, it has since been subsumed into a larger auto group. Ford ended up with it under its umbrella when it took over De Tomaso, and has since used the moniker for a number of concept cars. Now the name is back in the form of a new upscale sub-brand for the European market.
The first new model to receive the Vignale treatment is the Mondeo, which Ford unveiled here at the Frankfurt Motor Show in both sedan and wagon forms. Positioned above the Titanium trim, the Vignale model gets such special touches as chrome trim and a quilted leather interior, Vignale badges replacing any mention of the Mondeo on which it's based. It also gains an ownership experience - including free car washes for life! - to befit the upscale positioning.
Under the bright spotlights above the show floor, the Nocciola metallic brown paint might not be the most photogenic, but will likely give the Vignale edition a more premium look when it hits European dealers and roads in 2015. Whether it'll be worth however much Ford asks for it, however, remains to be seen. Scroll down below for the official press release.
