I bought this bronco from a good friend of mine who has bought, restored, rebuilt, and either sold or kept multiple broncos. Almost every thing you see now is from his work. The only updates I have done since then are: put in a new, larger radiator, a new electric fuel pump, installed the rear bench seat, and bypassed the fuel tank closest to the driver seat so that the main fuel line runs straight to the back tank.

It has: circuit painless wiring harness, custom paint job with door inserts, wildhorses front disc brake conversion, mallory ignition and distributor, 2" suspension and 2" body lift with 33" mud tires, and a full size 33" mud tire spare with mounting kit on the tailgate.

I have never taken it off road and only enjoyed back country road cruises all around! There are no doors or top, I did not get any when I initially bought it, which makes for very relaxing and breezy rides, I know my dog has really enjoyed those. And the bikini top gives you just enough relief from the sun and if you get caught in a rain storm.

My friend put the bumpers on the front and back that are on currently, along with a Warn winch. The winch is currently not hooked up, so I am not sure if it still works or not, looks nice though. Also, their are mounted KC lights on the front with covers. Both of these do work for extra lighting when you are out riding in the woods at night. The bronco also has rhino liner sprayed throughout.

Original steering is still hooked up, so there is no power steering but could easily be converted.

There are a few spots where the paint is chipping, but overall the paint job looks very nice and trust me, you will turn some heads driving it around.

USPS releases hot rod stamps to speed up your delivery

Sun, 08 Jun 2014

After one of the worst winters in recent memory for much of the country, summer is finally here. It's time to drop the top, open the sunroof or at least put down the windows and take a long drive. The United States Postal Service is celebrating the season's sun in automotive style with two new hot rod Forever stamps.
Both stamps depict classic '32 Ford hot rods. One shows the car from the front at a low angle in red (pictured above), while the other depicts the car from the back in black with flames running down the side.
To introduce the new stamps on their first day of availability, the USPS went straight to the source at the National Street Rod Association Street Rod Nationals in York, PA. They were unveiled by Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe, Car Crazy host Barry Meguiar and NSRA Special Events Director Jerry Kennedy.

A tribute to William Clay Ford

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

The passing of William Clay Ford has been a big event for the company he spent most of his life helping run. Ford spent 57 years working for his family's company. Considering the Blue Oval has been around for over 100 years, WCF's passing is the end of an era for the Dearborn-based manufacturer.
Ford's YouTube channel has issued a short memorial video highlighting the life of the longest-lived grandson of company founder Henry Ford. It follows William Clay from his time as a boy, showing him alongside his grandfather, through his younger years, and into his twilight, as the patriarch of the Ford family.
Take a look below for this touching memorial video on William Clay Ford.

What next for Alan Mulally?

Wed, 23 Apr 2014

Alan Mulally has emerged as a hero when it comes to American manufacturing. He came to Ford in 2006 after serving as head of Boeing's commercial aircraft division, streamlined operations, sold off the costly elements of its Premier Automotive Group and saved Ford from having to be bailed out by the federal government like its cross-town rivals Chrysler and General Motors did. But as we reported mere days ago, he's widely expected to step down from the chief executive's office at Ford shortly.
So what's next for one of the most successful executives in the business? Hard to say, but don't expect Mulally to disappear into retirement. Though he didn't ultimately take the top job at Microsoft, industry insiders expect to see him in another influential position - likely as a board director or even chairman of another company. (We say "another company" and not Ford because while Bill Ford may have stepped aside as CEO to bring Mulally on board in the first place, we don't see him giving up his chairmanship of the board also.)
Mulally has likely already lined up his next move, and could either announce what that move will be as soon as Ford confirms Mark Fields as his successor, or could wait awhile. Insiders speculate that he could leverage his transportation and aerospace experience into a position at General Electric or a major airline, his manufacturing expertise to benefit a company like Procter & Gamble or his management skills at a consultancy firm.
