1978 Ford Bronco on 2040-cars
Woodland, Washington, United States
|
So...this 1978 Ford Bronco is that one owner 72,000 mile Bronco you could only hope to find. It was ordered back East by the original owner and brought out to Portland, OR in 1982 and has lived her since in an inside storage inviroment. The original owners wife donated it when her husband became ill. I was fortunate enough to be able to obtain it. I have been hunting for Bronco's as a hobby for years. I travel for work and for me, it is all about the hunt to find these Bronco's in great condition because most of them have been around the mountain a time or two. I have talked to the original owners wife and can put you in touch with her.
The Interior in this Bronco is a 9 out of 10, only because one can always find something wrong with anything. Factory black and silver Vinyl seats. Factory roll bar and air conditioning. The only the thing the interior does not have is tilt wheel and cruise control. All gauges and instruments work as new. Factory AM//FM Stereo. When you take this out of park to drive it feels as though the linkage isn't even connected because of the newness of the Bronco. When you unlock the doors with a key you can feel the mechanism is still greased from factory, nice and smooth. It is simply impresseve. Looking under the dash all moldings and carpet are as new. Closing the doors is a simple click and they latch. The original owner has added those "old man" add ons. Air pump with air horn under the hood (not working). Fog light for backing up and indicating lights so if your lights are on you are aware of it. Factory push bar with factory fog lights. Double Shocks, Dual exhaust, headers and tow hitch. This is a trailer special from the Factory, therefor it has an oil bath air cleaner and an added oil transmission cooler. The Bronco sat for 3 years. I installed a new fuel pump and have I have been smiling every since because driving this Bronco reflects is mileage and condition. The paint is original and the patina on the paint is somewhat confusing because above the molding it is faded but will easily rub out and shine. I can't bring myself to doing that because of the originality of the Bronco. The hood is faded in spots to the underprimer. All chrome molding, grill, headlight rings and chrome bumpers are outstanding. A rare thing in itself. The chrome window gimp molding is in unbelievable condition. There are brand new 33.1250.15 BFG All Terrain's that I have put on the Bronco. Unfortunately, the 10 X 15 Aluminum slots are new wheels from 1978 that I can not replace, therefor I am keeping them. In place I have 10 X 15 chrome spokes that are in outstanding condition. (can submit photos if needed) This is that rare one owner Bronco with original miles. Believe me there will be no disappointments with this Bronco. If you have any questions please contact me. ********Check my my feedback and you will see the prior Bronco's I have sold have had 100% feedback************ |

Ford's official Euro aftermarket partner Mountune coming to US
Tue, 06 Aug 2013Now that we're getting a steady stream of Ford's European offerings, the aftermarket world is finally starting to catch up as well. UK-based aftermarket tuning company, Mountune has just announced that it will be setting up shop in California to provide high-performance and racing parts for Ford vehicles including the Focus ST and Fiesta ST.
Mountune lays claim to being Ford's "official European tuning partner," and US buyers will soon have access to these parts through Ford dealerships and with a Ford Racing warranty. Speaking of Ford Racing, Mountune also says that it will be working with Ford's in-house team to develop future components for both street and track. There are no specifics as of yet for which products will be offered here, but the company plans to launch a US-specific website later this month with more information.
2015 Ford Mustang fuel economy ratings leaked
Thu, 21 Aug 2014Thinking about buying a new Mustang, but want to know what kind of fuel economy it'll get? Well we have our first indication as the pony-car enthusiasts over at Mustang6G.com have gotten a hold of the Monroney window stickers for a few of the new 2015 Mustang models.
Although the V8 model is not among them, we can now see how the EPA has rated those models with a half dozen pistons or less. The Mustang EcoBoost with the turbo four and a manual transmission has been rated at 22 miles per gallon in the city and 31 on the highway. The V6 manual gets 17 city and 28 highway, while the V6 automatic squeezes out a bit more in the city at 19 mpg but carries the same 28 highway rating.
By way of comparison, the latest Chevy Camaro with the V6 and a stick shift gets the same 17/28 EPA rating as a similarly equipped new 'Stang, and the V6 automatic Camaro gets 18/27 (slightly behind the Ford, but if you opt for the Camaro 2LS with its V6, automatic and 2.92 rear axle ratio, you'll be looking at 19 and 30).
Ford updates Power Stroke diesel V8, strengthens F-450, tweaks King Ranch
Thu, 26 Sep 2013Ford is giving its F-Series Super Duty trucks some upgrades for 2015, and we're happy to say that one of them is an improved Power Stroke diesel V8. Also, Ford is strengthening the top-of-the-line F-450 to handle more abuse. And if wild west-style luxury is your thing, the automaker has performed minor cosmetic updates to its King Ranch Edition trucks, as well.
The turbocharged 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 is currently rated at 400 horsepower and 800 pound-feet of torque, and Ford only tells us the new and improved Power Stroke can "produce power beyond today's" engine. What, then, did Ford actually improve upon? First, the Blue Oval swapped in a new, larger turbocharger. The new Garrett GT37 turbine unit is 72.5 millimeters in diameter, eclipsing the old GT32's 64-mm diameter piece. Ford states output increases with the new turbo setup, but since the new turbocharger operates at a lower peak pressure than the old one, the automaker was able to eliminate the wastegate system and reduce the engine's complexity. Ford even redesigned the turbo's oil and cooling lines to make the powerplant simpler. A byproduct of the larger turbo is better engine exhaust braking, which is controlled manually by a button on the dashboard.
Ford claims the upgraded diesel engine is more powerful, more robust, more efficient and more refined than before.
