Up for sale is my 96 Ford Bronco. The last year for the Bronco so it has the mass air flow 351 instead of speed density system. The 351 runs smooth and is very quiet. Has no exhaust leaks plenty of power. I really do not want to sell it but I have lost my garage space and it is to nice to sit outside and rot.. The Bronco originally belonged to the Washington DC Police dept.. It is too clean to be a fleet vehicle so it must have been a reserve unit.. The wiring for the lights and siren is still under the dash. There is a small hole in the roof where the wiring came through for the light bar. As far as I am aware ford never made a Police package for the Broncos. This one has a very large factory trans cooler and what feels like a shift kit in the trans..I have owned several Broncos in the past and all of them had the small Trans cooler, never saw one from the factory with the larger one like used on the F250-350 trucks.. Also having the 5.8 it may have been a police package or heavy duty package.. Has the quad shocks with front and rear sway bars as well. The tires are practically new and have less than a 1000 miles on them. new walker quiet flow exhaust, All new moog ball joints and tie rods with grease fittings.. New oil pan from ford, "original one the paint was flaking off and started getting rust on it" New fuel tank, New axle "u" joint with grease fittings. new Autolite copper core spark plugs,Ford Motorcraft battery was replaced 2 years ago.. Any maintenance item on the truck that needed replaced I have tried to stay with factory parts.. all power accessories work.. Ice cold A/C, Rear power window goes up and down smoothly ..Currently it has mobil1 synthetic oil with motorcraft oil filter with 2000 miles since last oil change.. The interior is not sun faded and the exterior paint is original with no fade as well. I have always used floor mats to protect the carpet.. I am a non smoker so it has never been smoked in. When I first purchased the truck there was a ford emblem and a bronco emblem on the right rear fender that somebody glued on.. I removed them and they left some adhesive that will need to be removed.. I did not want to try myself, was afraid of messing up the paint.. There are some blemishes as follows: The center consoles blue paint is flaking off showing the original tan color.. I think that is the way it came from the factory.. prob ran out of the blue ones at the factory since this is the last year of the bronco.. The grille has a crack in it as shown, There is a dent right behind the pass side tail light.. there is some rust on the tailgate bottom and the pass side door, There is a small ding on the hood, and on the drivers side door. In certain lighting conditions you can see a outline where the police decals were.. I am sure with a good wax job they will dissapear.. there is a small dent above the tail light.. Overall this is a clean low mileage example of a classic suv that Ford should have never stop manufacturing.. The truck is not museum quality but very clean for its age,I have tried to describe all the major defects, look over the pictures and feel free to ask questions.. sold as-is with no warranties..

Ford will build Hackmobile out of Transit Connect Wagon
Fri, 27 Dec 2013What you see in the above image is a rendering of the Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon. What is that? It's a "mobile fabrication and hacking unit" that includes tools for metal- and woodworking, 3D and electronics fabrication, a three-axis CNC machine called "The Fabber," a video projector and screen, an air compressor, an 84x48-inch work surface that folds out like a Murphy bed and oh so much more. When not in use, all of the implements fold neatly into the back of Ford's award-winning van.
But perhaps the more important question is why is that? Because Make Magazine held an Ultimate Maker Vehicle Challenge in conjunction with Ford in which ten teams created were charged with creating "the ultimate Ford Transit Connect Wagon for the do-it-yourself enthusiast." Team Twin Cities Maker won the competition with the Hackmobile, and in addition to winning $10,000, Ford has declared it's actually going to build the thing - which is great, because if they can actually engineer a road-legal Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon as envisioned, the inevitable A-Team movie reboot might need to think about including it.
Check out the video below for a cheeky walk-through of the Hackmobile, and get all the particulars in the press release below that.
First 500 European Ford Mustangs reserved in 30 seconds [w/video]
Thu, 29 May 2014We're pretty sure that any initial concerns Ford had about selling the redesigned Mustang in Europe have been lessened considerably, after the first 500 Euro-spec 2015 Mustangs were been reserved in just 30 seconds. Moreover, 9,300 people attempted to snag one of the coveted orders for the all-new muscle car. Yes, Mustang, you should do quite well across the pond.
The registration event was held during the UEFA (pronounced yu-eh-fa) Champions League Final between Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid.
"We knew there was huge excitement building for the new Ford Mustang coming to Europe, but the response during the UCL Final was overwhelming," said Roelant de Waard, VP of marketing, sales and service for Ford's European outfit. "It was a truly special way to kick off the Ford Mustang era in Europe."
How that awesome Mustang R/C car chase vid was made
Tue, 06 Aug 2013We've reported on a few R/C car chase videos in the past. One in particular that stands out as a favorite is Zach King's "The Cliché RC Action Chase." It featured a pair of Ford Mustang coupes racing through a cardboard city, plowing into outdoor patios and busting through construction zones. It was wonderfully creative and fun to watch, yet we know there was more to its creation than a bunch of guys fooling around with a camera one afternoon.
Turns out we were right, as evidenced by this video produced by Ford that takes us behind the scenes of Zach's creation. The young filmmaker explains why he chose the Mustang to star in his video, as well as how the cardboard sets were created, what equipment they used for shooting and what it was like when his video went viral. Ford found the young filmmaker and produced the followup as part of its Mustang Countdown video series, which will see a new video about the Mustang culture released every week until the original muscle car's anniversary on April 17, 2014.
Want to make an RC chase video of your own? Yeah, we do too. Watch the behind-the-scenes video below (you can refresh yourself on the mini feature film, too) before you get started.
