THIS SWEET TURQUOISE '70 BRONCO IS ONE YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS OUT ON... VERY HIGH QUALITY BUILD ON AN ORIGINAL, RUST FREE, NEW MEXICO BODY!
There is no denying that the Early Ford Broncos are becoming highly sought after in the collector car market and rightfully so! These convertible 4-wheel drive rigs are a blast to drive and truly attract all the attention you can handle on the road and at the shows and cruise-ins. The Spring Car season is in full swing and Broncos are in high demand!! In fact we sold 5 awesome Broncos in the last month and finding the High Quality ones is the true challenge these days. There are plenty advertised that look pretty good in pics but finding the real gems is quite a different story. This Turquoise beauty is one of, if not the nicest one we have owned!! In fact we owned it a year ago and sold it to a great guy who had a beach house in Alabama and he wanted a cool Classic Bronco to have there to enjoy. Well, he called us recently to let us know he had sold his beach house and no longer had the space for the Bronco. He had loved it and really did not want to part with it but things happen. Without hesitation I told him we would love to have this Bronco back in our inventory. A few days later it arrived and it looks as nice as the day we sold it to him a year ago. I am quite certain this gorgeous '70 Bronco will draw quite a bit of interest and will sell quickly so do not hesitate if it catches your eye!!! This Bronco received a complete restoration about 5 years ago and is begging to be driven and enjoyed. If you have been searching for an amazing Early Bronco Classic that is ready to cruise to the beach, mountains, kids sporting event, or the next car show then get ready because "BIG TURQ" might just be the one you have been waiting for!!
The gentleman we originally acquired this '70 Bronco from was a true car enthusiast who had a summer home on Cape Cod. He thought this would be an awesome 4wd SUV to enjoy with his family in the summer time but when it arrived to him 3 years ago it was even nicer then he expected it to be and he treated it more like a show car then something he would just cruise around in. In fact he only put about 400 miles on this Bronco in the 3 years he owned it and, with several other toys in the garage, he could no longer justify keeping it so he decided it was time to pass it along to the next lucky owner.... maybe you!! This Bronco received an extensive restoration about 5 years ago that was done by a company in Oregon that specializes in Early Broncos. They had purchased this Bronco in New Mexico where it spent its whole life in a dry, rust free environment. It had all of its original body panels and was simply in need of a thorough cosmetic and mechanical restoration. A ton of money was poured in to the restoration and the end result is an amazing looking and driving 1970 Bronco that the next owner is going to be extremely pleased and proud to own. This is a Bronco you will be proud to take to any show or cruise-in and will surely win your share of trophies if that is something you enjoy. The entire drivetrain was completely rebuilt so this is also a Bronco you can get in, drive and enjoy!! I will do my best to provide enough large images, a video of the Bronco running, and an honest description to help you determine if this is the one to add to your stable!!! If you think it is, I highly recommend you call me to see if we can negotiate a price to get it in to your garage before the next car guy or gal does!! Sit back and enjoy!
"Big Turq's" body is in near flawless condition and the paint quality is fantastic and I would call it show quality although everyone in the hobby seems to have a different opinion on what constitutes show quality so I will simply say it is extremely nice and let you judge for yourself. This Bronco clearly lived in a dry rust-free climate and I was told it spent most, if not all its life in New Mexico prior to the restoration. The original paint was stripped down, body was etch primed and a two-stage professional paint job was performed. The restoration shop indicated that the Bronco had its original body panels with no sign of damage or accidents once the paint was stripped off and the body was disassembled for paint. Keep in mind this restoration was done 5 years ago, however, you would think it was just completed judging by the condition. The only flaws I noticed were a few small chips that were touched up on the top of the tailgate which most likely occurred when the hard top was removed. Body panels align extremely well and doors open and close easily and line up great. Bumpers, emblems and chrome trim look new. A very nice 4-point Family style roll bar was installed and the top rails were nicely padded. Custom Stainless trim pieces bolt of the bed rails for when the hard top is not being used which provides a nice finished look. This Bronco has a perfect, aggressive stance and look, and will definitely catch all the attention you can handle wherever you take it. Here is a walk around photo tour of the body: I personally think these Early Bronco Classics are best enjoyed with the hard top off but it is also nice to know that this sweet '70 does come with an original hard top that is in excellent condition if needed. As you will notice this hard top also has what is believed to be a rare, optional, factory luggage rack that is in great condition. We will ship the Bronco with the hard top on the truck for out of state buyers. We will also be including a White Bikini top that the new owner can use if desired as well. The windows in the hard top are a special glass called azuria which is supposed to keep out 95% of the direct heat and let in 65% of the visible light. The color also accents the color of the Bronco really nicely. Most people who buy these Broncos tend to remove the hard top and never use it. If that sounds like you just let us know and we will be glad to keep the hard top so it will not end up taking up space in your garage. Here is a look with the hard top installed.
Complimenting the beautiful Turquoise exterior is a custom light grey interior. Original front seats, door panels, and rear interior quarter panels are all covered in matching custom light grey color. The rear seat is an updated fold and tumble seat with seats belts. The front seats have three point seat belts installed for added safety. The interior floors were painted at the time of restoration with factory type insulation on the floor boards. Sound deadening mat was laid down in the rest of the interior and then a custom grey carpeting was installed. Great sounding Kenwood AM/FM/CD i-pod/mp3 stereo with remote was neatly installed in the dash and 4 Kenwood speakers were professionally installed in the rear quarter panels. There is also a CB located in the Tuffy Lock box center console although I am not sure if that works. There is also a new dash pad and the sun visors were dyed to match the interior. Custom Bronco steering wheel and Toms Bronco floor mats finish the interior off nicely. The dash was painted to match the interior and all of the gauges and lights appear to be working correctly. Overall the interior is in fantastic condition and ready for the shows. Here is a look inside: The engine bay hs been nicely detailed out as well and just about everything in the drivetrain of this sweet Bronco is new or rebuilt. The 302 was completely rebuilt and has a RV Cam for good low end power. There are less then 500 miles on the motor since it was rebuilt. Motor is topped off with a Holley off-road 390cfm 4bbl carburetor. All new distributor, cap, ignition, wires, belts, hoses, radiator and billet pulleys were installed at time of restoration as well. Nice dress up kit with Ford Racing Valve covers and original air cleaner. Great tone from the Magnaflow exhaust exiting the dual pipes that was done at restoration. Steering is a breeze thanks to the brand new delphi steering box and saginaw power steering pump. New Power brake system from Toms Bronco Parts was installed making stopping a breeze as well. The E-brake assembly was redone and works well. This Bronco pulls nicely though the gears thanks to brand new clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing and the rebuilt NP 435 4-speed Transmission. Dana 20 front transfer case and 9" rear end were also rebuilt. First gear is pretty much a granny gear which is great in those steep hill situations. This Bronco is fun to drive at all speeds and handles extremely well at highway speeds as well as on local roads. Suspension front and rear is tight and right thanks to all new components including tie-rods, knuckles and ball joints, 11-pack rear leaf springs, spring bushings, shocks all around and much more! This Bronco also has a great stance thanks to the 3 1/2 inch lift kit from Toms Bronco Parts and Pro Comp. This Bronco rides great thanks in part to the almost brand new set of Ultra Eagle II Alloy wheels wrapped in Wild Country 33x12.5x15 All Terrain Rubber. The spare is the same and mounted on the original spare tire holder. Undercarriage was highly detailed and painted to match and shows very nicely. Floorpans are all rock solid. This Bronco drives and handles beautifully and is ready to hit the roads, beach, or wherever you want to go... "Big Turq" is ready to go!!! Take a look and then be sure to listen to the short video to hear Big Turq start up and running.

On May-05-14 at 12:11:21 PDT, seller added the following information: It has been brought to my attention that in the video I mention it has front disc brakes. This is incorrect.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Concentrated ST Formula Proves Just As Potent
I'm not the jealous type... usually. But I will fully admit to being somewhat of a Pouty Polly when I read executive editor Chris Paukert's report after driving the then-new 2013 Ford Focus ST through the impossibly pretty southern French Alps region last June. I feel like a broken record saying this yet again, but hot hatchbacks hold a special place in my heart. And while I'm always giddy to drive any sort of small, turbocharged three- or five-door at home in Detroit, my jealousy was indeed piqued after hearing Paukert tell about the challenging yet breathtaking roads he encountered while driving the flamin' yellow Focus. You know, the sort of roads that, from above, look like carelessly drizzled lines of icing on the frosted Alpen caps.
Several months later, I found myself piloting a Focus ST just west of metro Detroit, pitting it head-to-head against one of Autoblog's perennial favorite cars, the Volkswagen GTI. It was fantastic - enough so that I fully stand behind my statement that in terms of balls-out performance, the Focus ST cannot be beat as far as today's front-wheel-drive hatches are concerned.
Ford using robot drivers to test durability [w/video]
Sun, 16 Jun 2013In testing the durability of its upcoming fullsize Transit vans, Ford has begun using autonomous robotic technology to pilot vehicles through the punishing courses of its Michigan Proving Grounds test facility. The autonomous tech allows Ford to run more durability tests in a single day than it could with human drivers, as well as create even more challenging tests that wouldn't be safe to run with a human behind the wheel.
The technology being used was developed by Utah-based Autonomous Solutions, and isn't quite like the totally autonomous vehicles being developed by companies like Google and Audi for use out in the real world. Rather, Ford's autonomous test vehicles follow a pre-programmed course and their position is tracked via GPS and cameras that are being monitored from a central control room. Though the route is predetermined, the robotic control module operates the steering, acceleration and braking to keep the vehicle on course as it drives over broken concrete, cobblestones, metal grates, rough gravel, mud pits and oversize speed bumps.
Scroll down to watch the robotic drivers in action, though be warned that you're headed for disappointment if you expect to see a Centurion behind the wheel (nerd alert!). The setup looks more like a Mythbusters experiment than a scene from Battlestar Galactica.
Ford to update Sync, MyFord Touch software... again
Wed, 07 Aug 2013Ford hasn't had the best luck with its MyFord Touch and Sync systems, as the finicky infotainment system has been subject to a critical whooping while customer issues have helped sink Ford's IQS scores. The automaker has made a concerted effort, though, to try and fix MyFord Touch. And while the results have been mixed, The Blue Oval is hoping its latest free update, set to go live next week, will make things better.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the new system promises streamlined voice commands with fewer levels between opening query and actual result. Ford is also addressing where certain options are selected on the touchscreen. Rather than working one of the four quadrants on the homescreen, users will be able to select anywhere within the quadrant to make adjustments.
While it might only be a band-aid for MFT's problems, the fact that Ford is still trying to improve it is a promising sign. It's going to take more than just this update to address the system's ills, though.
