Offered here today is the Holy Grail of Broncos! This is the highly sought after German made 2.9 Litre Inline 6 cylinder accompanied by a Japanese made Manual 5/speed transmission. (New in 1998).. This particular Bronco is from sunny NO RUST Quartzite Arizona. This is ONE NICE Bronco considering the year!! It drives exactly as one would expect and I am giving it a seal of approval for a long drive home!!! (This means that I would drive it long distances without worry of any known issues... It doesnt make me see the future:) The A/C blows cold and the Heat does not. I believe the core has been bypasssed, due to the fact that we dont need heaters here for more than a few weeks. We have the books and receipts, one of which is a complete Transmission Rebuild in 1998. I know a long time ago, but it still shifts GREAT!!! The owner was a retiree that had this on his hunting property. It was barn stored, but still has dust, paint fade, and such.. This is perhaps the ULTIMATE BARN FIND, for someone that does not want an $8,500 Bronco, but at the same time wants a NO RUST and Excellent running Example!!! Ask questions, and Bid to win. I will update ad as needed. Miles are Exempt due to being a 5 digit odo... READS 92,800... WHAT A SWEET FIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME!! VIDEO BELOW!!!

NOT AN INLINE 6.... V6.On Jan-09-13 at 16:18:39 PST, seller added the following information: The Ford Cologne 2.9L V6 is a 60° cast iron block V6 engine built by the Ford Motor Company in Cologne, Germany, hence the name. Over the years, the Cologne V6 was available with engine displacements of 1.8, 2.0, 2.3, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8, 2.9 and 4.0 litres. All except the Cosworth 24v derivative and later 4.0 litre sohc engines were pushrod overhead valve engines, with a single camshaft between the banks. Originally, the Cologne V6 was installed in cars intended for Germany and continental Europe, while the British "Essex" V6 was used in cars for the British market. Later, the Cologne V6 largely replaced the Essex V6 even for British-market vehicles. These engines were also used in the United States, especially in compact trucks. The 2.9 L shares the same basic design as the 2.8 L model, bar a few subtle differences. The camshaft is chain-driven rather than gear driven, so it rotates in the same direction as the crankshaft. The arrangement of the exhaust valves is different, eliminating the "Hot-Spot" that existed on the 2.8 L model. The cylinder heads also sport a more conventional three-port exhaust manifold. Output was rated at 140 hp @4600 rpm for the Light trucks (1986-92 Ranger & 1986-90 Bronco II) and 144 hp @4800 rpm for the Merkur Scorpio in the US market and anywhere from 150 to 160 hp for the European Market. Bore was 93 mm (3.7 in) and stroke was 72 mm (2.8 in) for a total displacement of 2.9 L (2935 cc/177 in³). In Europe, this engine was commonly fitted with the Bosch L-Jetronic fuel injection system, married to Ford's EEC-IV engine management. Because of this difference over the 2.8 L model, this version was a more popular candidate for after market modification (typically turbocharging) from such well known companies as Janspeed and Turbo Technics.On Jan-10-13 at 16:36:26 PST, seller added the following information: On Jan-10-13 at 19:41:10 PST, seller added the following information: Okay Bidders help me out here....
