Vehicle Description
1969 Ford Bronco
The Ford Bronco has returned, introduced in July of 2020 and it was
not alone. Not one but two new Broncos will debut this year,
following up on a legacy that stretched from 1966 until 1996, when
the last big Bronco rolled off the assembly line. In its 30 years,
Dearborn's rugged 4x4 changed with the times, laying the foundation
for the SUVs that took over the range in the 1990s. Also, fun fact:
The carburetor of the Bronco featured special floats to battle fuel
flooding or starvation during off-roading in steep terrain. A
number of other systems were beefed up to make it able to handle
itself off-road, including a larger oil pan and a more capable fuel
pump.
For consignment a generation 1 version right out of 1969 with a
recent engine rebuild, and older respray and interior recovered
back in '06. This vehicle lives up to its name as it is unbroken on
the acceleration front, and a full press of the accelerator and it
is off like its namesake, we give you the 1969 Bucking Bronco. All
looking sweet in its orange garb, nifty wheels and overall
excellent condition. Saddle up!
Interior
Yeeee haaaaah! on the exterior paint which is a beautiful orange
this brush brumpy looking just fab with a few dents and dings but
paint is still excellent and deep. In nice contrast the shiny
stainless grille with its simple round headlights on either side
and a thin but effective shiny bumper below. All panels are
straight and rust free, and metal is nice and thick gauge for extra
toughness. Our example is without a roof, so you'll need to
currently limit your enjoyment to the warmer months or obtain a top
off the world wide web. With a windscreen that can tilt forward for
unlimited views, and a roll bar just in case you take a trial less
traveled and get wheels up, you will be protected. Tinted glass all
around and a tailgate that has a small storage area upon opening it
along with a rear seat. Another nicely trimmed thin bumper below
and side pipes which are peeking out the bottom at an angle it's
ready for the barrel race. 15 inch highly polished wheels wrapped
in 235/75R15 rubber on all 4 hooves it is awaiting the gate to
open!
Interior
Keep it simple would sum it up for this wild ride as we saddle up
we use a stirrup to climb aboard and we perch on white vinyl
buckets passing white door panels on our way inside. Up front is an
original dash with just the facts ma'am, on the instrument front 1
circular gauge cluster for this fine equine. An orange dash front
is topped by a near perfect black padded vinyl topper and fronted
by an original steering wheel with a 3 on the tree. Your 4 wheel
shifter is on the center on the floor. Near perfect black rubber
tough flooring floods the floors and in back in a sea of orange
ribbed bed metal is a passenger padded armed bench also in white
vinyl. Surrounding paint and interior surfaces are all excellent
condition.
Drivetrain
They say never look a gift horse in the mouth, however we here at
Classic Auto Mall with our inquiring minds pay no attention to this
theory so we pop the hood and are met with pure bling and
horsepower! 302 cubes with an Edelbrock Performer 289 intake and
Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor aligned with the 3-speed manual
transmission will unleash this steed with unbridled power. A 3.50
rear axle is on the back and the tires may spin if you give it a
bit too much giddy-up..
Undercarriage
Up on our lift we can inspect the belly of this beast and we note
solid full frame construction, no rust, and all looking simple and
good to go. Trailing arm and coil springs for the front suspension,
and leaf springs for the rear, combine with disc brakes upfront and
drums on the back, and a Magnaflow exhaust to produce a robust
engine sound as you take her through the dressage of the back roads
and trails.
Drive-Ability
The orange called me and I had to take it for a ride. It did not
disappoint and was the most fun I've had driving the many cars in
our inventory here in a while. An awesome kick is had with a press
of the accelerator, plenty of straight bias free whoa on the solid
braking, and able to hug any trail easily and with sure-footedness.
The gauges around the speedo cluster were deemed inoperable, but I
was not watching this at all!
Plenty of thoroughbred power, the sure footedness of a mountain
goat, and looks to attract attention like a Clydesdale, this fine
example of the Ford Bronco from 1969 is just a load of fun to drive
and looks great while doing it. If you are in the market for a
classic 4x4 use some horse sense and stop by Classic Auto Mall and
check this one out.
