This 1970 Ford Bronco custom SUV underwent a recent restoration.
Power comes from a rebuilt 302ci V8 engine that has been bored .030
over and fitted with a Turbo City fuel injection system,
competition camshaft, roller rockers and solid lifters. Additional
modifications to this 4-wheel drive SUV include an Edelbrock
manifold, Hooker headers, Flowmaster exhaust, oil pump, fuel pump,
23-gallon gas tank, Powermaster high torque starter and a 4-core
radiator. Power is sent to all four wheels by a 4-speed manual
transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Additional equipment
includes an updated wiring harness, Tom Wood's driveshaft,
Centerforce clutch and Ford Trac-Lok limited-slip differentials in
the front and rear, along with a Dana 44 front axle with 4.10 gears
and a Ford 9-inch rear axle housing with 4.10 gears out back.
Originally finished in Acapulco Blue, the truck was recently
refinished in Royal Blue Metallic and features a white fiberglass
half-cab hardtop and fender flares. Also includes a ProtoFab
RockSolid front bumper with an integrated Badland 9,000-pound winch
with a roll cage, removable side steps, diamond plate lower body
trim and a stainless-steel exhaust system with dual outlets. It
rides on polished 16-inch alloy wheels wearing 35-inch BFGoodrich
Mud-Terrain T/A tires with 2-inch wheel spacers. The suspension has
also been modified with a James Duff 21-inch long-travel kit, which
includes extended swing arms, progressive front coils, rear springs
and dual shocks at all four wheels. Additional modifications
include a 3.5-inch suspension lift and a 2-inch body lift. Braking
is managed by a Wilwood master cylinder with power-assisted discs
at all four corners, and the truck is equipped with power steering.
The cabin features a Vintage Air system, custom reclining bucket
seats upholstered in gray vinyl and a full cage and Line-X coating
from the tailgate to the firewall. Additional interior equipment
includes black carpeting, Simpson 5-point seat belts, a fire
extinguisher, a center-mounted CB radio, an AM/FM/CD stereo and a
center console with integrated cup holders. The aftermarket
three-spoke steering wheel frames a 100-mph speedometer with
integrated gauges for charging status, fuel level, coolant
temperature and oil pressure. Aftermarket gauges are mounted to the
steering column and dashboard. Includes matching full-size spare,
Hi-Lift 60-inch jack, a binder full of records dating back to 2001
and a Deluxe Marti Report. Estimated 12,000 miles on the documented
overhauling of the engine in 2020.
