Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is happy to present this
single family owned 1967 Ford Bronco! Built as a direct competitor
to the International Scout, the original Ford Bronco was initially
offered in three cab types: a wagon, a pickup (discontinued after
1972), and an open model with cut-out filler panels instead of
doors. Though popular, the Bronco didn't have wide-spread utility
or mass appeal and production figures weren't nearly as high as
survivorship might lead to believe. Although the open Broncos are
the rarest, they aren't collectors' top choice since they are fair
weather friends. Instead, these SUV styled wagons are the most
prized. The four-wheel-drive Bronco's earned a loyal following from
new, and interest increased mainly in the central plains states and
the American west, which is where this Bronco started it's life.
This is a 289 CID V-8, 3-speed manual shift (on the tree) 4x4 that
is ready to be a daily driver or would be an ideal candidate for
taking it to the next level of restoration. The interior of this
Bronco was lovingly updated by dad some years back, but still shows
remarkably well! The seat covers, door panels, head liners &
carpets all show nicely, and the exterior paint glistens in the
sun. We have all seen what the trends have been on this 1st Gen
Broncos for the last decade or so, and there are no indicators that
is going to change anytime soon, due to the modest production
numbers (under 11,000), rust issues, and the tough life that most
of these Broncos had are the primary reasons why these 1st
generation Broncos are so rare nowadays and are highly sought-after
by collectors.
