Vehicle Description
This custom 1969 Ford Bronco off-road SUV is built with modern
upgrades to improve reliability, power and drivability. Power comes
from a built 302ci small-block V8 engine with Edelbrock aluminum
heads, MSD electronic ignition and Edelbrock Pro-Flo electronic
fuel injection. A Toms Offroad Bronco HD radiator and shroud keep
the engine cool. Power is backed by a heavy-duty NV4500 5-speed
manual transmission with overdrive and an ATLAS II transfer case.
Both driveshafts were custom-made and balanced. The front
differential is a Dana 44 with ARB air locker, while the rear is a
Ford 9-inch with reversed pumpkin, posi-traction and a 4.56 gear
with Currie heavy-duty axles. Eight Rancho RS5000 shocks have been
installed. This Bronco has a heavy-duty front sway bar with quick
release for extra capability off-roading. It has power steering and
extra-beefy tie rods, while the rear suspension is equipped with
traction bars. Stopping is provided by 4-wheel power disc brakes.
This Bronco rolls on Mickey Thompson tires mounted on MRW beadlock
rims. This project started with an original Bronco with matching
frame and body VIN. The steel tub was modified to accept the
suspension upgrades and larger tires. A fiberglass cowl hood and
front fenders were installed with larger wheel openings. Flares
were added front and back. The front and rear custom steel bumpers
were fabricated. The rear of the vehicle can accommodate a
removable swing-away tire carrier that is not currently installed
but is included in the sale. The vehicle is also equipped with a
Warn 9500-pound winch and PIAA front lights. This Bronco includes
two tops: a complete Bestop soft-top with full doors and a bikini
top. The doors have zip-down or fully removeable window section to
make them half-doors. The exterior is finished in show-quality
black paint. The interior is fitted with MasterCraft bucket seats
and rear bench, with three-point safety belts up front and
four-point harnesses in the rear. A roll bar was added for extra
safety. An all-new wiring harness was installed with Dakota Digital
and AutoMeter gauges. A Kenwood CD player is hidden inside the
Tuffy lockable console and has a "Beat Box" roll bar-mounted
speaker box with map lights. The rearview mirror has an electronic
compass. It also features a custom steering column with tilt. An
under-dash heater was installed and the whole interior floor has
been coated with a protective textured liner. This Bronco also has
a shower hookup by the winch with quick-release nozzles. The water
is heated by a thermal heat exchanger and has a pressure pump and
switch mounted under the hood. It has approximately 7,800 miles
since build completion. ** PREVIEW
