For Sale: 1971 Ford Bronco in Calverton, New York

1971 Ford Bronco Coyote V8 Restomod with Krawlers Edge Chassis, Cognac Leather Interior, Dark Green Why This Car Is Special The first-generation Ford Bronco ran from 1966 through 1977, and the 1971 model sits squarely in what many collectors consider the sweet spot of the lineup. By 1971, Ford had refined the Broncos sheetmetal and trim details from the original 1966 design, while still keeping the compact, short-wheelbase body that made it one of the most capable factory 4x4s of its era. That 92-inch wheelbase shorter than anything Ford would produce under the Bronco name after 1977 gave the early Bronco a tight turning radius and a light overall weight that translated directly into off-road agility. It also gave it a proportioned, upright silhouette that has aged in exactly the way classic trucks tend to it looks better today than it did when it was new. What you have here is a 1971 Ford Bronco that has been transformed into a high-investment restomod. The body retains its correct first-generation profile and sheetmetal character, but everything underneath and inside has been rebuilt to a standard that the original factory never attempted. The powertrain is Fords own 5.0L Coyote V8, the same engine family that powers modern Mustang GTs and has earned a reputation for both reliability and power output. The chassis is a purpose-built Krawlers Edge unit. The suspension is coilover up front and a triangulated 4-link in the rear, with Bilstein shocks at each corner. The braking is handled by a full Wilwood disc system all around. Air conditioning is fitted. The interior is finished in cognac brown leather from the dashboard cap to the door panels to the rear bench. This is not a driver-quality restomod with rough edges. The level of execution throughout places it in a different category. First-generation Broncos particularly those from 1966 to 1977 have seen sustained collector demand for over two decades, and values for high-quality restomod examples have climbed steadily as clean, original trucks become harder to find. The combination of a correctly proportioned early body, a modern fuel-injected Ford V8, and a fully engineered chassis makes this 1971 Ford Bronco a usable vehicle rather than a garage piece.

The Coyote is a DOHC, 32-valve V8 that Ford introduced in the 2011 Mustang GT and has continuously developed since. Pairing it with an automatic transmission makes this Bronco practical to drive in traffic without sacrificing anything on the trail or the highway on-ramp. This is the correct engine choice for a build like this it keeps the powertrain all-Ford, maintains excellent parts availability, and produces power that is proportional to the suspension and brake work done on the rest of the vehicle. The foundation underneath is a Krawlers Edge chassis, which replaces the original stamped-steel frame with a purpose-engineered structure designed specifically around the first-generation Bronco body. Up front, coilover suspension replaces the original twin I-beam setup, giving the front axle proper geometry and travel for both on-ro WeBe Autos Specializes in Marketing and Advertising Muscle, Classic, Vintage and Specialty Cars.
