1974 Ford Bronco 4X4

Description

The 1974 Ford Bronco has been given all the right investment to deliver a strong-running and sharp-looking 4x4. That means extra power from the V8, four-wheel disc brakes, an upgraded interior, and vibrant paint that all combine to make this both sporty and intimidating.

The trim tag tells us this Bronco was born in Limestone Green, and the color today seems to take that as inspiration for its modern vivid metallic finish. This nice mixture of vintage and upgraded sets the right tone for this Bronco. You have the right vintage pieces, like nice chrome bumpers, a full-size-spare on a swing-away mount, and even the fender appear uncut. But there's a smoothness to the presentation that lets you know the investments here were quite thoughtful. After all, the hardtop rarely looks this smooth, and the metallic gunmetal gray color stands out nicely. And there's an enhanced speedy style with Shelby-style twin scoop hood, hood pins, wide dual exhaust tips, and 17-inch American Racing wheels to let you know it wants to be a driver's classic.

The interior continues the upgraded style while still keeping the right vintage fundamentals. The front seats have been upgraded to high-back buckets with large headrests, plenty of bolstering, and stylish but water-resistant vinyl. It has added comfort with an armrest center console, cup holders, and an upgraded AM/FM stereo with USB and Bluetooth. There is even a custom LED interior light setup. Thanks to the Grant GT sports steering wheel and the upgraded Dakota Digital gauge package, you have a better command position. And, of course, as a true first-gen Bronco, there's a big appeal in knowing you have a removable hardtop to have a capable SUV that's also a cool cruising convertible.

The engine bay has the clean look of a solid investment. We like how the blue on the motor and vintage callouts want to make this look like its classic powerhouse. But those Ford Racing valve covers help tell the real story. Dig deeper into this 302 cubic-inch V8, and you'll spot terrific power upgrades, like Edelbrock E-Street aluminum heads, an Edelbrock Performer intake, and an Edelbrock AVS2 four-barrel carburetor. It also has good supporting components like an MSD ignition and painless wiring. And a nice set of headers add power and rumble as they feed the dual exhaust. The good ground clearance, Rancho shocks, and Dana 20 two-speed transfer case mean true 4x4 ability. But the Bronco also had the right suspension to earn a good street reputation. And the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and upgraded four-wheel power disc brakes are all part of this nice cruiser feeling.

This Bronco is stylish, capable, vintage, upgraded, and awesome. It makes for a distinct 4x4 that is memorable everywhere it goes. Call now!
