The Ford Bronco marque bears legendary status. It was born out of the need to explore the great outdoors and provide the American consumer with a fresh perspective on what an off roader should be like. An ideal candidate for Bronco charm and personality is this 1966 Ford Bronco 302 that is located in California, with some surprises under the hood. Broncos are savvy investments too, so might as well grab one now whilst it won’t break your bank.
Exterior and Interior
Finding a factory fresh Ford Bronco is a tough task. This 1966 Ford Bronco 302 however with is Lime Gold Metallic exterior is a great candidate. This vehicle has been through a full frame-off restoration which was reportedly done nine years ago. The current owner reports that the color is a factory Ford Bronco color with the original color being red when it was new back in 1966. The black soft top blends in with the exterior color. There's also a roll bar at the rear which gives off an aggressive feel. The silver off-road wheels wear a set of 33-inch BF Goodrich tires, helping this Bronco sit high and traverse the rough with ease. Just like the exterior, the black interior of this has been refreshed and is reported to be in good shape with the carpets also in good condition. There are a few upgrades done to the interior which comes in the form of a white Hurst shifter and an aftermarket steering wheel. The vehicle comes with one original key and a few copies.
Engine
Sixties Ford Broncos weren’t known for outright power, rather focusing on reliability when traversing off the beaten path as a capable off-roader. However, this 1966 Ford Bronco 302 offers up a healthy serving of both, as under the hood is a 302ci (4.9L) small-block V8 that is a blueprint crate motor installed in 2020. An Edelbrock carb feeds the engine, and the manual choke was replaced with the engine swap as reported by the current owner, along with a recent service. You can look forward to over 300hp sent to all four wheels via a 3-speed manual transmission which is believed by the current owner to be the original transmission. Power steering and power brakes round off a pleasant driving experience. An auxiliary fuel tank is included in the sale, but the current owner notes that it needs a switch in order to function.
Built to conquer desert terrain while turning heads everywhere it goes, this 1974 Ford Bronco is far more than a customized classic—it’s a one-of-a-kind build known as the “Desert Drifter.” Featured in the April 2004 issue of Bronco Driver Magazine (#8), this Bronco was comprehensively built by Rocky Roads and has remained with its current owner since 2004. Showing just 33,857 miles, it blends classic Early Bronco styling with serious off-road engineering, highlighted by a 392ci stroker Windsor V8 producing over 450 horsepower, a purpose-built long-travel suspension system, and numerous Rocky Roads upgrades. Finished in iconic British Racing Green, this Desert Drifter represents an exceptional opportunity to own a magazine-featured Bronco that was built to perform as impressively as it looks.
The Ford Bronco was in its final generation by 1995, representing the last chapter of the full-size Bronco before the model was discontinued after the 1996 model year. This 1995 Ford Bronco XLT shows approximately 200,406 miles and presents as a well-equipped example of Ford’s iconic two-door SUV. Powered by the dependable 351ci Windsor V8, it combines classic truck-based durability with the practicality and off-road capability that made Broncos a favorite among enthusiasts. Finished in Electric Currant Red Metallic over a Ruby Red interior, this Bronco also benefits from modern upgrades including LED lighting and an aftermarket multimedia system with a back-up camera, making it more enjoyable for contemporary driving.
The Ford Bronco returned to the market in 2021 and quickly became one of the most sought-after off-road SUVs in America, blending retro-inspired styling with modern technology and serious trail capability. This 2024 Ford Bronco Wildtrak 4x4 takes that formula even further, featuring the desirable High/Lux Package and a host of aftermarket upgrades designed to enhance both its appearance and off-road performance. Showing just 11,168 miles, this Bronco stands out with a custom exterior finish, a ReadyLIFT 3.5-inch suspension lift, and American Racing wheels that give it a commanding presence on and off the pavement. Combining factory luxury features with rugged capability, this Wildtrak is equally at home on daily drives, long road trips, or remote off-road adventures.
Hot rods represent one of the purest forms of American automotive enthusiasm, blending classic styling with modernized performance and drivability. This 1930 Ford Model A Roadster Street Rod shows 25,762 miles and has been transformed from an early Ford into a striking custom cruiser. Finished in vibrant red over a black interior, this roadster combines the unmistakable silhouette of a Model A with the power and reliability of a Chevrolet V8. Features such as a street rod chassis build, custom exhaust, aftermarket audio system, and a folding soft top make this a vehicle that can be enjoyed both at local shows and on weekend drives.
Ford’s original Thunderbird was created to blend the excitement of a sports car with the comfort and refinement of a luxury cruiser, and by 1957 the formula had been perfected. This 1957 Ford Thunderbird shows 48,034 miles and represents the final and most refined year of the first-generation “Baby Bird” models. Finished in striking Flame Red with a matching Pleated Flame Red vinyl interior and a Colonial White removable hardtop, this Thunderbird captures the optimism and style of 1950s American motoring. Equipped with its desirable 312ci V8 and Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission, this classic Ford offers a combination of V8 performance, effortless cruising, and timeless styling that continues to make the 1957 Thunderbird one of the most collectible American cars of its era.
The Ford Raptor has long been considered the benchmark for high-performance off-road pickups, but Shelby American took that formula even further with the creation of the Baja Raptor. This 2020 Ford F-150 Shelby Baja Raptor, showing 51,453 miles, combines Ford’s factory-engineered desert-running capability with an extensive Shelby transformation that adds aggressive styling, upgraded suspension components, specialized lighting, and exclusive Shelby touches throughout. Finished in Oxford White over a black and red interior, this truck is equipped with the sought-after Equipment Group 802A and features Shelby’s Baja package, making it one of the most distinctive and capable off-road trucks on the road. Whether tackling remote trails or turning heads at local events, this Shelby Baja Raptor delivers an unmistakable presence.
