Ford got in on the SUV game way back in 1965, albeit the term hadn’t been coined yet. Their Bronco would prove to be such a sales success, that collective groans were raised from the public when it bowed out in 1996, and cheers greeted the 2021 revival. This 1971 Ford Bronco is from the first generation, and comes with quite a few upgrades. The seller reports that it’s been built by an active duty Navy Seal, and bears many Seal attributes as a result. With just 1,500 miles on the build, it’s perfect for those seeking the outdoor lifestyle.
One word to describe this 1971 Ford Bronco would be butch. Wearing a silver paintwork and rolling on Method Race bead lock 12x9 rims in black, which wear 37-inch Nitto Trail Grappler tires, nothing seems unsurmountable to this SUV. The skid plates, 2-inch body lift, 3.5-inch suspension lift and HD shackles all come together beautifully, and you can see the Fox bypass shock absorbers with 2.5-inch reservoirs peeking out in the wheel wells. PNW Body Armor completes the outlook of this Bronco, that still wears its retro-stylized ‘Bronco’ badging in an almost humorous manner. A West Coast full roll cage is present for added protection of the cabin. The interior is similarly purposeful, with a BC Bronco dash that’s been clear powder coated, as has the center console. Four occupants can sit on Mastercraft seats with harnesses, and there’s a Sidewinder gear shifter, Ididit steering column, and a bevy of aftermarket gauges for ample monitoring. You won’t find air conditioning or slick infotainment systems here; the wind blowing through the cabin and the sounds of nature (plus the engine) are your climate control and sound system.
Under the skin, there are even more mods on this 1971 Ford Bronco. Let’s start with the engine, a monster 351ci V8 that’s been enhanced to 393 stroker specification, and is far meatier than the largest 302ci offering that Ford offered on the first-generation Bronco. It has Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection, Shorty headers, Wild Horses hydroboost, 351W Bronco sump oil pan, BC Bronco serpentine set-up, MSD 6 ignition box, and more, and sends drive to all four wheels via a fully built 700R4 automatic transmission, Tom Woods drive shafts, ARB lockers, 78/79 full-width Dana 44 axles, and 35 spline chromed axle shafts. PSC steering assist makes maneuvering easier, and a Sherman 23-gallon fuel tank ensures extended range in the middle of nowhere.
You could say that having a Ford Bronco is like having a Labrador retriever. Everybody is happy to see it, and it is welcome anywhere. Born to butt heads against the Jeep CJ, the Ford Bronco is your ticket to enter any auto show, and people will praise it with a shared passion for classic autos. And it's not hard to see the appeal. You can take its roof off and let the wind and sun come in freely. That is what this 1971 Ford Bronco 4WD Sport Utility is all about. It is a classic off-roader with a more potent engine than standard and includes contemporary features that make it a delight to drive. Located in Tennessee, it is reported to be in good condition and awaits its next ardent owner.
Modern-day SUVs feature a highly competitive market, and in the intense competition, machines always shine through the crowd; present today is one of those unlikely stars and takes shape with this 2023 Ford Bronco Outer Banks. This factory-fresh modern offroader has a reported 2,300 miles on the clock and is off-roading and cruising done to perfection and in style.
The Ford Bronco saw the light of day back in 1965 and went head to head with the likes of the Jeep and International Harvester Scout. Ford decided to discontinue the Bronco series in 1996, following five iterations of the vehicle that saw monumental success. As a result, this off-roader became one of the rare and most coveted vehicles among the SUV community. When Ford announced the return of the Bronco in 2021, it was the hottest news in the automotive world. Many aftermarket specialists wanted a piece of this craze, and SoFlo Jeeps are one of the establishments that aced the task. This example is a 2022 Ford Bronco SoFlo Stallion bearing just 13,100 miles on its clock. Featuring the Big Bend trim, this beast awaits in Missouri for its next owner.
The original Mustang Boss 302 of the late 1960’s is an iconic muscle car in every respect. So, when Ford decided to resurrect the idea in 2012, the bar was already set high. Many feared the reincarnated Boss 302 would be nothing more than a marketing exercise that evoked memories of the original through visual upgrades and nothing more. However, the fears were put to rest when the car was unveiled. While visually, the 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 does differ from the GT500, there was so much more going on under the skin. The result was almost universally praised by the press, with an extra 32 horsepower from the engine, a completely revised approach to the car’s suspension, and improved brakes. If that wasn’t enough, the Boss 302 presented today has gone under some significant modifications by GALPIN Auto Sports. With a host of upgrades, and some eliminations, this Mustang is set as a proper track car with a gutted interior and a new 5.2L V8 engine that features other functional upgrades that could be the perfect track-weapon in your garage.
The 1957 Ford Thunderbird was an icon the moment it left its factory floors; it had iconic '50s styling that was jaw-dropping, the luxury that most '50s American motors are renowned for, and performance that was supposed to take on the first-generation Chevrolet Corvette. Present today is not just any first-generation Ford Thunderbird, but this sought-after 1957 Ford Thunderbird E-Code. Built to turn heads as you drive by, this 50s icon can be your weekend cruiser that's best enjoyed with its top-down and picturesque back road.
