This 1971 Ford Bronco 393ci V8 Stroker is a custom-built off-road machine that commands attention with its unique features and upgrades. Originally restored and built for a Navy SEAL sniper fighting across the world in Afghanistan, this Bronco carries special symbols of Navy SEAL's throughout its design, including custom-fabricated "Bone Frogs" sewn into the seats and attached to the front fenders and differential covers. It also features rear metal armored plates with sniper rifle round holes, adding an "All American Military Sniper" touch. Years later, a USMC veteran took over the restoration project adding other special features to bring this bronco where it stands now.
Exterior and Interior
The exterior of this custom Bronco is finished in a striking Galaxy Gray paint job, which is less than four months old. It is equipped with a host of off-road enhancements, including a custom full family roll cage, a fully removable soft top, Body Armor powder-coated steel plates, Gorilla Warflares fender set, and Toms off-road front and rear bumpers. The Method Matte Gray 17" wheels wrapped in Yokohama Geolander MT G003 tires provide both style and off-road capability. Inside the cabin, you'll find a black interior that matches the aggressive exterior. The bucket racing seats offer comfort and support with the Bone Frog symbol stitched into every seatback, while the Ford racing dash gauge instruments, Winters sidewinder shifter, custom-built aluminum center console, and Strangefab Metal Crafts custom dashboard complete the unique and functional interior. A new Bluetooth stereo with amp, subwoofer, and outdoor waterproof roll cage mounted speakers were installed 4 months ago as well.
Engine
Powering this beast is a monstrous 393ci stroker V8 motor. Built from a bored-out 351 V8 engine, it boasts a range of performance upgrades, including Wiseco pistons, Scat forged H beams and crank, Holley sniper EFI fuel injection, and CNC headers. The Ford 9-inch rear-end differential, Custom Extreme front shock hoops with single shock towers, Fox bypass front shocks with 2.5" reservoirs in the rear, and custom axles and gears ensure superior off-road handling and capability. The 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission delivers power to all four wheels, providing a thrilling and reliable off-road experience. In summary, this 1971 Ford Bronco restoration is not only a custom off-road masterpiece but also a tribute to the brave Navy SEALs who served in combat zones. Its unique features, dedicated design elements, and recent enhancements make it a remarkable vehicle with a rich history and exceptional capabilities both on and off the road.
