While the re-born sixth-generation Bronco is all the rage, let’s not forget that it had five generations before it. Ford’s Bronco was in fact born in 1965 and ran uninterrupted until 1996, before the 25-year hiatus. This makes earlier generations all the more desirable, and this first-gen 1974 Ford Bronco 427 Resto is undoubtedly a piece of history, as well as something that will appreciate in value as time passes by. Don’t be fooled by the fact that it’s a restomod, as it’s still very Bronco!
Donald N. Frey and team designed the first-gen Bronco around a chassis that was specifically for the model range and not shared with any other Ford Motor Company sister brands. This 1974 Ford Bronco 427 Resto rocks an eye-catching blue exterior with white hard top, and was reportedly repainted in 2015 by the previous owner. It’s got aluminum aftermarket wheels wearing 33-inch tires, as well as a bull bar and Warn winch to reassure you that it didn’t lose any rough and tough chops during the restomod process. The interior is decked out in blue to match the exterior, and you’ve got two rows of seats, a Grant GT steering wheel, aftermarket rev counter complementing the stock gauges, and an aftermarket Sony head unit with radio, CD, MP3, WMA, and AUX connectivity that plays through a set of door-mounted 6” by 9” speakers. A set of Ford rubber floormats is present as well, and the dash remains the original unit.
Whilst the largest engine one could get with a first-gen Bronco was a 302ci small-block V8, this 1974 Ford Bronco 427 Resto packs a 427ci swap that was installed by the previous owner, along with a rebuilt original transmission, electric fuel injection and disc brakes. A new serpentine belt and power steering belt were installed in 2020. Drive is sent to all four wheels via an automatic transmission with a kick-shift kit installed by the previous owner, that drops a gear on acceleration. You’ve also got high and low range, selectable by a lever in the cabin.

The definitive American off-roader, Ford’s Bronco will always hold a special place in the hearts of many Americans. This iconic machine was created in the Sixties by the same team that brought us the Mustang, after all. Today’s 1973 Ford Bronco is thus a fine first-generation example that’s undergone quite a few refreshments and updates to bring it to the condition that you see today. So, this V8-toting off-roader now comes with custom forged alloy wheels, a lifted suspension system, and just 348 miles after its makeover. If you want a classic four by four that can still run rings around today’s techy machines when the tarmac disappears, this Bronco is your ticket to ride.
Ford’s Bronco came in 1966 and redefined the word Sport Utility. With its soft top and removable doors on some variants, it was truly a vehicle for the outdoorsy sort. It was made across five generations until 1996, when Ford deemed it time to ride off into the sunset. But the public weren’t happy. Grumbles continued until Ford appeased them with an all-new Bronco in 2021. That’s where this 2023 Ford Bronco Outer Banks comes from. And guess what? The sixth generation Bronco continues the trend of removable doors and roof! That’s clearly evident in some of our photos of this Milford-based car that could be yours if you like.
Ford’s Bronco was the first Sport Utility Vehicle – that’s SUV to you and me – to be developed by Ford. When it was released in 1966, it became clear that the Blue Oval had knocked it out of the park on their first try. The Bronco would be a sales success, with five generations made until 1996, then a twenty five year hiatus and a fine sixth generation that continues on sale to this day. Owning a classic Bronco is a bucket list item for many, and we’ve got one vehicle up for grabs today. Here’s a second-generation 1978 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT up for sale in Downey, California. The second generation was introduced in 1978, making this vehicle straight from the first year of production. It’s got under 95,000 miles on the clock, a 400ci V8 under the hood and a nice green two-tone color theme about it. A Marti report is included with the sale.
Ford gives its Mustang pony car plenty of gallop straight from the factory. But what if you want a raging racehorse instead? Well, that’s where you’d need to venture into the realm of Shelby. Shelby Mustangs are worshipped and revered as some of the most potent around, ever since Carroll Shelby looked at the first-generation Mustang and decided to work his magic on it. Now, Shelby Mustangs roll out of the Ford factory itself, in tribute to the great man who sadly left us some years back. Today, we have a 2020 Ford Mustang GT350 for sale from Gilbert, Arizona with just 5,900 miles to its name. What’s even nicer is that it’s been tuned by Lund Racing and features a supercharger installed on to its 5.2-liter V8. This, the 6-speed manual transmission and many more things make this the ultimate performance Mustang for the discerning driving enthusiast.
One of the most popular hot rod platforms turns out to be classic Ford and Chevy automobiles from the Twenties and Thirties – that’s 1920 and 1930 for you! Crazy isn’t it, that we’re in the Twenties right now – that’s the Twenty Twenties. Back to the subject car, it’s a 1933 Ford Model 40 Hot Rod that started life off as a stylish and dependable two-door coupe but has since undergone a comprehensive rebuild into the form you see here. Up for sale in Cabot, Arkansas, it boasts just over 13,000 miles since rebirth and comes with a 350 under the hood, mated with a Turbo 350 and of course, rear-wheel drive! Join us as we take you on a trip through its essence and you’ll be convinced as to why you should snap it up.
One of the best ways to experience a classic car is to cruise down in town with a drop-top first-generation Ford Mustang. You’ll be guaranteed to receive smiles, waves and general gestures of appreciation because who doesn’t love a Mustang? Introduced in 1964, the Mustang created a class of car called the pony car, and also facilitated an entire culture of happy, carefree cruising. Drop-top examples like this 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible are most facilitative of this culture, and will definitely invoke fond memories from many of those who were around at the time. Heck, even the new generation will love the car’s simplicity and characterful nature. This particular pony is up for sale in Westlake, Louisiana with 7,337 miles on the clock, we’re told. It’s also been fitted with aftermarket air conditioning, a retro stereo, a new convertible top and new whitewall tires too!
