1971 Ford Bronco

[knitwits1975]

This was bought brand new by my grandparents in the fall of 1970. It was given to me several years ago and it is now fully restored.

New tires and wheels

Well done grill.

The 302 CID powerhouse.

There I am beside it.

And a rear shot, plus the rear of my van.

I sure hope I can get washers to look this good!

Classic Ford!

WOW! Is that a V8 under the hood? OMG. You could pull a big camper trailer behind it I bet. Nothing like the simple classic engine. So easy to work on and no computer electronics to get in the way.

I had a friend with a 77 Bronco,the last year of that style.It was a fun ride,to say the least!

SWEET!

That is one BEAUTIFUL Bronco. My choice in colors too. Are they original?

I wanted one of those so bad then I was a teenager but my Dad had passed away and it was just me and my mom, both of us knew nothing about vehicles and upkeep.

Of course, I could only afford one that needed work and I was too afraid to be stranded somewhere in the Arizona desert alone! LOL

That is my dream ride for when I have a mid life crisis.

Yep, The colors are all original. The radio is even original Ford/Philco AM radio and it works great. I just wish My granddad could see it.

The winch is a Koenig power takeoff winch which was installed almost immediately after it's original purchase.

Fantastic job there, looks like it just rolled off the assembly line. Not hard to tell you're in Washington either and I don't mean by the license plate, just by all those tree's in the background.

WOW!! Jason, that is one beautiful Bronco...very nice!! Is it stock or did you make any modifications? That looks like the original carburetor & air cleaner on the 302 though. The interior is just cool; love that big steering wheel and extra-long column shift lever! I bet that "3-on-the-tree" is a blast to drive!

Hey Austin!

It's all stock except for the front bumper with the PTO winch. This one also has positraction on both axles, but it was originally ordered that way. The carburetor is the stock two barrel. It will go anywhere you want to go.
