The Ford Bronco was introduced in late 1965 for the 1966 model year as an off-road vehicle and featured many Falcon-based mechanical components, as well as an impressive list of options, which allowed buyers to personalize their Bronco. Sales were aided by Ford’s “Total Performance” motorsports campaign, and while the successful Baja racing Broncos of Bill Stroppe carried the Ford banner in off-road racing circles during the late 1960s and early 1970s, Doug Nash campaigned a flyweight AA/Funny Car named the “Bronco Buster” in 1966. The Bronco reputation took off and soon became one of the Jeeps biggest competitors. This small four-wheel drive vehicle was accepted well by the public and it stayed in production up until the 1996 model year.

This Ford has been one-family ownership until 2015. This Bronco is painted in Sky View Blue with a white top, of which only 599 were finished with. Powering this Bronco is a 302-cid, 205-hp engine, which is stated to be a period correct engine. Paired to the engine is a three-speed manual transmission; and a four-wheel drive transfer case transmits power to the front and rear wheels. The conventional rear axle has a 3:50.1 gear ratio. The exterior has factory wheel covers and whitewall tires. The inside is completed with an off-white color dash, radio and a parchment vinyl seat.

This beautiful frame-off restoration was completed over a ten year time span. Included with the Bronco is a Deluxe Marti Report and Genuine Ford shop manuals.
