1968 Ford Bronco – Classic SUV custom built using ’75 Ford small-block engine

Custom Built Classic SUV Ford Bronco 1968

First introduced in 1966, the Bronco started out fairly small for an SUV with plain design, inexpensive, and rugged. Became much larger in 1978, the Bronco also turned into a reliable truck and fun. In this article, the 1968 Ford Bronco has been customized into a truck which is purpose built to run the desert. With the suspensions to match off-road capability, this classic SUV engine has been replaced by the ’75 Ford 351 Windsor small-block with 400 lb-ft of torque and 450 horsepower. Moving to the front of the truck we find a custom set of chromoly shock hoops, engine cage and radius arms. The suspension include King 2.5-inch dual-rate coilovers and Fox 2.0-inch hydraulic air bumps. The interior floor was protected with a full coat of Line-X. Beard Ultra seats have been mounted to the chassis with Crow five-point padded belts. [Source: Via]
