This custom 1970 Ford Bronco has a repaint in white and features suspension and body lifts, custom roll cage and rack, polished aluminum wheels, front disc brakes, bucket seats, aluminum dashboard and more.
The Bronco is equipped with a 302ci V8 engine that has been modified with a performance camshaft, roller rockers, a Holley 650 carburetor and MDS ignition components. Power is routed to the rear or all four wheels through a C4 3-speed automatic transmission and a two-speed transfer case with a twin-stick conversion.
The Bronco features a removable single-piece fiberglass hood and front panel, as well as black bolt-on fender flares. Tubular bumpers include a brush bar up front and an integrated receiver hitch in the rear. A custom roll cage is fitted with removable aluminum roof panels as well as a safari-style basket. A factory hardtop will fit over the cage with the removal of the safari rack.
The ride height has been raised using a suspension lift and body blocks. Braking is handled by unassisted Ford Mustang disc brakes up front and drum brakes out back.
The cabin features modern sport seats upholstered in black and fitted with vintage-style lap belts. Textured bed liner has been applied to the floors and cargo area, and a marine heater box features variable fan speeds as well as four vents mounted ahead of the shifter. Other components include twin transfer case shifters and a Hi-Lift jack mounted to the roll cage. A leather-trimmed aftermarket steering wheel is mounted to a tilting aluminum column. A custom aluminum dash panel houses silver-faced AutoMeter gauges, including a mechanical odometer showing fewer than 50 miles since build completed.
About The Author
Growing up, my father always believed that every family needed a truck—there’s just something about having a vehicle capable of hauling anything at a moment’s notice. That philosophy stuck with me, and it’s been the foundation of my lifelong passion for Ford trucks.
While I’m best known for my work with Ford Rangers, I’ve owned a wide variety of Ford trucks over the years—including F-150s, F-250s, F-350s, and even larger rigs like the Ford Excursion, Ford Expedition, and a 1982 Ford Econoline Sportsmobile camper van. I’ve used these vehicles for everything from family transportation to towing car trailers and campers, and each one has fueled my love for Ford’s versatility and durability.
I especially enjoy the styling of 1970s and 1980s Ford trucks—the bold designs, rugged presence, and classic charm are timeless. Sharing my passion for Ford trucks, vans, and SUVs with other enthusiasts online brings me a great deal of joy, and it’s why I created Blue Oval Trucks.
This website is dedicated to helping Ford truck enthusiasts explore, learn about, and celebrate these incredible vehicles. While I share my expertise and experiences here, Blue Oval Trucks is an independent enthusiast site and is not affiliated with Ford Motor Company.
