The 2021 Ford Bronco was an instant success. It helped that Ford went with an icon style inspired by the first-generation Ford Bronco, and the fact that the public had been wanting Ford to bring the Bronco back for a long time.
As cool as the new Bronco looks with its styling cues from the very first Bronco’s, some people felt like it just wasn’t retro enough.
Enter the RetroMod. Not to be confused with RestoMod. In a RestoMod a builder ‘restores’ a vehicle but adds features that the vehicle didn’t come with. That definition has changed over time. Originally someone might rebuild a vehicle and modify it with features that were period correct but not offered on that particular vehicle at the time. Today people are using RestoMod for an older vehicle that’s been rebuilt with modern technology and features.
RetroMod is taking a vehicle and modifying it to have a nostalgic look from an older time period.
In the case of this 2021 Ford Bronco Sasquatch, it was painted a Wimbledon White and Antimatter Blue two-tone to give it a retro look similar to the Bronco above. But the owner didn’t stop there. A carbon fiber panel was painted and applied to the rear side windows to give the Bronco the swept back look of the earlier Bronco’s.
Underneath, the suspension was upgraded with Baja Kits Billet Upper A-Arms and rear control arms. It also received King 25001-392A 2.5” Coil Overs w/Adjustable Compression in the front and King 25001-393A 2.5” Coil Overs w/Adjustable Compression in the rear.
Method Race Wheels 315 wheels were added with 35-inch General Grabber X3 mud tires.
A JcrOffroad Vanguard Bumper was added to the front and houses a Warn winch and KC Gravity LED lights. This set up required the relocation of the Automatic Cruise Control module and front camera.
A KC HiLiTES 91338 Gravity LED Pro6-50″ Light Bar Kit was added over the windshield. These lights come with Yellow KC letters on black covers. A sign shop made custom decals of black letters on a yellow background to give it more of a retro look.
The Rotopax fuel container is mounted on a Hammer Built Bronco Modular Tailgate Reinforcement System.
All in all, it’s a well thought out build and far better looking than what rolls off of the Ford assembly line!

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.
