1973 FORD BRONCO

OVERVIEW

This 1973 Ford Bronco 4x4 half-cab pickup has been upgraded with a four-inch Skyjacker lift, BFGoodrich tires, fender flares, a dual-exhaust system, and a custom interior treatment. It was restored inside and out and receives power from a rebuilt, reportedly numbers-matching 302ci V8 paired with a three-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Refinished in metallic charcoal over a black vinyl interior, this first-generation Bronco is now offered by the selling dealer with a clear Florida title.

EXTERIOR – FEATURES

This 1973 Bronco compact pickup retains its original body panels but has been restored and repainted metallic charcoal. Equipment includes a custom front bumper, fender flares, a driver-side mirror, and a dual-exhaust system. The interior of the cargo area is covered with bed liner material. All exterior trim has been finished in monochromatic black.

EXTERIOR – WHEELS AND TIRES

Black steel wheels are wrapped in new BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A raised-white-letter tires.

INTERIOR – FEATURES

The two-seat cab is fitted with black vinyl low-back buckets, matched to the flooring material and the padded dash. Features include lap belts and a custom steering wheel.

INTERIOR – GAUGES

Instrumentation features a 100-mph speedometer surrounded by gauges for the fuel level, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and voltage. The five-digit mechanical odometer reads 37K miles, although the true mileage on the chassis is unknown.

ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION

The rebuilt, reportedly numbers-matching 302ci V8 was rated at 137 horsepower and 230 lb-ft of torque when new. It has been upgraded with a mild cam and an Optima battery. Power is sent to all four wheels via a column-shifted three-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case.

UNDERCARRIAGE

Stopping power comes from power-assisted brakes. A four-inch Skyjacker lift provides added clearance. Additional photos showing the underside are available in the carousel to the right.
