I'm also an early bronco owner and think that is really an interesting concept. What I think is more likely to happen is for one of the aftermarket companies to build a EB replica body that bolts to the 6th gen 2-Door frame. That engine bay in the EB is tight and may be the limiting factor.
My now 21 year old son's first car is the 1967 bronco in my profile picture. I can assure you it didn't look like that when he bought it. Lots of father and son hours spend making work as a daily driver. He now has it at school in Fort Worth.
I believe my Bronco has landed. Of course I'm out of town for the next 10 days straight. Don't feel too bad for me because I'm spending some of that skiing. Think I'll have to have my son pick it up.
Here is my BaseSquatch coming of the line 2 weeks ago. Dealer said that the trucking company has it and they are waiting on delivery. its a 2.3L, slush box, Aux switches, and a world of upcoming aftermarket support to make it uniquely mine. Best of all, it will match our 1967 that my son has...
you joined yesterday and your first post was a thread trolling all of us who reserved 18 months ago and still don’t have our trucks. That isn’t a way to make friends. Ford‘s miserable record on filling early reservations has been discussed at length. You are not being a “messenger” but rather...
They look great! how did you paint them or did you just drop them off at a body shop? I have to imagine that they used a filler and then a bunch of sanding to get a paintable surface. Does it feel durable?
How old are you? I grew up when cars still had carburetors and manual transmissions. My 20 something year old sons all had to learn on an old suburban without parking sensors or backup cameras. It made them better drivers. Relying on electronics to make you feel safe isn't really "safe".
A year ago I got a ride in a Bronco at King of the Hammers and posted on here that the tailgate rattled terribly off road. The driver said it was "pre production" but I wondered it the tailgate was strong enough for the weight of the wheel and the leverage it has on those hinges.
Here is the...
Is the 4A similar to the center locking transfer case in my Range Rover? The Rover one is variable and fully lockable. It's party trick is that it can adjust instantly and works amazingly well.
Keep in mind that Ford and Land Rover have had joint engine development deals over the years. The V6 3L Turbo Diesel in my Range Rover is the same engine they put in the F150. 62,000 miles and it has been great.
