Modified 1973 Ford Bronco 302

This 1973 Ford Bronco underwent a refurbishment before being listed on BaT in July 2022, and it was further modified by Gulf Coast Exotic Auto of Gulfport, Mississippi, prior to the seller’s acquisition that same year. Refinished in Opulent Blue Metallic, the truck is powered by a replacement 302ci V8 linked with a three-speed automatic transmission, a twin-stick dual-range transfer case, a Dana 44 front axle, and a 9″ rear axle. It rides on a lifted suspension with Toms Offroad shocks in addition to 15″ Mickey Thompson wheels wearing 33″ BFGoodrich tires and is also equipped with manually locking front hubs, four-wheel disc brakes, LED exterior light bulbs, and AMP Research power-deployable side steps. Inside, the seats are trimmed in black leather and complemented by Dakota Digital instrumentation, a roll cage, a locking center console, a Sony head unit, Vintage Air climate control, and power windows. This modified Bronco is now offered with a Florida title.

The truck was refinished in Opulent Blue Metallic under previous ownership and features body-color wheel arch flares. Additional details include a bimini-style soft top, chrome-finished bumpers, LED light bulbs, dual side mirrors, AMP Research power-deployable side steps, and a single exhaust outlet.

Polished 15″ Mickey Thompson wheels are wrapped in 33×12.5″ BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 tires. The truck is equipped with body and suspension lift kits as well as quad Toms Offroad front dampers, manually locking front hubs, power steering, and power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes.

The cabin houses high-back front bucket seats and a rear bench trimmed in black leather upholstery joined by black carpets that line the footwells. Amenities include Vintage Air climate control, a Krawlers Edge roll cage, a locking center console, a Sony head unit, aftermarket speakers, and power windows.

The leather-wrapped steering wheel is mounted on a tilting column and fronts a Dakota Digital instrument cluster that incorporates a 120-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges for voltage, fuel level, coolant temperature, and oil pressure. The digital odometer shows 2k miles, and total mileage is unknown.

The replacement 302ci V8 has been overhauled and features an Edelbrock carburetor, an HEI distributor, and short-tube headers. An electric fuel pump, a Centech wiring harness, and an aluminum radiator are also fitted.

Power is sent to the rear or all four wheels through a rebuilt C4 three-speed automatic transmission, a twin-stick dual-range transfer case, a Dana 44 front axle, and a 9″ rear axle.

There is currently a lien on the vehicle, and the seller’s lender will need to be paid off before the title can be transferred to the new owner.

The seller tells us they are unable to locate a stamping on the frame.
