Ford Bronco 302 V8 1972
General description :
DESIRABLE BODY STYLE, 302 V8, 3SPD TRANS, RUNS/DRIVES GOOD, AFFORDABLE CLASSIC!!
Do you want a classic American V8? Do you want a convertible? Do you want a 4x4? Or do you want it all in one package like this 1972 Ford Bronco?
Ford had some nice colors available from the factory in 1972, but none were as bold as this purple. The white accents that were added was a masterstroke. After all, it looks great as a performance stripe package starting on the hood, and then flowing onto the fenders and doors. Plus, it makes for a very uniform package when combined with the bumpers, grille, wheels, and the roof. Speaking of the roof, we all love these first-gen Broncos because of the fully removable hardtop and removable doors. It allows you to dial in your level of how much nature you want at any time.
Even with the roof removed, this Bronco still follows a nice color theme. With the bold purple returning on the dash and doors, and plenty of white on the refinished seats and door inserts, this is a full uniform appearance inside and out. Yes, those white bucket seats are made of a durable vinyl, so they clean up easily from any day you might spend in the mud. More than just look nice, this is a true vintage truck, and so it has the right features like the classic grippy dual-spoke steering wheel. This gives you an easy view of the factory gauge setup and the road ahead.
One of the best options from the factory was the V8 upgrade, and a very original-looking 302 V8 still lives under the hood of this G-code Bronco. Ford's V8s are known for being stout and powerful, and so it makes for the ideal power plant in a trail-ready Bronco. The upgraded dual exhaust gives a nice tone no matter if you're in the city or off the pavement, and the control of the column-shifted three-speed manual transmission is ideal. It's a true 4x4 with a two-speed transfers cars and manual locking hubs. Another great thing about Broncos is the short wheelbase is ideal for scaling obstacles and tight turns. Also, if anything needs to be mended after an adventurous day off-road, many of the major mechanical pieces are either shared across the Ford's robust truck line and part of the larger 4x4 community. So while 1st generation Broncos are becoming rarer every day, finding replacement parts is often quite simple.
This is a nicely packaged and well-priced classic Bronco. So you know it's a deal that will be moving fast. Call now!

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
