SEMA 2011 Bronco

I don't care much for fords but I am always interested in seeing how companies bring back an automobile.

I wonder how close it would look to this if released.

That thing is pretty much dead-on to the original. Why no interior shots I wonder?

Ever seen the interior of an original Bronco?

There are a few interior shots on this page.  Looks pretty cool but at 150K, I'll pass.

My Dad had a '67 Bronco when I was a kid! I love those. We spent endless hours in that thing hunting Montana. One of those is just about the only ford I'd buy!

Thats is really sharp dead on to the original but the price will kill it. when will the car companies learn if you can build something like that why price it out of the reach of the people who actually want the thing.

Ummm, it looks "dead-on" to the original because that *is* an original - body at least. The plan was to use Dynacorn bodies (didn't even know they were doing Broncos!) but they haven't yet. I bet the collectors love this!

"We looked around the country and bought ten of the nicest virgin Broncos that we could find – all original paint, known history and no modifications, so that in essence it's the best blank canvas we can find."

As for the price, it has a Boss 302 in it so there's about $20k right off the top. It's also got an Art Morrison chassis and 12" of suspension travel.

Looks like Ford comes out with better ideas that Mopar or Chebby
