Reimagined by Velocity Restorations, this 1974 Ford Bronco transforms Ford's iconic first-generation SUV into a thoroughly modern 4x4 while preserving the unmistakable character that made the original a legend. Showing just 896 miles since completion, this professionally built example is finished in an exceptionally dark metallic blue over a handcrafted leather interior and is powered by a Gen III Ford 5.0L Coyote V8 paired with a 10R80 10-speed automatic transmission.
Showcasing a deep metallic blue finish that appears nearly black in most lighting, the Bronco presents a subtle yet purposeful appearance that rewards a closer look. The original steel body has been restored and finished to Velocity's exacting standards, accented by polished chrome bumpers, classic Bronco badging, and modern LED projector headlights. A 6-point family roll cage enhances occupant protection while complementing the Bronco's rugged character, and power-retractable side steps provide easier entry without disrupting the classic profile. Both a full black soft top and a matching bikini top are included, allowing the Bronco to be configured for everything from all-weather driving to open-air cruising. 17"" bullet hole alloy wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich All-Terrain KO2 tires complete the capable stance.
Power comes from a Gen III Ford 5.0L ""Coyote"" V8 equipped with electronic fuel injection and paired with a Ford 10R80 10-speed automatic transmission, delivering modern Ford performance with exceptional reliability and drivability. A twin-stick Atlas dual-range transfer case sends power to a Dana 44 front axle and a Ford 9"" rear axle equipped with 3.73 gearing. Built on a restored original Bronco chassis, the suspension has been comprehensively reengineered with Bilstein shocks, modern coil-spring suspension, power steering, and Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes. Together, these upgrades transform the driving experience, giving the Bronco confident road manners and braking performance while preserving the character that has made the original so enduring.
The custom leather interior reflects the same attention to detail found throughout the build, balancing vintage styling with contemporary comfort and convenience. Diamond-stitched leather upholstery covers the supportive front bucket seats and matching rear bench, while premium materials, custom trim, and thoughtfully integrated controls create a refined cabin environment. Velocity-exclusive Dakota Digital gauges preserve the familiar appearance of the original instrument cluster while providing modern instrumentation, complemented by power windows and Vintage Air climate controls for modern air conditioning. Entertainment comes from a Clarion Bluetooth head unit paired with premium Focal speakers, delivering impressive sound quality and wireless connectivity. The cabin is completed by a classic wood-rimmed steering wheel and lockable center console with USB ports.
Showing just 896 miles since its professional build, this Velocity Restorations Bronco represents a carefully executed reinterpretation of one of America's most recognizable four-wheel drives. Combining proven Ford 5.0L performance, premium craftsmanship, and timeless Bronco styling, it offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a professionally built example from one of the industry's most respected names.
