Forget The New Ford Bronco, Man Up With This 1975 Restomod Sporting A Coyote V8

The new Ford Bronco is offered with either a 2.3-liter turbocharged inline-four or a twin-turbo 2.7-liter V6, so if you want a V8-powered one, you might want to take a look at this 1975 restomod.

This Bronco was purchased from the first owner in 2018 and quickly underwent a host of modifications, the most notable of which is the fitment of a 5.0-liter Coyote V8 and a six-speed automatic transmission with a Dana 20 dual-range transfer case.

The Bring A Trailer listing states that the off-roader is finished in Medium Green Glow with white graphics, a white removable hardtop and white aftermarket fender flares. During the 2018 build, the body was removed and the frame was blasted and powder-coated in satin black, while rust was cut out and patched.

A host of suspension changes have also been made, including the fitment of a 2.5-inch lift kit with variable rate coil springs, Bilstein 7120 reservoir-style front and Bilstein 5100 rear shocks. Elsewhere, there are upgraded brakes with drilled and slotted discs up front and 11-inch drums at the rear.

As for the aforementioned Coyote V8, it was sourced from a 2014 Ford Mustang GT and has a PBH Performance serpentine accessory drive kit, a Ron Davis aluminum radiator and an Optima battery. The listing does not mention horsepower and torque figures, it does state though that the Bronco has only been driven for 2,000 miles (3,200 km) since the build.

Inside, the SUV sports green houndstooth seats with matching door panels, green carpets, a Vintage Air SureFit climate control system, a RetroSound stereo with Bluetooth and USB connectivity, a 1000-watt amplifier, a Kicker subwoofer and JL Audio speakers.
