Why Early Bronco
Ford built the early Bronco for eleven years and never needed to change the formula.

1966 to 1977. One generation, one body style, one platform. Small enough to be nimble, tough enough to work, simple enough to be serviceable anywhere. When Ford redesigned it in 1978 they made it bigger and softer. The original was better.

We know the early Bronco's weak points intimately. Floor pans, cowl, inner fenders, cab corners — the specific places rust finds these vehicles first. Every Bronco that leaves this shop has been driven before the customer sees it.

How It's Done
Frame-off. Every time.
There's no shortcut on a proper Bronco restoration. The body comes off. Everything gets addressed. The body goes back on a clean, rebuilt chassis.

Our Process
How a Bronco build works.
01
Assess
Full inspection — floor pans, frame rails, cowl, inner fenders. Every known Bronco rust point documented before we agree to scope or price.
02
Metal Work
Body off. Rust cut out, new metal in. Frame stripped and refinished. Panel work complete before primer goes anywhere near it.
03
Mechanical
Engine rebuild or upgrade. Disc brakes, suspension, new wiring. All done with the body off — because that's when it can be done correctly.
04
Finish & Deliver
Body back on. Interior to spec. Paint last. Road tested before you see it. Delivered ready to drive.
