1969 | Ford Bronco 302
Overview
Introduced in 1966, Ford’s first-generation Bronco joined a group of now-longstanding American icons. Serving as the Blue Oval’s answer to other utilitarian but robust off-roaders like Toyota’s Land Cruiser and Land Rover’s Series IIA, the original Bronco’s clean lines married versatile simplicity with rugged capability. Early iterations won over buyers with pickup, roadster, and wagon body styles plus optional V8 power. While the model later grew in both footprint and output, the impact of the original remained its defining character. The first Bronco’s popularity for restoration stands paramount in the classic 4x4 segment.

This 1969 Ford Bronco Wagon combines classic early SUV aesthetics with minor modifications adding to its usability. A full frame-off restoration completed in 2016 by Jeremy Topping of Costa Mesa, California ensures its double White factory appearance remains fresh and eye-catching alongside a spartan engine bay and undercarriage. The fixed hardtop two-door SUV body is finished in Cream White, capped off by of-the-era chrome details tip to tail. Hubcapped steel wheels wear Hankook Dynapro all-terrain tires while a split rear tailgate defines iconic utility.
.
Cabin amenities benefit from White vinyl upholstery on both front and rear seats as well as a center console cup holder section. Added Vintage Air A/C and a Retro AM/FM/AUX stereo with Bluetooth offer contemporary four-season comforts. Under the hood, a 302ci V8 and three-speed manual transmission provide smooth power delivery backed by modern enhancements including an aluminum radiator and Warn manual-locking front wheel hubs. Under 65k miles are shown on the odometer, and a Seller’s Disclosure, car cover, and full-size matching spare are included in the sale.
