1974 Ford Bronco Ranger 302
Overview
This 1972 Ford Bronco Ranger 302 has been comprehensively refurbished and thoughtfully upgraded, blending classic character with modern usability. Refinished in Burnt Orange with Ranger Package White accent striping, it features a removable hard top, chrome bumpers, swing-away rear tire carrier, and fold-down side steps. On the ground, 17” steel wheels powder-coated in Wimbledon White arrive wrapped in BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 tires. Replacement glass, weather seals, and exterior trim further underscore quality and completeness of the restoration.
The cabin has been fully retrimmed with a custom tan leather interior featuring diamond-stitched inserts and orange contrast stitching, plus woven waterproof vinyl floor coverings for durability. A James Duff shifter and functional components including a new heater box, window regulators, and more bring crisp fit and finish throughout. Additional upgrades of a Tuffy locking center console, leather-wrapped steering wheel, new instrument cluster with auxiliary gauges, and a Krawler’s Edge–style roll bar, create a cockpit that balancing rugged utility with bespoke soul.
Power is provided by a replacement 302ci V8 fed by Holley Sniper EFI alongside a Holley HyperSpark distributor, and Edelbrock Performer intake manifold. Ceramic-coated headers and all-new exhaust adds Borla resonators. Rebuilt 3-speed automatic shifting backed by a dual-range transfer case meets Ford 9-inch rear gear and limited slip 4.10:1 grip. Lifted suspension with Bilstein dampers, front disc brakes, and manually locking Mile Marker hubs ensure confident performance on- and off-road. Driven approximately 300 miles since completion, this Bronco is offered with a Deluxe Marti Report, service records from current ownership, and a full-size spare.
