This rust-free 1975 California Ford Bronco Ranger was restored by Rocky Roads LLC and Icon 4×4 in Chatsworth CA. During the original 2016-17 restoration at Rocky Roads Broncos, it got an engine-out restoration including a rebuilt ‘numbers matching’ 302 engine (that currently has around 2500 miles on it). It just got a new dual Magnaflow exhaust system from the headers back, plus a rebuilt carburetor, electronic ignition and all surrounding engine parts have been recently replaced. The three speed C-4 automatic transmission was rebuilt, same goes for the Dana 20 transfer case. It has a pair of rebuilt drive shafts. It has a newer under-dash Vintage Air conditioning system, a restored stock dash, a new Centek wire harness and a new Legend powder coated Family Roll cage with black padding and wrapping, plus new Grade 8 mounting hardware.

It has an upgraded power brake system, rebuilt factory power steering with a modern GM style Saginaw power steering pump. It has a newer 2.5″ soft ride suspension system with Bilstein shocks, with 11 leaf rear springs. It has a new white 2-stage paint job, new belt line and grill trim, the mirrors and outer door handles have been replaced, it has chrome wing windows and original Ranger aluminum trim surrounding the window frames and the windshield glass. It has new stainless steel hardware and removable stainless steel door hinges. It has newer chrome front and rear bumpers. It has a receiver hitch under the main (rear) tank for light duty towing, it has a factory 8 gallon side tank, both tanks on an electric tank switch. It has a Dana 44 front axle and a Ford 9″ rear axle. The interior has a new Linex interior bed liner plus restored black pleated vinyl stock seats in front and a restored black folding rear seat with headrests in back. It has newer black RRB snap-in carpet mats in front, in back and behind the rear seat. It has a black Tuffy locking center console and a newer tilt steering column, along with a new replacement Ford Bronco period correct steering wheel.

Inside of the locking center console there is a bluetooth sound system with 4 speakers and a Rockford Fosgate amplifier (which has been mounted under the passenger side seat). After Rocky Roads LLC completed the original restoration, it went down the street to Icon 4×4, where it got new 4 wheel Wilwood disc brakes in front and in back, a new proportioning valve, plus all new brake lines throughout, as well as new front and rear anti-sway bars. It also has a set of clean black powder coated 17 inch by 7 inch Smoothie wheels adapted to work with a set of restored and rare Ford Dog-Dish hub caps. It also got a new Icon 4×4 black canvas soft top that is still in really nice shape.

A service was recently completed (in late 2021) at Rocky Roads, including an engine oil change, a minor tune up, timing, new battery and starter solenoid, new positive and ground wires to battery, new electronic ignition, new 4.11 gearing. The Bronco was recently polished so it shines like it was just restored. You could drive this Bronco every day and not have to think about it. Zero service needed.
