1972 ford bronco this bronco won the s.c.o.r.e. off-road class 3 points championship in 1995! it also won the '95 baja 500, took 2nd in the baja 1000, took the laughlin 250 and the mint 400! this extraordinary vintage bronco is as much a part of 90's off-road race history as the "stroppes" of the 70's were. (actually, this bronco would out perform any of the vintage stroppes over any terrain in baja today)

i purchased this bronco in 1997 when it's owner moved into the brand new "pro truck" class. since then, i did a complete transformation to the entire vehicle.( since i upgraded everything in 2001& '02. it has only been used for pleasure and shows, no races or pre-running since i've owned it). never rolled in all of it's years of racing!

in the last 6 years, less than 750 miles have been put on this bronco. in late 2001, it received a new "hammes bros" of san diego 351 windsor engine with aluminum heads, cam, holley 650 carb, msd ignition, (over $10k), making around 380 hp and 420 lb. of torque. much more work has been done since then.

new custom headers and stainless exhaust
new electrical system with fuse panel
complete new custom wire harness
cleaned up (and sectioned) dash and restructured gauges dash opens on hinges now
extensive sheet metal work to floors, firewall, cowl
