Bronco of the Day 11-11-15

Today's Bronco of the Day come from The legendary Ford dealer in LA, Galpin Ford. Galpin created a division (called Galpin Auto Sports or G.A.S.) to build custom cars and trucks and this is one of their creations. 

This ’66 Bronco (nicknamed the Heritage Bronco) was named as a Top 10 Car at SEMA by Motor Trend! 

The smallblock Ford 377cid Stroker engine creates an astounding 540 horsepower thanks to a custom tuned Edelbrock EFI and Powertrain Control System, Ford AOD Transmission and custom made headers and exhaust system. 
Putting power to the ground is the High Pinion Dana 60 Rear Axle with Super Duty Disc Brakes and Dana 44 Front Axle with OX Air Locker and 3⁄4 ton Disc Brakes. The Custom Long Travel 3-Link Rear Suspension and 4-Link Front Suspension is designed to work well for rock crawling, while the King Performance Race Series Coil-Over Shocks provide the highest level of suspension control. 
Off-road exterior styling is complete with 16” Mickey Thompson Champion Beadlock Wheels by Alcoa, LT315/75/16 BF Goodrich Mud Terrain T/A Tires, Fully Integrated Roll Cage and Support System, Custom Fabricated Front Bars/Skid Plate/ Rear Spare Tire Mount/ Trailer Hitch Receiver and Rear Bars. 

This Bronco is painted in Heritage colors as homage to Ford’s dominant first, second and third place victories at the 1966 Le Mans 24 hour race with the Gulf GT40s. Equipped with Cobra Sport seats, Deist Safety 4-Point Belts & Harnesses, custom rear bench seat and Auto Meter gauges, this Bronco is built to handle the roughest off-road terrain in style!
