Impactful at first glance, and even more impressive the closer you look, this 1979 Ford Bronco was thoroughly and thoughtfully reengineered by the talented crew at Cleveland Power and Performance. High end upgrades abound, from the custom blended 3-stage Crimson paint, through the Roush Supercharged 5.0L Coyote V8 engine, to the custom-built Cleveland Power and Performance tube steel chassis. The odometer has recorded 21902 total miles since the vehicle was new, but after this comprehensive build, the Bronco has been driven just 1243 miles.
The Coyote exhales through Kooks long tube headers and a custom-built exhaust system with Kooks resonators. A 6R80 6-speed automatic transmission sends the power through a 4-mode electronic transfer case to a 9.75-inch rear with 3.73 gears and to the front 3.73-geared carrier when needed. The body shop crew augmented the custom Crimson paint with bold metallic silver in strategic spots on the exterior, the interior, and engine compartment. Hand-built front and rear body colored bumpers hide in plain sight, along with modern mirrors and door handles, and a handbuilt grille paying homage to both new and old Ford design concepts. The interior, based on a late model F-150, is elegant and luxurious with custom stitched leather and suede seating, custom floor mats, and a suede headliner. The drivers seat is 10-way adjustable, and is heated and cooled. The 8-inch LCD media center includes navigation. The chassis is tied together with a full roll cage, subtly integrated with the interior. The chassis sports a 4-link rear, Belltech coilovers all around, and Brembo brakes highlighted by painted 6-piston front calipers with 15.8 inch (!) rotors. The all-important wheel and tire combo doesn’t disappoint either. It showcases big blacked-out 20×10” Forgeline VX1-6 forged aluminum wheels wrapped in 35×11.50R20 Nitto Terra Grappler G2 All-Terrain tires. Details like the LED lights up front, dual chrome exhaust tips and even a drive shaft loop hint at the premium quality of this build. Please be sure to see the detailed photos at www.maxmotive.com.
