1971 Ford Bill Stroppe Baja Bronco on 2040-cars

 1971 Bill Stroppe prepared Baja Edition Bronco, rust free, highly optioned very nice Bronco.  This Baja is on the Baja Bronco Registry and is a highly optioned Baja. It had all of the standard options. Saginaw power steering (present), Stroppe lettered automatic transmission adapter (present), padded steering wheel (not present), Stroppe Deluxe roll bar (present), trailer hitch (not present), dual shocks (present), cut fender rear wells (present), trimmed front fenders (present), spare tire cover (reproduction), and front bumper braces (passenger side present).  In addition to the standard package, this Baja has a very cool Stroppe installed hood scoop. 

I found this Bronco painted green and the interior was brushed with asphalt emulsion.  It was horrible to remove but kept the original floorboards rust free.  The Bronco was given a paint job using Dupont Chromabase materials.  All the chrome, the bumpers, and all the lenses were replaced.  The suspension parts and axles were removed and all parts were powder coated when possible, otherwise painted.  A 2 1/2" suspension lift was installed with all new poly bushings and 8 new shocks.  The frame and underside of the tub were thoroughly cleaned and painted.  I found some vintage American Racing slotted aluminum wheels, had them polished, and put 32x11.50 BFG All Terrain tires on.  The seat springs and frames were powder coated and new foam and upholstery was installed.  The dash was painted its original parchment color and the pad was replaced.  

The engine compartment was cleaned, painted, the gaskets were replaced on the motor.  New valve covers, air cleaner, and exhaust have been installed.  Many other things have been done to this Bronco such as a larger after-market fuel tank and a dual motor wiper conversion kit.  A few custom touches have also been added to this Bronco.  Bronco Design Roadster style door inserts were installed with custom belt line chrome added to the inserts.  Bronco Design rear flares were put on, custom rivet-style bolts were used, and hood pins were installed to give it a super clean look.

Running gear on this Bronco is all in excellent condition.  The transmission shifts beautifully and the 351W is very powerful.  2 1/4" exhaust with glass packs makes this Bronco sound unbelievable.  This Bronco draws a lot of attention at car shows or driving down the freeway.  It looks and runs amazing, however it is 1971 technology and it's lifted with wide tires and a short wheel base.  Every time I take it out, it takes me a minute to get used to driving it.  Additionally this Bronco sits in the garage most of the time.  It has always run great for me but I only take it out a few times a year.  It's being sold as-is with no warranties.  The fuel gauge has stopped working properly.  The needle moves when you turn the key on but stays on E.  The rear main does drip a little bit due to sitting.  The radio is just a face plate only,  I did not need an AM only radio but like the clean look of the original.

This Bronco has performed excellent for me but I have only driven it to local car shows and parties.  The paint is about 5 years old so some rock chips and normal wear and tear has occurred.  Feel free to give me a call with any questions or to come take a look and drive it.  My number is 360-921-4278.
