Japan Used Ford Bronco for Sale

The Ford Bronco is one of the SUVs that were manufactured by Ford Motor Company USA from 1965 to 1996. The first sport-utility vehicle marketed by Ford, the Bronco was initially a compact design based on its own chassis, competing against the Jeep CJ-5 and International Harvester Scout. For 1978, the Bronco became a shortened version of the F-Series (F-100, later F-150) pickup truck for its next four generations; the full-size Bronco competed against the Chevrolet K5 Blazer and Dodge Ramcharger.

The first-generation Bronco is manufactured upon a chassis developed specifically for the model range which are different from other Ford or Lincoln-Mercury vehicle. The Bronco was offered with a 170-cubic-inch inline six, at its August 1965 launch. The Bronco was introduced with modified solid valve lifters, a 6-US-quart (6 L) oil pan, heavy-duty fuel pump, oil-bath air cleaner, and carburetor with a float bowl compensated against tilting. A 200-hp 289-cubic-inch V8 was introduced as an option, in March 1966. In the first-generation Bronco, styling was concentrated to simplicity and economy, so all glass was flat, bumpers were straight C-sections and the left and right door skins were symmetrical (prior to the fitment of door-mounting hardware).

The second generation Bronco is based on the Ford F-100 pickup truck chassis (1973–1979 sixth generation). Which are one foot shorter than the shortest F-100, the Bronco has a 104-inch wheelbase. By replacing the multiple body configurations of the first generation, the second-generation Bronco was introduced as a 3-door wagon with a lift-off rear hardtop. The 1980–1986 Bronco is based upon the Ford F-150 (1980–1986 seventh generation). With an all-new chassis, the Bronco retained its 104 in (2,642 mm) wheelbase. As per the eighth-generation Ford F-Series, the Bronco was given a similar update for the 1987 model. While the shortened F-100 platform introduced in 1978 with changes, the 1987 Bronco updated both the exterior and interior.
