Ford's chief designer cruises around town in a black 1976 Bronco


Recommended Posts

I would be ALL OVER a manual trans in the Bronco....not a three on the Tree though, although my Dads old F100 had that....and something else I would love...a front BENCH seat.

agreed, especially on bench seat. It's not for everyone but I love bench seats upfront because there is usually a gap between that middle seat and the dash. Leaves room to let your leg lean and stretch without getting sore from hard plastic.

Even better, I have twin stick TC on my 70. Put rear in high and front in low, not going to get too far.................

 

Hey, I resemble that. I did the same thing on my '75. I also swapped out the 3-speed for an NV3550 5-speed. With a 4:1 first gear ratio, 2:1 Dana 20 transfer case and 4:10 front and 4:11 rear axle ratios you literally have to give it gas to go downhill in first gear and low range.

My dad's F100 had three-onna-tree, as did my '68 F-100 Ranger and '66 Galaxy 500. Hell, I'd take three-onna-tree if it'd mean I could get a manual transmission...

I second you on the bench seat. It would be a novelty today, and at lest for me they are much more comfortable.
