70,681 Original Miles! This 1972 Ford Bronco was built by South County Customs. This is owned by former Kansas City Chiefs football player, Kyle Turley. This restoration was called: Bronco's Buildup, published in the magazine - Truckin' If you have ANY questions, and hopefully you will, they will be promptly answered via phone or email on your schedule for your ultimate convenience. Article From Truckin' A Pair Of Off-Road Hot Rods By Brandan Gillogly When Kyle's Bronco landed at South County, it was not in very good shape. Although the 302ci V-8 and C6 transmission were running strong, there were obvious problems just below the surface. After a lot of rust removal and floorboard replacement, the guys stripped all of the trim and had it powdercoated gloss black. For contrast, the body was shot with Kustom Shop Hot Rod Flatz flat black. Geared a little more toward an off-road look, Kyle chose a tubular front bumper and 5,000-pound Warn winch for the front. Of course, suspension work was necessary, so a 5-1/2-inch suspension lift and a 3-inch body lift were installed to give the Bronco the needed height for 37/12.5R17 Goodyear Wrangler MT/R tires and 17x9-inch Pro Comp wheels. One more wheel and Goodyear tire combo was mounted onto the swing-out tire carrier on the bumper, right beside the 5-gallon gas can. Wild Horses also came through with a disc brake conversion, so the huge tires no longer overpowered the old drums. Inside the flat black beast is an interior that's almost identical to John's. Procar Elite seats, this time with regular lap and shoulder seatbelts; as opposed to the four-point harnesses found in the orange Bronco. Also, it has a Tuffy center console and factory gauges. Dave, who headed up the build of the Broncos at South County, wired the audio system up. He went with a simple Kenwood CD head unit to power speakers mounted behind the rear seats
