Have you guys seen this slick Bronco with an '03 Corvette engine?

[Mark]

It's on Tom's Bronco Parts site.
It's pretty slick. I know some hate the Bowtie engine in Broncos, and the wheels are 20" p ), but other than that it's super clean!

click through the pictures and check it out.

With the exception of the 20's, it's beautiful. I'll never put a bowtie motor in The Hulk, but it doesn't bother me.

Clean is quite an understatement.

interesting piece. i'd like to see how that t/c shifter set up works. wondering it they are using a t shift with some sort of linear actuator with a joystick. very clean job though. wonder who built it.

 

[BRussell]

I'd Drive it. The wheels are not my favorite.

 

[2badrotties]

Clean yes buy way too not my style. Way too much Chevy and Rice and :-X


Looks like it was built for some Harlem drug dealer ... but I don't see any christmas trees hanging off the rear view mirror though ;D

Take away the bumper lights and wheel set-up and thats a nice 'n clean job.

Sometimes you can do too much.

slick bronco

From what I could gather the owner built it? Very nice, well except the 20's..................

Will never get tired of raising the old eyebrow everytime a new (no matter how nicely done) EB shows up with a Chevy (or any other) gas engine transplant. Diesels are a different story as there isn't much of a selection of Ford diesels that'll fit in the EB. There are plenty of options of great gasoline Ford engines (and yes i know that it's you preference to put in it whatever you wish), so for me that's just not something i'd even consider doing...

Very nice work other than the chebby engine and the bling-bling wheels (they just don;t go well with the project)

 

[77BroncoWag]

looks kinda femmy. 20"ers ugh

 

[72_EB]

Wow. I didn't think those 20s were so bad until I saw it mounted on the back. PUKE. Everyone is right on...lose the bling, lose those dorky lights in the bumper, and he's got a really sweet rig!

 

[Bronco73]

The EB is very clean but why does one have to go though all that extra work installing a chevy motor? I just don't get it. There is plenty of after market EFI setups for the ford motors and a stroked 351W would have been a great addition to that EB.

I didn't do much more than look at the pics but I wonder if the 4x4 system works.

I would also think the resle value would be lower with the chevy engine but one never knows.

Can you tell the Chevy engine thing bothers me? I just don't get it. I can see swapping a chevy engine in on some of the older ford cars/trucks but not one that comes with a SB already.

Those rims are just to big for those tires. They are way out of place but so is the engine.

Other than that it's a very sharp EB.

 

[77BroncoWag]

street rig only
still ugly

 

[Dan76]

Looks really great besides the rims and blinks on the bumper
:-X

 

[tejayandtina]

I like the chrome grill idea.

 

[fatboy]

Nice looking rig. Not even sure why someone would put a bowtie in a bronco since V-8 options are already there in the Ford line up. Nothing against the bowtie, actually a good hotrod motor since there is so much bling for it. I am even going to put one in my landcruiser build. I would rather see someone stuff a 429 or 460 in a Bronco. Also like the diesel idea. 20 inch tires do not belong on any 4x IMHO and the lights on the front bumper take away from the otherwise very clean look of the vehicle. The interior is beautiful and clean as is the engine bay regardless of the motor being run. It is a street machine though.

 

[4xfloored]

Not crazy about the rims (size) but I bet it handles pretty good on the street

 

[AZMike]

Yeah - the rims are fugly. But - the LS6 he's got stuffed in there is one hell of a motor. It's got a nice flat torque curve, so it's probably good in the Bronco. Unless you race them, the LS1 and LS6 motors are just getting broke in around 100k miles. Granted, there are cheaper options, but it's nice to see something different. I'd drive it in a heartbeat (after replacing those fugly wheels, of course!)

Anyone notice the AZ plate on the back? I suspect you'll be seeing this rig around Scottsdale sometime soon!

 

[Skiddy]

Yeah - I'd drive it in a heartbeat

oh man you had to go and say heartbeat j/k it's not my choice at all but it was very well done imo. not my style for sure esp. wheels and motor. To each their own though
