This mean, green, Bronco is a custom build by Panoz Automotive for an R&D project to determine the causes of handling problems in modified Ford Early Broncos. And this is an example of how it's was fixed! This vehicle might have long term collector value, as it is the first prototype for a potential new series of vehicle modifications. This mean, green, Bronco is a custom build top to bottom Equipped with a tuned 302 V8 with aluminum intake and 4 barrel carb and an automatic transmission. Safety first with a custom 6 point roll cage. Under the custom soft top and doors The suspension starts with off road –on road capability with the entire front and rear suspension upgraded with Rock Crawler progressive rate 3.5 inch lift front springs and Wild Horses 11 pack 3.5 inch lift rear springs with an Extreme Duty U-bolt kit. All of the bushings are Energy Suspension polyurethane including degree'd C-Bushings and bump stops. New radius arms brackets have been fitted and the suspension rides on new Wild Horses twin tube gas shocks with red dust covers.
