Mercury Bronco?

Probaly on old topic in this Forum, I'm usually on 61-66 Fseries, but was there such a thing as an early Mercury Bronco?

Tom,

As far as I can remember, there was no Mercury version of the EB. I remember when the first ones came out and, between my dad, two brothers and myself, we have owned seven EB's. (Still have my '72 with limited-slip on both axles.)

Another question often asked is whether there were any two-wheel-drive EB's and, as far as I know, there were not. Bronco II's came either way, but not the EB's and big Broncos.

There were 2wd early broncos, but they were custom made desert racing rigs- not production units. I am aware of mercury trucks for Canadian markets, but I have never heard of Merc Broncos- Have you seen something the rest of us havent???

Nope, just curios if there was such a vehicle since Mercury trucks were sold until 1968. The 61-66 F series guys are huge Mercury fans and I thought if someone had a Mercury Bronco, it would be pretty cool.

Never been a Mercury Bronco, big small or otherwise. What IS ironic is that now the States get Mercury Mountaineers, etc. (We don't)

We don't even have Mercury Dealerships in Canada anymore.

It may be off topic but I have seen pictures of a full size bronco maybe 90 something model that was a 2 wheel version. Now I can't recall if that truck was in the US or not. Since I can't recall much detail on it i wouldn't hold my own breath about it being real but it sure does stick in my mind as being factory.

I've seen 2wd Blazers/Jimmys, but so far no 2wd Broncos that I can recall, especially not the early ones.

They had some 2wd 80's-90's s in big Bronco's but they were never made in the U.S. Some were made in Columbia and other places like that.

There's one Mercury dealer in Nova Scotia. They sell Mercury's primarily, and then Ford's and Lincolns.
