Still want to see a two-door Bronco...




But I agree with the HP writers in that this is a pretty cool rendering. I still want a two-door Jeep competitor though. What do you think of this pic?

Looks good but it's using the squared off symmetrical half-hexagon Jeep style wheelwell cutouts.... I know a lot of aftermarket rubber wheel flares have this shape too (and it makes sense if you cut them big), but Fords need to be rounder or something. Otherwise, it's def a nice retro body style that I would buy. And I want/need 4 doors because I'm 65 and have friends who are in their 60's and 70's.

That's a pretty cool concept. I would drive one.


It sort of looks like my step mom's Dodge Durango, especially without a Blue Oval.

Wow. I didn't even think about the lack of a Blue Oval... It has to have one.

Summer is here and tops are off everywhere... Jeeps that is!

If Ford really wants to build a competitor to the Wrangler the next Bronco better have a removable top, and a two door option as well!!!

Did the Classic Bronco have a blue oval on it?

I think it just needs a taillight to taillight F O R D on the back tailgate and Bronco on the grille.

I would buy one if it looks similar to this rendering. The concept has the "classic" look and the new lines of F series.

Removable top would be a cool feature if it would not add too much to the purchase price and take away from getting a high crash rating.

Please donʻt add - "but jeeps have removable tops" to this opinion of mine. I donʻt care for modern Jeeps. I love Broncos, so there.

The current trend for Ford trucks seems to be the model stamped onto the tailgate/hatch. The Super Duty, F150, and Ranger all have their respective models on the lower section of the tailgate, and I suspect the Bronco may have the same trait.

Please Ford build this rendering! Please make sure we can take off the top and doors. Please drop some spy photos soon. I am ready to buy now.

The only place they had a Blue Oval was on the horn button.

F O R D on the tailgate and grill would look right.

I know the new Bronco will never look like this, but here is one I photoshopped based on the raptor. Road & Track liked it enough to use.

I'd love to see a 2-door bronco again. I know there is basically ZERO chance. But a man can dream no? Love full size 2-doors. Almost bought one new in 1995ish but went the explorer route instead. Bought a 1999 2-door Tahoe in late 1999 when I found out the 2door was going to be discontinued. Kept it for 17 years! Made the mistake of selling it late 2015. Been searching for a low mileage late model bronco ever since. I know they are impractical as hell but they are the bomb!

Wonderful work on the renderings! I like the look if Ford were to go 7/8 size with it Nice to see pro work. I could almost deal with the Supercab doors, too...

Only funny thing is that it looks like the panel versions have windows on the back side... I only noticed that because I'm using one for my computer wallpaper and saw windows on the right side

I think that is the back window from the supercab truck you are seeing there George! Seems to be directly behind the head rests

Oh heck, it's such a good rendering it doesn't matter....but I get the Supercab back row window behind the front seat passenger headrest, leaving the next window as being a rear quarter window....but again, it doesn't matter and I'm using it as my computer wallpaper because it is so nice.

I'd buy a Bronco if it had this look but in the right size. Gotta be 3/4-7/8 F150 sized for me.

The round wheel arches say "Ford" in a good way where a lot of other renderings as above go Jeeplike half-hexagon. And it looks properly tough although no removable roof....but that's not something I want.

Thanks again for posting, mikestoneclark! Beautiful renderings!

George

Shoot, looks like I messed up the window. Oh well too late to fix it all now. Glad you like it otherwise. 7/8 scale would be great. We don't see that often do we? I remember when Dodge came out with the durango was scaled down similar to the ram. Seemed like they didn't get it right at the time, but I grew to like it later.

Why not a Troller?

What about a Brazilian Troller two-door built to meet US safety and EPA requirements? What would be wrong with that, FORD?
