Good eye Logan', that's my '94 C-350 460 5 speed. One of a handfull built with the manual tranny. http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m...ndetail006.jpg I've had a total of 4 Centurions, 1/2 ton and 3 1 tons, including a '95 Powerstroke version. http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m...arch_07234.jpg If your uncle hasn't already found the site, tell him to goto fourdoorbronco.com and join up. :cheesy smile: |
Welcome to the site. By the looks of those Bronco pics, could that not be considered the prototype of whats now known as the Excursion?

I picked mine up at an auction for $350 in terrible shape. I had her for 6 years, and had to doctor up the rust every year.... But she ran like a clock and shifted like a dream... I will be buying another one again someday (rust free next time). I will also be dropping a diesel in it with at least a 6 inch lift to start and an SAS. Your broncos are beautiful and got me teary eyed...I'm sure that your rare broncos are in great hands. I wish Ford would bring them back, the bronco was the best design (especially for off road). Welcome to the site buddy! |

Centurion had a close relationship with Ford, one story goes that Ford commisioned the 4DB to be built by Centurion pending actual Ford production. Chevy and Ford struck a deal that Ford wouldn't compete with the Suburban and Chevy wouldn't compete with Ford's extended cab. It's a plausible story, but unconfirmed. Regardless, Centurion four doors started showing up as early as 1984, but didn't hit higher production until '86/'87. Ford sold them on their lots under full warranty, but most were ordered through Ford dealers. The "rarest" 4DB's are the dually conversions, one of which was featured in a series of articles in Four Wheeler Magazine, "Project MPG" back in the late '90's. http://performanceunlimited.com/wall...cles/img50.jpg |
