Ford Bronco with a 760 hp Supercharged GT500 V8
Jay Leno received Craig Ferguson’s busted Ford Bronco as a gift for his last day at the Tonight Show. It sat at Jay’s garage for years before Ford Director Dave Pericak suggested building something wild with Ford Performance. They together with SEMA Garage and LGE-CTS Motorsports built a very unique Bronco in three months. Under the hood sits a supercharged 5.2 L V8 found in the Shelby GT500 Mustang making 760 horsepower and 625 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels through a TR-4050 five-speed manual, Atlas II transfer case, Carolina Driveline driveshafts, John’s Industries third members with Eaton Truetrac limited-slip differentials. The Bronco rides on a Kincer Adventure Series chassis with 4-link front and rear suspension and Fox 2.0 race series coilover shocks.
