SURPRISING Wife w/ F350 Ford Centurion 4-Door Bronco 460 Automatic Lariat Bought on FB Marketplace

- Опубликовано: 16 июн 2024
- Picked up this sweet ride off of Facebook Marketplace this week and HAD to surprise my wife with it, after she told me I wasn't allowed to buy anymore vehicles or items...but I couldn't pass up this opportunity! What do you think??
Centurion (part of Starcraft conversions) was the coach works, in White Pigeon, MI...the C350 started as an OEM F350 Crew Cab (long bed), cut-down and the Bronco rear added. TheRe was a C150 that started as a standard cab and was stretched. There was no 3/4 ton version offered. It was sold through a Ford dealership and is all OEM bits!
The roof has polyester filler, so CHECK THAT for rust and delamination.
Centurion made several other models not made directly by Ford like a crew cab F150 and the Van-nosed pick-up "Cruiser."
The upfitterer was sold to "Southern Comfort Conversions" and then ended operations in 2009 after the nation-wide 2008 financial fiasco.
I had a '90 C350/Navistar-IH 7.3L Diesel, 4x4. It was incredible and was sold for a good price to an enthusiast that planned to run it on waste cooking oil.
I bet the actual mileage here has a 1 or 2 on the left end of the odometer that cannot be displayed.
She looks very excited😂
Greg, you HAVE to fully restore this classic.
I think the enthusiasm is limited to one, lol. Once it's done, it will grow on her.
It is done lol!!
@@gbiffle No Greg . . you have to do some rust repair and repaint it for her!!!!
*She seems super-pumped about it.*
I can feel her enthusiasm from Georgia 😂😂
little different definition of pristine than I generally would use
“Not a speck of rust”
Bro he's gotta sell the wife on it leave him alone 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@cakevictim Tail gate rust is real. Rear window seal was not created in anyone's finest hour.
It’s like a first generation ford excursion
She holds her excitement very well it is a awesome vehicle what a great find
Sweet find. Bronco was the last to retain the removable roof. Hell yeah, that's the best part of that truck, and the 460 1 ton 4x4 solid front axle with extra doors. I love it
I remember the day I was at the county fair and they were showcasing one of these. The excitement was palpable and people were literally going crazy to check it out. If my memory serves me right $39k was the price. Pretty sweet ride with some exciting history.
That is awesome, I would take that over anew Bronco in a heartbeat
No doubt about that...
I really love the 460. I have a carbureted one in my 1985 F-250. It starts instantly no matter how cold and goes int a super smooth almost silent 500 rpm idle. SO reliable.
I thought I had seen all American cars…… I had never seen this!!
His sarcasm and wit is hilarious as hell!!! Keepem comin!!
I don't think she's too happy. ha-ha I've seen that half smile before at my house!
Man that’s a killer find!!! And it looks like you have the means to fix it up too!!if she doesn’t like it least you have it for yourself… bravo!!
Excellent find and buy Greg.
So what are you gonna buy her??!!😳😳😳😳😳
I'm 60 yrs old and swear I don't think I've ever seen a 4 door bronco,,id love to have it,,and you got a hot wife too don't loose her over a vehicle 😂
That's because it's not a bronco. It's a Centurion, they weren't even made by Ford. They were pieced together by a couple of private companies.
@chrisparker9886 no wonder I never seen one then still like to have it tho
They made lots of them
I laughed so hard when you revved the engine a few times and said "ya hear that shit?!" I love the enthusiasm!!!!! That's a badass truck man!😁🤘👍
That's even better than the CNC you got her for Valentines day ❤
I'm a chevy driver who has 3 suburbans but these are Hella cool and Hella rare. I don't understand why they didn't make a ton of these for Ford folks as suburban alternatives. I think the Excursions are badass but I prefer my burbans
I think this is one of those situations where the husband buys himself something and says it’s for the "wife". It's ok i've done it before with a bowling ball.
Dual domelights - what a exciting option , lol
Lol..should be dual AC w/ 15"TVs..in time..
That 460 under the hood will know where every gas station is , lol
Dang Greg I'm in! That's badass.... Just like you said! I bet Mama is impressed.
If we don't hear from Greg, he was smothered overnight.. 😂
Subscribed! You cracked me up! Most wives are spoiled rotten. You got your old lady a nice used vehicle. Respect!! Timmy C Arizona
Your wife seems really excited 😂😂
Glad she loves her new ride. :). It is beautiful.
Im not much of a Ford man but that suv is pretty cool looking Bronco. Congrats on your unicorn.
I love my old broncos never seen one of those. That's a good motor the broncos also a real good shape. NICE FIND !!!!!! Total restore u must. 👍🤳
Centurion.....wow I've seen 2 in my life. Very cool.
That’s an awesome buy. I’m thinking “honey” wasn’t quite as enthused as you were. 😏
She’ll come around. You only had here best interests at heart.
2:05 I have never seen the rest of this vid just watching it for the first time but somehow I feel a great disturbance in the force
Sweet ride Biff
Why does she wear sunglasses inside the house ?
"it needs a little cleaning, but that's what you're for honey" 😮😮😮😮😂😂😂😂😂
Centurion was the conversion company.
These were converted from a donor chassis and oem bronco back end grafted.
Sold at ford dealers just like the more common conversion vans that centurion offered.
Dont remember what they called these f- series crew cabs that were converted to 4 door broncos...
I sold the vans new and that was in the early 1990s... well done vans ive only seen one of these in person.
The first time I have seen one. Awesome!!
LOL Biff discovers marketplace!
Me being a big Ford guy I need something like this in the near future awesome
I've never seen that type of Ford vehicle before, that is nice I bet when that thing was new people loved it.
Can’t wait to see the finished product👍🏿
Definitely has the best engine Ford ever made!
Haha. Sweet man! That’s one lucky wife!
Thumbs up my friend!
She fell in love with it right away 😍
Biff...she was ok with you buying that big ol' mansion, huh?
She needs to 🤫 ...
Needs a 7.3 and a 5 speed, though.
Well done, Greg!!!
You should have been a used cartruck salesman lol. Luv ya Greg
bif, you are the MAN !
haha this video was awesome and i can 10% relate the the buying random things on Marketplace it's addicting.
Great find Biffle! I don’t overly like fords but a Centurion is always on the list. Always wanted one
Had one with a 7.3 IDI diesel it always turned heads!
Love that !!
never even heard of this. what a score
You got a deal on that vehicle Greg that is bad ass
Greg I love it buddy, I want your clock.
i just found your channel. i used to watch you race. I laughed way harder than i should have when you said you found Marketplace.. I knew what you were gonna say next.
Thats a great ride , it looks like a 89 , 90 model , i had a f 150 new in 89 , but it had the conservative 302 which was great on gas pulling a pinto race car . Keep us up to date on the progress of this hotrod
That’s a beautiful house
Dude.... This thing is awesome. I didn't even know this existed. I have a new goal in life lol
okay greg, 3 things; I saw the same look on my wifes face when I bought her a new shotgun I've always wanted, #2 if the whole NASCAR thing had fallen through you'de done quite well in the used car game and #3, that thing screams for a 12 valve Cummins with an Allison 8 spd, your welcome
I've got the opposite problem.
My wife finds all sorts of stuff on Marketplace, then I get to drive all around NC to pick the stuff up!
Its the thought that counts. That thing is bad ass. Fix the ac and glove box. The door and the rust.
That is cool, your wife is lucky. Mine only got a new Lincoln Aviator. I haven’t seen a Centurion in 25 years. I always wondered why Ford never made a 4 door Bronco back then. What’s a bit amazing is the size difference between that F350 and the new F250, I think.
They did. Not sold in the US though. All over Mexico/South America
@@RichieRichpobutproudyea I should’ve said why they never sold them here. I almost bought a 3 door from Mexico
@@mikelliteras397 They are seriously cool. A few RUclipsrs putting 4 wheel drive under them. I would love one. With all the suburbans sold in the US, you think ford would have jumped in.
They did. The excursion.
That house is insane, l want to see a tour of that!!!
I used to travel for work in the area where these were modified, and drove by their factory in White Pigeon, MI many many times. I always wanted one, but the bank account never allowed for that.
I've never seen one of these before, never knew this vehicle existed.
Have wanted one all my life
Added bonus
The top comes off
Mrs.B sure does wear the hell outta them shorts......
Why would anyone buy a 4 door when a 2 door Bronco is such a beautiful ride. Come on Biff.😂😂😂
Definitely not very many of them around. Looks like a good restoration job. I like it and I’m not a Ford guy. lol. Good buy Greg.
Great find Greg have you ever looked for an old Ford maverick
My great grandmother used to have one it was I nice classic till it sat too long on the lawn and rusted out😢
Damn Biff well done!
That's nice, I have seen 2 in person really nice ride👍👍👍👍
i wish they still made a Ford truck like this
You made me miss my '78 460 swapped 4wd Bronco
I have never seen a bronco like that, didnt know they made them.
Great truck brother!
She has to be the patient person I’ve ever seen. Come on Biff you can do better than that! 😂
AWESOME BRONCO LIMO!!!
Interesting I just recently acquired a '92 F250 in those very colors. I remember when these things first were announced. I think some were calling it a Bronco 3. As the 1980's came to a close, it finally dawned on Ford that the SUV was seriously popular and GM was kicking their hind end with the Suburban! Disappointing it took Ford so long to come up with their own full size SUV design and from the looks of this one, the aftermarket crew took first crack at it. It is a very nice vehicle. I did kind of wonder what my truck would look like if it had been built as an SUV and now I have an idea.
Biff, your sales pitch was on point! Im not sure if she was buying tho! I think she will come around :)
Perfect for showings! 🤣
Haven't seen one of those before. Was this an aftermarket conversion by Centurian for Ford? Seems like I've heard that name before in aftermarket stuff. Hey Biff, just find your channel today and subscribed. Used to love to watch you and Mikey on your Speed Channel show. Think it was This Week In NASCAR. May have the name of the show wrong but it was a great show. Schrader was on there alot with you guys.
The Big sounds like a brand new used car salesman that just finished his first training. And now he is trying to make his first sale.
I didn't even know that existed! That's sick
The B I F F!
Let's fu*king GO! 🇺🇲
I never knew such a thing had ever been created, really cool. Once he puts another $20k into it ol' Greg might get a little action again.
Centurion is the conversion company that customized the Bronco that it was.
The Centurion is like the Excursion
My Bronco's odometer says the exact same thing. Just put a 2 in front of it. LOL "Not a spot of rust anywhere" except the giant rust hole in the tailgate. Bwaaaahahahaha. She's pissed.
Looking at that house its gonna take alot more to impress her😂
Just like when I explain to the wife how SHE needed a new gun. Yeah, I get about the same response. Hope you are still okay Greg! Maybe you could have raced better with Cleetus if you didn't have to worry about the wife and the new car. 🙂
Miss you on the track sir
That ford is badass. Love it
Drop it off at Fat Fender Garage in AZ and get a Coyote Swap with a 10 speed, modern A/C, updated dash, sound system, brakes, new leather interior and a nice paint job and she might like it.
He sounds like a Earl Shives lol
Thats a NIIICEE rig, you're a good man, ld keep it for myself, l wouldn't even let my wife drive it..ever. lol.
Just sayin.
Not many of those around.
nice but how do you know the odometer didnt roll over
WOW !! I want one, maybe even over my 2018 Raptor 🤘🤘
