“The original 1966 Ford Bronco is an iconic, cult classic vehicle, and we’ve created a modern, one-of-a-kind version with the WD-40/SEMA Cares Boosted Bronco,” said builder Aaron Vaccar. “WD-40 Brand is an industry icon, with a long history of supporting automotive professionals with products that help us get the job done right, and were an integral part of getting the Bronco ready for the SEMA Show.”

The WD-40/SEMA Cares Boosted Bronco retains its original four-wheel drive, but gets a modern spin with its hand-built 20” Detroit Steel Wheels, Diode Dynamics Bi-LED round headlights and Distinctive Industries touring seats and upholstery. From its WD-40-themed matte-metallic paint, to its twin turbo V6 EcoBoost powered drivetrain, everything about the vehicle stands out.

The WD-40 Brand booth, #62129, visitors can see the restoration in addition to learning about the various uses for WD-40.

The WD-40/SEMA Cares Boosted Bronco will be auctioned off at Barrett-Jackson Auction Company with proceeds benefitting SEMA Cares, Childhelp and the SEMA Memorial Scholarship Fund at a later date. Build partners for the project included: AIRAID, AMSOIL, AutoMeter, B&M, BASF, Baumann Electronic Controls, Blood & Grease, Detroit Steel Wheel, Diode Dynamics, Flowmaster, General Tire, Grip Royal, Mishimoto, POR-15, The Club, VMS Racing and XS Power.
