A Legacy Overland Refinement of a Fresh Restoration

Every so often, a classic arrives already wearing fresh paint and new parts—clearly loved, earnestly restored, yet missing that last layer of polish and craftsmanship that transforms a good truck into a truly exceptional one. Project Moulton, a beautifully revived 1968 Ford Bronco, came to Legacy Overland in exactly that state. The soul was there, the work was mostly done, but the details—the things that make a classic Bronco feel cohesive, reliable, and correct—still needed attention.

Refined Execution

Our task wasn’t to rebuild Moulton. It was to perfect it. To take the foundation laid by its prior restoration and bring it up to Legacy Overland standards of drivability, reliability, fitment, and finish.This meant untying electrical knots hidden behind new panels. Correcting a heating and AC system that was plumbed but not functional. Replacing an exhaust that looked the part but didn’t perform or fit the way it should. And crafting a hand-built soft top—created from custom molds—to replace an aftermarket unit that simply didn’t honor the Bronco’s iconic proportions.

Today, Moulton stands as a refined example of what a first-generation Bronco should be: honest, simple, mechanical, and now—finally—finished the right way.
