O.J. Simpson White Ford: Now For Rent, Simpson’s Ford Bronco Still Famous After 20 Years

O.J. Simpson White Ford is now available for rent, and not just for simple vacation trips, but interestingly, it can now be rented for parties. It may be uncommon for someone to rent O.J. Simpson White Ford for parties, but apparently, the new owner of the O.J. Simpson White Ford receives about 10 rent requests a year.

A 2012 Vanity Fair report says that the vehicle is now available for rent on parties.

According to Daily Digest News, O.J. Simpson White Ford was bought by a private collector after the infamous car chase trial of O.J. Simpson. The private collector, Michael Pulwer, reportedly paid $75,000 for the O.J. Simpson White Ford.

20 years have passed since O.J. Simpson went to jail for a 2007 armed robbery case. But O.J. Simpson White Ford is now more famous than its owner, and it seems to be making more money as well.

According to USA Today, O.J. Simpson White Ford has been purchased by private collector Michael Pulwer for $75,000 post O.J. Simpson 1997 civil trial.

Pulwer said in a New York Daily News interview, "It's well taken care of. It's not on the street." He added that he gets an estimated five to 10 requests a year from people who want to rent the car.

It was on Jun. 17, 1994 that O.J. Simpson White Ford became famous. The Los Angeles Times reports that the vehicle was followed by police cars and the chase has strangely attracted the attention of people who cheered on and waved from overpasses and ramps.

The media covered the chase and aired it nonstop until O.J. Simpson was captured. The coverage of the O.J. Simpson White Ford chase left many Americans stuck to their seats for hours. USA Today reports that O.J. Simpson White Ford garnered roughly 95 million TV viewers as it sped along a Los Angeles highway being chased by cops.

Todd Zuercher, a Bronco enthusiast and editor of Bronco Driver Magazine, told USA TODAY Network, "It was one of those very rare moments when the Bronco really was in the spotlight of the general public."

Because of the car model's popularity, Bronco enthusiasts reportedly still hope that one day, models like the O.J. Simpson White Ford will be back on the market.

O.J. Simpson White Ford however, still isn't reported to have had plans of being brought back.
