"Barn Find” from Odessa. Texas. An older couple towed this Bronco behind their RV. so many of the miles may be towing. Once I obtained it I had the local Bronco Restoration shop get rid of all the leaks and make this a safe driver. All new gaskets were installed and the head was machined. and the engined tuned. The block. piston. rings etc were all left alone and are original. The exhaust had a leak. so new exhaust was installed. The transmission was cleaned. inspected. and resealed with new clutches. band. nbsp;modulator. This motor does not leak and runs like a new engine. The suspension was replaced with a top of the line 2. 5” Bilstein suspension w/trac bar & Pitman arm. stroppe slot us mag wheels. and 33x10. 5x15 BFG Mud T/A’s including spare. Headlamps and front running light lenses were replaced. (factory clear ones available if preferred). All upgrades were simple bolt ons and buyer could take it back to 100% original very easily if desired. There is very light surface rust here and there. . . but if you looked at old broncos . . . this is as rust free as you will ever find unless vehicle has gone though complete frame off restoration. Front fender lips remain. You can even see factory markings on the frame. thats how clean this is. Houndstooth is almost perfect with a slight imperfection on the drivers seat. As far as flaws . . . the windshield has a couple of marks. the turn signal cancel need replaced (part included). the steering wheel is cracked as is the front bolster. There are pits in the paint from being towed behind an RV. A couple of small dings. but no rust can be seen on painted body panels from exterior and all panels are solid originals. To be perfect the Bronco will need repainted as only drivetrain has been restored. Drive it and use it as is or paint it and turn it into a $50k+ Bronco! I have included a driving video of the Bronco being taken for its first drive of the season out of winter storage (in heated garage). The paint needs proper wash and detail and I did not have time before posting. Marti Report is also attached. Thank you for looking at this unique Bronco.
