Some say the 2nd generation is better than the 1st for reasons of experience and ability to correct subpar issues. In the Automotive world the changes and engineering that takes place throughout a build is always impressive and as the best manufactures know, the best survive. The 2nd generation Bronco with a much larger frame, body and powertrain was a no brainer for Ford when they developed this monster of the two-track.
We are very excited to bring this car to the retail world for just the 2nd time in its life cycle. This 1979 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT has just come out of a long term ownership collection here in Michigan and is just about perfect. The fit and finish all around the outside is remarkable and once you climb up into this cab you will fall in love with the blue tweed cloth interior and wood dash. This is a true time capsule and anyone that drove or lusted over these vehicles back in the day will automatically have an LSD flashback. You just cannot reproduce this material and the reproductions just don't have the same feel or look. This truck starts up with ease and immediately you will get noticed in this Bronco. It runs thru all gears with ease and is a joy to drive around town or up to highway speeds.
This car is just about as original as you can get for the exception of the 4in lift and the 35in tires. It has been stored properly and recently received a new fuel pump, new avenger carb and radiator fixed for some pin hole leaks.
