1971 Ford Bronco - VIN U15GLM06190

 We have available this excellent example of a restored 1971 Bronco.  Over several years this Bronco was restored to original but with safety upgrades.  The uncut body was removed and resprayed the original color with new upholstery added.   The body is straight and rust free.   All window glass is unblemished and chip free.  Mechanically the drive line is sound from the fully rebuilt engine onward including a good clutch, fully synchronized transmission, transfer case and quiet final drive with Warn hubs.  Front steering linkage, shocks, suspension bushings, ball joints, body mounts and springs have been renewed.  Four-wheel disk brakes have been added as a critical safety upgrade and bring the truck to a stop quickly.  It is an immaculate example of the Bronco with a few thousand road miles (none off road) since the complete restoration.

The correct paint is all new and blemish free.  All badges,  trim and lights are in excellent condition. Inspection will show that all instruments (ammeter, fuel - switchable to both tanks, oil pressure and temperature) and the radio work.  A new set of auxiliary gauges has been added for accurate readings (oil pressure, voltage, coolant temperature).  New tires and hoses have been installed.   Overall, the idea of this restoration was to remove after market add ons done by others (e.g., lift kit) while restoring to factory configurations with key safety related improvements only.

Further recent work is detailed in a full set of receipts available to the serious bidder by request to the seller.
