1977 Ford Bronco Additional Info:
Body- original light jade paint. It has some patina as one would expect and is Very solid. Absolutely zero bondo or filler. The tailgate does have one spot in the bottom that will need repaired (see pictures). No issues with windshield frame, floorboards, doors or hood. Doors have that crisp "ping" sound when you shut them.The door weatherstripping and back hatch are worn and could probably stand to be replaced, but still seals up fine for the time being. The bolts for the inner to out fender have been replaced with stainless, but the fenders are original.There are a couple of small dents to the chrome trim and body on driver's side rear and to the bottom of driver door, but could easily be fixed (shown in pics). I have a piece of chrome trim to replace the one that is damaged. The gas tank skid plate has a small rust hole in it, but works as it should. The door posts and tire rack mount have been painted with POR 15 by previous owner to prevent future rust from occurring, it isn't hiding anything. The original owner used seam sealer between the bedseams to prevent rust and is barely noticeable.
Drivetrain- original 302 with 82,200 original miles and original C-4 automatic transmission and dana 20 transfer case. Original front and rear axles with 3.50 ratio gears. It has factory quick ratio steering that works effortlessly and factory manual brakes that work great, as does the E-brake. The transmission has a minor leak from the bottom pan, but isn't enough to use fluid or drip onto the ground. It is equipped with one gas tank from the factory. It starts and runs like the day it rolled off the assembly line and tracks straight down the highway.
Interior- original seats in good condition, seat belts, has full carpet although I am unsure if this was a factory option or not. The carpet passenger kick panel is worn and can be removed or replaced. The steering wheel has a couple cracks and it needs the horn button pushed back in or replaced.
Electrical- headlights, turn signals, wipers, horn, and lights works great; radio not currently working, could be a fuse or loose wire. I haven't had time to investigate.
This Original Bronco isn't perfect, but could be quite easily. I also have the original hubcaps to go with it. The tires are all season 215/75/15 and are almost brand new. It also has the original jack and handle in the engine bay as it should and is ready to drive. I would keep it, but I cant bring myself to modify this original one for the upgrades I want to make and need to finish my other one. Everything I have described should be visible in the pictures, but I am happy to send videos or additional pictures if desired.I drive this often to work so the mileage may go up slightly until I sell it. This Bronco is pickup only in Scott Depot, WV or shipping can be arranged by buyer.
