302-Powered 1971 Ford Bronco Project

1971 Ford Bronco Additional Info:

This 1971 Ford Bronco wagon underwent a partial refurbishment under previous ownership, which was continued by my father following his 2023 purchase. Unfortunatelly, he is now in a medical condition that doesn't allow him to work on it anymore, so he decided to sell. It is powered by a replacement 302ci V8 linked to a three-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. It wears a repaint in gray over black vinyl and features a Holley carburetor, a suspension lift, power-assisted front disc brakes, power steering, manually locking front hubs, a removable hardtop, front bucket seats, and a roll bar. The engine was said to have been refurbished under previous ownership, and the power steering box and front disc brakes were installed, and the front floor pans were replaced under current ownership. This Bronco is a running and driving project that will need some additional mechanical and cosmetic work, and it is now offered with shop manuals and spare parts.
The truck left the factory finished in Swiss Aqua and was repainted its current shade of gray under previous ownership. Exterior features include a removable hardtop, a swing-away tire carrier, a roll bar, and dual side mirrors. Improper glass has been installed in the side windows, which makes it difficult to close them once they are rolled down.
The 15″ alloy wheels are wrapped in 31×10.50″ Firestone Destination tires. A Borgeson power steering box has been installed, and additional features include manually locking front hubs, a suspension lift, and power-assisted front disc brakes. The emergency brake has not been installed.
The cabin features front bucket seats and a rear bench trimmed in black vinyl, and amenities include lap belts, crank windows, and a cabin heater. The front floor pans were replaced under prior ownership, and there is rust damage to the rear floor pan.
Instrumentation includes a 100-mph speedometer encircled by auxiliary gauges for voltage, fuel level, coolant temperature, and oil pressure. A set of gauges is mounted to the underside of the dashboard. The five-digit odometer shows 1,100 miles, approximately 200 of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 302ci V8 was said to have been refurbished during previous ownership, and it features a Holley carburetor. A Magnaflow muffler has also been installed.
Power is sent to the rear or all four wheels through a three-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. The rear driveshaft has been replaced. There is an oil leak at the bell housing.
