This beautiful 1977 Ford Bronco has spent the last few years as a weekend driver to the beach. The vehicle was originally purchased from California, and has only been used for light summer driving. From factory, this vehicle came equipped with a Ford Windsor V-8 302 (5.0L) and is one of 14,546 Broncos produced in 1977. The original paint code for the vehicle is Vista Orange. It now sports a fresh coat of yellow paint, and has been maintained with compound wax. The 1976 Ford Bronco brought several key improvements for the final model year first-gen Bronco. Most notably including, power assisted front disc brakes, 11 X 2.25” rear drum brakes, and the steering box ratio was shortened to 3.8 turns to lock.

The 1977 Bronco in many ways represented the best of breed, and is the truck Ford should have built several years earlier. The most notable changes for enthusiasts include the new heavy duty 9-inch rear end housing, disc brakes, power steering and electric windshield wipers. Unique to the ‘77 Bronco’s is a 14.4-gallon gas tank and an 8-gallon auxiliary tank. The most apparent exterior changes include the introduction of gas tank doors to replace the previously exterior mounted caps, and vertical mounted rear marker lights.

This Bronco is currently stored in a climate controlled indoor facility and is available for viewing 7-days a week at 2475 Fairfield Avenue, Black Rock, CT 06605.

After several attempts I am unable to post photos to this forum. When editing it shows that the photos are properly linked in the code, yet none appear. Please use the linked craigslist ad for any photo inquiries or private message me. - Alex

Pay the $12 to become a contributor to post pictures, your ad reads like a sleazy car salesman.

This newbie sounds like he has a great deal I can’t wait to see photos. I bet it will show how special this bronco is

Looks nice, but not that kind of nice.

Franko is right... what's up with the front end?

I think that just might be a result of the camera angle amplifying the normal difference between the two wheel angles when steering is turned hard. The inside wheel is always turned more than outside wheel....

The wheels are almost at full lock to showcase more of the front axel. The photo is deceptive and does not show the full angle of the body vs front tires. I assure you the wheels are in alignment and is available for test drive!

What brand of lift does it have, it is advertised as 2 tanks but I only see one.


The vehicle has a 1" body lift, Rancho 5115 Shocks, and unknown springs. It is not a solid lift, but rather rubber for a smoother ride. All bushings are in good condition.

This Bronco has the single tank option, I can send additional photos of undercarriage as well if interested.

Thanks for the clarification. Crazy optical illusion there.

For $37k, I'd expect a far better flare job. When something like that gets shorted; it raises a bunch of flags about the other work that was done.

They're not level, don't sit flat on the body (warping and no welting), and look to have been attached with sheet metal screws.

So you take a closer look at the new paint and you can see orange (original color mentioned in ad) in the engine bay (hood, wheel well, front core support, and cowl.
