History: 1976 Ford Bronco--Restored-- Equipped with Power Disk Brakes, Power Steering, Automatic Transmission, Hard Doors and Hard Top. The 302 motor was completely rebuilt and bored .30 over, with picture documentation. It has all new pistons, bearings, seals, gaskets, oil pump, fuel pump, water pump, alternator, thermostat, custom aluminum hoses, radiator fan, new Edelbrock chrome intake, Edelbrock 4 barrell chrome carburetor, chrome brake booster and master cylinder, new overflow and the list goes on. The engine compartment was base coated and clear coated with the engine out with PPG paint and the underside of the Bronco was sprayed with a undercoating for preservation. The Transmission while it was out was completely gone through checked out and reassembled with new gaskets, filter, etc. Both axles were completely taken out, taken apart, treated with Ospho, primed, and painted with high end paint. While the front axle was apart we replaced seals, bushings, fluid, drag arm bushings and new brake pads and calipers. The rear axle has new seals, brake shoes and fluid. We ran all new brake lines with proportioning valve. We also replaced the front and rear drive shaft u-joints. The frame of the truck was sanded down with 100 grit, 220 grit and then finished with 320 grit sandpaper before we sparyed it with a 3M Under Paint for preservation. We installed all new body bushings bolts, lock washers and nuts. It has a nice 2 1/2 inch suspension lift with all new painted parts and Grade 8 bolts. Brand new shocks, steering stabilizer and boots, new bumpers were also installed. We installed Brand New Sport King AT 32x11.50x15 tires sitting on brand new 15x8 American Racing Wheels that were static balanced with only inner weights installed. The inside of the Bronco was sanded down any metal that needed to be replaced was replaced, then it was sprayed with Ospho then Rhino Lined for preservation and durability. The front and rear seats are original Bronco seats that we had re-cushioned and re-upholstered by a local custom upholstery shop. We also had them recover the dash pad with a high end very durable leather that just stands out and looks phenomenal. The dash was completely taken apart and painted Wimbledon White out of the vehicle then re-installed. We do not tape the dash off and paint it as the finish product is half baked and unprofessional. All light, turn signals, gauges function properly. We installed a new Grant chrome and black steering wheel. We installed a weatherproof cd player and speakers with remote for your enjoyment. The doors were taken apart and the panels were painted Wimbledon White and doors put together with all new door handles inside and out, new armrest, new mirrors, new door cups, new felt around windows, new door hinges and bolts. Stainless and grade 8 bolts were used wherever possible. All new complete weather seals were installed around the doors and inside the door window tracks and under the hard top. We also had the front windshield and gasket replaced. The outside of the truck was completely sanded down to bare metal, any and all rust was treated and fixed. We then primed the body and re-seam sealed all the seams on the truck and completely smoothed out body to above original factory standards and then painted it Torch Red using PPG paint. Then the body was wet sanded from 1,000 grit to 2,000 grit then to 3,000 grit sandpaper then high speed buffed and polished to a beautiful finish. Their were (4) coats of clear coat put on this truck. The hard top was taken off sanded down prepped and treated for any rust, and painted Wimbledon White using PPG paint and wet sanded out to 2,000 grit sandpaper and then high speed buffed.All new gaskets on hard top too.
