I might regret this but it's time to find a new owner for my Bronco. I bought a second project Bronco so it doesn't make sense (to my wife) to have two of them.
In short, it's a really clean Vintage Bronco with tons of new parts, that looks and drives great.
I've owned the Bronco for over 5 years, but most of the new parts were only installed within the past year or two.
I've spent over 20k in new parts, paint, etc. (with receipts for most) not including tax, shipping, and labor to install, which can cost more than twice the price of the parts.
It's geared perfectly in stop and go traffic, with no need to constantly shift. It has lots of passing power and cruises great at 65-75 on highways. It has never overheated on me, not even in heavy Los Angeles traffic.
Steers easily and no bump-steer even with the lift, drives like a normal truck.
It's also a 71, so it's exempt from CA smog checks.
This Bronco won't nickel and dime you to death like it did to me since it practically needs nothing now.
I tried to keep track of my Bronco Budget so I have a comprehensive list (4 pages) of all the new parts/prices, available upon request.
