This 1977 Ford Bronco was acquired by the seller in 2012, and subsequent work reportedly included body repairs as well as installation of new fender flares, springs, shocks, 5:13.1 differential gears, and other items. Power is from a 302ci V8 mated to a C4 automatic transmission and a two-speed transfer-case. Service in the last two months consisted of carburetor and timing adjustments, replacement of the water pump, an oil change, and leak repairs.
The truck is finished in faded copper and features a white removable hardtop as well as aftermarket fender flares.
The truck is lifted on replacement shocks and springs, and the rear fenders have been cut to clear 33.5″x10.5″ BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain KM2 tires mounted on 15″ steel wheels. Braking is from a hydroboost setup with front discs and rear drums.
The interior features a pair of bucket seats upholstered in aged white vinyl with textured insets, pebbled vinyl floor coverings, and a white dashboard with a locking glove compartment. Additional equipment includes a column shifter for the transmission, a tunnel shifter for the transfer case, and an aftermarket air conditioner.
A two-spoke steering wheel frames a combination gauge with a 100-mph speedometer as well as readouts for charging, fuel level, coolant temperature, and oil pressure. The five-digit odometer shows just under 17k miles, with total mileage unknown.
The 302ci V8 is said to have been rebuilt in 2012 and included a .030″ overbore and adjusting the valves, as well as installing a high performance camshaft and pistons, bearings, main and rod bearings, valve guides, and seals. Additional features include aftermarket headers feeding a dual exhaust system and service performed in summer 2020 reportedly included alleviating several oil leaks, as well as carburetor and timing adjustments, replacement of the water pump, and an oil change.
Power is routed to the rear or all four wheels through a three-speed C4 automatic transmission and a dual-range transfer case. The front and rear differentials are said to have fitted with 5:13.1 gears, and a new rear U-joint has been installed.
