1978 FORD BRONCO CUSTOM

Ford Bronco 1978 Description

SO HEAR IT IS, AM GOING TO ATTEMPT TO COVER EVERYTHING ON THIS BRONCO, LEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE, ND I WILL ANSWER THE BEST OF MY ABILITY.

THIS IS A 1978 FORD BRONCO CUSTOM. A LOT HAS BEEN DONE TO THIS TRUCK, UT KEEP IN MIND, TS BEEN OVER A PERIOD OF ABOUT 3-4 YEARS, UT THIS TRUCK IS VERY RARELY DRIVEN, ND AS YOU CAN SEE, EALLY NICE. I ALSO HAVE 3 OF THESE THAT I HAVE BEEN RESTORING, O SOME THINGS MAY RUN TOGETHER IN MY MIND ON WHAT HAS BEEN DONE TO WHAT. I DO PREFER THAT IF YOU ARE CAPABLE TO COME SEE THE TRUCK FOR YOURSELF, S I DON'T INTEND, R WANT TO DISAPPOINT THE POTENTIAL BUYER. I HAVE SEEN PEOPLE OVERBID ITEMS TO BE DISAPPOINTED. THIS IS A GOOD SOLID HONEST 6500-7000 DOLLAR TRUCK. I CAN'T IMAGINE A PERSON LOOSING MONEY AT THAT PRICE. I PROBABLY HAVE ABOUT 12K IN IT. THERE IS STILL WORK TO DO IF YOU WANTED A SHOW QUALITY TRUCK. THERE IS NOT MUCH TO DO FOR A DAILY DRIVER, ND ALL AROUND FUN RIDE. I HAVE SPENT THE LAST WEEK TRYING TO FINE TUNING EVERYTHING. THIS TRUCK RUNS VERY NICE, UT SHE DOES POP THROUGH THE CARBURETOR WHEN YOU SHOWER DOWN ON HER. I AM NO EDLEBROCK GUY, DONT KNOW HOW TO ADJUST OUT THE JETTING OR ACCELERATOR PUMP. IF YOU CAN MANAGE THIS PROJECT, OU WILL CORRECT THE POPPING.

ENGINE WORK: VALVE COVER GASKETS, IL PAN GASKET, RANSMISSION PAN GASKET (THE SEAL AROUND THE SHIFTER IS LEAKING NOW), RAKE BOOSTER, ASTER CYLINDER, ELTS, OWER STEERING PUMP. THESE ITEMS WERE DONE WHEN I PURCHASED THE TRUCK.

CARBURETOR, IR FILTER, EATER HOSES, LECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE, OMPLETE TUNE UP. THESE ITEMS WERE DONE THIS YEAR.

THIS ENGINE HAS HEADERS ON IT, ND THE FLANGE OF THE HEADERS DO NOT SEAL WELL AROUND THE EXHAUST PIPE. IF I KEPT THE TRUCK, WOULD EITHER HAVE THE EXHAUST COMPLETELY REDONE, R WELD THE FLANGES. I DON'T WANT TO WELD THE FLANGES NOW, O THE BUYER CAN MAKE THEIR OWN DECISION ON HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM.

COSMETIC WORK: THE OWNER BEFORE ME INSTALLED PRETTY MUCH ALL NEW RUBBER AND GASKETS RELATING TO DOOR SEALS AND WINDOW SEALS. THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR SEAL HAS FALLEN OFF, UT I HAVE A NEW DOOR SEAL TO BE INSTALLED. HE ALSO DYNOMATED THE WHOLE INSIDE, NSTALLED NEW JEWT, ND CARPET, ND A HEAD LINER. THE CENTER WOOD CONSOLE IS HOMEMADE, ND DOUBLES AS A SUB WOLFER BOX, HE STEREO IS VERY NICE SOUNDING. ALSO INSTALLED WERE LED BACKLIT GAUGE PANEL, ND LED INTERIOR LIGHTS. THE FRONT SEAT BELTS ARE NEW AS WELL. KEEP IN MIND THESE ITEMS ARE ALL ABOUT 4 YEARS OLD, O ITS NOT RECENTLY INSTALLED NEW, UT ITS STILL NICE, HE SEALS ARE STILL GOOD. THIS TRUCK IS FOR THE MOST PART IS BARN AND GARAGE KEPT.

THE FRAME OF THIS TRUCK IS REALLY GREASY AND OILY, S WHEN I PURCHASED IT, THINK ANYTHING THAT HAD OIL PRETTY WELL LEAKED. I HAVE RAISED IT ON A LIFT A FEW TIMES TO DEGREASE AND CLEAN IT, UT IT IS TOUGH BAKED ON STUFF. THE GOOD NEW IS, LL THE OIL HAS PRESERVED EVERYTHING, ND AS IT CLEANS UP, HE STEEL IS IN GREAT SHAPE. THE OIL AND ALSO AGE, AS THE BODY BUSHINGS, ND OTHER BUSHINGS BREAKING DOWN. I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF PURCHASING ALL NEW BUSHINGS TO DO A FRAME OFF. I WILL INCLUDE A NEW BODY BUSHING KIT, UT I HAVE YET TO PURCHASE THE OTHER BUSHINGS. IF I REMEMBER RIGHT, HAVE DONE ALL NEW BRAKES, UT DON'T HOLD ME TO THAT PART, S I OWN A LOT OF VEHICLES, ND IT SEEMS I DO BRAKES ABOUT ONCE A MONTH.

EVERYTHING WORKS TODAY, IGHTS, AUGES (FUEL GAUGE IS INTERMITTENT), IGNALS, ACK GLASS GOES DOWN GOOD, EEDS LOVE TO GET IT UP, WHEEL DRIVE, RANSMISSION SHIFTS SMOOTH. I SAY WORKS TODAY, ECAUSE SHE'S AN OLD TRUCK, OMORROW, OMETHING MAY NOT WORK.

THE TIRES ARE OLD, ND HAVE SOME CRACKING, UT THE TREAD IS IN GREAT SHAPE. I MENTION THIS BECAUSE I KNOW TIRES, ND I KNOW OLD TIRES WILL FALL APART. I WOULD RECOMMEND NEW TIRES IF YOU INTEND TO PUT HER ON THE HIGHWAY. I LIVE IN THE COUNTRY, ND ON A LARGE PIECE OF LAND. WE PRETTY MUCH WOULD DRIVE HER AROUND THE LAND, ND TO THE NEIGHBORS, ND JUST AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

I HAVE A NEW UNDERDASH A/C SYSTEM THAT I WILL INCLUDE, ND A FACTORY COMPRESSOR THAT IS USED. I MAKE NO GUARANTEES ON THE COMPRESSOR WORKING, UT IT DOES SPIN NICE, ND SEEMS TO BUILD PRESSURE.

I HAD TO ADD A MILAGE TO THE LISTING, O I PUT THE MILAGE IN AS THE ODOMETER READING. I TRUELY DONT KNOW IF ITS BEEN ROLLED.
