1971 Ford Bronco A-List Celebrity Owned Beauty, EXCELLENT INVESTMENT, in my opinion. This gorgeous vehicle was previously owned by an extremely well known & world famous academy award winning A-List Celebrity Actress. This person will not be named here for privacy reasons. This information is fully verifiable and documented. I am privileged to have the opportunity to list this vehicle for sale. This is absolutely a rare opportunity at an VERY COLLECTIBLE Classic FORD Bronco. Runs and drives well, very fun vehicle. Beginning in 2010, this vehicle has undergone a very nice beautification/restoration and upgrading of many systems. There has been very light usage during that time, under 3,000 miles which is documented. Total mileage on the truck since 1972 appears to be 96,998. Currently registered with tags til June of 2013. The Ford 302 engine runs well and has the original air cleaner, rebuilt original 2 barrel carburetor, original 2 barrel intake manifold, new water pump, new billet aluminum pulleys, new HEI electronic distributor (no points to change), New ignition wires, new belts. This is believed to be the original engine block. A nice sounding dual exhaust system was installed with all new pipe and new mufflers. Pipes go all the way out to the rear bumper to minimize exhaust fumes. A Certified ASE Master Technician installed: NEW POWER STEERING BOX (TOMS BRONCO PARTS), NEW POWER STEERING PUMP, NEW custom fabricated POWER STEERING SHAFT (From Tom’s Bronco parts, with Borgeson Joint). Also has a remanufactured alternator, new voltage regulator, new radiator cap. The certified ASE mechanic also installed a new heavy duty clutch disk, pressure plate, and throwout bearing. A floor shifter from Tom’s Bronco Parts was installed for the standard three speed transmission. This is a new Hurst unit, with new boot, Hurst ball, diamond plate cover, and all new internals. This was a big improvement over the original three on the tree shifter. The Axle in the rear is the 9” factory ford unit. Front axle is the larger Dana 44. POWER BRAKES The brakes on this vehicle were fully redone, with new POWER brake booster from Tom’s Bronco with new master cylinder, new bracket and installation hardware, new vacuum hose, new brake lines and hoses. Drums were replaced, all shoes, and hardware kits were installed with new springs, etc. Rear axle seals have been replaced, along with the axle bearings. The rear 3rd member seal was also replaced with a new pinion bearing and seal. New shocks at all four wheels. New front suspension C bushings, Radius Arm bushings, and track bar bushings. New front and rear fuel tanks. New floor selector valve for fuel gauges. The Upholstery/Interior has been fully redone and upgraded. Original front lowback bucket seats were reupholstered with new foam padding. Passenger seat still has original swivel brackets. Rear seat was reupholstered completely. (name of celebrity was also written under the base of this seat). Full carpet was installed with drivers side heelpad, all the way to the tailgate. New side panels were made and installed for the rear quarter interior area. New front door panels were also made, with recovered armrests, new door ‘cups.’ Has visors and wiper motor cover. The VIN tags are intact in the glove box door and on the drivers rear door pillar. New door weatherstrip. Inside of top has faded original white paint. Grant GT steering wheel with working horn. Rollbar installed inside. New tailgate weatherstrip. New liftgate chrome handle. Original radio installed in dash (nonop) The paint job was new 3 years ago. It is still shiny and nice but does have some small scratches/imperfections on close inspection. It is a deep ruby red and gets many compliments. During the repaint, the front floors and rocker panels were replaced with correct, welded in components. The hardtop exterior was repainted in the original shade of white. A power hoist is included with the bronco which facilitates hardtop removal, you can do it by yourself once the hoist is installed in your garage. The engine bay was painted in red basecoat clearcoat, grill was painted argent. Side trim was replaced new, including Bronco Sport emblems, side marker lenses, new fender flares from Bushwacker with rubber welting, new chrome headlight rings, new urethane signal bases with new lenses, new chrome and red grill letters, new chrome bumpers front and rear, new stainless license plate bracket, new taillight bezels. The speedy looking custom wheels are new alloy slotted mags made in a limited quantity and no longer available to my knowledge. The tires are Adventuro GT Radials with a mud terrain tread. This is a really nice running and driving bronco. It is not perfect but is obviously well dressed and is a profoundly collectible vehicle, given its former ownership by a respected celebrity who is known world wide. To purchase this vehicle, please bid. After meeting the reserve, please email your contact information. Balance is to be paid in full within 5 business days of auction close. Your bid is a contract and will be treated as such. To make a reasonable offer, please email with your contact phone number. This vehicle is sold strictly on an as is basis, without warranty oral written express implied of fitness or otherwise. This is a pre owned vehicle from the 20th Century. In my opinion, it drives very easy and performs well but it is not a new car and is not 100% restored, nor is it 100% perfect. If you wish to do an inspection, they are to be performed before the auction ends, not after. Vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction if the right offer comes through before auction ends. Celebrity vehicles often have a very significant increased value over non celebrity owned. Do a search for celebrity owned vehicle values.
