Vehicle Detail

Hi, Thanks for looking at my auction. This is a 1971 Ford Bronco Sport that has been garage kept and is great shape with a dry history living in Las Vegas Nevada for 43 years. I am the 3rd owner and have been continuing the restoration process here and there since I have owned it. I wanted to keep the original look of this Bronco so I upgraded some things that were better than stock. It now has two new fuel tanks w/ sending units, both tank straps, fuel filler hose, fuel pump, plugs, wiring, oil pressure sender, Silicone heater hose kit, coolant recovery bottle w/ stainless holder Edelbrock air cleaner w/ chrome covers, battery, pigtail voltage regulator, alternator harness, battery terminals, Warn cables, battery tray w/ holder, Amsoil high performance 10/40 synthetic motor oil w/Amsoil 25,000 mile oil filter, fuel lines with a new tuned Holley 570 avenger 4 barrel carb. Ethanol dissolves metal and creates a bunch of issues when is sits for a period of time. The next part that I wanted to tackle was the Clutch and Drive Train which included new 11 inch Luk clutch, pressure plate, bolt kit, new fly wheel, roller pilot bearing, stainless (adjustable) push rod, clutch rod (metal) bushings that do not bind, new complete rear drive shaft, new transfer case yolk, new 304 stainless twin stick transfer case shifters for T type model 20 transfer case (works better than stock), new transfer case seals, 2 new turbo mufflers, fresh gear oil replacement, 8 new JBG shocks w/red shock boots, BDS steering stabilizer, new front brakes, front hubs repacked, 5 stock rims stripped and then powder coated, 4 like new hub caps, new chrome lugs and 4 new Bridgestone 30x9.50x15 A/T Duelers less 1000 miles and front end alignment about 200 miles ago Now I will get into some of the cosmetics that were done along the way which include newly recovered front and rear seat w/ new foam buns for the 2 front seats, rebuilt Unity spot light (new hand assembly), 6 new LED bulbs in dash instruments, new LED tag bulb, new dash brake light, new front seat belts (Air craft quality), new grill badges, stainless license plate frame, (kept original), 2 Billet aluminum fuel caps, (kept originals), stainless tailgate handle assembly w/ gaskets, (kept original), stainless jack strap, (kept original), stainless hood safety latch w/bolts, front and rear show quality stock bumpers w/stainless bumper bolts, park and tail light gaskets, used heater intake hose, powder coated tire carrier & tire mount, stainless carrier plate w/wingnut & latch guard, stainless carrier latch guard loop, poly turn signal bases, new passenger side mirror w/ gaskets, hood adjusting bumpers. I was curious with the unique history of this vintage 71 Bronco and found that it first owned by the owners of the oldest steak house in Las Vegas Nevada called Bob Taylors Original Ranch House restaurant. It is now called the Golden Steer restaurant which was purchased in 1980. The second owner worked with the owners of that restaurant and purchased it after the restaurant was sold in which I was told that many of the movie stars of that time went because it was a hide away from star seekers. There is history that I thought was neat when the 2nd owner told me to google it. The horse shoe was left on the floor board from the original owners and that's why I left it there. In closing on this vintage 71 Bronco runs fantastic and motor was a previous rebuild from previous owner. This Bronco has power steering that was added on but still seem to wander even after a front end alignment has been done. The paint is very nice but has some garage scratches on passenger side area and around driver side mirror. It has no dents except in the trim areas that can be seen in photos. The floor I left unfinished because I was not sure whether to Rhino coat it or paint it. Did not want to hide nothing. It has never been cut and is ready to be finished inside. It had the vinyl lining that created the surface rust. It had air conditioning at one time but it was removed. This Bronco was under coated from the factory. The top is like new. I have the original owners manual and The 71 OEM Ford shop manuals from dealer as pictured. I welcome inspection for this Bronco if needed under my supervision. I can be reached at 336-635-4345 if you need to ask some questions. I could not load all pictures that I took but I have more if needed. Hope you enjoy!

The rear end is a Ford 9 inch Posi and the front is a Dana 44 limited slip. Thanks
