1972 Ford Bronco that has never been touched or altered. Still has original paint on the body and top. This is solid example of an early Bronco survivor. Rust is confined to the floor boards on the driver and passenger sides, a spot on the passenger side rocker, one spot in the tub behind the drivers seat, and one place on the cowl under the hood which has been repaired (welded). The floor boards have been patched, not what I would consider fixed, which would be butt welding panels into place. An original replacement panel has been put on the passenger side floor, but held into place with screws and what appears to be duct tape. The drivers side has had 2 pieces of galvanized metal pop riveted in the creases under the brake and clutch pedals and where the fuel tank selector is located. The rust in the floor boards does not go up the sides, but is all in the flat area of the floor. There are multiple dents in the doors and on the hood, but the quarter panels, top and tail gate are in good condition. The 302 engine is tired. It does use oil and puffs some smoke between shifts. It does start easy and runs well, but is cold natured and takes a few minutes to warm up. The ride is very smooth at 55-60 mph. Standard bakes work well, but the manual steering makes you appreciate power assist. The only two options are 302 V8 and the auxiliary fuel tank. There was never a radio. I have put about 200 miles on this survivor since I acquired it along with 2 more early Broncos. I've decided to sell this one because I'm not a big fan of the "uncut" rear fenders and this one is too nice to cut up, and I do not need 3 Broncos.
