1995 Ford Bronco Eddie Bauer

The Ford Bronco is a model line of sport utility vehicles manufactured and marketed by Ford.  The first SUV model developed by the company; five generations of the Bronco were sold from the 1966 to 1996 model years.  A sixth generation of the model line has reemerged for the 2021 model year.  Originally developed as a compact off-road vehicle using its own chassis, the Bronco initially competed against the Jeep CJ-5 and International Harvester Scout.  For 1978, Ford enlarged the Bronco, making it a short-wheelbase version of the F-Series pickup truck; the full-size Bronco competed against the K5 Blazer and Ramcharger.   Following a decline in demand for large two-door SUVs, Ford discontinued the Bronco after the 1996 model year, replacing it with the four-door Expedition; followed by the larger Excursion. 

For consignment, a well cared for and meticulously maintained truck, well a station wagon.  A 1996 Ford Bronco in Deep Forest Green Metallic over Light Santa Fe Metallic and we have a real visual winner that would make even O.J. Simpson proud.  Purchased and enjoyed by our consignor as a weekend vehicle, but now due to him moving and the truck being kept back at home, it's time to pass the capable SUV on.  Sporting freshly redone brake lines, relatively low miles, (99,543), and a beautiful yet functional new leather interior, this SUV is ready to handle whatever mountains you may want to climb and even has ample room so you can bring all your unmentionables on the trek.  

Exterior
Very clean and a good paint job covered with Light Santa Fe Metallic rockers and optional step built in under rocker, on this 2-door Eddie Bauer edition.  The upper body is dipped in a miles deep coating of Deep Forest Green Metallic and shows very nicely, but not without a few rust bubbles on the rear wheel lip arches.  A  slightly faded tan metal top is installed, and what many people don't realize is this top is still removable, albeit requiring many a T40 tamper proof Torx bit.  Badging and chrome is correct and in excellent condition.  Raised outline white letter knobby 265/75R15 Cooper Discoverer AT3 rubber from the 33rd week of 2020 is on all 4 corners and wraps large chromed wheels with locking hubs.  A swing away spare is behind the tailgate which has a power window.

Interior
2 overstuffed newly recovered leather Medium Mocha buckets flank a large center console with a glove box large enough to almost fit a small suitcase!   A leather rear bench which will fold down expanding the already spacious cargo area is installed behind the buckets. The driver's bucket has a powered lumber support and none of the leather is showing even minor wear from careful usage.  Up front, the dash setup is standard Ford fare with warm mocha plastic with black inserts.  An aftermarket JVC AM/FM/CD/Bluetooth/Pandora capable stereo has been installed.  Power windows, power mirror, and power locks are noted by their buttons in the doors.  Cruise control is on the steering wheel.  Good quality carpeting, in tan color, is covering the floor.

Drivetrain
The original 5.8 Liter 351ci V8 with an automatic E40D 4-speed transmission attached is under the OEM hood.  Putting power to the ground are 3.55 limited slip axle assemblies both front and rear.

Undercarriage
Clean, some surface rust showing on the suspension components and heavy scale surface rust is noted on some supports behind the rear wheels.  Coil springs and radius arms for the front long with leaf springs on the rear provide the ride.   Freshly redone brake lines are seen for the front power disc and rear power drum brakes to give us stopping power while a stock style single exhaust system with a Flowmaster muffler sends spent fossils out the back of this SUV.  A hitch package has been installed, and it appears heavy duty.

Drivability
I needed a short step stool to climb into this truck, a sharp mind but terrible knees here, and I was greeted with mid 90's Ford comfort.  Performance was adequate on all fronts and all functions were working splendidly. 

A well preserved SUV with fastidious maintenance, low miles and very little rust.  It has good gaps, few faults, it does not appear as a 28 year old vehicle.  Well cared for and runs nicely with plenty of power if you want to hook something fun up to it.  This one won't last!!!
