Description

1979 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT 4x4 models are a favorite with enthusiasts. 1978 marked the first year of the second-generation of the Ford Bronco, which was produced for 1978 and 1979 before the body style was changed for the third generation Bronco introduced for the 1980 model year. The Bronco was no longer built on a unique chassis, but rather shared its architecture with the F-Series line of pickup trucks. As such, it shared many of the same styling cues, with a removable hard roof covering the bed and an extra set of seats.

This well-restored classic Bronco is straight and has a recent quality correct Dark Brown and White repaint that looks good for a Bronco that begs to be driven, on or off road, with character and style. The handsome Ford is equipped with factory optional front bumper guards as well as rare factory optional sliding rear slide windows for extra ventilation. Riding on a factory-correct set of five-slot forged aluminum rims wrapped in 31x10.50R15LT BF Goodrich All-Terrain A/T tires gives this Ford an aggressive look without sacrificing drivability.
